Theo's words were cold. He seemed to treat marriage and career as mere negotiations and collaborations. And my request for a divorce and resignation felt like sacrificing a promising future to him.
"Sign it."
My lower abdomen ached and I forced myself to say two words, fighting the discomfort.
Alexa felt uneasy when she saw Theo's reluctance to sign.
"Serena, I don't mean to take Theo or Elio, but you're too narrow-minded as a woman. I'm looking at my own child. Is that illegal?"
Elio pouted and hugged Alexa tightly, staring at me defensively.
"Dad, don't have her anymore. Only Dad and Mommy Alexa are my family! She's not!"
Elio casually picked up the pen holder on the table and threw it at me. I dodged it. But as I moved, a sharp, cramping pain ripped through my lower body.
My leg felt a little cold and I looked down and saw blood gushing out.
"Ah!"
A scream echoed in my ears and my vision went black as I collapsed to the ground.
The assistant outside rushed in and quickly called 122.
"122? This is the 25th floor of blue corporation Building. Someone just had an miscariage and is experiencing abnormal lower body bleeding..."
Standing in shock, Theo felt his legs go numb. He grabbed the secretary's assistant's arm and asked in disbelief, "What did you say? She had an miscariage? She's pregnant?"
He stumbled back a few steps, looking at me, unconscious on the ground, his heart choking.
