She had never expected that the man she loved would sell her to a stranger for money. However, she knew nothing about it. She thought she gave her everything to him and the baby she carried was also his. The day she gave birth to the baby, she didn't have a look at her son but learn the news that he died. Years later, a little boy took her back home and hired her to be his mommey.
Elise Ye felt hot.
She felt like she was being scorched by the sun, like all the water in her body had been evaporated.
With beads of sweat running down her forehead, she got closer to the man on top of her to cool down. A few moans later, she heaved and let out a gasp.
And then, with a heavy groan, a soft and comforting pain spread out through her entire body.
She hugged the man tightly and blurted, "Victor, I love you."
The dim light didn't let her notice the man's raised eyebrows.
Nine months later
"Relax! And then just inhale and exhale! Yes! You're almost there! Push!"
Elise clutched the sheets on the cold operating table as a doctor of the First Hospital of Y City encouraged her. She was sweating profusely. A severe pain ran through her body and she involuntary grabbed the arm of the person beside her.
It was unbearable. She was about to faint. She hadn't expected the delivery to hurt this much.
"Elise, come on! Push!"
Although she was in a confused state of mind, Elise recognized the gentle and anxious voice of her husband.
"Victor..."
She must hold on. This was their child, born out of love. She had to be strong.
"Elise, I'm here!"
Victor Chi held her hand anxiously, trying to give her strength. This child was important to him and he couldn't let anything go wrong.
Noticing the concern in Victor's eyes, Elise felt much better. She was exhausted, but she tried to summon up whatever courage she had left. Then she heard a loud cry and the doctor exclaimed.
"Yes! You've done it! It's a boy! Congratulations!"
Elise was almost on the verge of passing out. Upon hearing that, she murmured softly, "That's great, Victor...."
She had done it. She could rest now.
After taking the baby from the doctor, Victor looked at Elise with mixed feelings. He seemed hesitant. After a while, he finally made up his mind.
"The child is dead."
"What did you say, Mr. Chi?" The doctor was stunned. The baby was completely fine. Why was Victor declaring him as a stillborn?
"I said that the baby is dead!"
Victor responded coldly and put an envelope along with a check in front of the doctor.
The doctor dubiously opened the envelope. His face instantly turned pale and his hands began to tremble.
By the time he looked up, Victor had already left with the baby.
"Is it a boy?"
As soon as Victor came out of the delivery room, a man with a cigarette between his lips approached him. Throwing the cigarette away, he pulled off the blanket and looked at the baby. He seemed delighted to notice it was a boy.
"Great! You'll have fifty million dollars!" He reached out to hold the baby. Victor dodged.
"Wait!"
"Are you regretting your decision?" The man frowned and then sneered. "Do you want to keep him now? Don't forget that he is not your child!"
Victor was stunned. But the man was right.
This was not his child.
Nine months ago, his company had been on the brink of bankruptcy. He was in urgent need of funds but no one would help. This man had approached him and offered him a ridiculous sum for a simple favor. Someone else needed a woman to deliver his baby.
The only condition was that the woman had to be a virgin.
Victor had no choice at the time, so he had thought of his girlfriend, Elise. After proposing to her that same day, he had taken her to a hotel room.
However, he hadn't been in the room with her.
The child wasn't his. Victor came to the present and handed the child over without hesitation.
"Good! Otherwise, you will be bankrupt!" The man was about to leave, but Victor stopped him.
"Don't tell anyone about this."
Victor couldn't risk exposure.
"Don't worry, my mouth is shut. I will disappear as soon as the money is transferred. Now hurry up! Your mother is coming."
Victor immediately loosened his grip, and the man ran towards the VIP area with the child in his arms.
In the VIP area, another woman was giving birth.
Her ward was besieged by bodyguards, and several doctors kept coming in and out. They were all grim-faced. It looked like things weren't going well.
After a while, a nurse rolled a medical cart into the ward. After a while, they heard a baby's cry.
The birth had been successful.
The people outside heaved a sigh of relief.
