Chapter 187
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Margaret came from a family that practiced medicine. She knew how to take care of pregnant women and also how to get rid of a pregnancy.
However, due to moral considerations, she had never done such a cruel thing.
But if it could help Renee and Stefan get back together, she would do it even if she would go to hell for it!
âMiss Desrosiers, are you sure? If you really donât want this baby, I can make a medicine for you to get rid of it without any pain. It wonât have any impact on your fertility either.â
Margaret confirmed with Briar again.
She would only do it if Briar truly wanted to abort the baby.
She would not force Briar. After all, only a mother could decide the life and death of a baby. Others could only contribute their opinion at most.
âIâm sure!â
Briar nodded earnestly and said. âI wish my child can be born into a loving family. I wish that his father not only loves him, but also loves his mother. Otherwise, thereâs no happiness to speak of. Obviously, this child came at a bad time. Itâs for the best!â
âMiss Desrosiers, youâre a very reasonable person. You have great wisdom.â
Briarâs answer eased any mental burden Margaret had.
She thought Briar was actually not as wicked as Renee said. Sheâs pretty reasonable.
As expected of a woman that Stefan chose. She could not be that bad.
âPlease wait for a moment, Miss Desrosiers. Iâll go make the medicine right now.â
After that, Margaret went to a nearby traditional medicine pharmacy to prepare the abortion medication for Briar.
Before long, Margaret was back in the ward. She had brought the medicine in a thermos. She handed it to Briar.
âMiss Desrosiers, hereâs the medicine. Donât worry, itâs safe to drink. Your stomach may hurt slightly, but it wonât be too bad. You only have to go to the bathroom once and problem solved.â
â
Margaret consoled Briar.
Her family had superb medical knowledge. She could guarantee the medicineâs safety with confidence.
Briar looked at the thermos but did not take it. Instead, she suddenly raised her voice and asked, âIf I drink it as you say, you promise Renee will drop the charges and let me go?â
Margaret was slightly taken aback. She could not understand why Briar was suddenly talking so loudly, but she patiently said.â Donât worry, Miss Desrosiers. I believe youâre not a bad person. You only became a homewrecker due to a moment of confusion. Jealousy made you do irrational things. Youâre not so bad that you deserve to go to jail. As long as Mr. Hunt and Miss Ren get back together, Iâm sure Miss Ren wonât pursue the matter.â
Briar nodded and gave the clock on the wall a casual glance. Seeing that the time was almost right, she said to Margaret, âIâm scared. Can you feed me?â
âOf course.â
Margaret understood Briarâs despair as a mother who was about to kill her own child.
She unscrewed the lid of the thermos and got a bit closer to Briar while telling her, âDonât be scared.
The medicineâs not bitter.
Drink it with your eyes closed. Youâll be free of your pain and dilemma.â
However, Briarâs expression suddenly did a 180. She looked frightened and shrunk back, screaming, âMargaret, stop! Donât hurt my baby!â
âTake the medicine away, I beg you! Iâll never drink itâ¦â
Margaret was confused. She walked forward and said. âWhat do you mean, Miss Desrosiers? Did your nerves get the better of you? I can feed you. Iâ¦â
âGo away! Help! Help! This woman is trying to kill my baby!â
After that, Briar sprinted past Margaret towards the tall figure standing outside the door.
âSave me, Stefan! Renee sent her! She wants to force the abortion medicine down my throat!â
