Another Spring - Chapter 7

---- Chapter 7 I did not care about the slander Elise threw at me. All I felt was my injured hand from back then hurting. Everyone looked furious. "How can you let this homewrecker become a doctor? Who knows if she'll be jealous of us and take it out on us?" "Exactly! Homewreckers have bad intentions. They're malicious!" "We have to get the hospital to explain this to us!" I looked around. The memory of being bullied by Elise back then was still vivid in my mind. She shoved me, her eyes full of anger, as if she wanted to devour me alive.

1 could not help smirking and retorting, "You're the homewrecker! You don't remember how you ended up with Greyson?" Elise's expression froze for a moment as she stopped her actions. The intern from before quickly helped me up from the ground. I looked at Elise. "Who's the homewrecker here? Didn't you try every means to break up Greyson and me and then get together with him?" I took out the pen hanging on my chest and pressed the cap. Elise's voice rang out. "He used to like someone else.

To win his heart, I stirred up trouble between them, causing them to misunderstand each other and gradually drift apart. I hid the apology letter he asked me to pass on to that woman. I still keep it ---- as our token of love. That woman was pregnant at the time, and 1 used every means to get rid of her baby! Everything I got was through my hard work!" "You're spouting nonsense! The recording is fake!" Elise screamed and lunged at me, trying to snatch the pen. I dodged to the side, and she fell to the ground. "My stomach hurts so much!

My baby!" She clutched her stomach, drenched in cold sweat from the pain. The other doctors rushed out, lifted her onto a stretcher, and rushed her into the operating room. I stood there alone, feeling no concern for the patient. I felt only relief, thinking that Elise finally understood what it felt like to lose achild. When Elise woke up on the hospital bed, Greyson arrived. Seeing me, he asked anxiously, "Nicola, are you alright? I heard she came to bother you! Don't be mad at me!"" Elise's voice trembled. "Greyson! Our baby is gone! It's all her fault. She killed our baby!

Nicola, you'll get retribution for this!" My expression was icy. "Retribution? Aren't you suffering yours right now? I felt the same way when I lost my baby. Do you feel an emptiness, fear, and a terrible heartache? Or is the physical pain worse? That's how I felt! It was all because of you, and now, you're getting your just desserts!" Elise's expression grew increasingly grim with each word I uttered. Greyson grabbed my hand. "Nicola! Was that baby you were ---- pregnant with mine? Was it our baby?" I thought raising a child would be too expensive back then. I was already a burden.
