Chapter 679
Three-thirty in the evening?
Edwin looked at the time and realized that it was already three in the evening.
That idiotic woman! How could she not tell him before she decided to get rid of his child?!
Edwin hopped onto his red Ferrate and sped all the way to the hospital, running over
multiple red lights. He eventually managed to arrive at the hospital in 20 minutes.
He had called the hospital earlier to inform them to not proceed with the abortion for a
woman with the last name 'Winters'. However, since Joanne was a celebrity, she might have
provided a different name to the hospital.
It was a private hospital, thus they were not too strict on your identities. As long as one had
the money, everything could be done anonymously.
There were too many women with a 3:30 p.m. appointment. Most of them were there for a
surgical abortion, but some were there for the pill since taking the pill at the hospital was
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsafer than doing it at home.
Edwin had no idea which one of them was Joanne.
He sprinted to the gynecological operation room. The doctors and nurses were all waiting
anxiously for Edwin, and all procedures at the time had been urgently halted.
Edwin was drenched in sweat, even though it was winter, and his face filled with anxiety and panic.
If Joanne had gone on and killed his child, he swore to kill her next!
Edwin paced and waited by the corridor, yet he was unable to find her.
He thought she might have been hiding, considering that she was a celebrity, so he decided to ask the head of the
department directly.
The man looked through the appointment schedule as he asked anxiously, "Mister Atherton, are you certain that
the woman you’re looking for is Winters?"
"Yes, Winters. The pregnancy is probably around three weeks." Edwin provided all the information he had in mind.
The man looked through over and over again and lastly was able to spot a woman with the last name Winters that
fitted the description, only the age provided was a year older.
"Miss Winters had completed the procedure and left the hospital."
"It's done?" Edwin was in disbelief. "But her appointment is in two minutes..."
A nurse thought of something and added, "The lady was sobbing hard, kept on telling US how the baby should not
be brought to this world and begged for US to do it sooner. We had a patient who missed the appointment, so we
gave her an earlier slot..."
The nurse finished her sentence and felt Edwin's blade like glare as if he was going to murder her. She staggered a
few steps back in fear.
Edwin felt his last hope had been snatched from him.
When Grandma told him that Joanne was pregnant, he thought that Joanne had done it on purpose.
He thought she had purposely chosen not to take birth control pills and avoided him by flying to another country,
and when she became pregnant, she would come back to the country and use the pregnancy against him.
However, Grandma had always wanted a great grandchild. If Joanne behaved and was willing to obey him, he might
have allowed her to give birth to the baby for Grandma's sake.
What he did not expect was for her to get an abortion by herself while he, the father, was the last one to find out...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEdwin asked the nurse for the time when Joanne left the hospital and turned to leave the
hospital, determined to find her.
If the baby's gone, they could make more...
The more unwilling she was to bear his child, the more he wanted the child!
Edwin could feel how stuffy his chest was. It was the first time he felt like he had no control
over a situation.
He should have looked for her three days ago.
He might have overestimated Joanne. Maybe she never had the intention nor the
intelligence to come up with the plan of using the child against him...
It was either that, or that she was not ready to give up on her career as a celebrity.
Either way, Edwin was infuriated and was ready for murder.
Just as Edwin was approaching the exit, he passed by a garden, and his eyes landed on a
stone stool by the corner.
The slender figure sitting by the stool was none other than Joanne Winters.
