Chapter 751 Please Stay
Because they were to leave by cargo ship, they couldn’t take their car with them.
Therefore, Tobey had to park the car at the roadside, which was quite far away from the pier.
To avoid letting the cat out of the bag, they ran immediately after getting out of the car and tried to board the cargo ship before 11:00 a.m.
In addition to the strenuous exercise, Deirdre had not slept for a night already. Hence, she felt her lower abdomen aching.
Covering her lower abdomen, she felt a stream of heat under her body, along with a sharp pain.
“What’s wrong, Deirdre? Are you tired?”
Deirdre shook her head with her face white as a sheet.
“Endure a bit. The cargo ship won’t wait for us. We’ll be fine as long as we get there,” comforted Tobey.
“Okay.”
Deirdre nodded. She didn’t tell Tobey about her body’s condition. As time waited for no man, she stretched herself to the extreme and paced forward until she finally got to the pier.
She heaved a sigh of relief when she felt that her lower abdomen wasn’t as painful as it was. Following that, she heard her phone ring.
Tobey took a look while Deirdre answered the call after she hesitated slightly. Brendan should have just gotten off the plane. Therefore, she planned to comfort him to earn them a higher chance of escaping.
When she pressed the button to accept the call, she heard Brendan’s pleading voice amidst a noisy environment. “Deirdre, don’t leave…”
Deirdre was startled.
Brendan sounded as though he was crying, and his voice was weak. But when
Deirdre tried to listen carefully, she couldn’t hear it clearly.
“Deirdre, I’m sorry, don’t go! Please, I beg you! Please stay!”
Gnashing her teeth, Deirdre determinedly cut off the call and threw the phone into the water.
“What’s wrong?”
Deirdre’s lips were discolored, and she shook her head as she replied, ” Quickly, Brendan has realized it.”
She didn’t know how Brendan had realized it. It sounded like he was near the airport, but she was running out of time to find out.
After greeting the cargo ship’s crew, they entered the cargo hold. It seemed to contain some smelly stuff, which led to the cargo hold becoming very smelly.
Tobey took off his jacket and put it on a box so that Deirdre could sit on it.
Deirdre felt that the cargo ship had begun to move, signaling that it had already departed. She looked up and asked, “How long will it take to get to Surstate?”
“Shortest is a day and a half, and the longest is three days.”
Seeing Deirdre holding her lower abdomen tightly, Tobey asked, “Are you alright? You don’t look good since you got out of the car. Are you sick?”
“I’m alright…” Deirdre shook her head and got herself a good reason. “I think I look bad because I didn’t have enough sleep. I’ll be fine after taking a nap.”
“Hold on.”
Tobey made a small bed with a couple of boxes and spread a mat he took out of
Deirdre’s bag on it.
“Sleep on it first while I go to ask around for a suitable blanket.”
Deirdre went to sit on the makeshift bed. Tobey got his jacket and saw the blood on her when he was about to cover Deirdre with it.
“What’s this?” Tobey’s eyes constricted with shock. “Why is there blood? Deirdre! Are you injured?”
Deirdre’s mind went blank, and she didn’t know what to say about the blood.
“I have my period.”
From her face, however, Tobey saw she was at a loss. He grabbed Deirdre’s shoulder. “Tell me the truth! What’s wrong with you?”
Deirdre’s eyes were red as she replied somewhat forlornly, “I’m sorry, Tobey. I’m pregnant.”
“You are pregnant!?” Tobey was furious. “Are you nuts!? You’re pregnant, yet you were running with me and boarded this ship! Do you know that no one can save you if anything happens to you!?”
