Loredana pursed her lips hard, trying to endure the pain.
Just as she was on the brink of collapse, Sampson strutted towards them, “Lola, I am here to look for you, but I didn’t expect that you are really here. Are you feeling not well now?”
As a psychologist, he was very well-versed in the workings of the human body. Although Loredana was trying to conceal her discomfort, this didn’t go unnoticed in Sampson’s eyes.
Ever since they had parted ways that day, he had gone looking for Maxina and subsequently learnt of the truth about Loredana’ baby.
He didn’t know how to describe the feelings in his heart. It was certainly not pleasant to say the least.
Why didn’t she seek help from him if she was so burdened with troubles?
He wanted to look for her, but he didn’t know where she was staying. Therefore, he tried his luck at the spot they had met last time, and unexpectedly he was able to bump into her.
Loredana couldn’t care about anything else at the moment. The pain in her lower belly was too much.
She grabbed Sampson’s arm and begged, “Please send me to the hospital now.”
Sampson glanced at her stomach and just as he was about to carry her off her feet, a massive strength suddenly landed on his shoulders.
He turned around and saw Cormac’s darkened face, “She is my wife.”
His tone wasn’t particularly strong, but it was intimidating!
It was as if he was giving out warnings. This woman was his wife, and nobody was to touch her!
Sampson revealed a smile, one that looked sarcastic, “You guys are husband and wife?”
Before Cormac could respond, he added, “You guys are just doing this according to an agreement.
You will never marry a woman who is already pregnant.”
Suddenly, Cormac asked menacingly with narrowed eyes, “Does that child belong to you?”
The one who was hugging Loredana the other day was this guy.
Who else could be the father of Loredana’s baby other than this guy?
Sampson suddenly felt so bad for Loredana. Sampson couldn’t help thinking if she found him on the day of the car accident she wouldn’t be so painful now.
Seeing Sampson’s expression, Cormac thought that he admitted it with silence. Cormac sneered,
“She is very young…”
“What do you know?!” Sampson suddenly shouted. His eyes were a little red. He knew what Cormac wanted to say. Cormac must think Loredana was a slut, because she got pregnant at such a young age.
But Cormac had no idea what Loredana had been through!
Sampson glanced at Cormac’s suit, which was extremely expensive. Sampson couldn’t help thinking that Cormac’s suit might already a wealth as an ordinary worker’s one-year salary.
“You are from a noble rich family. Did you ever suffer from poverty? Did you ever know how it feels to have no money, no food? Did you ever have the feeling of helplessness? You had no idea! You don’t know what she experienced to survive till now…”
Loredana grabbed Sampson’s hand and shook her head towards him to tell him to stop. She didn’t need sympathy and pity love from anyone. She just wanted to survive and take good care of her mom and her baby.
“Take me to the hospital.” Loredana couldn’t stand here anymore.
“OK.” Sampson bent over and held her in his arms.
Seeing that Cormac was still being taken aback by what Sampson said, Loredana felt uncomfortable.
She said as if she was also surprised what Sampson said, “Sorry, I can’t stop working. But I can assure you that I will never let anyone know about it. I won’t do anything to make you shamed.”
Cormac frowned. Then he looked at Loredana’s face and felt complicated.
No one knew better than Sampson about Loredana’s situation now. Loredana was in Sampson’s arms now and her whole body was shaking while talking to Cormac.
Sampson held her to the car and said gently, “Don’t be afraid. There is no blood. You will be fine.”
Sampson drove as fast as possible to the hospital.
Staring at the car driving away, Cormac couldn’t help thinking about what Sampson said and wondering what secret Loredana had.
Sometimes, Loredana did act weirdly.
To figure out what was going on, he took out his cell phone and gave Abbott a call. “Search for me about Loredana.”
“About what?”
“Everything.”
Cormac hung up immediately.
“Cormac.” Helen ran out of the restaurant and immediately held his arm, “Are you still angry with me for not letting Loredana join the company? I know I was wrong. I just love you too much…”
“No. let’s go back.” There were no emotions in Cormac’s voice or expression, which made Helen feel unease somehow. She couldn’t help thinking, who did he call just now?
At the same time, in the hospital,
Loredana was sent to the operating room. And Sampson waited outside. He felt unease and kept checking the operating room through the small window.
About an hour later, the door of the operating room opened and Loredana was pushed out. Sampson hurriedly stepped forward, “How is she?”
The doctor took the mask off and said, “Because of overwork, she got the sign of miscarriage. She is fine now. But she needs to rest more, otherwise, she may not be so lucky next time.”
“I understand.” Sampson pushed Loredana into the ward.
Loredana looked at Sampson and said sincerely, “Thank you for always helping me.” Loredana appreciated Sampson for always helping when needed.
“It’s ok as long as you are fine.” Sampson showed the gentle smile that he always had.
“You paid the hospital money for me. I am sorry, I don’t have money to pay back yet.” Loredana pulled her dry lips.
“Don’t talk about this now, you need to rest.” Sampson didn’t like her treating him always politely as if he was just an outsider of her heart.
Entering the ward, Loredana looked at him, “Can you please call my mother to come here.”
She didn’t want to cause Sampson too much trouble.
Sampson thought she missed Maxina. After all, when people were vulnerable, they always wanted their relatives by their side.
