My Sweetheart

Kathy and Alexia arrived at the hospital room; Sue was awake already, but Lincoln didn’t enter.

Looking at the feeble woman on the hospital bed, Kathy recalled how, just a while ago, they were still happily expecting to greet a new baby. No one foresaw that the baby was gone before they knew it.

“Sue, the doctor said that you probably had abortion pills.” Alexia hesitantly said.

Sue’s face turned pale white; she pressed her hand against her stomach and remained silent.

How could she be so cruel to have taken her own child’s life.

Unless… it was something she ate in her daily meals.

“Far too many people want my child dead.” Sue said solemnly as she shut her eyes.

What she didn’t say was how frightened she became ever since she was pregnant with her child.

The Fletcher family’s old man had many devious methods, and had tried to take her child’s life innumerous times already.

Sue was surprised she was even able to remain pregnant for four months.

“Sue…” Kathy whispered, but then fell silent for a while.

On the surface, Lincoln and Sue looked like quite a lovely couple; even the Fletcher family seemed to have accepted them. But in reality, things may not be this way.

At this moment, footsteps sounded from outside the room; it was Lincoln, and both Kathy and Alexia left the room to give them a private moment.

Sue kept looking down, her eyes were filled with a look of gloom.

Then her eyes turned red, but she bit her lip and held in her tears.

“Sue, sorry…” Lincoln said, then he knelt down next to her bed.

He held her small hand tightly; she could clearly feel his anguish and pain.

“Lincoln, is this our fate?" Sue suddenly asked with a smile.

But as her smile widened, tears began to roll down her face.

Lincoln rushed over to gently kiss away the tears off her face.

However, Sue began to cry out even more uncontrollably; she held Lincoln tightly and said, “I want to get revenge for my child.”
