Chapter 32 Mental Disorder

"Don't think about it anymore. Please don't punish yourself."

With a syringe in her hand, Ashley bit her bloodless lips and patted his back. She was crying bitterly.

"Tell me! Tell me!"

She had always been a strong woman. Even if she couldn't help crying because of pressure, she would shed a few tears. When the sun rose, it was a new day. But today, she really couldn't help but cry.

They hugged together. Lucas would rather be the one who was hurt. He patted her on the back to comfort her.

"Ashley, go to sleep. You will be fine after a sleep."

"No, Lucas... I closed my eyes and saw the baby's face. How could it be? He had stayed in my belly for more than nine months. How could it be gone?"

She was almost talking to herself. Noticing that she was in a bad condition, Lucas grabbed her shoulder and stared into her eyes. He wanted to tell her the truth to awake her. Short pain was better than long pain.

"Ashley, look at me. The baby died. It had become the past. We will have our children in the future. Can you calm down?"

Ashley finally heard the truth from his mouth. She burst into laughter and dropped her hand from his arm.

"You can leave now..."

She lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Tears streamed down her cheeks. Lucas reached out his hand to wipe her tears, but he couldn't. Her tears seemed to have opened the gate and could only be closed by herself.

"You should go. I don't want to see you. Don't talk to me..."

She closed her eyes and pulled the quilt to cover her head. She didn't see anyone and didn't talk to anyone. So he had no choice but to walk out.

He called the doctor over to ask what was going on, but the doctor's answer made him even more at a loss.

"Mrs. Lucas must have been stimulated by the miscarriage of her child and suffered mental disorder. This is a knot in her heart, and she needs to solve it by herself. This is not within our ability. Please understand, Mr. Lucas."

Hearing this, Lucas clenched his fists tightly. Martin was worried that he would hit the doctor, so he stood aside.

At this time, Jake came from the other side of the corridor with a low expression.

When he was with Ashley in the past, he threw the blame of infertility on Ashley, which made the Jake family feel ashamed of her.

Now that he had married Kate, using the same excuse for two times would easily expose his lie. He had no choice but to come to the hospital and ask the doctor if there was any way to solve his problem.

Before he could lift his head, he was knocked to the ground by Lucas. He touched the corner of his mouth, and blood oozed out.

He stuck out her tongue and licked it. It hurt so much that he stood up with his hands on the floor. Seeing the angry Lucas, he didn't know why.

"Mr. Lucas? Why did you..."

With another hit, the second punch hit Jake. Martin hurried up to pull him away, but he couldn't block it with his strength. It was better to use Ashley to persuade him as soon as possible.

"Mr. Lucas, don't do that. Mrs. Lucas is still in the room. If she hears the noise, it will do harm to her recovery."

Sure enough, only Ashley was his weakness. He rested his chin on his hand and let go of Jake.

"Well, if I don't kill you today, I will make you beg for death!"

After saying that, he kicked Jake away again.

"Ahem..."

He was hit by Lucas in the hospital for no reason. He didn't know what he had done to piss him off. When he came back to his senses, he heard the words "Mrs. Lucas" from Martin.

That was Ashley. She was in the hospital?

With knitted brows, Jake stood up and limped. He looked at the ward behind Lucas but didn't dare to walk over.

He came from another department. It was an obstetrics and gynecology department. Why was Ashley here?

Or did she get his baby so soon?

But something was wrong. The time and the expression on his face didn't match. He was confused and followed the doctor when he saw the doctor leave Ashley's ward.

"Wait!" He stopped the doctor in front of him and asked, "Is the patient in that ward Ashley?"

The doctor nodded and said, "Yes, it's Mrs. Lucas. Who are you?"

"I am her..."

The two words "ex-husband" stuck in his throat. Jake licked his lips and did not say anything.

"I'm her friend, an ordinary friend. What's wrong with her?"

His eyes flashed, and he had been praying in his heart, "Please don't be like what I am worried about."

The doctor looked at him up and down and suddenly thought of something. He pressed the head of the ball pen down with a click.

"Here is the thing. Mrs. Lucas was in labor yesterday, but she lost her baby because of dystocia."

"Labor, dystocia?"

These two words exploded in Jake's mind. Even it's Lucas and Ashley's baby, it shouldn't have been born at this time.

"Is it premature birth?"

The doctor shook his head and said, "No, full moon."

Boom! A muffled thunder blew up Jake. He shook his body. How could it be? A full moon?

"Where is the baby?" Jake couldn't wait to ask.

"I've already handled it. Do you have anything else to do?"

His mind was in a mess. Thinking of the anger and fury on Lucas's face just now, he already knew that he was the baby's father. Why didn't Ashley tell him that she was pregnant? It was his baby. How could this bitch give it to the Lucas family!

His eyes reddened. He didn't know who he was looking for. The two punches and the kick from Lucas were still hurting. He didn't want to get into trouble again.

With this kind of mood, Jake weakly walked out of the hospital and returned to his house. Kate was dressed in beautiful clothes and coming downstairs.

"Jake, you're back. What did the hospital say?"

Kate had been with him for a long time and hadn't had a baby yet. She was fine, so she knew that the problem was caused by Jake.

And she would not be as stupid as Ashley to take the blame for him.

Jake didn't want to answer her, so he went upstairs in low spirits.

She felt strange. Why did he come back like this? Was it not good? Can't be cured?

Kate grabbed his arm and said, "Jake, don't ignore me. What's wrong?"

Thinking of the anger he had suffered in the hospital, Jake waved his hand fiercely and threw Kate down.

"Fuck off!"

"Ah!"

Kate screamed and rolled down the stairs. Fortunately, there were only a few steps left, but she sprained her ankle in her high heels.

She looked at Jake with resentment.

"Are you out of your mind? You are infertile. Why did you fall on me? Treat your disease as soon as possible!"

She roared madly.
