Forensic Imperial Concubine

"Lady Lilian, are you okay?"

"Call the imperial physician. My stomach is aching!" Lilian turned deathly pale because of the pain and it rendered Miguel terrified. Anyone who would see how Lilian looked like would surely take great pity on her and would try to protect her from any harm.

"Call the imperial physician! Quick!" Miguel once again ordered the servants.

When the imperial physician arrived, Lilian was already feeling delirious from the pain. Despite that, she forced herself up. "My baby! Physician, is my baby okay?" she asked faintly yet earnestly.

She didn't care about what she was feeling and what would happen to her—at that point, the only thing important to her was her baby. Her inquiry, however, was met with a grim stare from the imperial physician. It only meant one thing: it was very likely that she would lose her child if the situation continued.

"Say something. What happened to Lady Lilian?" Miguel angrily demanded as he grabbed the imperial physician by the collar.

This shook the imperial physician up so much that when he answered, his words were barely intelligible because of how much his voice trembled. "My Lord, Lady Lilian ate something that is very bad for her and the baby. Right now, there is a very high chance that she would suffer a miscarriage."

"Then why are you still doing nothing? Help her!"

"Well..." The imperial physician started, but it seemed like he could not find the right words to say. After a few moments, he took a deep breath and laid everything out. "I'm afraid it's too late. The baby in her belly was the first thing the substance hit. I've already felt her pulse, and I know I can't do anything about it. If Lady Lilian consents to have an abortion right at this moment, she will suffer less, because if the fetus dies in her womb, her life would be in danger, too!"
