My Perfect Marriage Was His Perfect Crime novel Chapter 83

Seeing the situation, Emily quickly stepped aside, letting us pass.

“Then hurry up and go upstairs. You can’t delay things like this, the child is the priority.”

In an instant, all hope was shattered, and I felt like I was falling into an abyss.

The elevator doors closed, and Mike kicked my leg with force.

“Bitch, were you trying to report us? You can’t stand to see Barbara doing well, can you?”

Mike’s strength was immense, and my calf hurt so much that I collapsed onto the ground with a loud thud. My stomach tightened, and the pain was excruciating.

“Be careful, she’s still pregnant. If the baby dies in her womb, the cord blood will be useless.”

Thomas shot Mike a displeased look.

Mike glanced down at me, grabbed my arm, and pinched it hard. The pain made tears stream down my face immediately.

“Can’t hit her? Pinching is fine, right?”

At that moment, Thomas’s phone rang.

“Director Bailey, your friend Miss Harris has developed a high fever. You should come over quickly.”

After hanging up, Thomas’s expression darkened.

“Barbara can’t wait any longer. We need to perform a cesarean immediately.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator doors slowly opened, and Thomas eagerly dragged me out.

“Stop.”

Suddenly, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed, and when I turned around, I saw Emily standing behind us, looking urgent.

The hope that had been extinguished reignited.

“Susan, you left your prenatal checkup book with me last time.”

Emily smiled and handed the checkup book to Thomas.

“Good luck to you both.”

“Thank you.”

Thomas thanked her repeatedly.

As Emily was about to leave, I hurriedly opened my mouth.

“Emily...”

Before I could say anything, Mike immediately covered my mouth.

Thomas also reacted quickly, pressing my hand down tightly.

“Wife, are you really uncomfortable? We’re almost at the office, don’t worry.”

After Emily entered the elevator, Thomas released me, and Mike immediately pinched my arm again with force.

“Bitch, you almost ruined everything for us.”

Pain spread through my body, and I had no strength to fight back.

The two of them dragged me directly into the operating room.

“Thomas, do you know this is illegal?”

I screamed in desperation.

While changing into surgical scrubs, Thomas glanced at me coldly.

“You’re my wife, and I’m the director of obstetrics. Who dares say a word if I perform the surgery?”

Thomas nodded and then took a consent form, signing it without hesitation.

“I married you for this moment. Once you sign the consent form, you won’t be able to hold Barbara responsible.”

Although I already knew the truth, hearing Thomas say it out loud still caused me unbearable pain.

Then, Thomas picked up the scalpel and made an incision on my belly.

Because there was no anesthesia, I could clearly feel my stomach being cut open, layer by layer. The pain felt like a wild beast was tearing me apart.

The entire operating room echoed with my heart-wrenching screams.

“You will all get your comeuppance.”

I almost gritted my teeth, using my last bit of strength to shout.

The next moment, I heard Thomas’s voice, filled with joy.

“It’s out, the baby’s out.”

Just as joy was about to reach his lips, I heard his trembling voice again.

“The baby... the baby... why isn’t there any breath?”

Thomas was holding a bloody mass, his face filled with panic.

“How could this happen? Did your operation cause the child’s death?”

Mike stormed forward and snatched the baby from Thomas’s hands, his face full of fury.

Thomas regained his composure, reached out to check the baby’s pulse again, and then grabbed Mike by the collar.

“It’s definitely because you were too forceful earlier, causing the baby to die in the womb.”

Mike swung his fist and hit Thomas in the face.
