*************Chapter 550********************
He spoke with a somewhat stiff tone. He found himself always at a loss when he saw her tears. Even his hand was a little stiff as he wiped her tears.
Grace tried hard to hold back her tears at that. She was now a mother who desperately hoped the babies in her belly were alright!
The doctor did various tests on Grace, but their brows were furrowed all the time. Their face was grave, especially during her ultrasound scan.
“What’s the matter? Doctor, are the babies… okay?” asked Grace, whose main concern at the moment was the three babies in her womb.
The three children seemed to have added new hope to her already gloomy life.
The doctor replied, “The babies are doing okay, but you’re not doing so well. You’ve injured your womb before, so having three babies is a bit too much for your body. I’m going to recommend a pregnancy reduction.”
“Pregnancy reduction?” Grace’s pupils immediately shrunk.
The doctor was done with the ultrasound scan. As they put away the ultrasound equipment, they said, “Yes, pregnancy reduction. We usually recommend the average pregnant woman to undergo a pregnancy reduction as well if they’re having three babies, not to mention a pregnant woman under your circumstances.”
Grace naturally knew what it meant to have a pregnancy reduction. It meant killing a little life in her belly to stop the baby from growing and dying… in the way it was now.
“But you’re 13 weeks pregnant, so you’ve missed the best time for pregnancy reduction. The risks are much higher if you want to do it.”
“What kind of risk?” Jason, who had been silent all along, suddenly asked.
The doctor replied, “In the worst case, it could lead to a miscarriage. Of course, the odds are slim if we’re the ones doing the surgery.”
“Will it endanger the mother’s life?” There was a rare touch of tension in Jason’s voice.
“It’s unlikely to endanger her life, but bleeding, intrauterine infection, organ damage, and other conditions can occur during pregnancy reduction surgeries… Given Mrs. Reed’s current physical condition, there’s very little chance of future pregnancies in the event of a miscarriage.” The doctor laid out every possible case.
Jason’s face was grave. Having three babies was already risky, but they were now stuck in a dilemma.
However, it was not difficult for him to make a decision. He cared more about her than the babies!
He knew how hard it was for her to get pregnant when he fell in love with her, and it was likely that they would never have children. He did not care at the time. Now, he would regret it a little, but he knew what he cared about the most.
“Then go ahead with the pregnancy reduction,” said Jason.
Grace vetoed quickly. “No! I don’t want a pregnancy reduction!”
Jason frowned and glared at Grace. “Do you know what it means if you don’t have a pregnancy reduction?”
“I know!” She took a deep breath. “But now that I have a higher risk with the pregnancy reduction and I might lose all three babies, why don’t I try to keep all three babies?”
she had a pregnancy reduction, though she would be safe, the babies were at risk. However, she would be in as much danger as the babies if she went ahead without the pregnancy reduction.
As a lawyer, she should always remain calm and rational. She should know what was best, but she wanted to risk her life and bet that she and the babies could all be safe.
Maybe it was because she… wanted so badly to be a mother and have a family of her own!
If she ended up losing all her babies because of the pregnancy reduction, she would surely live in regret for the rest of her life.
In the hospital’s ultrasound room, Grace and Jason stared into each other’s eyes. Both of them were standing their ground while the doctor beside them kept quiet.
After a long time, Jason turned to the doctor nearby and said,
“Give me a risk a**essment report later. I want to know just how risky it is!”
“Okay, Mr. Reed,” the doctor replied quickly.
On the other hand, in Brian’s mansion. Patrick looked at his best friend who was sitting on the couch with a pale face and joked, “You’re so unlucky lately. You were involved in a car accident when your hand had only gotten a little bit better. I heard you were involved in that car accident to save a woman. Could the woman be Grace?”
Patrick talked about the gossip he had heard. Grace was the first person who came to his mind when he heard Brian had been trying to save a woman.
It seemed that besides the woman Brian grew up looking for, Grace was the only woman Brian ever cared about!
However, after Brian found the woman named Stella, he was merely nice to Stella but it was not the same as how he treated
Grace.
At best, he provided Stella with a lot of material things. Sometimes, there was subtle estrangement and indifference in the way Brian took Stella to parties. It was very different from the way he was with Grace.
Come to think of it, only Grace could make Brian do such a life-forsaking thing to save another person!
Brian rolled his eyes at Patrick. “You’re certainly well-informed.”
Patrick said with a grin, “No, no. But you didn’t tell me you were hurt and I had to learn about it from someone else. What’s the matter? Are you afraid that I’ll come and get in the way of you. getting close to her? You must’ve won her heart by saving her life this time, right?”
Brian lowered his eyes slightly, and he had a flashback of the thin figure that rushed out to stop his car as it left the mansion that morning.
‘She was so pale and haggard, but she held on just to see me! However, she only wanted to see me for Chase Harper!
‘I would die for her, but she seems willing to risk her life for Chase Harper.
‘She can trust Chase Harper without any evidence in his favor, relying on just his words. What’s so good about Chase Harper that she’ll trust him so deeply?’
Brian once again felt reluctant and jealous.
He would let her know that Chase Harper deserved it and that she should never trust him at all!
“What’s the matter? That look on your face… Don’t tell me Grace hasn’t fall for you yet? is it possible that she’s what in love with Jaso sa Patrick
Brian’s face immediately darkened at that
Patrick knew he had meepoken and quickly laughed dryly “Haha,
@’s just a joke Jason and Grace have already broken up Jason was also indifferent to Grace when we were at Tianxiang Pavilion’s private room last time. He’s probably not interested in Grace anymore.”
Patrick had just finished speaking when a WeChat special alert notification rang on his phone.
He only set up special alerts for a few fair-weather friends he kept in touch with
He picked up the phone and casually glanced at the message he received. However, his eyes widened after seeing the contents of the message. He was full of disbelief.
Brian, who was sitting next to Patrick, said doubtfully, “What’s the matter? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
‘Exactly!’ Patrick really felt as if he had seen a ghost.
Especially… when Brian was right in front of him and they had just talked about… Jason and Grace.
Patrick felt that the message he saw was like a slap in the face!
