Overwhelmed by the Billionaire’s Persistent Pursuit

Chapter 407: Milton breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that Candice was okay and asked, "Is she awake? Can I see her now?" "Yes. The anesthesia is wearing off. The nurse has just moved her to the VIP ward. Enter through the side door, turn right, and proceed to the second room. You will find her there," Dariel said. "Thank you." Milton followed Dariel's directions to the VIP ward and found Candice there. Before pushing the door open, Milton hesitated. He was unsure how to approach Candice after the trauma of losing their baby.

However, knowing her safety was paramount, he finally opened the door and stepped inside. He saw the nurse who had been caring for Candice and administering her infusion. Upon seeing Milton, the nurse respectfully bowed and left the ward. He approached Candice gently. Candice lay on the white bed, her long black hair cascading over the pillow. The room was bare and sterile, making her seem even more lonely in the sparse surroundings. She did not turn to acknowledge Milton's arrival, even though she knew someone had entered.

During the operation, she had briefly awakened, and without general anesthesia, she had felt the moment her baby was taken from her body. She felt nauseous but couldn't bring herself to vomit. Her legs trembled uncontrollably, amplifying the sensation. Even now, a sharp pain lingered in her lower body. But the pain in her heart was far deeper. Another family member had left her, and like her parents before, they would never return. Your escape begins with gⱯlnσνℓs․m She felt utterly alone, despite the many people in the world. A profound loneliness enveloped her entire being.

She recognized the man standing behind her as Milton, the one who had caught her from the stairs. Though her back was turned to him, he could see the pallor of her face and the veins pulsing beneath her translucent skin. His heart ached for her. He longed to comfort her with a gentle embrace. But as he reached out to touch her, she suddenly rejected him with a cold command, "Don't touch me!" Milton's hand froze as he heard her words. Still with her back turned to him, Candice sneered sarcastically, "Are you satisfied with the miscarriage? I heard you signed the consent form on my behalf.

How dare you make such a decision without considering my will?" Milton felt a wave of embarrassment and gently placed his hand on her long hair. He knew he had misspoken earlier, mistakenly believing the baby was Greyson's. He had suggested that Candice have an abortion because he didn't want her to raise another man's child, but he never expected the tragic outcome. . . .
