"Mr. Kevin, are you sure you can leave Anne to me after she gives birth safely?"
Alan looked over at Kevin suspiciously. If he continued to protect Anne, then his sister's revenge would
be impossible!
"You are eager to get even. I can understand. As soon as this baby is born, I will have nothing to do
with this woman." Kevin gritted his teeth. How could she have been so merciless?
"Okay! I'll wait until she gives birth, just for your sake." Casting a pointed stare towards Anne, Alan
turned around and left.
A deafening silence settled in the room. Anne had a sullen look on her face, as she gazed towards
Kevin. She wondered if she should thank him.
"Kevin, don't you trust me? Do you really believe I killed Ruth?" with hopeful eyes, Anne questioned
Kevin as she looked at his expressionless face.
"The evidence is irrefutable. Do you still want to deny it? How could you be so heartless?" He looked at
her with a cold expression.
A sharp pain cut through her abdomen and her face scrunched up in an instant. She let out a painful
moan, her forehead breaking into a sweat.
"What? You feel guilty now?"
Unaware of the pain she was in, Kevin droned on. He was growing angrier, now that she no longer
defended herself.
"It hurts..." Her breathing grew heavier, as the pain shot up her belly like fire. She stumbled as she sat
down on the bed, the intense aching making her dizzy.
As soon as he saw her tormented expression, Kevin's anger dissipated. He was quick to rush to her
side, as he asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"
"I think I’m going to have a baby..."
Anne could feel the baby moving in her belly, impatient to come out. Maybe she was also sad seeing
her mother being wronged.
"What are you waiting for? Find the doctor!"
Turning back towards Cherry, Kevin roared in her face. His emotions were getting out of his control.
"Okay, I'll go!" Cherry was startled by his outburst. She quickly turned around and ran out to look for a
doctor.
"Anne, how do you feel? Is it painful?" Kevin moved closer to Anne, rubbing her back.
Although he was still angry that she had killed Ruth, his heart crumpled at the sight of her suffering.
"You don't have to pretend to care about me. I'll give birth to the baby. Don't worry." As far as Anne
knew, all Kevin cared about was the baby in her belly.
"Are you mad at me? Don’t speak like that."
He was aware that Anne was hurt by his words, but he only said them to ensure her safety. Even if the
birth safely happened, he would still try to protect her. He would never let Alan hurt her even in the
slightest.
"It hurts..."
The stabbing pain in her belly was growing worse. She couldn't help but cry out softly, her face twisting
in torment.
Kevin's heart clenched. Looking at her suffer, he wished he could share her pain.
About half an hour later, a scream tore through the delivery room.
Kevin paced outside, his forehead creased in worry.
The delivery was taking so long, but the baby still hadn't been born. How much pain did that little
woman have to suffer?
Cherry, on the other hand, was seated calmly. There was a malicious smile playing on her lips, every
time she heard Anne’s painful cry.
However, when her eyes fell upon Kevin’s worried face, her dissatisfaction grew. He was still
concerned about Anne in his heart.
"Have a rest. You have been standing there for a long time," Cherry slowly walked up to him and
whispered, not being able to watch him be anxious anymore.
"No! I’m fine!" he coldly replied, his eyes not leaving the entrance to the delivery room.
His heart was wrenching at Anne's painful cry. How could he rest?
After a long time, Anne’s screams gradually faded away, but there was still no cries of a baby heard.
Kevin was growing impatient, and he couldn't wait anymore. He pounded on the door so hard that his
knuckles turned red.
"Open the door. I want to go in!" It was torture for him waiting outside. He wanted to know how she was
doing.
"Kevin, what are you doing? This is the delivery room. You can't just go in."
Cherry hurried to stop him, seeing his absurd behavior. ‘Why is he so worried about Anne?’
"Get out of my way!"
Kevin’s face darkened as he pushed her hands off of him.
Startled by his coldness, Cherry panicked.
Just as she was thinking of how to stop him, the delivery room creaked open. A doctor emerged, his
medical gloves smeared with blood.
Kevin's eyes turned red before he burst out in anger.
"Where is she? Is she okay?" He roughly grabbed the doctor's collar, his heart rate increasing.
"Mr. Kevin, please calm down. Mrs. Anne is not in a good condition right now. She is likely to have
dystocia and a massive hemorrhage."
The doctor quickly spoke, panicking under Kevin’s glare.
"What do you mean by that?" Kevin's fists instinctively tightened, as he spoke in a hushed breath.
When Cherry heard the doctor, her eyebrows raised. She felt excited at the mere idea of Anne's grave
situation. 'Only God can help her now,' she mused.
"Mr. Kevin, in case she suffers from a hemorrhage, would you wish to save the mother or the child?"
the doctor asked Kevin seriously.
"Of course we want to keep the baby!" Cherry loudly stated, forgetting to wait for Kevin’s reply.
A cold gaze settled on her, as Kevin stared at her, deep in thought.
She realized that she said something wrong. He had always thought of her as the kindest person. The
fact that she was so quick to disregard Anne's life might have made him extremely disappointed.
"I want to save them both! I don’t care what you have to do. Save both of them!"
He could never give up on either of them. They belonged to him. He wouldn't allow any accident to
occur in his presence.
"Mr. Kevin, we will try our best." The doctor nodded gravely and headed back into the delivery room.
As the door was about to close, Kevin pushed it open and entered.
"Mr. Kevin, you can't come in here. You have to wait outside. We will inform you immediately if there is
any news," the doctor called out to him, persuading him to return. Kevin, however, strode onwards.
"My woman is inside!" He needed to make sure she was okay. He had to go in!
"Mr. Kevin! It's against the rules! No one is allowed to enter without permission!"
the doctor shouted. Aware of Kevin's power, he was very respectful.
"Those rules are not for me. Believe me when I say, I can make this hospital disappear with one
command!"
Without wasting any more time, Kevin pushed the doctor out his way and walked inside.
Anne could be seen lying on the bed, her face pale and her forehead shining with sweat.
She had been struggling for so long that she had no strength to cry out.
"Anne, you have to be strong!" Kevin’s heart ached at the sight, her weak state making him feel sad.
Despite his distress, he never showed any emotions on his face. His tone was still domineering and
indifferent as usual.
Anne weakly turned to look at Kevin, her bottom lip quivering at the sight.
"What are you doing here? I don't want to see you." As she thought back to his cruel and ruthless acts,
tears started streaming down her cheeks.
"Anne, the most important thing for you now is to give birth to the baby!"
'Damn it! Why is she still angry with me? Doesn't she know that her safety is the most important now?’
he thought.
"I know you only care about the baby. If it weren't for it, you would have let Alan kill me." She smiled
bitterly, her voice sounding hoarse from all the screaming.
‘The only reason this man has entered the room is that he is worried about my baby. I don’t mean
anything to him!’
Kevin swallowed heavily at her response. She really believed that he wanted nothing to do with her.
"You said you didn't kill Ruth. You have to survive if you want to find evidence and convince me of it.
You can’t die with this accusation on you!"
Kevin had never believed that Ruth’s death was caused by Anne, but he had also seen the irrefutable
evidence.
As she heard his words, her eyes flashed with a glimmer of hope.
He was right. She had to live to find evidence to prove her innocence.
She must prove that Cherry had framed her.
Staring at Kevin, Anne let her intense emotions fuel her strength, as she pushed with all her might.
A loud baby’s cry broke through the delivery room as the baby was finally born safely.
