After twenty years of a child-free marriage, my husband suddenly changes his mind and wants a child.
A year later, at forty-two, I successfully give birth but end up fighting for my life due to massive blood loss of 1500 milliliters.
My husband, a doctor himself, not only abandons attempts to save me but tries to leave with our newborn baby.
In my hazy state, I overhear his conversation with a colleague.
"Doctor Huntington, you can't take the baby away now! The mother is hemorrhaging badly. Having the baby here might boost her will to live. Right now, the priority is to find someone to give her a blood transfusion..."
"Lavender's uterus was damaged because of me in the first place. This is our first child together, and the baby's first sight has to be his own birth mother! How could I let her take such an important moment away?"
"Say no more. Handle the rest as you see fit!"
In a forgotten corner, tears fall uncontrollably.
So, the ovulation shots I painfully endured each month were for his and his first love's embryo.
The child I risked my life to bring into this world was actually for someone else's happiness!

Twenty Years Of Child-free Marriage, Husband Suddenly Wants a Baby

In truth, his feelings for Lavender were mostly just regret and guilt from his youth.


Back then, he and his childhood sweetheart Lavender had their first taste of forbidden fruit, but accidentally got pregnant.


Afraid of school punishment and parental scolding, the young couple could only go to a back-alley clinic for the procedure.


They never expected that a simple surgery would later lead to complications.


It resulted in damage to Lavender's uterus, leaving her unable to conceive again.


The incident eventually came to light at school. Lavender's reputation was ruined, and she had no choice but to follow her parents' wishes to study abroad.


I've actually always had you in my heart!


But sadly, it wasn't until I lost you that I woke up to this.


You always used to say that nobody's perfect.


So... would you be willing to give me another chance?


Faye, hurry up! More wounded are being brought in!]
