I nodded, “Yes.”
Aaron covered his face with his hands in excitement, then stood up again, and paced back and forth. Anyone could see the excitement he was feeling at that moment.
“Honey, I love you.” He leaned over and k**sed me hard onthe l*ps, giving me a warm hug.
It was the scene I had anticipated.But for some reason, I wasn’t happy at all.
I knew exactly what I was struggling with.
Lukita!.
“Sweetheart,” Aaron knelt on one knee, gripping my handtightly and affectionately. “Will you marry me? I want to give you and our child a complete family. I swear, I will protect our family for the rest of my life. No one can separate us.”
Aaron’s tone was more uplifting than usual, and I could sense his excitement.
He seemed genuine about it.
Perhaps it was the encouragement from his affectionate blue eyes that gave me an invisible push. A surge of strength coursed through my body.
“Aaron,”I took a deep breath, trying to supp**ss myexcitement and apprehension at this moment.
“Do you love me?”
“Is it not obvious enough?” Aaron leaned down to k**s theback of my hand, his l*ps curling into a charming smile.
“Then…who is Lukita?” I gathered my courage and finallyvoiced the question that had been weighing on my heart for a long time.
I saw the smile freeze on Aaron’s face.
He suddenly fell silent, his blue eyes were still staring atme, but they were no longer affectionate as before.
Instead, I felt indifference.
In that instant, it felt like there was a galaxy separating the man before me.
“How do you know that name?” Aaron’s voice grew low,each word pronounced syllable by syllable.
“Who told you? Colston?”
My tears instantly overflowed, rushing out like a broken dam.
In that instant, my heart shattered into countless pieces, scattered all over the ground. Once the wind blew, it could never be pieced back together.
There was no need for further questioning. Aaron’s reaction had already revealed everything – Lukita was the most important person in his heart. I could never compare to her.
I easily withdrew my hand, and Aaron hardly stopped me.
“I’m not a substitute for anyone,” my voice choked. “I havemy dignity, and I deserve complete love!”
Aaron didn’t respond to my breakdown.
My heart sank little by little.
This hurt more than when I found out about his fiancee and their impending engagement!Aaron was an exp**ssive person, and the love he gave me was passionate and fervent. But what captivated me was every de tail of how he had endured for me.
I couldn’t imagine how deeply he must have loved that woman to keep her firmly in his heart. No one could mention her, including me.
A tremendous sense of helplessness overwhelmed me.
I didn’t need to know who Lukita was or to compare us to see who was more beautiful or talented. In Aaron’s heart, she was the most important.
From the very beginning, I had suffered a crushing defeat.
“You should go,” I turned my body away from Aaron.
It was quiet in the ward, with no sound for a long time. But I knew he was still there.
At this point, even I wasn’t sure what I was still hoping for. But the longer he remained silent, the more a glimmer of despair grew within me.
What was he hesitating about? Was it possible for him to change his mind?
Time passed, and just as a glimmer of hope started to fl**ker in my heart, I turned my head to look back.
“You have a good rest.” Aaron’s voice echoed.
Then, his footsteps gradually faded away.The door was opened and closed again.
The hospital room fell into a dead silence.
I held my posture of about to turn around and slowly lay back on the bed, with my tears streaming down incessantly.
He would not come back—I just knew it.
The feeling of a broken heart was more painful than death itself. The agony of having my soul forcibly torn apart s wept through my entire body, reaching the deepest part of my being. I couldn’t stop crying, as if I wanted to shed all the tears of my life.
“Wake up… sweetie, wake up.”
Suddenly, the whole world began to sway, and my body was gently shaken by a pair of hands.
I opened my eyes and saw the worried faces of my parents.
“Sweetie, are you okay?” Kristy asked softly.
“Baby, are you okay?” Kristy asked softly.
“Does it hurt a lot? Is the analgesia pump not working?”Chris was also worried.
But I wasn’t in the mood to answer them. I noticed that they had changed their clothes. After a brief blank in my mind, my brain gradually started functioning again. I turned my head to look outside the window—it was already daytime.”Nothing.”I reached out and wiped away the tears on myface haphazardly. “I just had a dream.”
There was no Aaron at all.
No Aaron, no proposal, no confession. It was just a dream.
“Sweetie, didn’t you know you are pregnant?” Kristy askedme cautiously. “Yesterday, after you woke up and learned this news, you fell into a deep sleep again. And now, you’re crying in your dream.
Did something bad happen to you in the United States and Germany?”
“I’ve been asleep for a whole day?” I was somewhatsurprised.
I thought it was just a dream, but it turned out that I had been unconscious for so long. It seemed that I was truly weak now.
“How is the baby?” I subconsciously touched my abdomen.
“There were some symptoms of threatened miscarriage,but they have been controlled. There isn’t enough medical equipment for a more comprehensive examination. The doctor is only sure that the baby is still alive,” Kristy said, hesitating once again. “Sweetie, do you want us to contact the father of the child?”
“No need,” I rejected the suggestion without hesitation.
I couldn’t let Aaron know!
