“I already looked at your medical record in the computer. Did you have an OB checkup before? What
did that doctor tell you that time?”
Georgia Lane could feel that her hands violently trembled. She chokingly spoke.
“The last time I had an OB checkup, the doctor told me that the baby in my tummy was not in a good
condition. I might lose the baby… She also told me that if I can’t hear the baby’s heartbeat the next
time I have a checkup, I should get ready…”
Georgia cried as she spoke, and the doctor sighed at Georgia.
“We couldn’t hear the baby’s heartbeat when we were doing the ultrasound. We also couldn’t see the
embryo. Miss Lane, you should just give up on this child.”
When the doctor said that, Georgia’s tears flowed down from her eyes. She held the doctor’s hand
nervously and asked as she cried.
“Doctor, is there really no other solution? I really want to keep this child. I want to keep it!”
However, the doctor shook his head pitifully.
“Miss Lane, it’s not that I don’t want to help you keep your child. It’s just that the fertilized egg already
had defects. It’s already a stillborn baby now. Do you understand?”
“I know. It’s all my fault. I wasn’t eating properly… I worked overtime… I was too concentrated on
clearing my own injustices that I wasn’t able to care about my baby. It’s all my fault…”
Georgia cried as she spoke. The doctor, who also watched the news, sighed at Georgia who was right
in front of him.
“Miss Lane, you’re panicking from your own tension now. You also studied medicine, so you should
know that the development of the pre-fertilized egg is mainly based on the nutrients in the yolk. This
has nothing to do with what the mother eats in the first three months. You should also know that most
of the mothers couldn’t eat anything in the first three months and even lose weight. However, this
wouldn’t affect the development of the child inside the womb. The condition of your baby now wasn’t a
result of your overtime and overwork. It was because of the defects they already have during the
fertilization process. Nature is indeed cruel. They would proactively eliminate embryos that are not
suitable for further development. This is not your fault, Miss Lane. I suggest you to have a surgery as
soon as possible. If you continue to keep this stillborn baby inside your womb, your body will be heavily
burdened by it…”
Georgia didn’t clearly hear what the doctor said in the latter part. She knew that what the doctor said
was right. The development of the embryo wasn’t based on nutrients that the mother ate in the first
three months. She also knew that she should see the reality clearly and immediately agree to the
doctor to do the operation.
However, Georgia couldn’t speak a word. The doctor could only advise her to go home and take a rest.
She also needed to make a decision within three days to arrange an operation as soon as possible. It
couldn’t be delayed any longer.
Georgia stumbled as she walked out of the doctor’s office, so Professor Lee’s assistant worriedly asked
her.
“Miss Lane, you don’t look very well. Do you want me to call the professor?”
Georgia cried as she shook her head.
“Can you help me get into the car? I can’t properly walk right now.”
Georgia didn’t dare cry out loud in the hospital where people come and go. As soon as she sat in the
car, she broke down and cried out loud.
Both Professor Lee’s assistant and driver didn’t know what to say. They could only sit in front and
watch Georgia as she cried in the back seat.
All they could do was give Georgia a box of tissue to let her wipe the tears on her face.
She cried for more than half an hour. Then, Georgia finally stopped crying.
Her eyes were completely red and swollen. She initially wanted to give Robert Simpson a surprise
today by telling him about the child in her tummy. However, at this moment, Georgia didn’t dare to
speak a word anymore.
She didn’t know how she should tell Robert about this. Her rationality told her that maybe she should
tell Robert, so that they could face it together. However, she didn’t have the courage to do so.
“Let’s go home first.”
Georgia finally spoke to the driver. She only wanted to lie down and sleep peacefully in bed once she
came home. Maybe all of this was just a nightmare. She would wake up again and everything was just
fictitious.
Once they came back to the villa, it was just two o’clock in the afternoon. Mrs. Bender saw how red and
swollen Georgia’s eyes were and how pale her face was, so she worriedly asked.
“Mrs. Simpson, did something happen?”
Georgia asked Mrs. Bender.
“Where’s Robert? Where is he right now?”
“Mr. Simpson hasn’t come home yet. Do you need me to call him?”
Georgia shook her head.
“How about Annie? Where is she right now?”
“After Miss Cooke came over, she brought a guest, Miss Clarke. Both of them took Annie to play
outside. They will probably be back before dinner.”
Georgia just wanted to lock herself in the room to cry and have a good sleep while nobody was around
right now.
“Mrs. Bender, you don’t have to worry about me. You also don’t need to tell Robert. I just want to take a
rest for a while in the bedroom right now.”
Georgia slowly walked into the bedroom. As soon as she sat on the bed, huge droplets of tears fell
again from her eyes.
She actually understood already that she needed to make an appointment for the surgery with the
doctor.
But she was hurt by the sadness in her heart. She didn’t have the courage to call the hospital and ask
them to prepare for the operation.
She was indecisive for a long while. Finally, Georgia sent a message to the contact number left by the
doctor.
“Can I make an appointment for the surgery to be scheduled at tomorrow afternoon? I’ll come again
tomorrow.”
After the doctor replied and agreed, Georgia immediately plopped herself on the bed. She just wanted
to get some sleep.
Maybe after waking up, all of those pains would be completely gone.
However, before she could close her eyes and sleep, Georgia heard a knock on the bedroom door.
She walked towards the door and opened it. Then, she saw Sherlyn standing in the doorstep.
Why did this woman come here again?
She heard that something happened in Sherlyn’s home, so she took a day off to deal with it. Georgia
almost forgot that Robert hired this nutritionist for her. However, this woman came back again, so she
asked in confusion.
“Miss Sherlyn, I need to rest right now. Is there anything you need?”
Just when Georgia spoke, Sherlyn suddenly took a rag and covered Georgia’s mouth.
Georgia only realized that she was in danger by then. She struggled fiercely, but she fainted right after
a few seconds.
Georgia didn’t know what happened after that. When she woke up, Georgia realized that her entire
body was tied together.
Georgia looked around and saw that there was someone else who was also tied up next to her. This
person turned out to be Travis Armstrong.
Georgia panicked and shouted.
“Travis, wake up. Please wake up…”
Georgia’s mouth wasn’t covered, so she anxiously shouted at Travis.
After about a minute, Travis slowly opened his eyes.
He drowsily looked at Georgia, then he looked down and saw that he was tied up. Travis confusingly
asked.
“Gigi, what happened to us? Where is this place?”
Georgia bitterly laughed.
“Travis, I also don’t know where this is. When I was at home, someone called Sherlyn covered my nose
and mouth, and I fainted. When I woke up, I’m already here. How about you? How did you get here?”
Travis frowned as he recalled.
“I always stayed in the ward in the hospital before. Afterward, someone came to the door in my ward.
You also know that there are a few people guarding me. I don’t know what that person said, but they
actually opened the door and watched as I was taken away to this place. I don’t know who those
people are. After that, I also fainted. Then, when I woke up, I saw you here.”
“Gigi, are we held captive by a bad guy?”
Georgia nodded helplessly. She remembered what happened to Travis ten years ago. She always felt
that maybe the reason she and Travis were in trouble now was because of the two unsuccessful
attempts in murder of Travis before.
Both of them helplessly and bitterly smiled. Travis was still clueless, but Georgia couldn’t help but ask.
“Travis, you’ve told me before that you’re slowly regaining your memory, but has your memory still not
completely recovered?”
Travis shook his head.
“Sometimes when I dream in my sleep, I would remember a piece of memory from the scattered bits.
However, they’re all fragmented; I can’t connect them at all. I also couldn’t figure out my memory and
what happened in the past.”
Both of them were locked inside an abandoned warehouse. Nobody could be seen around, so the
people guarding were probably outside the warehouse. They didn’t even know where this place was.
Georgia started to worry.
She didn’t know if Robert knew that she had gone missing.
Of course, Robert knew. From the moment Georgia fainted, the people who captured her sent him a
message. They took a picture of Georgia after she was captured and sent it to Robert’s phone.
“Mr. Simpson, if you want the person you love to survive, you should let the body guards guarding
Travis back down. We’re going to leave with that man.”
At that time, Robert just finished a meeting with some neurologists and neurosurgeons. As soon as he
saw the photo where Georgia was tied up, Robert panicked. He called the number that sent the
message, but the opposite side transmitted a robotic sound.
“Mr. Simpson, our people are already outside Travis’ ward. Please call them right now and let us take
Travis away. Or else, I will stab your beloved woman right into her chest.”
Robert could only helplessly agree to this request. In the next two hours, Travis and Georgia
completely went missing. He sent many people to find them, but they couldn’t find anything about
Georgia at all.
On the other hand, all of the people in the security system were knocked out inside Robert’s villa. Only
Georgia left.
Annie and Vanessa Cooke already came back. When she learned that her mommy had gone missing,
Annie started crying loudly. Robert could only promise Annie that he would definitely bring Georgia
back home.
At this point, Robert helplessly called Aidan Simpson for help.
After that, he called Jason Murphy and Jasper Holland and also asked them to help.
Many people started looking for Georgia, but they still couldn’t find anything. Those people didn’t seem
to want to kidnap them. Their target was only Travis.
When he thought how Travis almost died twice before, he knew that those people weren’t after money.
Robert almost went crazy from worrying.
Just when he was about to be desperate, Robert received a call from an unknown woman.
“Hi Mr. Simpson, I’m Miranda. I have something to tell you about Georgia.”
