"No!"
There was a heart-wrenching cry from Anna.
Her wrists and ankles were marked with horrifying red lines, almost embedded with the iron chains due to her intense struggling.
But even so,
She still couldn't protect her baby.
When the transparent liquid was fully injected into her body, Anna's beautiful eyes instantly widened in despair.
“Baby.. My baby.”
She never expected that Mia would actually dare...
Her baby was everything to her.
It was everything that kept her going.
She didn't want to lose her baby!
She didn't want to!
Transparent tears flowed out from her eyes in large drops.
Anna glared at Mia with bloodshot eyes filled with endless hatred: "Mia! You wicked and heartless woman! You dare to hurt my baby! I will never let you go in this lifetime! Mia! You will have a miserable end! You will have a miserable end!"
Hearing her desperate cries and sobbing, Mia furrowed her brows slightly with a look of disgust on her face, and said coldly: "Stop making noise! Gag her!"
A doctor casually stuffed a wad of gauze into Anna's mouth.
Now, She could no longer cry or yell, only let out painful sobbing from her throat.
At this moment, Anna wished her baby could be stronger and stay in her womb for a while longer.
However, it didn't take long before the excruciating knife-like pain in her lower abdomen arrived as expected.
Anna knew that this was a sign of childbirth.
When the pain struck, she felt overwhelming panic and despair.
She desperately endured it.
She deluded herself into thinking that as long as she endured the pain, her baby would not leave her.
However,
Waves of pain continued to assail her, tormenting her more and more.
It felt as if her bones were being crushed one by one, causing excruciating pain in every inch of her body.
Anna's face turned pale from the pain, and her forehead was covered in dense beads of sweat.
Veins bulged on the back of her hand.
Her wrists were bloodied from the iron chains, but shedidn’t seem to feel the pain on her wrists.
Because the twisting pain in her abdomen almost made her wish for death.
As Mia coldly watched Anna suffer in agony, her expression remained indifferent and unchanged.
It was as if, to her, Anna was nothing more than a surrogate, a free womb, a machine that could ensure the stability of her marriage.
All she wanted was the baby in her belly.
As for Anna, what did it matter to her if she died in pain?
Just then—
An abrupt ringtone broke the silence.
Mia picked up her phone and when she saw the flashing words "husband" on the screen, she quickly softened her cold expression, trying hard to put on a gentle smile. She answered the call in a soft voice, "Hi, baby"
A cold male voice came from the other end of the line.
"What are you doing?"
"I—I'm resting at home. Now that I'm in the later stage of pregnancy, I'm afraid of harming the baby, so I don't dare to go out casually."
Hearing the sudden softness in Mia's tone and attitude, Anna knew that the person on the other end of the line must be Larry.
She desperately emitted a sobbing sound from her throat, hoping that Larry would hear it.
She wanted Larry to know what kind of crazy and wicked things the kind woman, and the good wife in his eyes was doing behind his back.
She wanted Larry to sense that something was wrong, and save their baby.
Maybe he heard something unusual, as Larry furrowed his brows and asked, "What sound was that on your end?"
Instantly, Mia became nervous.
With a hateful glare at Anna, she gave a signal to the doctor, who rudely covered Anna's mouth.
Then, she turned away and spoke in the same gentle tone, "Nothing, I was just watching TV earlier. Maybe you heard the sound from the TV. By the way, Larry, when are you coming back?"
"Tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Mia was startled.
"What? You, you're coming back tomorrow?"
Wasn't it agreed that he would be away on a business trip for a week?
Why is he coming back so soon?
"Is there a problem?"
"Oh, nothing. I heard that you're coming back early, I—I'm just so happy."
