Second Chance At Love by Iris Mignon

Chapter 13

Despite her feelings of resignation toward death after enduring hurt and disappointment, Sophia’s maternal instincts stirred within her at the thought of the innocent life growing inside her. While she had contemplated death as a potential solution, she couldn’t ignore the tiny spark of hope for the unborn baby’s survival.

Sophia remained resolute in her decision to keep the baby, regardless of the circumstances. As she contemplated the possibility of her unborn child being a reincarnation of her deceased daughter, she couldn’t fathom the idea of terminating its life once again.

“You don’t have a say in this.” Jason’s voice was cold and relentless over the phone. “You have half an hour. If you don’t come to the hospital, don’t blame me for bringing the doctors to draw blood from you forcibly.” With that, he hung up, leaving Sophia stunned and overwhelmed by a surge of pain.

Clutching her chest, Sophia felt as if her heart was being squeezed. Her phone slipped from her trembling fingers, landing on the floor with a loud thud. It felt like it had landed on her heart, exacerbating the sense of suffocation engulfing her.

Gritting her teeth against the pain, she instinctively cradled her belly, finding solace in the connection to her child amid the turmoil of despair and agony.

Half an hour passed quickly, and Sophia heard a commotion outside. She thought Jason had arrived with the doctors to take blood from her, so she struggled to climb out of bed. “Everything will be fine. Sophia, don’t cry,” she tried calming herself.
