Byron quickly sniffed the oatmeal but didn’t smell the strange smell.
“It tastes the same as before, and I didn’t let the cook put anything.”
But she still resisted when he put the spoon to Cora’s lips.
“I can’t eat it. How about you buy me some tacos?”
The problem came to Byron again.
In his eyes, tacos were fast food and unhealthy.
Now that Cora was pregnant, her request to eat unhealthy food challenged his bottom line.
But as soon as he met Cora’s eyes with expectation, and it was the first time that Cora had asked him for something since they had a quarrel, Byron couldn’t bear to refuse her.
“Okay then. I’ll be back in a while,”
he said.
In about 20 minutes, he brought freshly made tacos.
He didn’t like tacos, and the smell made him frown all the way. But seeing that Cora worked up an appetite and ate many of them, he felt everything was worth it.
But halfway through the meal, Cora burst into tears for no reason.
“What’s the matter? Is something wrong?”
Byron hurriedly came to her, wanting to take the taco from Cora’s hand.
But Cora refused.
“No. It’s just I haven’t eaten something that doesn’t make me sick for several days.”
As she spoke, her hand lightly fell on her lower abdomen.
She murmured in her heart repeatedly,
“Baby, this should be what you want to eat the most, right?
Then I’ll eat more. Please don’t blame me. I don’t know what to do…”
Just now, Cora made an appointment on the mobile phone for the hospital’s painless abortion.
Early tomorrow morning, she would find a chance to get rid of the child.
So in the few hours left, she hoped the child would live happily and not hate her and Byron.
If there were an afterlife, she hoped the child would be born into an ordinary family and live a healthy and happy life.
Seeing Cora cry, Byron was puzzled.
But after hearing Cora’s explanation, he did recall that she had a poor appetite recently and occasionally would feel nauseous after eating the food.
He suddenly blamed himself more and more. If he had found something to suit her appetite earlier, she wouldn’t have been so happy that she would cry just after eating tacos.
“Don’t cry. From tomorrow, I will try my best to arrange some things you like to eat. Of course, if you have anything you want to eat, just tell me.”
“Okay. Then I’ll have hamburgers and fried chicken.”
Byron suddenly felt a headache.
They were still junk food!
But it was rare to see Cora showing a smiling face. So he abandoned his principle and compromised.
“Then I’ll buy them for you tomorrow.”
He looked at Cora’s smiling eyes almost infatuatedly.
Just like what he promised her when she was asleep, no matter what she wanted, he would give it to her, even if she wanted his life, as long as she didn’t abandon him and the child.
It might be because Cora was in a good mood that she didn’t feel nauseous after eating. Cora allowed
Byron to sleep in her bed that night.
It was like an amnesty for Byron.
Before this, Cora was repulsed by his touch, let alone lying on the same bed with him.
So he slept on the sofa in the suite of the ward last night.
He was prepared to sleep on the sofa tonight and even brought the quilt and pillows there.
He didn’t expect Cora to let him go to bed.
The surprise came a bit suddenly. Of course, Byron wouldn’t refuse. He got into the quilt, hugged Cora from her back into his arms, and put his palm on her belly.
“Baby, you have to be good. Your mom has been through a lot. So don’t make her feel uncomfortable.
Otherwise, she may leave us,”
he whispered as if coaxing the baby and enlightening Cora.
Cora almost shed tears when she heard his low, hoarse, and deep voice.
She was reluctant to part with Byron and the child, either.
But if she unswervingly chose him and the child, how could she face Gabe?
She had been beset with miseries in the tug-of-war between reason and emotion.
How she wished that time would freeze at this moment.
In this way, she could be with the child and him forever.
But time was so ruthless.
Whether people were happy or not, looking forward to it or not, it always flew silently.
It was the next day in a blink of an eye.
Byron answered Carter’s call early in the morning. He said someone saw Archer at the Maple Blue
Hotel under the Hansen Group.
“I’ll go and check it out now.”
Byron soon got dressed and was about to go out.
But at this moment, Cora hugged his arm and acted like a baby, saying,
“Can I go downstairs to find
Sally later? I’m really bored here alone.”
“Then don’t be too long. You need to rest more now.”
Byron knew it wasn’t good to keep her in the ward.
In addition, the doctor checked her just now, saying the child had stabilized a lot, and asked Byron to take Cora for a walk occasionally.
But now he hurried to catch Archer and could only come back to accompany her after dealing with the matter.
“Where are you going?”
Cora showed a rare concern about him.
“I need to take care of some things, and I’ll bring you hamburgers and fried chicken when I get back.”
Byron didn’t want her to know too many bloody things, so he briefly explained.
When Cora heard about hamburgers and fried chicken, her eyes lit up immediately.
“Okay, okay. It would be great if I could have coke.”
Byron pinched her face, saying,
“You wish.”
After they joked and laughed for a while, Byron left.
But the moment he left, Cora’s smile disappeared completely, as if it had never appeared.
Cora told the bodyguard that she would go downstairs to find her bosom friend. Soon, she entered the operating room.
She made an appointment for an abortion operation. The doctors were all her acquaintances, so she went there unimpeded.
At this moment, she was lying on the operating table.
The one who would operate on her was Marcia, a doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department.
“Dr. Lane, have you thought it over? The baby is quite healthy.”
Except for the people in the emergency room and the VIP ward, only a few knew about Cora’s fainting and being sent to the VIP ward.
Even the doctor caring for Cora was an expert hired by Byron from abroad.
Marcia heard that someone suddenly donated a lot of money to the hospital to upgrade the maternity equipment. But she was not gossipy, so she didn’t know that these things were related to Cora.
“I have already thought it over, and I’m going to divorce soon, so…”
Marcia nodded. Then, she signaled to her assistant to put on an intravenous drip for Cora.
The operating light was on. Cora looked at the strong light above her head. She felt her heart seemed to be torn into several pieces.
Her baby would be mercilessly deprived of life before she had time to see this world.
And Cora was the ruthless executioner…
Tears rolled down her cheeks.
When Byron arrived at the hotel and entered the room where Archer had been seen, there wasn’t anyone in the room.
On the wall, there was a dartboard made of photos of Byron and Cora, and the faces of both of them in the pictures were full of holes pierced by the darts.
“Have you got the monitoring record?”
Byron stared at the dartboard and took a puff of the cigarette.
“Yes. Archer got into a fake-licensed car. We found the car. It had been abandoned on the mountainside. Preliminary, we estimated that he hid in the woods.”
