Chapter 1: The Child is Taken Away

Elizabeth walked through the bustling hospital entrance, her hand trembling with excitement as she held the lab report.

She and Hudson had been married for three years, and finally, they had a baby of their own.

She couldnt help but place her hand on her stomach.

In this place, there was already a vibrant little life.

Elizabeth couldnt stop the smile that rose on her face, filled with the taste of happiness. Almost unable to wait, she took out her phone, wanting to share this good news with him.

They were going to be parents.

Would he be as excited as she was?

Her peripheral vision, however, caught a familiar figure, and Elizabeth paused, looking closely.

Her husband was at that moment holding a delicate woman in his arms, who bore a striking resemblance to her.

Gloria!

The name appeared in Elizabeths mind; yes, it was her, the woman in the yellowed photo that Hudson kept in his study.

The woman was dressed in white, her pale face devoid of color, her eyes smiling tenderly at Hudson.

"Hudson, its okay, I dont hurt at all."

She doesnt hurt?

What about me?

My heart aches so much, Hudson, turn around, turn around and look at me!

Gloria whispered in Hudsons ear, and from Elizabeths perspective, it seemed as if she was nestled in Hudsons embrace.

"The doctor will be here soon."

Hudsons face was full of worry as he replied to her, looking down.

"Hudson..."

Elizabeth endured the heartache and called out softly.

Hudson turned his head, his gaze falling on Elizabeth, and let out a disdainful cold laugh, his eyes filled with contempt, and he snorted, "Ive told the housekeeper, tell him whatever you want, what else do you want to do?"

They had been husband and wife for three years, always meeting like enemies, with his cold, disgusted eyes trying to reduce her to her original form, constantly reminding her to know her place.

Hudson was good to her, but she didnt need it; she just wanted to be by his side.

She had loved him for eight years, a whole eight years.

"Well, Im now living in luxury, with more money than I can spend, what else do I need?"

She laughed at Hudson, laughing until tears came out.

Hudson turned his head away from her desolate smile: "Its good to understand, remember your identity, and give up other thoughts."

"Of course, I will always remember my identity as Mrs. Hudson."

Glorias eyes flashed with disgust, and she fell backward, her coquettish eyes also closing, her brows furrowed and seemingly in great pain.

"Yan!"

Hudson exclaimed in horror, holding her and rushing into the hospital.

Elizabeth, showing off in front of me, I will not let you die well.

The two rushed into the distance, and Elizabeth mockingly hooked the corners of her lips, in a trance, she remembered the first time he called her so intimately.

It was the beginning of him and her; both of them were drunk in the room. With the help of alcohol, they were together, and after the clouds and rain, he whispered in her ear, over and over again, saying, "Yan, I love you."

Elizabeth indulged in it; his love was like a swamp, making her unable to extricate herself, deeply involved.

"Make way, make way for everyone!"

The mans urgent shout brought the distracted Elizabeth back to the present, but it was still too late.

A sharp hard object pierced her back, and she involuntarily fell forward.

"Ah!"

The intense pain spread throughout her body, and Elizabeth clutched her stomach, groaning in agony, "Save... save my child..."

She forcefully tugged at the persons sleeve, the maternal instinct to protect her stomach.

Blood covered the ground, and the smell of blood spread through the corridor.

"Doctor, a doctor, save Yan!"

She seemed to see Hudson in the distance, shouting, his handsome face full of anxiety.

But he was not trying to save her, but the person she held dear, Gloria.

Three years of sincere dedication, self-deceived mutual love.

It was just her wishful thinking, self-infatuation.

She thought the pain would become numb over time, but why does it hurt more and more now.

Elizabeth, its time to wake up, you two are never from the same world.

The world spun around her, and she closed her eyes weakly.

The pain around her body, for a moment, she couldnt tell whether it was the pain in her stomach or her heart.

The strong smell of hospital disinfectant water choked her, and Elizabeth groggy opened her eyes to see a field of white.

"Youre awake? Why didnt you tell me you were pregnant?"

Look, he is always so high and mighty, always so disdainful of her and her feelings.

"You tried every means to get pregnant with my child to consolidate your hard-earned status?" He snorted, "Fools dream! The wild child in your belly has been dealt with, so take care of yourself."

"Why? Why did you kill him?"

Her baby, before coming to this world, was killed by his father.

"Did you ask for my opinion? The child is mine, what right do you have to strip him of his existence?"

She grabbed her hand that was about to push, Hudson threw her away, and strangled her neck.

"Elizabeth, have I been too good to you, making you feel lightheaded?"

Elizabeths eyes were full of sarcasm and desolation, and the thin air made it difficult for her to breathe. She raised her head and looked at Hudson: "You dare not, if you kill me, Grandpa will not give you the inheritance."

Hudson sneered and threw Elizabeth away, looking at her lying on the bed with disgust: "Threaten me? Threaten me with Grandpa? Very good..."

"The money and wealth you want, I have brought them to you. I warn you, do not touch the old man."

After finishing, he turned and left, and the door was slammed.

So, the person who accompanied him for three years is in his eyes just a greedy and materialistic woman?

Elizabeth sat there in a daze, with big tears gushing out from the bottom of her eyes, and her whole body was full of desolation.

The doctor who pushed the door in couldnt bear it and comforted, "Its okay, there will be children sooner or later."

Elizabeth was stunned as soon as she heard the child.

In front of her, it seemed that Hudson looked at her with disgust and said to the doctor, "Take that wild child away from her!"

The child could have been saved, right?

Why cant she keep a child, her child? So cruel?

What a cruel heart!

A short sentence pushed Elizabeth into the abyss, sent her to hell, and she and Hudsons only bond was gone.

"There will be no more..." Elizabeth shook her head slowly, and her voice was full of sadness.

The doctor sighed and walked out after the examination.

After a while, the door was pushed open, and the person came in and strode over, reaching out to wake Elizabeth who was closing her eyes.

He reached out to touch her shoulder, and Elizabeth suddenly opened her eyes and shrank in the corner, full of vigilance.
