FreeNovelAfter hanging up the phone, Everett had already hailed a cab. He was a sharp one, and from Dorothy's few frantic words, he grasped the gravity of the situation.
Once in the car, Dorothy's hands were trembling uncontrollably.
Everett gently rubbed her back. "Don't worry, it's going to be okay. The resort has a doctor on call, and Jeffrey had made arrangements just in case something happened to Karen." Dorothy looked up at him with concern in her eyes. "Will Karen's baby be okay?" "Let's see what the doctor says," he replied cautiously, not wanting to jump to conclusions.

Everett dialed Jeffrey's number several times to no avail — either he didn't have his phone on him, or it was on silent.
Luckily, the cab got them to the resort quickly, and the ambulance was right on their heels.
Dorothy rushed into the room to find Karen in shock, collapsed on the carpet with blood all around her. "Dorothy... am I having a miscarriage?" Karen's voice broke through the chaos.
"Stop, don't say that! The doctor's here, we're going to the hospital," Dorothy said, knowing she had to hold it together and keep Karen calm.
"It's going to be fine, remember what you said? Any kid lucky enough to be born to you won't be sdelicate flower." Karen nodded vigorously, her eyes red. "Okay." The emergency room doors at Everglow City Hospital were closed, leaving everyone in the dark about Karen's condition.
Dorothy paced back and forth, unable to sit still. "Still no word from Jeffrey?" "He turned his phone off," Everett said, scowling as he got up to join her. "Don't panic. I've got someone checking the security footage to see where he might have gone." How could Dorothy not worry? Karen was still inside, and the fate of the baby was uncertain.
"Jeffrey can be such a child when he's upset! How could he not think about Karen being pregnant?" Dorothy was fuming at Jeffrey! The whole thing with Tristan was an accident, not something Karen sought out. And whatever Tristan said or did was beyond her control! Even if you backtrack a mile, Jeffrey and Karen both had their pasts. Why couldn't he just accept that? "Could it be... did Jeffrey lay his hands on her?" Dorothy's mind raced back to Karen's words.
She said they had a row! "That, he would never. Jeffrey wouldn't go that far. He's just jealous." Visit englishto read full content.
