At eight months pregnant, my boyfriend and I, in our pure love, were involved in a car accident.
Caelan ignored the blood between my legs and rushed to the hospital carrying Faye in his arms.
When I opened my eyes again, I was tightly strapped to a blood donation table, my stomach in excruciating pain.
From outside the door, Caelan's conversation with the doctor came through clearly:
"Mr. Langdon, are you sure you want to do this? If we induce labor now, Miss Carlisle's baby could still be saved! But if we draw blood now, not only will the baby be lost, Miss Carlisle could also go into severe shock, endangering her life!"
After a moment of silence.
Caelan sighed, his voice hoarse as he said:
"Faye is critically injured and still in emergency care. The hospital blood bank is insufficient. Only Serenity's blood can save her. I can't stand by and do nothing."
"When Serenity wakes up, I'll do my best to make it up to her, marry her, and give her a proper status."
In just a few words, he casually decided the fate of me and our child.
I laughed bitterly to myself, closing my eyes in despair,
Allowing the sharp needle to pierce my arm.
It was too late.
Caelan still didn't know,
In just one more month, I was truly going to die.

Eight Months Pregnant, My Boyfriend Dragged Me to Donate Bone Marrow

"Your husband shouldn't have let you keep that baby six months ago. Now you've not only weakened your body from the miscarriage, but you've gone and donated blood too! I told you to take better care of yourself," he chided.


"I noticed you limping today. It's probably the psychological stress from donating blood after your miscarriage."


He lectured me for another ten minutes without pause. I agreed to everything he said.


After a brief examination, I took my test results and left the hospital.


In the main lobby by the payment counter, I ran into Caelan, who was carrying a thermos.


He eyed me suspiciously, his gaze lingering on the report in my hand.


"Still acting? Serenity, quit the charade. Your tricks have been exposed."


I stared at him blankly, saying nothing.


"Since you're here, take this soup to Faye. She's not feeling well."


He noticed my strange gait, but before he could ask, his attention was drawn away by a message on his phone.


The man's lips curled into a gentle smile as he replied:


"I was driving back when I saw that bakery you love has reopened. I got a bit sidetracked, but I'll be there soon."I bitterly smiled, not listening to anything else.


Faye's excuse for her memory lapse was clumsy, yet Caelan was willing to believe it.


When we reached the hospital room, Faye had just hung up the phone.


She looked up with a smile, eyeing my half-lame leg with an inscrutable expression.


"Serenity, how did you become a cripple in just a few hours?"


"Three years have passed, and you're still as useless as ever."


"Watching your boyfriend dote on another woman, seeing your own child beaten out of you, and you can still swallow your grievances. I feel sorry for you!"


She tossed the ultrasound report in front of me, smiling with both innocence and cruelty.


Four weeks ago, I was in the hospital undergoing chemotherapy.


At that time, I was in so much pain that I was drenched in cold sweat. When I called Caelan,


He impatiently said he was on a business trip, told me not to bother him, and quickly hung up.


So that's what his so-called business trip was - accompanying Faye.


I set down the thermos in my hand and turned to leave.


Faye, angered by my cold attitude, grabbed my wrist and pushed me to the ground.


Not satisfied, Faye opened the lid and poured the hot soup over me."What are you playing at, acting all high and mighty?!"


"You've been desperately chasing Caelan for five years, and he still won't marry an old hag like you!"


"Who are you trying to fool now with this victim act? Caelan won't pity you at all!"


Suddenly, Faye let out a startled cry and fell straight backward.


Before I could react, Caelan had already caught her in his arms.


"Serenity, if I've done something wrong, I'll apologize, okay? Please just leave me alone..."


Caelan's eyes were filled with rage as he looked at me.


"I just asked you to come up and bring Faye some soup, why are you so angry?"


"If you have any complaints, take them out on me. Faye is innocent! Her wounds haven't even healed yet!"


I painfully propped myself up, my exposed skin bright red from the scalding hot soup.


"Caelan, I'm the one who's been with you for five years. How can you just believe what Faye says?"
