Because I Was an and He Threw Away 302

Chapter 302 Killed Our Child 

What a nightmare! Emily had to endure the embarrassment during her period. 

Before she could collect her wits, her world went dark, and she crumpled to the ground. 

There was a pool of blood seeping from her calves, staining the floor crimson. 

Spotting her collapse, Ethan sprang to his feet and rushed over in long strides. 

Kneeling beside her, he tenderly stroked her cheek. 

It was ghost–pale, devoid of any color. 

Panic welled up within him, and before he knew it, he’d scooped her up and was dashing out of Joy Gardens. 

Meanwhile, Matthew, hobbling on his cane, was lagging far behind. “Hey, Ethan! Call me as soon as you reach the hospital,” he shouted at the top of his lungs. 

“Got it, Grandpa,” Ethan’s distant voice replied.

When Emily finally came to her senses, she was met with the sight of Ethan standing by the window, a cloud of cigarette smoke swirling around him. 

The room reeked of nicotine, and she wrinkled her nose in disgust. 

“Ethan, can you take that outside? This stench is killing me,” she rasped. 

Only then did she realize her voice had become a husky shadow of itself. 

Ethan stubbed out the half–smoked cigarette in the ashtray and ambled over to her bedside. 

Taking a seat, he fixed her with a cold, probing stare. “Emily, I want you to be honest. What do you think caused you to black out?” 

Emily met his gaze, detecting a hint of suspicion. 

She had no clue what he was insinuating, but the searing pain in her lower belly told her this wasn’t an average period. 

Nevertheless, she dug her heels in. “It was just those killer period cramps. That’s all.” 

Ellan’s eyes narrowed. His voice dropped to a menaci 13:12

murmur. “You really gonna stick with that story? Are you sure there’s nothing you’re keeping from me?” 

Gradually, Emily began to catch on. Fed up, she snapped, “Ethan, if you’re gonna act crazy, take it elsewhere. I’m too beat for this nonsense.” 

After her outburst, fatigue washed over her like a tidal wave. Every breath was a struggle as the pain in her abdomen intensified. A cold sweat broke out on her forehead as she instinctively placed her hand on her belly. 

This was no ordinary period pain; it was excruciating. 

The dull ache in her private parts also made her suspect she’d undergone some sort of surgery. 

Even though Emily had a hunch about what had happened, she refused to give in. 

Ethan’s steely gaze never wavered. “Take your time. But when you’ve decided, you’d better tell me the truth,” he said icily. 

Reaching the end of her tether, Emily glared at him. “For the love of God, will you just spit it out?” 

A sly glint flashed in Ethan’s eyes. “So, seems like the fog’s clearing, huh?”

Slumped against the bed rail, Emily regarded him with bloodshot eyes. 

She was so weak that even the slightest movement was a Herculean task, and the sweat was pouring off her in rivulets. 

Ethan’s imposing demeanor was suffocating, yet he still refused to come clean. 

After several tense exchanges, Emily had a pretty good idea of what he was driving at, and she dreaded the truth that loomed. 

Finally, Emily cracked. Shrieking with a breaking voice, she burst out, “All your questions, Ethan. You’re itching to accuse me of aborting your kid, aren’t you?” 

The moment Emily owned up, Ethan’s eyes dimmed. Out from behind, he whipped out a wad of papers and slapped them right in Emily’s face. 

“How could you, Emily? That was my flesh and blood! How dare ya just toss my baby away like it’s nothing?” 

Emily’s gaze froze on the papers. She recognized them at once- it was her medical record, proof of the abortion. 

Confronted with Ethan’s fury, Emily flashed a rueful smile. “Why can’t I? I have the right to decide about my own body. Keep the baby or abort it, that’s my call.”

Ethan stared her down, a sneer on his lips. “And what about me? Don’t I even get to know?” 

A pang shot through Emily’s chest. She glowered at him. “What’s the use of talking? Can you turn back the clock?” 

Leaning against the bedrail, she felt weightless, as if any second she’d topple over. 

Sweat soaked her clothes, and a cold chill ran through her body like she was in a freezer. 

Ethan’s temper flared at her nonchalant attitude. “You killed our child, Emily, and you’re acting like it’s no big deal?” 

Emily scoffed, “Yeah, I did. What’re you gonna do, huh?” 

That was the last straw for Ethan. He lunged forward and grabbed Emily by the throat. With a firm tug, he yanked her 

closer. 

Pressing his forehead to hers, he growled through gritted teeth, “You’re playing with fire, Emily!” 

Why 

Gasping for air, Emily stared back with bloodshot eyes. “You’re so wrapped up in Nancy, you don’t give a damn about me. should I risk my life for this baby?”

Ethan tightened his grip, his eyes turning blood–red. “You were pregnant, and you snuck off and got rid of it. That’s murder, plain and simple.” 

Somehow, Emily found the strength to pound on Ethan’s hand. She hollered, “I don’t regret it for a second.” 

From the moment she made the decision, Emily had no second thoughts. 

She even felt a twinge of relief, thankful the baby was still so small and she’d woken up in time. 

As soon as her words left her lips, Ethan shoved her hard. 

She crashed backward, her head hitting the bedrail with a thud. 

Shooting her a cold look, Ethan barked, “You’re a nutjob, Emily.”
