Chapter 8 Bankruptcy

• She bit her lips with a pale face. She held her abdomen and cried, "Baby, it is mommy's fault."
• She shouldn't have leave without money. She would have hated herself if the baby had something wrong.
• At this time, the clouds became darker, followed by pouring rain.
• She got wet. It was too cold to shiver.
• She was wandering alone on the street, surrounded by pedestrians passing by in a hurry, none of whom noticed her.
• Leslie was crying in the rain. She looked up at the boundless gray sky.
• God, why you torture me like this?
• A car passed by the road. The noise brought some of her consciousness back.
• She ran into the street to wave down help. A car was just a few centimeters away from hitting her.
• She went toward the driver's seat and tapped desperately on the window. But she was too weak. She was so afraid that no one would hear her.
• "Please save me. Save my baby."
• Leslie fondled her stomach, tears mixed with rainwater slid down her small face. She looks like a stray kitten.
• Her pale face was highlighting the severity of her illness.
• "Nonsense, I did nothing with you."
• Phoenix Steffen was being stared by his friends. He was trying to explain.
• But this time he cannot explain clearly. He could only get off the car and took the woman home.
• Phoenix helped Leslie up. He did not expect that this woman was so light.
• "No, I don't want to go to the hospital." Leslie grabbed his clothes and cried out.
• Her abdomen ached even more when she exerted herself. She could only put her hands on her abdomen and curled up like a shrimp.
• Phoenix saw her in this state. It seemed possible to take her to the hospital. So he took her to his house.
• Phoenix's house was nearby, a separate villa. He used to study medicine. So there had a lot of medicine at home to help the patient.
• Looking at Leslie, her condition was very unpromising.
• "Miss, you are a pregnant woman. Why you go outside alone?"
• "I'm just a homeless woman. My husband would catch me and take me to get an abortion." She frowned and said easily.
• Phoenix sighed as he remembered her fainting appearance from hunger.
• This woman looks so beautiful and lovely, but she lived such a miserable life. Phoenix made her a dinner and gave her a nutritional infusion.
• Before the infusion, Leslie said hurriedly, "I have a baby. Many medicines can't be used for me."
• Phoenix was reassured that the medicine had no side effects on pregnant women.
• "Where is the father of the baby? You're pregnant with starving. He did not take care of you but asking you to have an abortion. I have to teach that scum a good lesson!"
• Phoenix, after dropping the nutrient solution for her, opened his cell phone hastily to call the police.
• "I'm going to get help from the police now. It's unreasonable to abuse pregnant women.
• Regardless of the hanging needle, Leslie pulled Phoenix's hand. She said, "Please no, sir. I sneaked out on my own. Don't tell him, please."
• Phoenix stopped calling and said angrily, "You still want to protect that scum now, right?"
• Leslie sobbed and said helplessly, "I am begging you not to call the police. He will punish me. He never wanted this baby. I am the one who insist on having this baby."
• Phoenix finally stopped calling the police under her pleading.
• "If you get bullied again in the future, tell him that you are my friend."
• "Is that man also responsible for your current condition? I advise you to break up with that man."
• Leslie smiled bitterly. If she could break up with Christopher, she wouldn't be living such a miserable life.
• Everything was her own fault.
• Phoenix thought she was so poor. In order to ease her mood, he turned on the TV.
• He was about to change the channel. But Leslie hastily said not to change. 'Please wait. I want to watch this news."
• The woman reporter said with regret, "Unfortunately! The Ward's company, which has a history of twenty years, will declare bankrupt today. Ward's consortium announced a full acquisition of it. Terry Ward, Ward's CEO, is in a coma with cerebral hemorrhage. Currently he was sent to Mercy Hospital for emergency medical treatment."
• "No! How could the Ward Group go bankrupt? It was fine before I had left. Why does he not even spare my father! "
• Leslie suffered an intense psychological breakdown. She ripped the needle out of her hand and wanted to go to the hospital.
• Phoenix stopped Leslie, "How can you go out in a poor health? You don't want this baby? You rest tonight and I will take you to hospital tomorrow."
• Once Leslie thought of the baby', she had to agree his words.
