In the hospital room, Millie woke up to the devastating news that her baby was gone, her world crumbling around her.

This baby was her everything, her hope and bargaining chip. How could it just be gone?!

"Doctor, my baby has to still be here, right? You're just messing with me, right? This isn't funny at all. My baby is still alive!"

"...Ms. Millie, I know how hard it is to lose a child, but the fact is that your baby is gone. You're still young, you can..."

The doctor's voice faded, his mind wandering, before he abruptly stopped himself.

"Why is my baby gone? Did you all not do everything you could?! And why would you go through with this without my consent? Who gave you the right?!"

Anticipating this reaction, the doctor remained composed as he explained:

"When you were brought in, you were bleeding heavily, and your water had already broken. By the time you arrived, there was no fetal heartbeat. We had to perform the procedure immediately to save your life."

"We tried to contact your next of kin but couldn't reach anyone. After informing the hospital administration of the emergency, we received approval to proceed with the surgery."

"The entire procedure was supervised by hospital leadership and health department officials, and it was all recorded. If you have any doubts about our professionalism, you're welcome to request the surveillance footage. I'm sure the hospital will cooperate."

The hospital had protocols in place to handle such situations smoothly.

Millie was speechless.
