âWhat do you mean, ârestâ?â Katie exploded in anger.
âIâve lost my child.
Iâm devastated! You owe me an explanation!â
Mitchel gave a faint, dismissive smile.
âDevastated? If youâre truly devastated, why donât you see your child?â
Katie was stunned by the mention of seeing her child.
She thought her child was gone.
Before Katie could make sense of what was happening, Mitchel clapped his hands, signaling Matteoâs entrance.
Matteo carried a small, black-dr@ped box, stirring panic within Katie as she nervously awaited the reveal of the mysterious contents.
Katieâs hands trembled with fear as she yelled at Matteo to stay away.
However, only taking orders from Mitchel, Matteo ignored her pleas and continued forward.
He placed the box in front of Katie, lifted the cloth, and revealed its contents despite Katieâs fear.
âs BunnyBookery The room fell silent for a moment, after which Katie let out a loud scream.
She was frightened by the sight of the content of the box.
It was more than horrifying.
Instead of a normal baby, it looked like a creature from a nightmare.
It had four legs, eight fingers, no nose or mouth, and could never breathe on its own.
It was obvious that Katie had known about the childâs deformity from the start.
Her initial fear turned to disgust as she remembered the detailed scans that had shown the babyâs horrific form.
Katie had been aware all along that her child was not human.
The doctors believed Katieâs use of hormonal medications to maintain her beauty during pregnancy was likely the cause of the childâs deformity.
Despite the doctorâs words, Katie continued to take hormonal medications, even in a larger dosage, all for the futile attempt to look good.
She never gave a damn to the child in her belly since she knew the father was Abel.
Her vanity outweighed her concern for the childâs well-being, and the child suffered genetic mutation due to exposure to mercury from the medications.
This not only deformed the fetus but also affected Katieâs appearance to some degree.
To avoid embarrassment, Katie had decided to end the pregnancy, never intending to bring it to the world.
By scheming against Raegan, she didnât hesitate to bump her belly into the sharp corner of the table, making it seem like a miscarriage after a fall.
Doctors at the hospital were paid off by Katie to make sure no one saw the childâs deformities.
However, Mitchel managed to secure the child, rendering all Katieâs efforts futile.
Katie was repulsed by the sight of the box and commanded, âTake it away! Get rid of it!â
Katie felt sick at the sight of the childâs deformity, result of her lack of concern of its well-being and her overdosage of the hormonal medications.
It was heartbreaking that Abel had lost his life defending this child, only for it to end up with such deformities.
Nonetheless, Katie was unaffected.
In her eyes, such a grotesque creature did not deserve to exist in this world.
Katieâs cries fell on deaf ears as Mitchel placed the box next to Katie.
He said in a cold, matter-of-fact tone, âSince you miss your child so much, why donât you enjoy its company?â
Katieâs eyes opened wide in shock and horror.
âNo! I donât want that!â she screamed.
The thought of sharing her room with such a monster terrified Katie, even though she had a heart as cold as stone.
Mitchel looked down at Katie with a cold smile on his face.
âWhy are you so scared? Isnât this your beloved child, the one you created with your own hands? You poisoned it day by day, so why should you be afraid?â His words dripped with malice.
Katie was left speechless, staring at Mitchel with shock and disbelief.
He knew everything, even her secret about using hormones during pregnancy.
