Chapter 114 Farewell, Nicholas

Blood couldn’t stop flowing out of her, causing Nancy to feel immense fear.

Mentioning the baby was her last card to play.

If Nicholas didn’t believe her, or if he couldn’t come to her rescue even after this, then she would lose all hope in him.

“Ever since we first had sex, we’ve always been using contraception. If you mention anything else, I might’ve believed you.”

When Nicholas’ voice sounded once again, she felt like her whole world had sunk into darkness, with no glimmer of hope left.

The sun in her world had fallen.

It had fallen forever and would never rise again.

Nancy clutched her phone and uttered her final words resolutely, “Nicholas, whether you choose to believe it or not, I’m not lying to you. I was really in a car accident, and our baby is in critical condition. I will never forgive you even if you discover the truth one day.”

After that, Nancy hung up the call.

Immediately after that, she dialed 911.

She had to survive. She needed to survive. Only then could her baby be safe.

However, as soon as she dialed 911, Nancy broke down as her phone went black.

She tried to restart it many times to no avail.

The phone now lay in her hand like a discarded brick, utterly useless.

If she had known that his response would be like this, she would never have wasted her last lifeline and hope on him.

She would have dialed 911 directly.

But in this world, there was no place for ‘ifs, and there was no room for regret.

Nancy dropped the phone, gritted her teeth, and began to cry in utter agony.

After that, she wiped the tears from her face without any concern for her appearance. She knew that, at this point, no one would come to save her except herself.

“Baby, hold on. Stay strong.”

She had to get out of this car, for that was her only chance.

Nancy wearily shot a glance at the driver’s door, summoned every ounce of her strength, and crawled over, unlocking the door.

The rain was still pouring heavily.

As soon as she opened the door, a heavy downpour gushed in, soaking her completely. Her blood was mixed with the rainwater and cascaded down her body.

At this moment, her white dress was covered in red stains, like vibrant, exotic little flowers blooming on her white canvas.

It was a desolate yet striking sight.

The heavy rain poured down relentlessly, causing Nancy to shiver uncontrollably.

She was so cold that her hands had lost all sensation, probably due to blood loss and the unending pour. Her entire body felt like ice; she looked like someone emerging from a dark cellar.

Finally, she managed to crawl out of the car.

When she tried to stand up, she realized her legs were in excruciating pain.

If her assumption was right, her leg was likely broken.

It hurt a great deal, but even that pain couldn’t compare to the pain in her heart.

The agony that Nicholas had inflicted upon her felt like knives, piercing her heart with every stab to her chest.

What was the physical pain compared to that?

There were very few cars on the road, but at least there were a few.

Nancy struggled to make her way to the roadside, extending her hand and waving desperately. hoping to flag down a passing car to take her to the hospital or at least make a phone call for help.

Alas, the rain was so heavy that some drivers didn’t even notice her waving.

When some saw the gruesome accident on the side of the road, they were afraid of getting involved. Hence, they didn’t dare to stop.

Nancy had no other options, as her life hung in the balance.

When another car approached in the distance, she suddenly shut her eyes, mustered her courage, and ran frantically toward the oncoming vehicle on her very broken leg. She extended her arms

The screeching of brakes filled the air as the car came to a stop just a few centimeters from her.

In other words, if the car had been slightly faster, hadn’t braked, or if she had gotten any closer, she would have been killed right there and then.

The moment Nancy realized she hadn’t died, she opened her eyes and smiled in relief.

Then, she walked to the car door and pleaded, “I’ve been in a car accident. Can you please dial 911 for me? Please?”

Her words had just left her lips when suddenly, the car door was forcefully opened. The next moment, a chubby man with a round face stepped out. Then, he extended his hand and pushed. her to the ground without warning upon seeing her.

Nancy was unprepared for something like that. So, she was sent sprawling quite a distance.

A piercing pain shot through her tailbone, and more importantly, that push caused the blood! beneath her to flow even more profusely.

She was in genuine agony and couldn’t stand up.

When the man saw her covered in bloodstains and drenched from head to toe, he cursed loudly. “Crazy woman! If you want to die, find a secluded place to do it. Why are you bothering me?”

“Look at you, soaked in blood from head to toe! What a terrible day! Urgh, get lost, woman! Get out of my sight!”

The man grumbled as he returned to his car.

After that, Nancy watched helplessly as the vehicle sped away quickly. As he left, the man deliberately splashed a puddle of dirty water onto her, leaving her drenched and disheveled.

Nancy wanted to crawl to the side of the road, well aware of the danger of staying in the middle.

Unfortunately, her body had lost all strength, and even taking a single breath was painful.

She longed for her mother and her grandfather.

Maybe this time, the universe would no longer be kind enough to spare her. She was really going to join them now.

It might be for the best, and she might be happier there than remaining in this world.

If she were there, she would have her loving mother and doting grandfather, who would cherish her, protect her, and ensure she never suffered any harm or injustice.

Besides, her baby would be with her, too.

with you no matter what.”

A smile graced her face as Nancy placed her hand on her abdomen, completely relinquishing her pursuit of life.

She knew there was no one left to save her.

Her mother had passed away, her grandfather was gone, and she couldn’t place hope on her father, a gambling addict.

The person closest to her in this world, her husband, suspected that everything was just a staged drama she directed and refused to believe her.

Perhaps it was just an excuse that he had created for himself.

Even if he believed her, or even if he found out about the car accident and the critical condition she and the baby were in, he had unwaveringly chosen Madelline, the woman he truly cherished.

Nancy, you lost. You lost completely and utterly. You lost without even a chance to fight.

Finally, she came to her senses.

Let’s not be part of each other’s lives again if a second life exists, Nicholas. Farewell, Nicholas. This time, it’s for real.
