Chapter 86 Your Joy, My Sorrow
"Mr. Reid, I didn't mean to..."
Pauline quickly stepped back, apologizing.
Ryan smiled at her. "It's okay, it was an accident. If you think I took advantage of you, you can kiss me back."
"What?"
Pauline looked completely shocked.
Seeing her cute reaction, Ryan laughed again. "Just kidding. I'm outta here. Goodbye."
Only then did Pauline realize she'd been teased. Blushing, she waved. "Goodbye."
After watching him leave, Pauline closed the door, clutching her pounding chest and flushed cheeks.
She slapped herself lightly. "Pauline, remember your goal. Focus on your career; don't fall in love!"
Just now, she had the illusion of falling in love.
Yes, it was all an illusion. She rubbed her head, forbidding herself from overthinking.
Suddenly thinking of Ashley, Pauline couldn't help but worry.
"I wonder if Ashley's awake yet. And that idiot Sienna, after being taken away by her husband, I wonder if they had another fight."
Pauline yawned, exhausted from a sleepless night.
As soon as she hit the bed, she fell asleep.
Hospital.
Ashley was still unconscious on the hospital bed, her face pale and bloodless, like a broken doll.
Ethan napped with his arm serving as a pillow on the bed.
Ashley furrowed her brows and slowly opened her eyes, finding herself in the hospital.
Ethan, looking unwell, sat beside her with a frown, troubled by something unpleasant.
Ashley reached out to touch his furrowed brow.
Ethan immediately woke up at her touch.
Seeing Ashley awake, a gleam of joy flashed in Ethan's eyes. "Honey, you're awake?"
"Honey..."
Ashley's voice was extremely hoarse. "The baby..."
Ethan's eyes darkened with sadness. He gently stroked her hair and said, "The doctor said as long as you rest well and take care of your body... we can have another baby in the future..."
Even though she had anticipated the outcome, her heart couldn't help but ache.
She clutched her chest, biting her lower lip in pain, tears welling up in her eyes but refusing to fall.
Seeing her like this made Ethan feel even worse.
He held her, comforting, "Honey, I know you're sad. If you want to cry, just cry it out. Once you recover, we can try for another baby."
Ashley wrapped her arms around Ethan's neck, burying her face in his chest and sobbing, "Honey, I'm sorry, I failed to protect our baby..."
Their first child was suddenly gone; the more she thought about it, the more painful and unacceptable it became.
Ashley cried so hard she could barely breathe.
Ethan comforted her while wiping her tears.
"Honey, where's Chris? I want to settle the score with him!"
"Don't worry, he won't get away. Once I find the evidence, I'll send him to jail!"
When they mentioned Chris, their eyes were filled with intense hatred.
The surrounding air grew cold with tension.
Ethan said, "Honey, you must be hungry. I'll have someone bring you some food. You should lie down and rest for a while."
"Okay, Honey, you should rest too."
She knew he must have stayed up all night.
Ethan, looking exhausted, murmured in agreement. He got into bed and held Ashley as they lay down together.
However, neither of them could sleep, their eyes filled with sorrow...
The Yates family.
When Ivy learned about Ashley's miscarriage, she was so excited she almost clapped her hands.
"Are you serious? That bitch Ashley really had a miscarriage?"
The servant nodded affirmatively.
"Mr. Yates was afraid that the baby's clothes and shoes at home would upset Mrs. Yates, so he had us remove them all."
"That's great!"
Ivy laughed, "That woman has lost her baby. I can find a way to unite the Yates family and the White family... Go inform Mr. Yates to come home immediately."
