Hubby 217

Chapter 217 Kelly's Final Chance

"Wake up."

It was unknown how much time had passed.

Kelly stirred awake in a groggy haze.

Her face was deathly pale and her forehead burning with fever.

She resolved to gamble one last time.

Cecil frowned, pressing a hand to her forehead. "Why are you this feverish?"

"This woman is too fragile," the subordinate beside him muttered guiltily.

Cecil shot him an icy glare. "She's pregnant. Did you have to beat her to death?"

Kelly erupted into violent coughs, her face worsening as she weakly clutched Cecil's clothes. "My stomach... it hurts... please ..."

Kelly secretly bit her tongue, coughing more intensely, and then spat out blood.

"It might be a broken rib," a young girl stammered fearfully.

Cecil's expression darkened.

None of them had medical expertise. The organization led by Lucas had doctors before and Kelly's team was in charge of medical care for the first five years. Later, they captured a few foreign doctors. But now fleeing for their lives, they lacked even basic medical resources.

But if a rib was broken and pierced her lung, everyone knew Kelly wouldn't live long, especially since she was pregnant.

Kelly was gambling that Cecil couldn't afford letting her die.

Her growing belly made it harder to move, forcing her to come up with new escape plans.

She needed to go to a place with medical facilities, where she could somehow contact Gary.

If Gary learned she was still alive, he might try to find her.

There would be a chance of rescue.
