Chapter 80
Love Addiction: Doting On My Love
âIâll inform Grandma of all this,â she threatened. âTil see if she allows such a heinous act.â
Luciusâs expression contorted slightlyâa mix of anger and challenge. âYou wouldnât dare.
âWhy not?â she retorted, beyond the point of fear.
He grabbed her throat, his fingers constricting.
âWhat? Are you so eager to tell Grandma because youâre hoping for her preferred method of childbirth?â
âWhat method?â she gasped, struggling to breathe.
âDo you think you deserve that privilege?â he questioned coldly.
Fighting for breath, she defiantly locked eyes with him.
He abruptly let go, glaring down at the hand he had used to strangle her, his demeanor exuding arrogance.
âReflect on how we lost our first child, and then obediently bore my child!â
In Luciusâs world, what he willed, he achieved.
The following day. Violet was forcefully administered an ovulation induction injection.
As someone more receptive to subtle forms of persuasion than force, especially in such personal matters. Violet rushed to the kitchen and desperately gobbled ice cream, devouring all the frozen food she could find in a desperate attempt to resist.
This bingeâeating quickly led to severe stomach pain, diarrhea, and fever, leaving her bedridden and too weak to move within just a few hours.
The doctor attending to her shook his head worriedly.
âWhatâs going on?â Lucius barged in, likely aware of her deteriorating health.
âShe overindulged in frozen foods, causing fever and diarrhea,â the doctor nervously explained. âThe eggs we harvested might be compromised.â
Luciusâ expression darkened instantly, and he glared at her with venom.
Violet, pale and in pain, was lying in bed, pressing her hand against her stomach to alleviate the discomfort.
She attempted a grin as she met Luciusâs gaze.
âI told you⦠Iâm not having a child! If you dare use my eggs for embryos again, Iâll eat even more bizarre things to give you a monstrous baby!â
Luciusâs fingers clenched tightly, emitting a frightening cracking sound, almost as if he were ready to break something.
George, witnessing the scene, was visibly sweating.
Violet averted her gaze, refusing to look at Lucius.
+15 BONOS Despite his anger, Lucius didnât harm her. Violet was perhaps the only person in the Davis family who could dely him and still live to tell the tale.
He ordered. âWatch her. Itâs on you if she eats anything strange again. Iâll send everyone involved to the swamp outside!â
His order instilled tear in the medical team. From then on, Violet was constantly monitored.
Everything she ate was scrutinized, and she was no longer permitted to handle any food.
A nutritionist prepared all her meals, which were personally served to her.
Under such constraints, healthy eggs were eventually extracted from her body.
Violet could only clench her fists in rage as she watched the medical professionals walk away gleefully.
She had never despised Lucius more than at that moment!
Half a month has passedâ¦
âCongratulations, Master Lucius! The embryo cultivation was a success,â the medical staff announced.
Lucius responded with a nonchalant nod, âProceed with the implantation immediately.â
âUnderstood, Master Lucius.â
Violet was again dragged into the surgery room without her knowledge.
After a brief procedure, she awoke to find that a viable embryo had been implanted in her.
Violet awoke, staring blankly at the ceiling, feeling an unusual sensation in her body, unable to pinpoint what it was. She attempted to shift her body a little.
âStay still!â the nurse instructed urgently. âThe embryo has just been placed; you need to remain in bed for observation.â
This revelation left Violet ashenâfaced, her hand instinctively touching her stomach. Was she pregnant now?
Violetâs body shook with rage as the nurse placed a thermometer under her arm.
Lucius had actually gone through with it and transplanted the embryo into her!
She snatched out the thermometer and hurled it across the room without thinking.
The thermometer shattered, spreading fragments across the floor, and the mercury condensed into a little bead, mocking her plight.
Violet leaped out of bed with an unknown determination to grasp the mercury, but the nurse anticipated this and pushed her away.
She fell to the ground but spotted a table.
With all reasoning gone, she leaped up again, her abdomen slamming hard against the table!
+15 BONOS âUrghh!â
Violet felt a tremendous blow to her stomach, as if all her organs were being wrenched out, while the nurseâs piercing cry reverberated.
The rebound sent her crashing to the ground, leaving her immobile for a long time, unable to get up.
âWhat happened?!â
Alarmed voices filled the hallway outside.
Ten minutes later, Lucius entered the room. His dark, sinister stare landed on the bed.
Violet, clutching her painful abdomen, looked up at him. She gasped for air, and managed to show him a weak smile.
âThe embryo has been knocked out.â
âThe embryo can be dislodged if it hasnât been firmly attached in the early stage, especially when subjected to a severe impact,â the doctor explained with caution.
There was no change in Luciusâs demeanor, yet the room grew noticeably colder.
