人妻少妇中文字幕乱码

Valerie felt she had just been doused in cold water, and she couldn\'t believe it. "No! Everything proceeded normally in my last pregnancy check-up, and the doctor said the baby was very healthy!"

"In fact," the doctor continued, "your fetus has not had a heartbeat for several days. You\'ve been feeling soreness in your lower back and belly occasionally lately, right? That\'s one of the associated symptoms. The baby is often highly affected by the mother\'s emotional state. The fetal heart probably stopped due to your mood change."

Because of her mood? She didn\'t think that her mood had changed at all since her marriage; she\'d never been happy with Devin.

Even on their wedding night, Devin showed her no love. She did not enjoy the happiness of a bride at all.

She had been troubled with abdominal pain these days, and she thought it was normal for a pregnant woman. She had never expected it to affect her baby like this.

She had even tried to bump Savannah into a miscarriage at the mall today, but it turned out that it\'s her baby who was killed! No! Without this child, she could envision how her position in the Sterling family would decline!

The doctor thought she was just too sad to accept the loss of her baby. "Miss," she said, "now you must have an abortion as soon as possible; otherwise, the stillborn baby will cause harm to your health. Could I arrange the operation for you today?"

"No," Valerie leaped to her feet.

"But -"

"I said no, I\'d arrange it myself!" Valerie grew restless, turned around, and shuffled out of the hospital like a ghost.

Seeing the maid waiting in the corridor outside, she composed herself immediately.

She could not let anybody know about this.

Old Sterling would be hopping mad if he knew that she did not take care of the baby and let the baby die.

And Devin, he might really abandon her.

She couldn\'t let her baby die in this way.

Valerie rolled her eyes, composed herself, as if nothing had happened, and walked out slowly.

"Everything okay, madam?" The maid went up to her.

"Of course," Valerie pretended to be relaxed and said, "the doctor said it is normal to feel discomfort during pregnancy occasionally. I need more breaks."

"Oh, well, let\'s go back," said the maid. This baby was extremely important to the older Sterling, and the maid was so nervous every time she accompanied Mrs. Yontz to go shopping.

"Wait," Valerie looked at the maid, coldly, "you mustn\'t tell anyone about my coming to the hospital today."

"Why?" asked the maid, surprised.

"I just don\'t want old Sterling and Devin to worry about me," Valerie squinted and handed the maid a wad of banknotes from her purse.

A happy, surprised look passed over the maid\'s face.

"Keep it a secret, and the money is yours. If you dare to tell anyone, I will make it impossible for you to stay in the Sterling household any longer," Valerie threatened.

Valerie was now the most precious one in the Sterling household, and the maid, of course, dared not to fight against her.

"I won\'t say anything!" The maid took the money and nodded quickly.

***

Old Sterling called Beverly Hills and invited Savannah to come to the Sterling\'s house with Dylan for family day dinner on the weekend. He said it was to celebrate that Dylan had successfully signed a big project in Chicago with the CBR Group.

Old Sterling, fearing rejection from Dylan, called Savannah directly this time. He knew that if Savannah agreed, Dylan would certainly join her.

On Sunday, Dylan took Savannah out of the car at the entrance to the Sterling\'s house.

"Good evening, Mr. Sterling, Miss Schultz. Welcome," Butler Cooper, who was waiting at the gate with a group of servants, bowed to greet them.

Though Savannah had been here several times, she was still nervous.

The fine house, the big garden, as well as a large household of servants, everything in her sight, reminded her that she was in a different world from the man beside her.

And today, she did not know why but felt extremely uneasy. Her eyelids fluttered a moment as if something would happen.

Maybe because Susan would come here on the family day, or, perhaps, because Valerie and Devin lived in this house…

She really didn\'t want to see any of those people.

"Nervous after so many times here? I\'m here for you," Dylan gently wound his arm around her waist and glanced at her.

"If you want to send me back, I wouldn\'t mind. That might be better – I won\'t humiliate you if I\'m not here," Savannah said quietly.

Dylan pulled her closer into him and then leaned down to breathe a soft reply in her ear, assuring her he would not be sending her back. In an instant, the color mounted to her cheeks and ears.

"What are you doing?" She glanced at butler Cooper and other servants in front of them, trying to push the man away.

"It\'s easier to relax and not get nervous in this way," He did not let her push him away, but increased his strength and held her more tightly.

She felt helpless. If anything, he was making this worse by embarrassing her.

Surrounded by servants and held firmly by Dylan in his arms, Savannah entered the house. Everyone was already gathered in the living room, with Old Sterling sitting between Devin and Valerie.

"Dylan, come on, dad\'s been waiting for you," Susan had known that Savannah would come, and she just treated her like the air.

Dylan didn\'t say anything to Susan. Taking Savannah by the arm, he directly walked to his father.

"Say hello," Dylan patted Savannah on the back of her hand.

"Good evening, sir," Savannah sweetly said.

Old Sterling was very satisfied to see them come in such an intimate way.

"Hello, Savannah. I\'m delighted that you\'ve joined us," he smiled, and then turned to Dylan, "You did a good job in Chicago. I called you back today to have dinner together with the family to celebrate. Dylan, you are becoming more and more capable now, and it\'s time for me to retire and hand over everything to you."

Hearing old Sterling speak so highly of his uncle, Devin was filled with jealousy.

"I can\'t take all the credit for the success of the project," Dylan said quietly.

"Oh?" Old Sterling was surprised, "Who helped you?"

"Savannah accompanied me to Chicago this time. I owe it all to Savannah, who had persuaded Mr. Cooley to cooperate with us."

Devin\'s face darkened. He looked at Savannah beside his uncle with an obscure feeling of jealousy.
