"We only intend to save you and your child." he assured again when Eve looked at him with suspicion. She could not trust them. But she still nodded after a long pause.
"Fine! If that is the case, escort me with your men. I want to go to the royal palace and ask for my husband. They could not hurt him without proof." she looked at Abraham with sharp eyes as if telling him that it was a test. The man sighed.
"Lady Evangeline. We can do so anytime you want. But the physician had only tested you and confirmed that your labor pain could start any moment. We have already called for a midwife too. Do you want to take the risk to deliver the child in the carriage or worse in the royal palace?" His voice did not hold any pressure but helplessness. As if he was dealing with a stubborn child he could not handle. Eve bit her lips and touched her belly. She could feel the moment getting stronger too as if the child was telling her he was about to come.
