Chapter 5 Please Keep Our Child

• Alex Hargreaves' kisses came with the intoxicating scent of cigarettes that made Madeline Russel's mind go blank. He tenderly but passionately took on her soft lips and explored her deepest thoughts, her most vulnerable feelings.
• This tension and seduction, she has only experienced the first time they met.
• When Madeline Russel was sixteen, she was bullied by Emily Russel's friends. They ripped off her clothes in front of everybody on the street and poured juice down her head.
• At that time, Maddy felt as if she could no longer bear the pain and humiliation. She broke down in tears and exposed her weakness to her bullies. That was when Alex Hargreaves showed up, and he was Emily's boyfriend at the time. He was wearing a high-class garment, the murmurs went silent in his presence.
• Emily hurriedly explained to Alex "Sorry that you have to see this. My sister has a bad habit of showing herself in public. No matter how many times I scold her, and she wouldn't stop."
• Alex looked at the pieces of Maddy's shirt on the floor. His eyes were cold as ice, but he took off his jacket and covered it around Maddy. His fingertips touched her shoulders. They looked deeply into each other's eyes.
• With just one look, they were drunk on each other for life.
• The loud sound of filthy laughter woke Madeline Russel from her dream.
• "Bartender, more wine for the table. I want to try your sweet lips as well."
• "Her legs are shaking in excitement, hahaha."
• Maddy's hands wrapped around Alex's neck. Her voice was welcoming "Alex... stop... uhmm."
• Tears filled her eyes, the warmth of her slender body introduced Alex to make the next move. Alex Hargreaves can no longer control his desire.
• His hand caresses her private part as she let out a small moan.
• "There are people around us... Alex... Don't."
• "So, what if people are watching?" Alex imagined the scene of other men touching her that made his mind goes crazy. His behavior became more aggressive.
• Maddy helplessly escaped from Alex's hand. People surrounding them thought she is inviting him to do more.
• "She is really good at seducing men, huh?" one guy whistled.
• "Hey Alex, give her to me once you are bored." Another man joked.
• "I bet she can serve multiple guys at a time, hahaha."
• Those words remind Alex of Maddy's low position. She is just a mere server, then Alex slipped his fingers between her legs.
• His deep kisses drowned her weep, and her body is aching in pain.
• Maddy's eyes were reddened by tears. She wrapped her hands around his neck to tell him to stop, unknowingly pushing her chest closer to him.
• Alex turned into a real beast. His recognition is no longer with him.
• Maddy felt wind down her spine, a weird sustained leak from her legs.
• "Please, let me go."
• "A prostitute has no right to beg." Alex pushed himself into her furthermore.
• Maddy fainted as her body becomes paralyzed.
• Alex came back to his senses after a few seconds.
• "Alex, she is bleeding."
• "She... she fainted."
• Everyone is in shock, he looked at the stream of blood that came out of Madeline.
• Only then does Alex lift her and run out of the bar.
• "Hurry up. Do you even know how to drive?" Alex lost his temper and yelled at his driver.
• The Lamborghini ran like the wind on the road.
• Looking at the blood running down her legs, Alex felt a sense of dread. He took off his shirt to cover them, his hands held her tiny frame tight.
• Upon arriving at the hospital, Alex carried Maddy into the Emergency Room.
• But after she woke up, instead of joy, his blood boiled from anger.
• Madeline is sitting on the hospital bed, holding hands with a strange man.
• All the worries in Alex turned into wrath. He slapped Madeline.
• "You whore!"
• "She just woke up; you cannot harm a patient." John Elliott snatched Alex's hand.
• "Let go of me, bastard!" Alex punched John in the face. Nobody has ever had the gut to command him to do anything like this before.
• Maddy ran up into Alex, she tried to hold him back. "What are you even mad about? You aren't allowed to hit other people."
• Maddy accidentally crashed her infusion bottle handle. It hits her back. The needle on her hand slanted, her blood runs back into the drip.
• "This is a hospital, take your problems outside," John yelled.
• Ignoring him, Alex grabs Maddy's shoulders. "Being a prostitute serving men must not be enough for you, that's why now you're here hugging other men, right?"
• Holding hands is hugging? She shook her head. "You misunderstood. This is the doctor who just saved my child..."
• Stopping mid-sentence, she changed the subject "You can let go of me now, you're hurting me."
• Alex cannot take her words to be accurate, he then asks the man in the lab coat.
• "Why was she bleeding?" John Elliott glanced at Madeline's scared-to-death face and said "This is her second fetal derangement, but the baby is fine now. Her body is just too weak to handle doing intimate activities right now. If this goes on, the baby would die. I hope you could take better care of yourself and your child."
• Doctor Elliott left the room right after that. He has many things to employ.
• As the door closed the door, Madeline begged at Alex "Please, save our child..."
• "Abort it!" he threw her some unkind words. Alex's face became red with anger. His face stiffened, the pressure around him made Maddy curl in fear.
• She reached for his hands but gets rejected. Tears were falling down her face. "Please don't make me abort this baby. We are divorced, this is my baby alone, and you have no right in this."
• Alex grabs her by the neck, he grinned an evil smile. "No right? Even when we are not married, your body, everything, is still in my control."
• One handheld Maddy's neck, his other hand reached for his phone to call his most trusted secretary, "Andrew, organize an operation at hospital K this evening."
• Alex drops Maddy on the floor. He looked at his arm filled with her scratches.
• Maddy lied flat on the floor to beg him and cried her eyes out.
• "Alex, please, I beg you. Don't kill my baby. I have no one another person aside from this baby. Please don't make me..."
• "Haven't you given up yet? Your filthy begging is too persistent." Alex stood tall with pride. He looked down on the little creature- Maddy.
• "You tricked me to sleep with you, and now you're going to use that baby to push Emily away from me again right?"
• Madeline shook her head until her hair becomes tangled, her bloody hands hugged Alex's leg.
• "No, I would never. Let me keep this baby, I would leave this place forever, you would never see me ever again."
• Alex kicked her aside. He looked at her as if he was looking at garbage.
• Maddy banged her head on the floor.
• "Alex, please, please, anything, just don't kill my baby."
• She banged her head until it bleeds. Blood and tears make her face seem uglier than before. Alex does not react. He just left the room without any words.
• "If you want to die, wait until after the abortion."
• Madeline laid on the floor, crying. She is petrified and she cannot stop holding her belly.
• Two nurses came in through the door, their faces as cold as ice.
• "Miss Russel, we need to run some tests for the operation this evening. Please follow us."
• "No, I'm not going anywhere." Madeline stepped back in fear. Her foot was wounded by the hospital bed, she let out a loud cry.
• The nurses looked at her with emotionless faces.
• Her cry gets smaller gradually. Now, Madeline is determined "What do I need to do?"
• "We need to test your blood and run an x-ray test."
• Maddy wiped tears off her face. She spoke tenderly, "My body has no strength left, can you please carry me?"
• The nurses involuntarily carried her. Madeline lifted her hand from the floor, grabbed the handle with the infusion bottle, and hit it on the nurses' head.
• Madeline uses all her strength to run out of there, leaving the nurses' groan behind.
• She has no idea where she's heading. She turned left and right. People chased after her from behind. Maddy opens the office door in an empty hallway.
• John Elliott is sitting in there. His face twitched after seeing the uninvited guest.
• Madeline has no time to explain. She immediately looked for a place to hide in the office.
• In John's annoyed gaze, Maddy hides under the table, she was seated between his legs.
• "Please save me and my baby." She said as her voice became soft.
