Chapter 393 Taking It Back
“If purely from a doctor’s perspective, my recommendation is to not have any babies. Forever.”
The doctor then said in a neutral tone, “But she’s already pregnant now. That’s all… up to you.”
Melanie clenched her fists tightly, her heart thumping.
She had already made all the necessary preparations. As soon as Jeffrey said he wanted her to abort
the baby, she would escape! She would escape far away… Even if she had to change her whole
identity, she would
never let him find her!
The office was very quiet, so quiet that the silence in the corridor made her own irregular heartbeat
deafening. She finally heard Jeffrey’s voice a long while later saying…
“That’s her child. Her opinion on this is the most important.”
Melanie’s grip instantly loosened. She didn’t hear it wrongly, right?
“Mr. Jeffrey, our families have been acquainted for a very long time. Please allow me to be straight with
you. I know that her heart once belonged to Emma, and she donated it to her. If she were in danger
during the pregnancy, a normal pregnant mother would still have the chance of choosing to save the
mother or the child. But in her case, she would most likely end up dead with the baby. And then, Emma

“Emma’s already long gone from this world.”
Jeffrey’s voice was shaking slightly. “That heart had already melded with Melanie a long time ago. It
now has her memories, her thoughts. It no longer belongs to Emma, not for a long time…”
“You’re saying that…?” Even the doctor was shocked.
“I only realized it afterward, and that’s why we have so many misunderstandings between us. If she’s
really in danger, but I don’t care about her but only that heart, am I still human?” Jeffrey asked calmly.
“That means you’re not going to tell her that you know she’s pregnant?”
“She can make the decision. All I need to do is to watch over her.”
Jeffrey’s voice returned to how reassuring it was usually. “I’ll ask the other doctors from the other
hospitals to get prepared in secret so that they’ll tell her about the hidden risks when she goes over for
her checkup. If she decides to keep the child after considering everything, then I’ll use everything I
have to protect them.”
“It’s fine if you want to protect them, but you should protect yourself first. If you get another wound
infection, even the gods can’t save you…” the doctor warned him.
Melanie could feel the sadness inside of her as her fingers holding the door trembled slightly.
She slowly turned around and walked back into the ward, her vision blurred by her tears. The path
forward had been shattered into countless fragments.

Minutes later…
When Jeffrey got back to the ward in a wheelchair, Melanie’s emotions had returned back to normal.
“You’re awake?” he asked in shock.
William pushed him, and he looked at her warmly. “Do you still feel any pain?”
Melanie said nothing as she hugged the blanket in her arms.
Jeffrey stood up from the wheelchair and held his stomach as he sat on the bed. William left when the
chance presented itself.
“What is it?”
He looked at her almond–shaped eyes. “Are you still worried about me? I’m fine now. I was simply
getting some fresh air just now.”
“Why did I faint?” Melanie asked without raising her head..
“You worked too much. It was from fatigue,” Jeffrey said. “The doctor said to take more rest and work
less.”

Melanie didn’t dare to raise her head, worried that he would see her tears.
She didn’t know if it was because of progesterone. But when she thought back about all the
awkwardness and the misunderstandings between them, she felt especially upset and she couldn’t
stop her tears.
She tried to suppress her sobs and asked, “Where’s the divorce paper?”
Jeffrey was speechless.
He pursed his lips. In the end, she still wanted a divorce. He gritted his teeth and said, “I told you. I
won’t sign that thing!”
“Why are you being so aggressive?!”
Melanie raised her head and said, “I don’t care if you want to sign it or not, but I signed it! Now, I want it
back!”
Jeffrey realized that she had tears on her face, and they were still flowing down her cheeks, one drop
at a time…
He instantly frowned deeply, as he wasn’t sure what to do. He was so distressed that he said, “Why are
you crying? Come on, I’ll give it to you if you want it…”
When he was about to wipe her tears away, he suddenly realized what she meant and was stunned
before saying, “Are you saying… you don’t want a divorce?”
