Chapter 326: THEY LOST IT
Hailee was free when she managed to close the elevator doors and pressed the emergency button which brought the elevator to a stop so she could feel a little safer in here.
Hailee could still hear Giana\'s voice screaming to order the three men to forcefully open the elevator doors and also Aileen\'s voice urging them to do the same.
These two women…
Hailee will never forget this incident… never.
However, her hatred for the two women could wait, because at this moment Hailee felt her stomach contracting violently, making her gasp until it was hard to breathe.
With her head spinning and her eyes glazed over, Hailee pressed her back against the elevator wall and started slumping down while clutching her stomach which was in great pain.
"Soon, honey… Daddy will be here soon…" Hailee whispered softly in the narrow room, as if her agitated baby could hear her. "You must be in pain... sorry..." Hailee said while sobbing, because the pain was getting unbearable.
She knew that she just needed to hold on a little longer, because Ramon was already there and also, now Hailee could no longer hear the screams and grunts from Giana and Aileen, which signaled that the two women had left.
But Hailee wanted to wait a little longer, just to make sure that Ramon really came, or until she was sure that the house had been taken over by Ramon\'s people.
Soon…
However, Hailee\'s heart chilled when she saw the blood flowing from her lower body, soaking the floor below her. It felt warm against her cold skin.
"Oh no… no…" Hailee panicked and this made things even worse for her. "No… this can\'t be happening."
Hailee then tried to stand up, but her lower body felt numb and she could no longer feel her legs.
"Ramon…" Hailee then banged on the elevator door while crying. She wished someone could hear her, even though her voice or the smacks of her hand sounded so weak, even to herself. "Ramon..."
And when a new wave of pain hit her, Hailee felt her body lighten up and darkness greeted her… giving her a strange calm that made her even more anxious.
She had to tell Ramon that she was here…
===============
Lexus ran along the hospital corridor while Lis followed behind him. They both looked panicked and worried when they heard from David that Hailee had been found, but her condition didn\'t look very good and they were now in the hospital waiting for Hailee to come back to her senses.
Lexus arrived first and opened the door to the room a little harshly, so Ramon raised his head and looked at whoever entered the room with a fierce look.
However, as soon as he saw it was Lexus, Ramon immediately lowered his head again and ignored his younger brother, because at this time, Hailee was still lying unconscious.
Lexus was panting, his heart beating very fast, his steps faltering as he tried to approach Hailee and Ramon.
"How… how are things?" he stammered. Even when he asked this, he still hoped that nothing bad happened to his sister-in-law, or else things would never be the same again.
Ramon answered Lexus\'s question in a flat tone devoid of any emotion, as if he wasn\'t the one talking, or he wasn\'t the object of the question.
And just as Ramon answered his brother, Lis had just arrived at the door of the room where Hailee was being treated and heard what her son had to say.
"She just had a surgery," replied Ramon with a flat and emotionless face, with his eyes glued to Hailee\'s face, which still had bruises on it.
"Operation?" Lexus felt his heart suddenly stop and didn\'t want to ask his next question, but there was no way he could hold it in. "Operation… surgery for what?"
"The baby didn\'t survive," said Ramon. Even now, Ramon was still unable to properly understand what that meant.
Yes, Ramon understood that their baby was not safe, which meant they wouldn\'t be carrying their first child after the next five months, which meant, there wouldn\'t be a new member in their little family within the time they have been told and neither would the nursery which Ramon had prepared… it would not likely be filled by their first child.
Because their son has gone...
However, Ramon couldn\'t sort out the emotions he was feeling. Is it sadness? Anger? Disappointment? Anxiety? Worry? Or what?
Ramon didn\'t understand his own feelings and didn\'t know what he should be feeling. Should he cry over the loss of their child? Should he be angry because he had done a worse job in taking care of Hailee? Should he avenge all of this and destroy the people who had hurt Hailee and their child?
For the latter, of course Ramon would do. He swore he would.
But, for now, for this second, Ramon just wanted to be beside Hailee. He didn\'t want to do anything. He just wanted to sit there staring at her, waiting for her to open her eyes.
And Hailee could tell him what kind of feeling he should be feeling right now. Because right now, all Ramon felt was emptiness.
There were so many emotions wrestling inside of him that he couldn\'t fathom one by one and therefore, as a defense, Ramon was numbing himself.
"The baby… didn\'t survive…" Lexus repeated the sentence and the sentence felt strange on his tongue, even sounding unreal. "Impossible..." he mumbled.
Then he looked back at Ramon and Hailee, then Hailee\'s flat stomach… Lexus blinked a few times, but he still couldn\'t accept the fact.
He wanted to ask if Ramon was joking with him, but of course he couldn\'t say that, because he himself knew that wasn\'t true. Ramon couldn\'t possibly be joking at a time like this and it wasn\'t about the right thing either…
Meanwhile, at the door of the room, Lis fell to the ground while covering her mouth, to suppress her sobs. She cried as she learned that her son had lost his child…
Lis\'s sobs were the only sound that could be heard in the room…
