I must have been unconscious for quite a while, my mouth felt dry.

However, knowing that the baby was still there, I breathed a sigh of relief and prepared to get up for some

water.

It was at that moment that Jane rushed back in and quickly took the cup from my hands.

"I'll get the water for you. Just lie down, wait for Dr. Travis to come and check on you before moving."

Seeing her so anxious, and fearing for the baby, I lay back down.

Jane poured a cup of warm water and handed it to me, then adjusted the pillow behind me so I could lean comfortably.

I sighed. "You don't have to be so meticulous, I'm not that bad off yet."

Jane's expression turned serious. "You don't need to pretend to be okay in front of me. We've been friends for so many years, and I know you."

I lowered my head to drink the water, hiding the pain in my eyes and not responding to her. "Where's Frank?"

Jane replied, "He has a high fever and is being treated next door."

She didn't give me a chance to speak and continued, "Charlotte, I didn't comfort you earlier because I know that no one can truly understand what you're going through. No matter what I say, it won't bring your grandma back. And losing a loved one is a lifelong sorrow, so I didn't tell you to look forward or not to be too sad. But now, I can't hold back any longer. You can't continue like this. I'm not trying to pressure you with the child, but you said you want to keep the baby, so you must take responsibility. Otherwise, you might as well end it now. Don't let the baby suffer with you, and you'll hurt yourself emotionally and physically. Also, don't bottle it all up. You don't have to cry, but you need to express your feelings honestly to me. If you keep everything inside, it will hurt not only you but also the child and Frank. And all of us who care about you."

Jane was so dry-mouthed that she drank a cup of water before preparing to continue.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

I raised my hand to stop her and asked, "Is my baby okay?"

Jane said, "If you can't come to terms with this, Dr. Travis said he's not a miracle worker and can't guarantee the safety of the baby."

"Frank has already said that if the child can't be saved, then don't force it. He can't bear to see you suffer.

I can't bear it either. If I can't convince you, then this child might just not be in our fate."

I fell silent for a moment, unsure of where to begin.

I never imagined my grandma would leave me so quickly.

I had been preparing to care for her and show her filial piety in the future.

Yet because of the baby in my womb, I didn't have time to process all this.

I had to get over the fact that Grandma had passed away.

But that wasn't an easy thing to do.

I pursed my lips. "I'll go check on Frank first."

Jane went to fetch a wheelchair.

Feeling weak, I sat in the wheelchair and let her push me over.

When Dr. Travis saw me, he first checked my pulse.

He said, "I don't recommend using too much medication. It's better if you can open up your feelings on your own. If you really can't, then you can take medication."

I thanked Dr. Travis and went to see Frank.

Dr. Travis continued, "His condition isn't great either. The only comforting thing is that his physical health is relatively good, but he can't handle sustained high fevers. If the fever doesn't go down tonight, we need to be prepared." I held Frank's hand, which was burning hot and made me tremble.

How could his fever be so serious?

Even people with the best health couldn't endure this, not to mention he was injured.
