Chapter 186: Chapter 186

In the ward, Anastasia was still unconscious. Anastasia struggled and cried in her dreams.

“My child…”

In reality, Anastasia had always wanted a child of her own.

She believed that having a child would make her and Alastor’s family complete.

However, Alastor didn’t like children, and he didn’t want the child to be born.

“Mom…”

She saw a blurry child tearfully saying goodbye to his mother in her dream.

He was leaving because he could not stay with his mother any longer.

“Mom, you must live well. Don’t give up treatment for my sake. Take care of yourself. I will come back again.” The child urged Anastasia to live well and seek proper treatment in her dream.

Anastasia desperately tried to keep the child.

In the end, it was all in vain. The child had already left and disappeared into the mist.

No matter how much Anastasia cried and screamed, it was of no use.

Her child was no longer alive.

“There is no fetal heartbeat, and there is insufficient oxygen. It is not possible to save the child.”

“Let’s try induced labor.”

“The victim’s condition is bad.”

“Her condition is critical.”

Alastor was slumped against the wall outside the operating room, waiting for Anastasia to be pushed out.

It had been a long time, and she still hadn’t come out.

Meanwhile, Jason stood still and kept his hands clenched until his knuckles were pale.

It wasn’t until the doctor issued a critical condition notification letter that the two of them snapped back to reality.

“Be mentally prepared. The patient’s will to survive is weak.”

Jason stood trembling at the entrance, unable to say a word.

Alastor wasn’t any better. Alastor lowered his head, lost in thought.

“Will you be content if she dies?” Jason inquired, his voice hoarse “She won’t die.” Alastor was breathing heavily.

At that moment, he wasn’t entirely sure how he felt.

Throughout their four years of marriage, he had never fallen in love with Anastasia. Alastor was simply used to Anastasia being around the house. However, after deciding to get a divorce, he became so consumed by jealousy and madness that he- refused to get a divorce.

Alastor felt contradictory.

Nevertheless, it was too late for him to figure it out.

“Jace! The police caught that jerk!” Jayden rushed in, excited. “It’s Harold, Sienna’s uncle. Harold’s the man who hurt Anastasia. Harold’s the same jerk I was investigating at your request!”

Harold had gone into hiding following the incident. No matter how hard they looked, they could not find him.

“Why did Harold appear so suddenly? Is it for Sienna’s and his sister’s sake? That’s impossible. This man has no humanity. He, like Zeke, is addicted to gambling. He only cares about himself. Someone must have secretly protected him, allowing him to remain hidden for so long. There must be some sinister plan behind his reappearance and attack on Anastasia,” Jason pondered.

“Who?” Alastor’s voice was low as he grabbed Jayden.

“The culprit is Sienna’s uncle, Harold Carter,” Jayden said, shaking off Alastor’s hand. “Have you ever genuinely cared about Anastasia in your four years of marriage? You are worse than a private investigator like me when it comes to understanding her situation.”

Alastor’s fingers trembled.

Harold Carter.

It was the name of the man Sienna claimed Anastasia had slept with in order to protect the family’s interests.

Jason pushed Jayden aside and questioned Alastor in a low voice, “Alastor, have you ever thought about trusting Anastasia? Thanks to Harold, I ended up in a juvenile detention center. Anastasia had evidence that Harold had harmed her. It was the full version of the edited video that Sienna had released.”

Alastor’s breath quivered, and he averted his He was beginning to panic.

gaze.

“Do you know why Anastasia never explained it to you, even though she had evidence? It was because she had given up on you. Anastasia does not love you anymore, and it is all your fault.” Jason’s words pierced Alastor’s heart.

From Alastor’s standpoint, Anastasia had been plotting against him all the time and had never loved him.

“Snowball is dead, and the baby is gone. There’s nothing left connecting you and her together.”

“This time, Anastasia can finally leave Alastor without any constraints, right?” Jason wondered.
