Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 525: Abortion 

Caroline’s POV:

As I lay silently on the bed, the wound on my body began to ache.

A few moments after the accident, I suffered a concussion and I had several bruises on my legs.

Due to the fact that I was pregnant, the doctor was very cautious in giving me a prescription.

However, there were still certain medications that I must take.

Apart from all that, I didn’t have any other physical problems.I could even be discharged from the hospital right this moment.I stared the ceiling, dazed and heartbroken.

While the doctor making his morning rounds of the wards, he said, "Get enough rest.Based on the tests we ran on the fetus’ condition, it’s not optimistic.Of course, the choice is all yours."

I didn’t respond to the doctor’s reminder.I just stared at the news being broadcast on TV.

Seeing Nevaeh leaving Charles’ room and wearing his shirt broke my heart, and it made me feel cold all over.

As I stared at the TV, my vision began to blur.

When I came to my senses and closed my eyes, tears fell from the corners of my eyes.

It turned out that the reports were all true.

Charles and Nevaeh really were getting married.

At this moment, all the effort I made to deceive myself turned into a joke.I couldn’t help but laugh at myself for how stupid I was.

How could Charles proclaim that he loved me, and yet he was dating another woman at the same time? Once the doctor had given instructions, he left.

Simon stood beside the bed, putting down the lunch box and holding my face with both hands.

He made me look at him, and told me, "Caroline, if you don’t want to keep looking at it, don’t.Stop torturing yourself."

"It’s fine.I’ve already experienced this before."

I struggled to sit up from the bed, wiped the tears from my eyes, and tried to maintain my composure.

The only way I could truly make myself fully grasp this was to watch all of it clearly.

That same man managed to fool me again and again, and I let him.I should’ve already guessed that things would end up like this when he left along with Nevaeh that day.

But even though I had expected it, I was still devastated. I huddled beneath the blanket, clenching my fists tightly.

My nails dug into my flesh, but I didn’t feel much pain.My body was shaking violently and it took so much effort to calm myself down.

Simon remained silent for a long time, just staring at me.

Gradually, a look of sympathy appeared on his face.

"You don’t have to act tough in front of me, Caroline.I can tell that you’re really sad right now.If you want to cry lean on my shoulder and cry as much as you want."

"I don’t need it."

I pushed his hands away, stared at the thermo lunch box on the table and said, "Help me get some soup."

Simon opened the lunch box and ladled a bowl of soup for me.He didn’t hand me the bowl until it was a little cooler.I endured the nausea and dizziness, held the bowl, and drank it all down.

Sadly, when I almost finished the bowl, I threw up again.I squatted in front of the trash can and puked all the food I ingested.

The tears that I had prevented from falling eventually fell again.I bit my lower lip tightly to prevent myself from making a sound.I didn’t want anyone to see just how vulnerable and humiliated I was at this moment. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Simon walked over and gave me a gentle pat on the back.

"I’ll call the doctor," he said.

"No, it’s fine.This is a normal symptom of pregnancy.It’s just morning sickness." I sniffled and stood up.

"Please ask the doctor about the abortion." Simon was stunned by my request.

"Don’t you want this baby anymore, Caroline?"

"Those pills have side effects on the baby.It’ll be better for the baby to leave this world now than to continue suffering in my womb."

I gritted my teeth to stop myself from sobbing.

"Have you thought this through? Once the baby is gone, there’s no turning back," Simon warned.

I nodded in response and tears continued to fall from my eyes.

My hands were trembling as I pressed them against my lower abdomen, closing my eyes in pain.

‘Forgive my cruelty, my dear child.I had failed to take good care of you ever since you were conceived.I knew that I’m pregnant with you, and yet I still took medication and kept running around to deal with the company’s affairs"

The more I thought about it, the more tears flowed from my eyes.

Despite the fact that I knew I’d get hurt again, I gave Charles a second chance and willingly threw myself into his arms.

That was the reason I ended up in this situation, and for that, I deserved it.

‘From now on, I’m only going to pay attention to things that will benest me and forget about stupid crap like love and affection.Let’s see who has the last laugh!’

Charles’ POV:

Upon learning that Caroline had gone to the obstetrics and gynecology department to get an abortion, my heart stopped for a moment.

As I passed through the corridors between the two buildings of the hospital, I strode to the OB-GYN department as fast as my legs could carry me.

By the time I arrived, I saw Simon waiting outside the door.

I rushed over.

Before I could speak, I heard a nurse from inside shouting, "Where is Miss Caroline Wilson’s husband?"

Simon shot me a cold glance before hurrying into the room.

I stood there, dazed and confused.I felt like my heart was about to leap from my chest.

‘Is the operation over? Did Caroline really cast aside her morality and aborted our child?’ My mind soon went blank.

I walked over there, feeling like my legs were as heavy as concrete.

Outside the operating room, Caroline lay on a sickbed.

Her face was deathly pale, and her hair was wet and sticking to her forehead.

She looked so weak that she appeared like she’d pass out the next second.

Simon was about to help her up.

Annoyed, I grabbed his arm and pulled it away.

Then, I took a step closer to Caroline, put my hand on her back, and helped her sit up.I placed my other hand under her legs and carried her.

Caroline struggled to free herself from me.

When I looked down, I saw the disgust in her eyes.

"Let me go, Charles!"

The sound of her voice was faint, but every word that came out of her lips were vicious enough to tear my heart out.

Simon stood in front of me and shouted; "Charles, she said let her go!"

"Who are you to her? And what right do you have to meddle in our affairs?" I asked through gritted teeth.

Anger boiled from within me and soon came bubbling up to the surface.

"What do you think you’re doing, Charles? Caroline is an unstable condition.Do you really have to keep making things harder on her?"

Simon clenched his fists and his face was full of anger.

"Shut the fuck up and get the fuck out of my face! This is between me and Caroline.You’re just an outsider.You have no right to meddle in our business!" I sneered.

Ignoring Simon, I stared at the woman in my arms and asked through gritted teeth, "Caroline, why did you abort our child? Don’t you have any conscience?"

I had tried my best to make a living and prepare a happy future for our family.

If I had done something wrong, she could beat me or scold me, and I wouldn’t even dream of fighting back.

She shouldn’t have ended our child’s life so easily! Caroline looked up and growled, "This child isn’t yours! Just like I said before, Simon is the father of the child.And even if I want to get an abortion, it has nothing to do with you."

"Him? Does he even deserve you?"

I carefully put Caroline on the bed before swinging my fist at Simon.

He didn’t avoid my fist and ended up getting hit in the jaw.

"Do you think I don’t know that you’re behind that shitstorm of public opinion aimed at me? I advise you to behave yourself, or else you’re going to suffer my wrath!"
