Chapter 1044 by Marina Vittori
An Understated Dominance
Dustin and the others rushed to the operating room after receiving the news. Still unconscious, Cecilia was being wheeled out. Beside her was something covered with a white sheet.
Dustinâs hands trembled as he lifted the white sheet. It was the babyâs lifeless body. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth. A wave of anger surged within him.
He had promised Nelson that he would protect Cecilia and their baby.Now, not only were the mother and daughter severely injured and hospitalized, but Cecilia had also tragically lost her child.
It was an earthâshattering tragedy for him. Amidst the guilt and selfâblame, he was overwhelmed with anger.
He was livid!
âHow did this happen? We were fine when we left. How did â¦â Natashaâs face turned pale as she
struggled to comprehend the situation.
Cecilia was nine months pregnant and about to give birth.
They couldnât imagine the pain of losing a life that was growing in her.
âIâm sorry, we did our best.â
A doctor explained, âThe fetus had already lost its life during the car accident. Saving the adult is
the best we could have hoped for in this unfortunate situation.â
âBaby⦠My babyâ¦â
At some point, Cecilia had already opened her eyes. Tears streamed down her face when she
heard the doctorâs words.
But she didnât even have the strength to cry as she was too weak.
âCecilia, Iâm sorry. Itâs my fault that you all got involved in this.â
â
Natasha grabbed Ceciliaâs hand. Her eyes were brimming with tears.
The accident was directed at her, yet Cecilia and her baby had been dragged in for no reason.
She felt responsible for the childâs death.
âHaley⦠How is Haley?â Cecilia snapped to her senses. Her grip on Natashaâs hand tightened.
âHaley is fine. Sheâs safe. Sheâll be discharged in a few days,â Natasha reassured her.
Upon hearing that, Cecilia finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But when she thought of her baby, grief overwhelmed her.
As she cried and cried, exhaustion overcame her. She fell into a deep sleep again.
âDylan!â Dustin clenched his fists tightly, his hatred burning intensely.
That bastard had crossed the line!
âDad, I will never let him off the hook.â Natashaâs usually lively face darkened in anger.
Her eyes were cold. âThe Harmons are viel demons! They need to learn their lesson!â
She didnât want to fight each other for the sake of their past relationship. But the current situation made her realize that Dylan had lost all humanity.
He even planned the car accident to take her life. Facing such a beast, Natasha wouldnât show any mercy!
Hector sighed but remained silent.
He knew there was no turning back after this incident. They were formally enemies now.
There would be major changes in the Harmon family.
The following morning, the Harmon family residence was filled with festive air.
