Chapter 1302: Chapter 1305: Should We Keep this Child (Extra 3) Chapter 1302: Chapter 1305: Should We Keep this Child (Extra 3) “The right forearm and the inner side of the upper arm have abrasions, the buttocks and thighs are severely bruised, the soft tissues on the outer side of the knee are seriously contused, and the ankle joint is also sprained. However….”
Before Aidan Lucas had arrived, Lily had been taken into the hospital room by two kind doctors.
Dr. Collins, an obstetrician-gynecologist, hurried over upon hearing the news and conducted a consultation with several other doctors.
“The child is fine, without even a hint of bleeding, which shows the baby is very healthy.”
After everyone else had left, Dr. Collins said to Lily,
“I’ve been in this line of work for many years and have seen all sorts of pregnant women. Having a child is all about fate; it can’t be stopped when it’s meant to come, and when you don’t want it, you can’t keep it safe no matter what you do.”
“But Dr. Collins, I….”
“Listen to me. Although some couples choose to terminate a pregnancy after drug consumption, your child… If it were really affected, it would have miscarried on its own. The fact that it didn’t, even with all that commotion just now, means this baby has a bond with you.”
Dr. Collins didn’t give this kind of advice to everyone.
Every patient’s family situation is different, and so are the reasons for wanting to terminate a pregnancy.
Clearly, Lily was worried about the health of the baby. Once she could be sure it wouldn’t be deformed, she would probably look forward to its birth with great joy.
Such a mother, Dr. Collins couldn’t bear to see her lose her own flesh and blood due to a wrong judgment.
“Dr. Collins, I….”
Before Lily could finish, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open from the outside.
The tall and impressive figure of Aidan Lucas appeared at the doorway.
“Lily….” his handsome face was filled with concern.
He strode quickly over and hugged Lily tightly in his arms.
“Ah, it hurts… it hurts….”
Aidan’s embrace pulled at her bruised thigh.
The man immediately let go of her and began to inspect her carefully, “Did I hurt you?”
“Baby, it’s my fault, I’m sorry.” The man’s attitude was unusually protective and gentle.
Lily even felt that this tone was very familiar, very much like the Aidan Lucas of the past.
Without the aggression overlaying it, this secondary personality even seemed to have elements of his primary one.
“How are you, does anything else hurt? Where are you injured, is it bad?”
Lily had thought that as soon as Aidan Lucas arrived, he would ask about her pregnancy.
But he didn’t mention it at all, instead checking her thoroughly from head to toe.
When he saw her arm wrapped in bandages, her bruised calf and swollen ankle, the man’s already softened features suddenly turned icy cold, returning to the usual harsh and frightening Aidan Lucas.
“I’m okay….” Lily, not wanting him to worry, clutched at a sleeve of his and said, “It’s all soft tissue injuries, sprains, they will heal in a few days.”
The man, however, didn’t speak, silently gazing at her injured ankle.
The chill emanating from within him instantly dropped the temperature in the hospital room to freezing.
Dr. Collins, upon seeing Aidan Lucas, knew that this was Lily’s husband and nodded in approval.
Most men would first ask about the welfare of the unborn child when learning their pregnant wife had been pushed down the stairs.
But this man was different.
His focus had been on his wife right from the start, which was truly commendable.
Dr. Collins had only been instructed by Jacob to keep the matter confidential and didn’t know that this incident had to be kept from Aidan Lucas.
So, standing at the other end of the bed, she said to this impressive young man, “You must be Miss Redington’s husband, hello, I’m the obstetrician-gynecologist here, my name is Dr. Zhang.”
“Here’s the situation, Miss Redington hasn’t decided whether to keep the baby or not. Since you are married, why don’t you both discuss it?”
