Chapter 428
Stop keeping me in the dark, always lost in your own thoughts–we’re almost there, we’ll be at the hospital in no time”
Sherilyn leaned against him, silent. At this moment, she felt like she couldn’t understand Gilbert anymore.
His heart had never truly been with her. Did it not bother him, the thought of having a child
with a woman he didn’t love?
They were getting closer to the hospital.
And Sherilyn’s pain was becoming unbearable, suddenly, she opened her eyes wide and gripped Gilbert’s hand tightly.
“Gilbert!”
“I’m here!” Gilbert’s heart skipped a beat. “What’s wrong?”
“1,1… As Sherilyn spoke, tears streamed down her face, and she could feel it, “I, I… I’m bleeding…”
What?? To a pregnant woman, bleeding meant…
Gilbert knew all too well what it could mean. The memory of Caroline’s miscarriage four years ago was still vivid in his mind!
He held Sherilyn’s hand tightly and kissed it.
“It’s going to be okay, it has to be.”
Though he said that, his voice was shaking uncontrollably. He knew the situation was dire.
Holding Sherilyn close, he shouted to his subordinate, “Hurry up! Go faster!”
“Mr. Gilbert,” the subordinate replied, trembling, “We’re going as fast as we can!”
Even Mr. Gilbert was helpless at this moment.
Sherilyn clutched his hand, her eyes brimming with tears. Gilbert kissed her eyes gently.
“Don’t cry, it’s not over yet…”
He continued, “It’s okay, even if, even if…”
Gilbert’s voice was choked with emotion, unable to finish his sentence, just murmuring vaguely.
“We’re still young, we’ll have another chance…”
“No, no!”
Sherilyn’s eyes were red with crying, shaking her head, “I want this one!”

“Okay okay! Gilbert nodded frantically, trying to comfort her, “We’ll have this one! Nothing will happent
Sherilyn looked at him, speechless.
What did he know?
His attempts to comfort her were futile! He just didn’t get it, he knew nothing!
Losing this child meant she wasn’t just losing a child, but also Jenna’s hope!
Suddenly, the car stopped.
The subordinate got out first and opened the door, “Mr. Gilbert, we’re here!”
“Sherilyn, we’ve arrived!”
Gilbert carried Sherilyn out of the car, and Charles was already there, with medical staff rushing over with a stretcher.
Gilbert placed Sherilyn on the stretcher, holding her hand, “It’ll be alright, everything will be
soon
“Gilbert!” The moment their hands parted, Sherilyn cried out, “Save our baby! Please, save it!” “Of course! Don’t worry!”
As the wheels rolled across the floor, Sherilyn was pushed into the emergency room.
From behind the curtain, outside voices could be heard.
“Mr. Gilbert, this is the head of obstetrics.”
“Doctor, my wife, and my child, I entrust them to your care!”
In such a critical moment, Gilbert didn’t forget to show his respect to the obstetrics head; the lives of his wife and child were at stake.
“Please, save my wife, and above all, our baby! Please, I’m begging you!”
“Mr. Johnson, please, I’ll do my utmost.”
Sherilyn closed her eyes, tears sliding down the corners.
After a brief exchange, the curtain was pulled back, and the obstetrician, fully geared up, stood before Sherilyn.
“Mrs. Johnson, I’m going to start the examination now.”
