Was it not his child?

Then whose could it be?

She was at Mercy Hospital, and only Zach and Aaron had visited her.

Was it one of them?

Casper clasped his head, struggling in agony.

After her surgery, Eliza was wheeled into the ward. She stared blankly at the stark white ceiling, her eyes gradually reddening, brimming with tears. She endured, biting her lip tightly, almost to the point of bleeding, not allowing herself to cry out loud.

The door to the ward was gently pushed open, and Casper walked in. He didn't speak, remaining silent for a long time. Just as he was about to speak, Eliza's voice trembled. "Leave, I don't want to see you." He took a deep breath. His brows were tightly furrowed, and he was looking at the pale-faced woman on the bed.

"Whose child was it?"

She glared at him, her eyes filled with deep hatred, like an enraged beast ready to tear everything apart. "Whose it was has nothing to do with you."

Casper raised his hand to rub his face, took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled. His voice carried a barely noticeable tremble. "It was mine, wasn't it?" "Do you deserve it?"

She closed her eyes in pain, tears leaking out, filled with sadness and despair. Her world seemed to collapse at that moment, all hopes and dreams turning to dust.

He wanted to say something. He

didn't know what was filling his chest; he moved his lips a few times,

in

but nothing came out. His large hand tightly held her cold, smal hand She struggled to pull away but couldn't muster the strength.

Casper wanted children and could easily replace any woman to bear his child. He didn't care about Eliza's dwindling chances of becoming a mother. But she cared. That was her courage and hope to live.

She couldn't hold back anymore and cried out painfully. The piercing cry echoed in the empty room, touching everyone's heart.

Casper called Caroline, asking her to come to the hospital to take care of Eliza. Caroline rushed to the hospital, only to replace out about Eliza's miscarriage.

"What happened? Did you hit her?" Caroline frowned slightly, looking at the man with a stern face. "How did she miscarry? She was pregnant. How could you..." "Enough." He ran his fingers through his hair in frustration. "You take care of her. I have to leave for a bit."

"Casper, Eliza had a miscarriage. What could be more important than staying with your wife now? Shouldn't you be comforting her? She was carrying your child."

Caroline grabbed Casper's arm,

pulling him back. Casper was

already upset and suddenly lost his

е

temper. Was it my child she was carrying? If she was carrying my child, why didn't she tell me? If she had told me she was pregnant, I would have never touched her. Go ask her whose child it was!"

Slap.

Caroline gave Casper a sharp slap. "Casper, are you even human? If it's not your child, then whose is it? You're even doubting this. You're really..."

Her fingertips were trembling with anger.

"Yes, I'm the crazy one. I should be locked up in an asylum. I'll go be crazy somewhere else."

Casper left the hospital with a storm of anger. Caroline took deep breaths, trying hard to suppress the frustration in her heart. Then she pushed open the door to the ward and went in. "Eliza." Caroline's voice was soft and gentle, as if afraid to disturb Eliza. "Are you okay?"
