Remarry My Ex-wife: Love Heals A Broken Heart

Chapter 20: Saying Goodbye To Her Baby

An indescribable trace of fear flashed through Zac's heart as he watched her odd movements, but it disappeared as quickly as it came.

What he didn't know was that the best way he could think of to avoid public humiliation had diminished Patricia's love for him.

By this time, Patricia had gotten into the car and was sitting quietly in the passenger seat.

Seeing her stay so quiet without any resistance made the fear in Zac's heart resurface, but he still chose to ignore it.

He opened the door, sat in the driver's seat, and started the car.

In a flash, the Bugatti Veyron zoomed down the road and disappeared from the door of No.6 of the Oakleaf Villa.

Patricia's sadness and desperation seemed to emanate from her.

But although her eyes were dim and empty, there was a strange, unsettling smile at the corners of her mouth.

Even as he drove, Zac kept glancing at Patricia out of the corner of his eye.

When he saw the small smile on her face, he suddenly felt anxious, as if something had gone wrong.

With her hands on her lower abdomen, Patricia silently talked to her baby.

‘Baby, please don't blame Mommy.I really don't want to do this, but I can't only think about the two of us.I have to think about your grandma and your great-grandfather too.I really love you and wish that I could have you at my side, but it's impossible now.

But I hope that I can still be your mother in the next life.

Since you're not saying anything, I'll take it that you agree with my decision.

I hope you understand me.

I'll be waiting for you! Remember to come to me! Her eyes gradually filled with tears, but the smile playing at her lips only grew wider and wider.

A veil of despair descended over her.

Although Zac noticed that there was something wrong with Patricia, he didn't think too much.

He just assumed that she was feeling sad because she wouldn't be able to continue her relationship with that man after she lost his child.

Despite that, he still couldn't help but ask, "Are you okay?"

Patricia just snorted, turned away, and looked out of the window.

The tears in her eyes finally fell and left wet tracks on her cheeks, adding a trace of desolation to her beautiful face.

Seeing that Patricia didn't want to talk to him, Zac didn't say anything more.

He just stepped hard on the gas and drove faster.

In the past, Patricia had always daydreamed about sitting in Zac's car and going on a road trip with him.

Now, she was finally sitting in his car, but they weren't going on a happy trip.

He was taking her to have an abortion.

The more she thought about it, the more ridiculous she found it to be.

Was God laughing at her wishful thinking? Half an hour later, the Bugatti Veyron rolled to a stop in the parking lot of Municipal People's Hospital.

"Get out of the car."

Zac's tone was still cold and emotionless.

Patricia had already long stopped crying, but the smile at the corners of her lips remained.

Without saying anything, she opened the door, got out of the car, and strode towards the outpatient hall of the hospital.

It was late at night, and there was no one in the outpatient hall of the hospital except the nurses on duty.

Looking around at the cold and uninviting hospital walls, Patricia thought of the pain of getting an abortion.

She suddenly turned around and strode towards the door of the hall, eager to escape.

However, she had barely taken two steps when Zac appeared at the door, piercing her with his ruthless eyes.

She had no choice but to bury the regret that had just appeared in her mind.

She was stuck between a rock and hard place, so there was no room for her to regret anything.

She turned around again and stood quietly in the middle of the hall.

Zac walked to her, grabbed her arm, and pulled her upstairs.

This time, instead of resisting, Patricia allowed herself to be led around the hospital like a soulless puppet.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the obstetrics and gynecology department.

A doctor opened the door and said respectfully, "Mr.Reynolds, you're here!"

At first, when Patricia saw the closed door, she still had a sliver of hope in her heart.

She thought that if there was no doctor on duty, she could leave.

As long as she could leave the hospital tonight, she would somehow find a way to protect the baby.

But the doctor's appearance destroyed all her hopes.

"Mr.Reynolds, please have a seat.Just now, our dean called and asked us to be well-prepared, so don't worry," the doctor said confidently, inviting them into his office.

Looking’ at the doctor in front of her, Patricia felt even sadder.

Did Zac hate her so much that he had found her a male doctor? But before she could say anything about it, Zac said coldly, "Find a female doctor!"

"What? Oh! Yes, of course," the doctor stammered, slightly taken aback.

He glanced at Patricia, and a look of realization dawned in his eyes.

After that, he got up and left, leaving them to wait in the office.

Patricia sat there quietly and motionlessly...

Two hours later, lying on the bed of the most exclusive ward of the hospital, Patricia opened her eyes.

Her face was unusually pale, and her lips were dry.

She didn't cry or speak.

She just lay quietly, staring at the ceiling with her glassy eyes.

She felt as if she could see her baby waving goodbye to her, but she didn't want to say goodbye to all.

She raised her arm and reached out to the ceiling, as if trying to grasp something.

Zac had been sitting beside her bed, lost in thought.

He recalled Patricia fainting after seeing the doctor, and then carrying her to the examination room.

"She has an ectopic pregnancy, and the baby is malnourished.We need to operate on her as soon as possible..."

The doctor's words still echoed in Zac's ears.

Before he could come to a decision, he saw Patricia suddenly raise her hand and close it, as if grabbing something.

He lowered his head and looked at her with surprise in his eyes.

"You're awake.How are you feeling?"

He didn't know why, but as soon as he saw her pale face, his heart ached again.

Patricia continued to stare at the ceiling with her arm raised in the air, as if she still hadn't come out of her own world.

Seeing that Patricia didn't say anything, Zac stood up, picked up the lunch box on the table, and held it out to her.

"The doctor said that you are very weak and need to eat something to replenish yourself.I just bought you something to eat.Eat it while it's still hot!"

If Zac had said these words to her in the past, Patricia would have been so excited that she wouldn't have been able to fall asleep.

But now, she felt bitter and uneasy.

She slowly turned over and pulled the quilt over herself with her back to Zac.

Then, she pulled her knees up to her chest, curling into a small ball as she silently shed tears.

No one would be able to understand the amount of pain that gripped her heart at the moment.

Somehow, it felt worse than dying.

When Zac saw that Patricia didn't want to talk to him, he curled his lips in displeasure.

It might be cruel for him to force her to have an abortion, but was it right for her to be pregnant with another man’s child before their divorce?
