Chapter 424
Lola felt a bit relieved when she saw that Yolanda was also pregnant. She wouldn't be that stupid to harm her.
"What do you want?" Lola didn't want to let her come inside; for the safety of her own babies, she had to be as far away from that woman as she possibly could.
Yolanda enviously looked at Lola's big belly. She had already heard that she was having twins.
"Nothing special, but I just wanted to visit you, since you are close to giving birth." She then slowly started moving closer Lola.
But Lola backed up several steps, and warned her, "That's none of your business. Don't come near me any closer."
Yolanda ignored her warning and kept pressing ahead. Her moves filled Lola with a bad feeling, and so she returned back to the castle in big strides. "Tom, get her out of here." She ordered Tom, the guard that was standing behind her.
Tom instantly rushed over to pull back Yolanda, but Yolanda angrily watched him, pressing nearer. Then, she threatened him, "Will you be able to be held accountable if something ever happens to the baby inside of me?" This made Tom hesitate in his actions.
When he halted, Yolanda then rushed behind Lola, who had managed to enter the castle. On her right was a large swimming pool.
Then it all happened. With all her strength, Yolanda pulled Lola and ran with her towards the pool.
"Ah!" Lola screamed in panic. She then knelt down and hit her belly against the pool's sill.
Tom hastily rushed over and tried to control Yolanda. Unable to move any further, Yolanda just pushed Lola into the water, trying to drown her.
The pool wasn't deep, but not shallow either. Lola sank, and while she choked on the water, she struggled to lift her head up, but in vain.
Yolanda began laughing hysterically. She cursed her in her mind. "Miscarry! Miscarry, Lola! Oh, she doesn't know how to swim. If she doesn't have a miscarriage, then she'll drown."
This completely shocked and scared Tom. He released Yolanda and then jumped into the water to rescue Lola.
In the midst of all this mess, Yolanda crept out of the manor, took a car and left the place.
Lola had almost drowned when someone held her head up above the water.
Tom and another guard dragged Lola back to safety.
"It hurts..." Lola couldn't help but scream painfully as her labor pains suddenly began.
Two guards then called Harry and reported of the incident right away.
When he received their call, Harry immediately left the meeting he was in and then drove back.
If something bad were to happen to Lola, he would kill the woman with his own hands, without waiting for Lola's advice or ideas.
Seeing that the guard called again, Harry knew that things weren't going well.
And he was right. "Boss, Mrs. Lewis... Mrs. Lewis is about to give birth to the twins..." Tom's trembling voice came sounding from the phone's speaker.
Harry hung up and then rushed to the manor at full speed.
He put on his blue-tooth earphone with one hand, and dialed Chuck's number with the other.
He tried to calm himself down, and said, "My wife is in labor." But his voice still quivered.
He ran past several red lights and even caused a rear-end collision, but he ignored all of this and instead kept accelerating the car.
After hanging up, Chuck pondered curiously why was Lola having the baby now when the due date was about a dozen days later.
But he didn't have much time to think it through, and so he quickly called over the gynecologist and prepared the surgical stuff together.
Finally, Harry made it to the manor. With a screech, Harry hit the brake and then rushed inside the castle.
The sight of Lola beside the pool made Harry's heart break into a thousand pieces.
With one of her hands she held tight onto her big belly, and with the other groped around, quivering. Her face was pale, almost ashen.
Beneath her blood was flowing.
He hastily ran over to her, grasped her hand and held up her neck.
"Honey..." She was too weak to say even one word. She felt terrible, and her belly ached.
Lola's feebleness made Harry's eyes brim with tears. Her wife was laying on the ground and was in great peril.
"No, nothing bad could ever happen to her," thought Harry deep down. "Lola, I order you to stay awake and alive. I'll send you to the hospital now."
He held her up, sat with her on the back seat and asked one of the guards to drive.
"Hurry up!" Harry's impatient and cold voice was so intimidating that Tom panicked and didn't even start the car successfully at the first try. But he then thought about the three lives hanging on the back seat, and he calmed himself down and began starting the car again.
"Lola, we are going to the hospital now. Lola, look at me! Stay with me!" Lola then gripped his hand, her forehead sweating heavily.
Her face was all pale, and she bit her lip painfully.
She tried to open her eyes for a moment, and then saw Harry's worried face. She smiled, relieved.
During her most painful moments of her life, her husband was with her. That was wonderful.
The car's backseat had been soaked with her blood.
It was too scary to look at it, and Harry ordered again, "Hurry up!" Harry roared, making Tom nearly release the steering wheel because of the fear he instilled.
The blood slowly began dripping down the seat...
Harry looked at the blood in dismay. "Lola... Lola, please stay with me. Please, open your eyes and look at me." Harry howled again, his heart sinking deeper and deeper.
Lola felt it hard to breathe; she was too tired and feeble.
Seeing Harry's red, worried eyes, she smiled and consoled, "Honey... I'm really grateful for... for what you've done for me... I was very happy in those days... Save our babies at least... Save the babies." She barely finished the sentence because of the overwhelming pain. She wanted to touch his face, but her hands were too weak.
Harry held Lola even more tightly in his arms. "Lola! Listen, if anything ever happens to you, I'll have all of them butchered. If you don't want a genocide on your hands, you have to hold on for a little while longer." He threatened her madly. He couldn't lose her.
But she was too weak to answer him, and she couldn't even move her lips anymore. She didn't want to die. She wanted to look and raise their babies...
One of the twins might look like Harry, the man she loved so dearly. She hoped that they could both be boys, so that they could protect Nicole when they grew up...
"Lola, we're almost at the hospital now, I can see it. Hang on, hang on, you'll see our babies really soon..." Harry was so scared that Lola might pass out on her, and he kept talking to her. His voice trembled with fear like never before.
When he mentioned of their babies, Lola tried to open her eyes again.
She could feel that she was bleeding all the way, but she just wished that her babies were are alright...
She put her hand in Harry's big palm, and with her last strength, she uttered, "Honey, I love you..." She loved him with all her heart!
She had fallen in love with him from the first time they had married.
She loved him because he was always sweet and caring to her, despite his coldness and loftiness to others.
She was obsessed with him. She really missed their happy days in Paris, Switzerland and the Maldives. Ah, such splendid times!
