Moriah didn't know that Billy had cheated on Sherman. And now, she flew into fury as heard it from Grace and Summer.
Sherman still needed rest, so two hours later, Grace and Summer left. Moriah stayed with Sherman in the ward.
"Mom, please go home. Leave me alone. Just have May come over. I want to stay here alone."
Unable to persuade Sherman, Moriah left. May stood outside the door of the ward. With her eyes staring blankly out the window, Sherman watched the leaves falling from the trees one by one.
She was calm, very calm, and even the heartbeat was s o steady. It seemed she had died ...
There was nothing in this world that would always belong to you.
She had thought that Billy would be her man forever, but it turned out she was wrong. She thought the child would stay with her and would not leave, but he ...
Someone told her it was a boy. Boys were usually naughty, but he was well-behaved. He occasionally kicked her in the belly, but rarely afflicted her.
She had been waiting, waiting, waiting for his birth,
but she did not expect his death.
Tears flowed down her cheeks quietly, which tasted bitter and salty.
There were footsteps coming from outside the ward, and then the door of the ward was opened and Billy walked in.
Billy was sullen and distressed. He was expecting the child!
In the first three month of Sherman's pregnancy, Billy was elated and happy, feeling magical. And he prepared baby's clothes, decorated the baby room and even bought a stroller for the baby.
She now thought that explaining would only bother her mouth and that it was a waste of her saliva.
He didn't want to know why Sherman would say things like this, but instead, he said, with certainty, that it wouldn't be Natalie's fault. Billy's reaction chilled Sherman to the bone.
"I want to know the truth, why did you miscarry the baby?" Billy looked a bit painful.
Sherman didn't even want to look at him. She pointed at the door of the ward, "You have two choices. You get out, or I go out."
Billy stood in place. Sherman removed the needle for transfusion, and nearly stood up. So, Billy had no choice but to go out, his brows furrowed.
The ward was quiet again. Only the sound of Sherman's breathing echoed in the ward. Loneliness, pain...
Lee cleaned the chair and returned to the villa, when Kingsley were tapping on his notebook with his slender fingers.
