After one or two rings, the cold mechanical voice on the phone gradually turned into a busy tone.

I gritted my teeth and directly called the ambulance.

The severe pain was unbearable. I fainted directly.

When I woke up again, the unpleasant smell of disinfectant filled my nose.

I turned my head to see Ian looking at me with a gloomy expression.

He was surrounded by deep anger, seemingly ready to strangle me at any moment.

When he saw me awake, his eyes moved slightly.

He was wrapped in immense anger and gritted his teeth as he asked, "Did you abort our child?"

Faced with his anger, I appeared calm and composed.

I moved my dry throat and softly said, "Mm."

"What right did you have to abort him? He was my child too!"

Rarely, he actually argued about this.

In four years of marriage, he never asked me about having children. Even when his parents urged me to have a child, he always jumped in first and said, "We're still young. There's no rush to have kids now."

So, I always thought he didn't like children.

"Speak up, Clara!"

Hearing his angry roar, I said calmly, "Because I think your mom was right. Bad genes are hereditary. I don't want my child to be like you."

Hearing this, Ian's body stiffened. His expression turned ugly.

He angrily kicked the chair next to him.

The chair couldn't bear the weight and fell straight to the ground with a loud noise.

I was so scared that my heart skipped a beat. I pressed my dry lips together tightly.

Ian laughed angrily and said repeatedly, "Clara, you are something."

I didn't know if I was something or not. I just knew I was really tired.

I didn't have the energy to argue with him anymore.

So, I just closed my eyes.

I didn't know how long it had been, but the room was silent.

When I opened my eyes again, I was the only one left in the room.

With Ian's help, my mom got a lot of property when she divorced.

Now, she was using that money to travel and relax.

In this city, I only had my close friend, Eva Garcia, left to contact.

After a short rest, I contacted her.

Since I wanted to divorce, I should be decisive.

Eva hurried over. Before she could sit down, I said, "Eva, can you help me with something?"

"With what? Why are you in the hospital?"

I told her everything that had happened recently.

Eva fell silent after hearing my words.

Back then, she advised me not to tell Ian about my dad's affair.

She feared it would one day turn to hurt me.
