Outside the door, Chad received a call.
After the call, he saw Elyette coming out of the ward. He immediately went forward and reported to Elyette in a low voice, “Mr. Foster, we found Tammy. S-She has been raped. Her body suffered huge damage, also…she had a miscarriage.”
Chad’s voice was extremely soft, but Averie still heard him.
She stood by the door, breathing heavily with a pained expression.
Then, her breathing got quicker!
“Averie! Are you alright!” Elyette was terrified. He picked her up. His palm on her lower half felt something hot, wet, and sticky…
lagot the doctor!” Elyette barked and carried Averie into her ward. He carefully placed her on the bed.
Averie’s pants were wet. Elyette looked at his palms. Thankfully it was not blood!
“Has my water broken…” Averie sobbed terribly. “Elyette, I’m sorry. I’m very sad. I can’t control myself…”
If her water has broken, the child has to be given birth immediately. Averie’s child was only eight months old. If the child was born at that moment, it was considered premature labor. Premature labor came with a series of 48 complications.
She knew that she was late into her pregnancy, she should not be so upset , she should have controlled her emotions to ensure the child’s health, but she could not control herself.:
“Averie, don’t cry. Your water breaking is not a huge thing. We’ll just give birth to the child, that’s all.” Elyette took some tissues and wiped away her tears. “Tammy has been located. She is not in any danger. Once you’ve given birth to your child, I’ll take you to see her.”
Averie choked up and responded.
Soon, the doctor arrived. Once the doctor checked up on her, they immediately pushed her into the operationed theater.
Elyette looked at the shut operation theater doors. His heart constricted tightly.
“Mr. Foster, don’t worry. Averie and the child will be fine,” Chad comfortedco him.
Elyette swallowed his saliva. He said sternly, “It’s best if that was the case. If anything happens to her and the child,
I’ll make sure that the culprit behind this incident will die together!”
Chad said, “Ben has gone to look for Chelsea. She denied that this was her doing.”
“Without any evidence, of course, she won’t admit it!” Elyette said coldly. “Tammy’s body has evidence of the crime.
If we investigate this, we will find evidence!”
They were discussing while Mike was yawning by the side. He had not slept for the entire night. At that moment he could barely keep his eyes open.
Tammy has been found. Averie was going into labor. The worst stage has passed. He believed that modern medicine would ensure Averie’s and the child’s safety.
“I’ll go back to catch up on sleep.” Mike greeted them. “When I get up, I’ll bring the children over.”
“Let me send you back! You’re not in a good shape right now. I’m afraid that you’ll get in an accident.” Chad was worried for Mike, so he left together with him.
Soon after they left, Wesley rushed over after hearing the news. Soon after he arrived, the child was born.
Because it was cesarean section labor, after the birth of the child, the surgery did not end there immediately.
The child was a premature baby. After birth, Elyette only managed to take one glance at the child before it was sent to the neonatal unit by the nurse.
The child was small. It was so small Elyette was heartbroken. He even doubted whether the child could survive.
Wesley saw Elyette’s wet eyes. He immediately comforted Elyette, “Eight months old premature babies usually won’t have any huge complications. Let it be in the incubator for a month or two and it will grow like a normal baby. Don’t worry.”
“What can I do?” Elyette muttered softly.
“Take good care of Averie,” Wesley said, “Although Tammy has been found, the damage is done. You have to properly talk to Averie, be careful of postpartum depression.”
Elyette nodded.
“A cesarean section is more damaging to the mother compared to natural birth. Don’t let her leave the ward for at least two days after the surgery. No matter what, you have to let her body heal first,” Wesley said, “She can only be discharged once the doctor says so.”
After a while, the operation theater doors were open. Averie was pushed out and sent to the intensive care unit.
Averie’s emotions seemed much more stable than before.
Although she was still missing Tammy, because she had just given birth to a small human being, her outlook has changed a little.Her child in her was initially still doing well, but because of this accident, she has to give birth to it earlier.
When the nurse showed her the baby, she wanted to cry, but she could not cry out, as if her tears were frozen.
Looking at the small baby, Averie blamed herself.
When Hayden and Layla were born, they were premature too.That was because twins were usually given birth prematurely, so their pregnancy term was shorter than usual.Robert was even smaller than Layla and Hayden.
Although she knew that he would survive, she was still upset.
“Averie, does it hurt?” Elyette saw her in a daze, so he broke the silence.
Averie shook her head gently.She was injected with anesthesia before the surgery.
The effects have not worn off yet, so she did not feel pain.
“Have you seen the baby?” Averie’s eyes fluttered.Her voice was very soft.
“I saw it.He looks like me.”
Elyette gently held her hand and said hoarsely, “Averie, thank you.”
“The child is still so small…” Averie choked up.
“It’s all my fault.I’m a bad mother.”
“It has nothing to do with you.Also, premature labor does not mean that our child will not be healthy.Don’t overthink this.You need to rest now,”
Elyette coaxed, “I will properly look into Tammy’s incident.I will make sure that she gets justice.”
Averie has just finished surgery.She was weak at that moment.
Even if she was angry and upset, she could not flare up.
On the other side, the news of Averie’s premature labor was spread to Chelsea.Chelsea was elated.
Although premature labor did not mean that the child would die, the risk was there.
Chelsea could not sleep for the entire night.She was thinking of her next step.She handed a card to Nora.
“Leave right now.The money in this card is enough for you to go for cosmetic surgery,”
Chelsea said, “If you were caught by Elyette, I won’t protect you.”
Nora accepted the card and said gratefully, “I’ll leave now master.I promise I won’t get you in trouble.”
“Don’t call me master.From today onward, I don’t need you anymore.” Chelsea took one last glance at her. Her eyes were filled with disgust.
After Nora left, Chelsea took her phone out and dialed Ben.
At that moment, Ben was visiting Averie in the hospital.
When he received Nora’s call, he walked out of the ward.
“Ben, I found out who was the one that kidnapped Tammy already” Ben’s eyebrows throbbed.
“Are you going to say that it was Nora?”
Other than Chelsea and Nora, he could not guess who else would hurt Tammy.
Other than playing and having fun, Tammy rarely mixed with complicated people.
Averie got into premature labor because of Tammy’s incident.He was even more convinced that the culprit kidnapped Tammy to agitate Averie.
“What do you mean by that?”
Chelsea said angrily, “Are you trying to say that I have to bear the responsibility of what my cousin did? Her mental being has been distorted due to her ruined looks, so she did something terrible.How is this anything to do with me?”
“Oh, you’re calling me to tell me this, so I’ll tell this to Elyette?” Ben derided.
“No need! I’ll call him and tell him this myself! I’m calling you because you came to look for me last night! I initially thought that you care about the truth.I didn’t expect that you would doubt me!”
“Chelsea, you better don’t call him. I don’t think he will want to listen to your excuses,”
Ben mocked, “Averie was upset and got into premature labor because of this.He won’t let this go just like that.You better pray for luck!”
Chelsea’s body turned cold.
Pray for luck? They could never find the evidence that she was the one who did it! With Nora as her scapegoat, it will never be her.
Even if they all thought that she was the one who did it, as long as they did not have any proof, they could not do anything to her.
Elyette never loved her before.How bad could their relationship turn?
At the hospital, Chelsea brought a bouquet of lilies to visit Tammy.
Visiting Tammy was only one of the reasons.
It was mainly to see how Tammy was doing, at the same time, telling them that it was Nora who did it and she had nothing to do with it.She initially wanted to tell Elyette about this on her own, but she lacked the courage.She indeed called Ben so that Ben would pass the word to Elyette.
However, Ben has completely lost trust in her, so she could only come to visit Tammy.
Jun stopped Chelsea outside the ward.
“How dare you come here!” Jun threw the bouquet of lilies in her hand into the bin.
He clenched his fists, his eyes burning with rage.
Chelsea said calmly, “Jun, I’m sorry.Nora should be the one who did it.Her face was ruined previously, she was agitated, so she recklessly planned this…”
“Shouldn’t she seek revenge on you because her face was ruined? Could she not have known that you were the one who did it?” Jun did not spare her any mercy. He revealed her ugliness in this matter.
‘’You and your dirty tactics.You tried to hurt Averie but ended up ruining your cousin’s face.Do you think we won’t know about this?”
Chelsea said, “It wasn’t me!”
Jun looked at her retorting, he felt disgusted, “Elyette said he would look into this.If you want to explain yourself, do it in front of him.I’m angry just by looking at you right now.If you don’t leave any time soon, I’m afraid I won’t control myself and beat you up! If I beat you up or make you cripple, I won’t be sentenced to death.At most, I’ll have to compensate you with money…”
Jun’s words scared Chelsea half to death, and she immediately fled.
After she left, Jun returned to the ward.
He saw how Tammy’s eyes were open, but they were empty out of focus.
Although she was awake, her mental being was terrible.She said nothing, but tears kept falling.
Jun looked at her and he was heartbroken over and over again.
From the bruises on her body, he knew what torture she went through.
The doctor said that she might not be able to reproduce anymore.
