Eight Years Lost A Love Unclaimed (Ariella) novel Chapter 71

BOOK7 Chapter6

Maybe she was worried I wouldn’t believe her, or maybe she just wanted to

protect

1. me.

The nurse immediately pulled out her phone to prove it, playing the call where

she

tried to contact Lucas.

As soon as the call connected, I heard the woman’s tearful, pleading voice.

“Please don’t go, Mr. Evans. I’m so scared!”

Lucas soothed her with a few soft words before replying impatiently.

“Pregnant with my child? Ha, like it’s that easy to get pregnant with my baby! It’s

probably some bastard’s kid!”

“I knew it! You all must be in on this with that witch, trying to trick me into

coming

home! You’re all crazy!”

“An emergency? She’s not dead yet, is she? Call me when she’s dead, and I’ll come

to

take her straight to the crematorium!”

Each word felt like a knife stabbing into my heart, leaving me raw and bleeding.

In the past, I might have defended myself, dinging

some shred of dignity..

But now, I couldn’t keep lying to myself.

The nurse had never thought Lucas was a caring husband, especially after he

neglected me during my fertility treatments.

But every time, to cover up my sadness and maintain Lucas’s image, I would lie

and

say that my husband treated me well at home, that he was just too busy.

But now, Lucas’s actions were a slap in the face.

After Dr. Wright cleared his throat, the nurse realized she had crossed a line. She

quickly apologized.

“I’m sorry, Eva. I didn’t mean to…”

Then, with righteous anger, she continued, “But how could I not be mad? He’s

despicable! You’re lying here in the hospital, and he doesn’t even care!”

“Not only that, but I saw him with his mistress downstairs, getting her checked out

in

the OB/GYN department. He doesn’t care about you at all!”

I–staggered as I tried to get up, nearly fainting, but I grabbed her wrist and pleaded.

“Please, take me to see them.”

Her

eyes

filled with sympathy, but she helped me up.

Dr. Wright sighed heavily and cursed under his breath before walking away.

Soon, the nurse led me to the obstetrics department.

Just as we arrived, Lucas was helping Ava out of the exam room. I quickly ducked

into

the hallway with the nurse.

Seeing me hide, she was furious and whispered angrily.

“Eva, are you just going to let those two get away with this?”

“Should I go out there and smack them both?”

I quickly took out my phone, snapping photos while holding her trembling wrist,

calmly replying.

“Isn’t this the best evidence of his affair?”

“Don’t hit them. If they run, how will I get the photos?”

The nurse held back her anger for a moment before giving me a thumbs–up.

“Now I see why you’re the smart one! This is a brilliant move!”

I snapped photo after photo, and then the nurse walked out.

She tightened her mask and pretended to call out to Lucas.

“Are you the patient’s husband? You need to go pay the bill at the front.”
