Dangerous Desire The CEO’s Hidden Woman

“She is having the baby tonight, and it’s very dangerous. We should take her to the hospital.” Eve said sharply.

“Doctors and nurses are waiting in the backyard. And the medical equipment is much better than anything they have at the hospital here. So, please calm down and trust me. Everything is under control.” Ella explained calmly.

Two tough and tall bodyguards used a stretcher to carry Scarlett toward the backyard. They had been here over a month, but they had never come to the backyard, so they also didn’t notice that there was a little door leading into the little backyard.

Scarlett was in too much pain to even breathe, so she grabbed Eve’s hand very tightly. She knew she was hurting her, but she was in far too much pain to care at that moment.

“Why does it hurt so much?” She gasped.

She was taken into a room that resembled a maternity ward, and the doctors and nurses were ready to take action. All the equipment was ready and new, and the attending doctor was an experienced foreigner. She had come all the way to this village just to make sure that Scarlett delivered her baby safely.

She kept telling Scarlett what she should do, how to breathe, and how to push. But giving birth to the baby was too painful, and Scarlett could barely concentrate on her instructions.

***

Because of the pain, Scarlett was delirious. In a trance, she seemed to go back to the time when she was little. Back to the alley where they used to live. Back to her and Skyler’s childhood.

That had been the happiest time in her life because her mother had still been with them. She remembered how they used to read books near the window, sitting back to back and laughing. They were happy. They were like free birds then. The sky was blue, and the sunshine was so warm. The air had been full of the scent of freshly cut grass. Everything had been so wonderful…

Scarlett was trapped in memories, and then suddenly, everything went blank and became obscure. She felt like she was going to faint. And then she murmured, “Mum…”

Right then, a door opened, and a tall figure walked in. It was Francis.

Eve waited outside, leaning against the wall, and then looked back carefully at the figure walking toward her.

“Wow, you are so quick.” Eve stared at him in disbelief.

It was bitter cold outside. Certainly, his coming here was not because he knew Scarlett was already having his baby. Rather, he had already made up his mind to come to see her after he got her call. He had gotten caught up in traffic, and that was why he had arrived so late.

Having greeted Eve with a nod, Francis took off his coat, pushed the door open, and walked in.

Meanwhile, the doctor was stumped because Scarlett was refusing to cooperate with her. If things did not improve, she would be left with no choice but to perform a Caesarean section.

Scarlett’s fingers were quivering, and she seemed to be trapped in the dream.

Francis took her hand with his, but Scarlett jerked her hand back.

“Babe, I’m here, wake up!” Francis said.

In a trance, Scarlett seemed to see a bright moon high in the sky, and she tried to open her eyes to overcome the pain, but the light was so dazzling that she couldn’t.

“Babe, come on, our baby is coming, so please come on!” He was worried.

However, her whole body kept quivering as if she were having a terrible seizure.

A while later, Scarlett recovered slightly. When the doctor saw that Scarlett was returning to normal, she told everyone to get moving. Someone took the shot, and someone comforted her by asking her to follow the doctor’s orders.

“Relax, babe, just listen to the doctor, okay? I’m right here, babe. I’m right here with you, babe.” Francis encouraged her as he stood up and gave her a gentle kiss on her forehead.

Scarlett grabbed his hand tightly. She was sweating profusely. Despite the intense pain she was in, she did her best to push.

However, no progress had been made. Instead, Scarlett just curled up, and the pain was almost killing her.

“You, get out! I don’t want you to see me like this! Get the fuck out!” Scarlett gritted her teeth as she pushed him away.

Watching Scarlett’s suffering was difficult for Francis. He was about to cry and patted Scarlett to help her relax the muscles on her face and said, “Please let me stay with you, okay? I want to be with you now! Babe, please. Just let me be here to support you. And don’t bite yourself.”

Francis felt useless because he couldn’t do anything to ease the pain of the women he loved most in the world.

“You, get out…” Scarlett said again.

Her reaction was too strong, so the doctor advised Francis to cooperate and do as she was saying.

Although Francis looked very calm, he was very sad. He still thought that Scarlett was so mad at him that she didn’t want him to be with her at such a crucial moment. But for the sake of her and the baby, he just took the advice of the doctor and left sadly.

As Francis left, Scarlett sighed. And her look was caught by the doctor, so she asked smilingly, “Mrs, Sandler, are you feeling embarrassed?”

Scarlett nodded her head in agreement, and then suddenly, she realized that the doctor misunderstood the relationship between her and Francis, so she explained,

“I’m not his wife!”

“But that’s not what Mr. Sandler told me when he invited me to come here. He told me you are his wife…” The doctor laughed.NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.

“Well, he hasn’t made the proposal to me yet, so we still don’t know what will happen next…” She blinked hard.

The doctor laughed.

“Okay, follow my instructions. Breathe in, breathe out. Deep breaths. Come on, let’s go.”

Scarlett took a deep breath and then used up the greatest strength of her life to breathe out and push the baby out.

“Good, go on! Keep going, Scarlett. You’ve got this. You’re doing great.” The doctor encouraged her excitedly.
