Catherine replaced Ryan by sitting in his seat. She learned to blow on the soup as he did. However,
when the food entered Freya’s mouth, Freya grumbled softly, “Cathy, it’s hot. Are you trying to burn my
tongue?”
Catherine was speechless. “But it wasn’t hot when Ryan fed you just now, huh?”
“He cooled it down first.”
Fine. Did that mean Catherine was not attentive as a man?
Outside the emergency room.
Rodney wrapped his hands around his head and waited outside for two hours before the doctor finally
came out.
He promptly dashed toward the doctor. “Doctor, how’s the patient?”
“She’s in a bad condition. Her face… is disfigured.
Her muscles and tendons are broken due to excessive blood loss, the delay in sending her here, and
her infected wounds. Although we’ve fixed her tendons through the surgery, her nerves have certainly
been injured. It’s uncertain whether she can walk in the future. As for her hands… After a few months
of treatment, it’ll be good enough if she can eat with her hands.”
As soon as the doctor finished speaking, Rodney tottered and struggled to keep his footing. By the time
he came to his senses, he grabbed the doctor’s collar and roared, “What do you mean? Are you saying
that she’ll be paralyzed even up to her arms? In that case, won’t she be a disabled person?”
“Mr. Snow, we’ve really tried our best. It’s good enough that we managed to save her life.” Rodney’s
roar made the doctor’s heart palpitate. Even so, the doctor continued reluctantly, “Also…”
Rodney widened his eyes and looked at the doctor anxiously.
“The patient… had a miscarriage, ” the doctor stammered.
“Miscarriage?” Rodney froze. “What nonsense are you talking about? How could she have gotten
pregnant?”
“It’s true. She got pregnant about half a month ago. However, her miscarriage was probably caused by
being in the dirty water for too long. On top of excessive blood loss, getting traumatized, and not
sending her to the hospital in time, it has taken a huge toll on her body. I’m afraid she might have
trouble getting pregnant in the future.”
“Half… Half a month?” Rodney was in a daze.
Sarah had been in the apartment the entire time. With his men keeping an eye on her, she had not
gone anywhere. How could she have been pregnant?
Could one of the Snowden bodyguards have gotten her pregnant?
No. Half a month ago, there was one night when Rodney got drunk and stayed in the apartment
overnight.
Could it have been that night… That was impossible.
Rodney’s head almost exploded.
He had never thought of cheating. Moreover, why did Sarah not tell him?
Did she hide it from him because she did not want to spoil his marriage?
At that instant, Rodney felt extremely guilty toward Sarah.
If this was the reason, he would have to bear a huge responsibility to her if she got pregnant in the
future. What was more, she would most probably be paralyzed from now on. With the condition of her
hands, she might be able to eat, but it would be impossible for her to go to work.
