Chapter 56 The Truth

  Freya's POV

  I woke up to the sound of cardiac instruments beeping in my ears and the sharp scent of hospital disinfectant filling my nostrils. I struggled to look around and saw Novia, her expression filled with concern.

  Novia walked over to me and gently took my hand. "Freya, are you okay?"

  I slowly turned my head to look at Novia and weakly asked, "Novia, how's my baby?"

  Novia flinched for a moment, her eyes quickly welling up with tears, and she looked at me without saying a word.

  "How is my baby?" I inquired, tears unconsciously welling up in my eyes.

  Novia lowered her head and let out a small sniffle before looking up at me, trying to muster a smile as she spoke soothingly, "Freya..."

  "He's gone, isn't he? I lost him," I whispered softly, unable to hold back the tears that blurred my vision.
