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 abd

Brendan gnashed his teeth as he felt wave after wave of dizziness, leaving his internal organs riddled with blood and throes.Glenna retaliated with a smile. “That’s right. You should be suffering more than her. This is the price you need to pay for hurting her.”-Tobey might have paid a great price, but Deirdre finally managed to rest in a room.There was a woman, the wife of a crew member, who was responsible as a chef for taking care of the crew’s meals. When she learned Deirdre was pregnant and bleeding, she purposely came and knocked on Deirdre’s door.Because Deirdre couldn’t see, the woman helped Deirdre to change, put a sanitary pad on her lingerie, and took out her bloody clothes to wash them.Deirdre truly appreciated the woman’s help, but the woman replied, “It’s not a big deal at all. I’m just doing what I can. When I was pregnant, I didn't suffer as much as you are. I didn’t have to board a cargo ship, traveling in the cold wind.”She sat near Deirdre and asked cur

“What do you mean by impossible?” Brendan’s handsome face was indifferent. The corners of his lips curled up into a mocking smile when he said, “You’ve underestimated her too much. What can't she do to stay away from me? Let alone to board a cargo ship, even if she was asked to dive into the water, she would never hesitate…”His eyelids were so heavy again that he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Following that, he asked soberly, "Where are those ships going?"Sam belatedly realized that Brendan was asking him a question and replied, “It’s not clear because those ships can go anywhere with the waterway extended toward all directions. Special cargo ships are heading for almost all reachable cities.”Brendan didn’t say anything else. He merely bent to pour himself a glass of wine and continued pouring it down his throat.Sam felt heartache and advised, “Mr. Brighthall, stop drinking. You got well not long ago. What if your health relapses?”With a sardonic smile, Brendan pour

“Well, there’s nothing to cry about. We’re just hiding temporarily, not forever. When Brendan gives up, I’ve enough experience to work in a big company. This job that I found pays daily, and it’s an opportunity for me to gain experience. Hence, I think it’s quite good.”Although Tobey said it was quite good, Deirdre didn’t think so. She knew how tough it was to work at a construction site. She thought the job might be suitable only for a middle-aged man without a degree who had never enjoyed a good life.However, Tobey was still young. He used to be a manager with an annual salary of more than 100,000 dollars in a national company, yet he had to lower his status to work under someone else.She thought it was ridiculous.However, she had no right to say no because Tobey was the one who had to support their daily lives.Swallowing back her tears, she washed the apples in the bag. When she handed Tobey one, he said, “Don’t pressure yourself, Deirdre. In fact, I do enjoy my current li

“Oh, I see,” said Madame Russell while wiping her tears. “Previously, Tobey told me that he just wanted to meet Deirdre, but why did he disappear along with her? What’s happening actually?”While looking at the panic-stricken Madame Russell, a ray of hope grew within Brendan’s heart.He was glad that God had given him a chance, and he became clearer about Deirdre’s character.She was indeed cruel, but she couldn’t ignore Madame Russell and the people around her.Provided Madame Russell was with him, he would not be afraid that Deirdre would run further away.“Well, it’s a long story. I had a conflict with Deirdre.”“What?”No one knew whether Brendan was sincere or acting when he looked haggard with compassion in his eyes. “She’s pregnant, and perhaps that’s the reason she was emotional. She wanted to go out, but I was worried about her health and stopped her. Perhaps it was for this reason that Mr. Russell thought that I was controlling her freedom and took her to escape privat
