“Ouch...” Karen murmured, waking up from the searing pain that radiated throughout her body, and was momentarily stunned to see the white ceiling above her.
She recalled the last image before she lost consciousness, the twisted and sinister smile on Sues face...
“Ms. Karen, you’re awake!” the doctor exclaimed, his eyes filled with a complex mix of amazement and pity.
“Good news and bad news... but for you, the good news isn’t really good either,” he said.
“You fell from a height of over twenty meters, and the branches that cushioned your fall kept your unborn child safe and sound. It’s a miracle!”
“The bad news is that your injuries require treatment, and the medication will affect the child, potentially causing deformities...” Karen was shocked and clutched the doctors white coat, asking, “Can I forgo the medication?”
“It’s possible, but the pain will be unbearable...”
“That’s enough, thank you,” Karen replied.
The doctor nodded sympathetically and left the room.
Ian entered shortly after, not calling out to the doctor to inquire about Karen’s condition. His face, as indifferent as a statue, showed no concern for Karen’s well-being.
Karen was used to his cold treatment, but this time, her eyes welled up with tears, and she choked out, “Ian, it was Sarah who pushed me off the cliff...”
“No, your fall was due to dizziness caused by your pregnancy,” Ian interrupted her, coldly concluding.
Karen looked at the man in disbelief, trembling slightly.
This marriage was something she had insisted on, and he had never taken it seriously.
But there had to be a limit to his indifference!
“Even if it’s a matter of life and death for both of us, do you not care at all?”
“Unfortunately, it’s not, is it?” Ian lightly opened his thin lips, curving into a heartless smile.
Karen felt a wrenching pain in her abdomen, connected to her torn heart, and it hurt so much that her voice rose.
“Sarah is a murderer! I want to sue her!”
“If you dare to utter a single word out of turn, I’ll make sure your child dies in the womb,” Ian’s cold gaze fell on her abdomen, chilling as if he was looking at something unrelated to him.
“Later, when the police come to take your statement, you know how to answer, right?”
Karen’s suppressed tears finally slid down her cheeks, seen by Ian as self-inflicted drama.
Seeing her cry, his handsome and stern face lowered, approaching her with a sneer, “Regretting it? When you used that video to blackmail me into marrying you, you should have known there would be no good days ahead.”
That video...
Karen saw her pitiful appearance reflected in Ian’s dark pupils, and she couldn’t help but blink hard, evaporating her tears.
The door to the ward was pushed open, and Sarah ran in, throwing herself into Ian’s arms, crying, “Ian, I told them it was Karen who fell on her own, but they don’t believe me...”
The “they” referred to the two men in uniform behind her.
Seeing Sarah’s face, which bore an eightfold resemblance to Sue’s, filled with grievance, Ian’s gaze softened, and he comforted her, “Don’t worry, she will clear your name.”
The police walked in, introduced themselves briefly, and got straight to the point, “Karen, who was with you before the fall?”
Karen’s fists clenched tightly, “It was my dizziness, I didn’t stand firm.”
“What?”
“Caused by pregnancy-related dizziness, that’s how it happened.”
After saying this, she lay down with difficulty, covering herself with the blanket, isolating herself from the outside world.
The child, the most important thing now is the child.
She wants to give birth smoothly and doesn’t want any more complications.
The police nodded and turned to leave.
Since the victim said so, the case could be closed.
Ian looked at the thin, trembling outline under the sheet, and a slight ripple stirred in his heart, but then he thought that allowing her to give birth to the child was already an act of kindness.
Sarah asked with concern, “Ian, is Karen okay?”
“Can’t die.”
The three cold words, instead, made Karen smile.
She pulled down the sheet, staring at Ian, and said word by word, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I’m just so tough, and I will occupy the position of Mrs. Yan for the rest of my life, never giving up!”
