Chapter 2 Time To Wake Up

After saying this, Damian turned around and stormed out of the villa.

Caroline slumped down on the sofa, feeling weak all over. After being with him for three years, she was still a vicious woman in his eyes. She felt a sharp pain in her chest as if it was being cut by a knife.

She stood up and went to her room. Looking at her pale face and thin figure in the mirror, she couldn't help smiling bitterly.

Three years ago, Damian was fighting for the property of the Mayson family. And the only requirement of his grandfather for him to inherit the company was he should get married. Since Ximena became a vegetable because of Caroline, she had to marry Damian on behalf of Ximena.

No one knew that Caroline had always liked Damian, so she didn't refuse. In fact, she naively believed that after their marriage, she could change Damian's impression of her. She gave up the opportunity to study abroad and tried her best to please Damian and the people around him. She even took care of Ximena in the hospital, hoping she could clarify the truth when she woke up.

Two months ago, Caroline and Damian had sex by accident. It only happened once, so she didn't expect she would get pregnant. But on the other hand, she also thought that the baby might bring a turning point to their relationship.

To this day, Caroline felt everything was like a joke. It was time to wake up.

It was raining heavily outside. There was a tremendous flash of lightning, followed by a loud crack of thunder. Caroline stopped in the living room, picked up the divorce agreement, and signed her name on it with a trembling hand.

Time flew, and a few months passed quickly. Caroline was now in the delivery room of a hospital in a foreign country.

She kept crying out loud in pain for a while, sweating profusely all over. Then the babies' cries echoed in the delivery room.

The doctor said happily, "Congratulations, Miss Harper. You gave birth to twins."

Caroline's mouth curved into a weak smile. She looked at the babies, breathed a sigh of relief, and fell into a coma.

When she opened her eyes again, the first thing she saw was the white ceiling. She turned her head sideways and looked at the nurse who was changing the infusion bottle. She asked weakly, "Miss, where are my babies? How are they?"

When Caroline left the Mayson family's house a few months ago, she had planned to have an abortion. But when she arrived at the hospital, she changed her mind. She realized she didn't want to lose her babies. In the end, she chose to give birth to the babies without telling the Mayson family.

The nurse paused and hesitated for a while. Then she said, "Miss Harper, I'm very sorry for your loss. Your babies died a few moments after you gave birth to them due to oxygen deficiency."

Caroline's heart sank in an instant.

"That's impossible! I clearly heard them cry. Impossible..."

"Miss Harper, the hospital already issued the death certificate. Please restrain your grief."

After saying this, the nurse left the ward. Caroline's heart was filled with complicated emotions. She pulled out the needle and got out of bed. But as soon as her feet touched the floor, she felt weak and sore all over, making her fall to the floor.

At this moment, the door of the ward was pushed open again. Then a woman in designer clothes came in.

"Long time no see, Caroline," Ximena said with a smile as she walked over to the bed unhurriedly.

"What are you doing here?"

Caroline asked, looking at Ximena disgustedly. She held on to the bedside and tried to stand up. But her body hurt so much that she felt she had no strength left.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk. Caroline, what do you plan to do after giving birth to Damian's children secretly? Are you going to use them to get the title of Mrs. Mayson? Oh, you must be very sad that they died too early."

Ximena stood near the bedside, looked at Caroline condescendingly, and smiled triumphantly.

"What are you doing here?" Caroline asked again. "You killed my children, right?" At this moment, she felt like she was on the verge of breaking down.

Her babies were fine when they were born. She heard their cries, and she saw them with her own eyes before she lost consciousness. How could they die?
