Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 43

Chapter 43 Mrs. Dalton Was In Danger Of Losing Her Life.

Peyton looked at the door that seemed like it would never be opened, and the light in her eyes faded little by little.

No matter how many times, the outcome remains the same.

Was it a child last time, and is it her this time?

Peyton still remembered how, half an hour after her surgery, he finally

arrived late from Helena’s ward. Faced with the fact that she had already lost her child, her heart shattered, and she hesitantly asked, “Why did you save her?”

“You could swim.”

When she heard this answer, her restrained tears slowly fell.

At that time, she was six months pregnant and her feet were bound by the fishing net underwater. She was just a pregnant woman, not a

superwoman.

This time, he once again thought that her body was the same as before. Even if she got soaked in cold water, she would at most catch a cold. He didn’t know that even a minor cold might take away the life of a patient after chemotherapy.

He thought he could control the world, but this time he would pay the price for his arrogance.

Apart from Kason, who remained unconscious, she had no attachment. to this world anymore.

She seemed like

only able to bow her head and wait silently for the judgment of death.

I don’t know how long had passed when the door was finally opened. She weakly lifted her head and her gaze fell upon the tall and slender. man standing by the door.

Peyton struggled to hold on to her last breath as she watched him approach her and stand in front of her. He asked, “Peytie, do you know you were wrong?”

Wrong?

What was her mistake?

At this moment, Peyton wanted to laugh, their stomach had long been numb with pain, their hands were stiff and motionless, and even their body was so cold that they couldn’t feel anything.

What else could she say? It was all her doing.

Peyton’s lips parted with difficulty, “Nolan, I was wrong.”

He laughed in the darkness.

Nolan quickly released her restraints, accompanied by Peyton’s weakly drooping body and the chilling words.

“My biggest mistake was meeting you.

Lucian turned on the light. At the moment the light illuminated Peyton, Nolan saw a bloody mess on her wrist.

She hurt herself to such an extent in order to break free from the belt. In the past, even a small prick from a needle would make her scream for half a day.

He lifted Peyton’s body, her face pale and lifeless, her black hair pressed against her cheeks, she looked like a porcelain doll.

Nolan’s heart started to race. How could this be?

In the past, her physical condition was so good that she could go. winter swimming. How could she become so weak just because of getting a little cold water?

“Peyton, stop pretending.‘

Looking at the person who looked like a corpse, he reached out and touched her cheek, but there was no warmth.

Nolan’s hands, which were holding onto her body, were trembling. “Call the doctor!”

Lucian was also frightened and quickly dialed the private doctor’s phone number.

Nolan panicked. He thought he knew enough about the human body. It had only been half an hour, it should have just been a lesson for her, how could it turn out like this?

He busily took off Peyton’s clothes and started to administer first aid.

Fortunately, although her breath was weak, at least there was still a breath. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

It was his once most familiar body, but he still saw the sear on Peyton’s abdomen for the first time.

Actually, he knew that she was allergic to anesthesia, so during the surgery, they had to perform a cesarean section. He heard her heart- wrenching screams from outside the operating room, and he was well aware of how many layers and stitches were used to close her wound.

In addition to the wound on her abdomen, there was a new wound on the inside of her left arm. Nolan suddenly remembered the day when Helena caused trouble and Peyton went to the hospital.

Nolan thought she had at most just scraped her skin, but he didn’t expect it to be such a long scar.

How did someone afraid of pain manage to stay silent? She casually brushed off this matter.

Nolan pursed his thin lips. As he thought about the words he said to Peyton before she fell into a coma, his heart seemed to be bleeding.

Nolan changed her into soft pajamas, raised the room temperature, and held her tightly in his arms.

Lucian quickly entered with his personal doctor, Timothy Abbott. Upon seeing this scene, their initial reaction was to avoid it.

“Roll back and see what happened to her?”

“Yes, Mr. Dalton.”

Timothy was Nolan’s personal doctor. Peyton was rarely sick and had no good health. Every time she saw him, she either had a bruised hand or a sprained foot.

At that time, he used to joke that the little girl was quite energetic.

He hadn’t seen her for two years. Now, the lively young girl he used to talk about is lying there weak and pale.

Timothy made a simple diagnosis, “Mr. Dalton, based on my preliminary assessment, Mrs. Dalton fainted due to excessive

weakness. She just caught a chill, so it is important to keep warm and prevent fever. The wound on her hand did not affect the bones, but it should be taken care of cautiously.”

“Weak? Although she was a bit weak recently, it was just a common cold. She should have been fine a long time ago.”

“Yeah, Mrs. Dalton’s heart rate and pulse indicated that she was not as healthy as an average person, and she also had some symptoms of gastric heat. Of course, when it comes to traditional medicine, I am not as proficient as my master. Mr. Dalton should find time to take Mrs. Dalton to the hospital for a thorough examination.”

After Timothy finished speaking, he took out the blood–drawing needle and said, “I will first draw blood from Mrs. Dalton and send it for testing to determine whether it is a bacterial infection or a viral

infection, and then prescribe the appropriate medication.”

“Um.”

Peyton had a diflicult night. She had a very long dream, in which she saw a young boy wearing a white shirt for the first time on the playground, and she fell in love with him at first sight.

When they met again, he saved her from drowning. She still remembered how elated and joyful she was at that time. In a panic, she clung to his neck, feeling his strong body, blushing shyly.

And then, they finally fell in love and decided to be together. He adored her very much.

If the dream ended abruptly here, it would be better, so she wouldn’t have to repeatedly experience those pains over and over again.

Nolan saw her furrowed brow and heard her muttering incessantly, “My child, Nolan, give me back my child!”

“Nolan, I gave my life to you.”

“Nolan, you let me go.”

“Nolan…”

Every sentence is about him, but every sentence is filled with hatred toward him.

Nolan grabbed her hand and whispered, “Peytie, I let you go. Who will let me go?”

He was afraid that if he let her go, even the last thread of connection would be completely severed.

The little hand in his palm was extremely hot, as Timothy had expected, she indeed had a fever.

Nolan brought a fever patch and stuck it on her forehead, then took out fever medicine to prepare for her to take.

Lucian rushed in without even knocking on the door, “Mr. Dalton, the blood test results for Mrs. Dalton are out. Her various indicators are significantly lower than normal, especially her red and white blood cell counts, which are even below the minimum values. Dr. Abbott said that Mrs. Dalton must not develop a fever. Her white blood cell count is only 2.3, and there is a life–threatening risk if she gets a fever! She must be given a white blood cell booster shot as soon as possible.”

“What did you say?” All the fever–reducing medicine in Nolan’s hand fell to the ground.
