Chapter 1

When the criminal rushed into the hospital with a knife,

my doctor fiancé pushed me away and stood in front of him without hesitation, but he turned around and held Sarah tightly in his arms.

I was stabbed several times in the abdomen, and the baby I had finally conceived was in danger.

He was the only person in the hospital who could perform surgery to save my baby, but he could not be contacted.

The day after I lost my child, I woke up in the morning and saw Sarah’s Insgram:

"Your chest is the strongest and safest harbor in the world!" with a picture showing her delicate hand placed on his bare chest.

I took a screenshot with trembling hands and sent it to him.

"Is this why you pushed me away?"

Two days later, he finally replied to the message.

"You are a war correspondent. What is there to be afraid of for a woman like you who dares to go to the battlefield? She is a timid little woman unlike you!"

————

"Steve, let's break up!"

Since I was a child, I had a dream of becoming a war correspondent, but I deviated from the dream and met him.

After dating him for five years, then I finally became his legitimate fiancée. I thought that we were true love and it would bring happiness.

But I didn't expect that my dream would become a decent reason for him to push me away and turn around to protect Sarah.

The doctor said that my uterus had been severely damaged and the chances of getting pregnant again were almost zero.

That "fetus" which was not yet formed and had not had the chance to see this world was my only bloodline in my life.

After begging the doctor for a long time, he finally agreed to let me take my "blood" away.

I didn't protect it well when it was alive. Now it had gone, I shall find a quiet place for it and hoped it could be reborn into a happy family in his next life if there had been one.

I placed it under a big tree on the sunny side of the mountain where got sunlight when it was cold and shade when it was hot.

Looking at the small mound in front of me, I felt like sinking in an ice sea and I could barely breathe.

It shouldn't have come quietly and left in obscurity. Besides me, at least Steve should remember it.

I dialed his number, but the familiar ringtone came from the top of the mountain behind me.

I stood behind a big tree and watched him frown and hang up my phone impatiently.

Then he turned around and gently supported his childhood sweetheart Sarah White.

"Just tell me what you want to do and I'll do it. Why bother coming all the way here?"

When he was with me, Steve often said, "I'm very tired, could you please stop bothering me?"

Therefore, I did everything myself and never asked him to do it.

Now it seemed that he just believed I was unworthy.

"The conspirator said that I've been unlucky recently because a villain carved my name on the coffin and took it into the grave."

"She has calculated this location. I would be uneasy if I didn't find it myself!"

As they were talking, they came down the mountain and naturally found me sitting next to the big tree.

Steve's face suddenly turned gloomy and he glared at me unhappily.

"Why are you here?"

This was the place where he and I confirmed our relationship, and it was also the place where he proposed to me and had that "baby". It was truly normal for me to be here.

But an unreasonable person would never thought so much and he just questioned me self-righteously.

"Are you following me?"

"May Queen, endless phone bombing and personal stalking! Please, I'm not a criminal, can you give me some privacy?"

Talking to an unreasonable person was like talking to a deaf person. I didn't want to argue with him in front of the "baby", so I turned around and wanted to leave.

But my way was blocked by Sarah. She turned her back to Steve and raised her eyebrows at me triumphantly.

"May, please don't be angry with Brother Steve for me!"

"The sight of the criminals rushing in with knives a few days ago was so terrifying. I still feel scared when I think about it now!"

"I was too scared to stay alone, so I asked Brother Steve to stay with me! By the way, May, are you okay?"

The wound on my stomach was aching slightly. The doctor said if it was a little more severe, it would hurt my liver. Then, I would be dead.

I was closest to Steve when the chaos happened that day.

He was a doctor and his hands cannot tolerate any harm. I stepped forward without hesitation and put him behind me.

I have imagined countless possibilities, but I didn't expect that he would give me a hard push from behind.

Caught off guard, I stumbled into the man's knife.

But he didn't even look at me and disappeared from sight holding Sarah.

"None of your business!"

Chapter 2

"May, Sarah is kind enough to care about you, how did you say that?"

Steve came over and protected her behind him like an old hen.

"In the past, I often quarreled with Steve for Sarah, and I stubbornly wanted to prove that I was the first in his heart."

"Thinking about it now, it’s really ridiculous to deceive myself."

"At the critical moment of life and death, my beautiful dream was ruthlessly shattered."

"I used to think that crying was a sign of sadness, but now I understand that when one was hurt to the extreme, it was silence that the sign of a dead heart."

"I thank her for her kindness, but sorry, I don't need it!"

"Please make way!"

I didn't want to get involved any further, so I turned and left.

After taking a few steps, Steve caught up with me.

"What did you want to say on the phone just now? How are you? Have you got hurt that day?"

I didn't want to say what I wanted to say just now.

He was the one who caused my injury in the first place. He had ignored me for so many days. What was this now? Was this just false sympathy?

"You really care about me. Why didn't you come home to visit me these days?"

I lowered my head and continued on my way.

"You konw, doctor is a busy job, I can't get away."

I stopped and turned my head to look carefully at the man in front of me whom I had loved for so many years. It turned out that he could lie so frankly.

I injured my abdomen that night, and the only surgeon in that hospital who was capable of saving the fetus was him.

But he hurriedly took annual leave and could not be contacted.

"Steve Green, you didn't read my message, did you?"

"It doesn't matter if you haven't seen it. I'm telling you right now, let's break up!"

His face turned stiff in an instant, his pupils filled with shock and disbelief.

"Why?"

"Just because I protected Sarah that day, you want to break up with me unreasonably. Is that necessary?"

"Her foot was injured. Besides, if she hadn't accompanied you to the hospital, would she have been so frightened that she couldn't sleep every night? May, you have to be conscientious."

I sneered and looked at the man in front of me who was making unreasonable arguments.

That day I just went for a check-up and prepared to create a file, and unexpectedly ran into Sarah at the hospital gate.

According to him, it was she who accompanied me to the hospital to see him.

"Steve, God is watching what you do, and you are not right just because you speak louder."

"Why did you push me that day? You know it better than anyone else!"

Steve frowned, very impatient with my ignorance.

"May, could you please stop being unreasonable!"

"You are a man who dares to go to the battlefield, why are you afraid of that little gangster? She is different, she is timid, she needs my care!"

Seeing that I didn't say anything, he paced on the spot a few steps in annoyance and grabbed my shoulders.

"May, it's my fault this time. I didn't stand up to protect you in time."

"Next time this happens, I will protect you behind me immediately, okay?"

Stubbornly slapped his hand away, I didn't want to say another word.

"I've already apologized, what else do you want?"

I stared into his eyes coldly, word by word.

"I want to break up, just because I don't love you anymore and don't want you anymore!"

"As for who you want to accompany and who you want to protect, it has nothing to do with me."

Seeing that I was not moved, Steve panicked and walked up to me and grabbed my hand.

Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Sarah's voice behind him.

"Steve, I found it. I found the dirty thing that the master mentioned!"

Chapter 3

Subconsciously, I looked back like Steve did. After seeing their actions clearly, I ignored the pain in my wounds and ran up the mountain for my life.

"Stop it, stop it!"

Over there, Sarah was directing the people who followed to dig up the small mound of earth.

The small crystal box was turned over and thrown at Sarah's feet in a mess.

I was afraid that she would do something out of line again, so I rushed forward and pushed her to the ground, holding the crystal box tightly in my arms.

"Don’t be afraid, baby. Don’t be afraid, baby. Mom will protect you."

"Bang!"

Steve, who had caught up with me, hurriedly helped Sarah up, then turned around and slapped me hard.

"It's just a broken box, May, why are you so mad!"

Sarah sobbed and looked at him pitifully.

"Steve, the thing in May's hand is the dirty thing that conspirator said that is harming me!"

Steve looked at the box in my arms with a gloomy look.

"I had no idea what they were talking about, but I had a feeling they were going to hurt my "baby". So, I subconsciously grabbed the crystal box and ran away."

But with my injuries on my body, I was no match for them and they caught up with me after just a few steps.

They restrained my arms, and Steve coldly snatched the crystal box from my hands.

"Steve, please, please, give it back to me."

"Except for this, I will agree to any conditions you ask. Please, give it back to me!"

Steve patted my face and lifted my chin.

"May, it's a pity that you don't master in performance. You were so stubborn just a second ago, but now you're kneeling down and begging for mercy for this worthless rubbish."

"Your method of trying to get my attention is really disgusting. How about this, you apologize to Sarah first!"

"My baby was lost because of her, and now it's her who dug out it."

"How could I be willing to apologize to her? I wished she was dead!"

"Steve, that's not garbage, that's your baby..."

"Brother Steve, look, there are words on the bottom of the box, and it happens to be my name!"

Steve was attracted by Sarah's words and didn't hear a word I said.

They pointed and talked at the bottom of the crystal box.

Steve walked towards me step by step, his eyes full of contempt.

"May, just to be jealous, I didn't expect you to resort to such despicable means."

"I didn't understand what he was talking about and shook my head vigorously."

"In order to win my favor, you actually used the corpses of cats and dogs to curse Sarah. No wonder she sprained her ankle and encountered criminals recently."

"It's all your fault, isn't it?"

Steve, who had always been a firm materialist, actually believed Sarah's lies.

"No, no, there's nothing in there, it's my..."

Steve sneered and was too impatient to listen to my explanation.

"May, you take me for a fool. If it wasn't to frame Sarah, why is the letter "S" and "W" engraved on the bottom of this box?"

"S.W." is not Sarah White, but Simon William, which was the name I gave to my baby.

But Steve no longer listened to any of my explanations and he held the box high up.

"May, don't you treasure this box? I'll show you what happens if you don't obey me!"

He threw the box heavily.

I watched the box fly high into the air, then fall heavily and break into pieces. The tightly wrapped "baby" inside rolled out and rolled all the way to the foot of the mountain.

I didn't know where the strength came from, I shook off the person who was holding me down, and ran towards my "baby" regardless of everything.

It's just that I ran too slowly, too slowly.

Just when I was about to catch up with it, a wild dog suddenly ran out from the side and swallowed it in one bite.

My baby, my baby...

Everything went dark before my eyes and I fell headfirst.
