At the hospital.

The doctor had just finished doing tests on Corinne and was walking out to report her condition to Lucas and Sunny.

“Miss Corinne passed out because of the shock she received. It’s good you brought her in just in time. Both she and

the baby are okay.”

Lucas and Sunny visibly relaxed and heaved a sigh of relief when they heard that.

“But, there’s still a risk of her going into premature labor since she’s so close to the due date. It’s best to keep her

in the hospital until the baby is born,” added the doctor.

Lucas agreed with the doctor. He was worried Corinne would get into another shock if he took her home. Thus, he

gestured with his chin to Edmund and said, “Fill in the forms for Corinne’s hospital stay.”

“Yes, Mister Lucas.”

Sunny frowned as he watched Edmund leave. He then turned to Lucas, “Lucas, how did Jeremy…”

Lucas’ face darkened. “Why are you still bringing that up? Hasn’t Corinne had enough shock for one day?”

Realizing his mistake, Sunny hung his head low in shame and said nothing else.

“Remember to not bring up Jeremy’s death in front of Corinne later when we go in to see her,” warned Lucas again.

“Yes, Lucas,” said Sunny with a nod.

…

Corinne was already awake when they entered her hospital room. She was staring blankly at the ceiling as though

her soul had left her body.

Lucas’ heart ached when he saw her in such a state. He walked over to her bed, and asked softly, “Corinne, how

are you feeling now? Do you feel pain anywhere?”

Corinne shook her head without looking at him. “I’m fine. Perfectly fine,” she said hollowly.

The more she tried to seem like she was fine, the more Lucas worried about her. He reached out to stroke her

head. “Corinne, I’ve asked Edmund to arrange for you to stay in the hospital. You can stay here until the baby is

born. I’ll stay with you too, so don’t worry, okay?”

Corinne snapped out of her trance a little. She looked at Lucas. “You don’t have to do this. I’m sure you have plenty

of work to do, so I’ll be fine staying here alone. Don’t worry. I’ve calmed down and won’t do anything that’ll put the

baby’s life at risk.”

Lucas was relieved to hear her say that. “I’m glad you can think that way. Some things can never be salvaged no

matter what. The most important thing is to continue living and keep those you love safe—for example, your soon-

to-be-born baby.”

Corinne smiled. “Of course I’ll keep my baby safe! As for that man… Well, he has nothing to do with us anymore,

right? So what if he’s dead? It’s better that way since that means he won’t be able to harass me or the baby

anymore. Plus, I don’t ever have to worry about him stealing the baby away from me now.”

Lucas frowned. “That’s one way of thinking about it. But I hope you won’t spend too much time thinking about him,

Corinne. You need all the rest you can get.”

Sunny wiped away his tears with his arm. “Hmph! I know you guys broke up, but how can you say something so evil

like that, Corinne? How can you think Jeremy’s death is a good thing when he used to be so good to you?” he asked

angrily.

Hearing this, Lucas glared coldly at him and shouted, “You, get lost!”

Sunny was so mad and sad that he did not care about what Lucas thought at that moment. He harrumphed again

and left the hospital room without turning back.

“Ignore him, Corinne. He doesn’t know any better,” Lucas comforted Corinne gently after Sunny had left the room.

Corinne nodded. “Lucas, can you please get me those cream puffs from Eighth Street? I have a sudden craving for

them.”

“Sure, I’ll get someone to buy them for you later,” said Lucas.

A second later, he looked at Corinne in disbelief. “What did you call me just now?”
