Chapter 2: Pregnant
When Sabrina opened her eyes, a white ceiling greeted her sight. She found out that she was brought to the hospital. With a faint groan, she tried to sit up. She held her stomach as she felt like throwing up but she endured it.
She glanced at the empty room absentmindedly. The events leading to her collapse flooded back into her consciousness. She imagined her husband Dominique and his mistress, Sasha, laughing at her sarcastically as they rejoiced for her misery.
Gritting her teeth, Sabrina hugged her knees close to her chest as she buried her face. Despite the physical discomfort and emotional pain, a steely resolve flickered in her eyes.
’I won’t sign the divorce papers. I will not allow them to get married. I will run away from him as far as I can... But someday... I’ll return to get everything back– the company and my family’s fortune.’
As she sat there, collecting her thoughts, the door slid open and a doctor entered the room. The doctor greeted her with a warm smile.
"Mrs. Smith. Your examination result just came out. Congratulations! You are four weeks pregnant!" The doctor delivered the piece of good news, thinking that Sabrina would feel over the moon.
But instead, Sabrina’s face turned pale. She was rendered speechless, utterly shocked. If not for Dominique’s betrayal, she would feel overjoyed after hearing this news.
Her happiness was not complete, because she was aware that she had to raise this child alone... away from her deceitful husband.
After a few seconds, a single tear streamed down her face, but she immediately wiped it away, realizing the doctor was still there.
"Doc, who brought me here?" Part of her was hoping that Dominique still cared about her.
