Chapter 1

“Ms. Guzman, I hate to break it to you, but you have an ectopic pregnancy. You gotta have surgery to have it removed immediately,” a doctor said.

Madison Guzman’s face blanched at his words. She had actually seen it coming yet still hoped for the best.

The diagnosis undoubtedly shattered her last hope.

She was overwhelmed by the intense pain.

After some contemplation, Madison sent a message to her so–called husband, Neville Preston, trying to sound him out. [How about we get a child?]

Neville replied: [In your dreams.]

Madison smiled bitterly with red eyes. ‘Even if I had a healthy pregnancy, Neville would not let me keep the child, she thought.

“Do it now.”

“I’m sorry to tell you that we’ll have to remove your fallopian tube.” the doctor uttered.

Madison’s head buzzed and she couldn’t hear the rest of the doctor’s words.

She knew better than anyone that removing the fallopian tube meant it would be difficult for her to conceive in the future. It was equal to depriving her of the qualification to be a mother. This result was a devastating blow to her.

Suppressing the pain in her heart, Madison sent another message to Neville. [What if I can’t have children in the future?]

Neville, as cold as ever, replied: [Go see a doctor for your delusion, and get out of my hair.]

Madison felt heartbroken. She almost forgot that, for Neville, she was nothing more than a notch on his bedpost. He wouldn’t care if she could have children as long as she could satisfy him in bed..

She gripped the pen, her fingers trembling as she signed her name heavily on the surgical consent form.

Before entering the operating room, the doctor asked, “Do you want to inform any family members?”
