My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 104

They watched as Albert left them behind and drove away.

While Fiona was in disbelief, she felt her vision go dark. She quickly chased after him and shouted, "Honey... Albert!"

Unfortunately, the car ran further and further away. Soon, even the taillights could not be seen.

Fiona stomped her foot in anger and heard Eliza crying bitterly again. "Mom, save me... It hurts, it hurts."

Eliza could barely stand. She clutched her stomach and swayed. Tears and cold sweat flowed down her face.

Fiona quickly went over to support her. She freed one hand to hold her phone and said in a panic, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I'll call someone to pick us up now. I..."

For a moment, she couldn't think of whom to look for.

Eliza said shakily, "Dominic, call Dominic..."

She was in so much pain that she could barely speak. She grabbed Fiona's arm with one hand.

Fiona nodded frantically. She found Dominic's number and dialed it, but it only rang once before it was hung up.

She called him again with Eliza's phone, but the call was still hung up.

Eliza was in so much pain that she was about to faint.

Fiona had no choice but to call an ambulance.

At Riverdale Women's and Children's Hospital.

Eliza had already been pushed in for a checkup. Fiona paced anxiously back and forth outside the corridor.

After some unknown time, the examination room's door opened, and a female doctor in her forties walked out.

She asked, "Are you the patient's family?"

Fiona went to her and asked anxiously and worriedly, "Yes, yes, doctor. How are my daughter and her child?"

"Your daughter is fine. She's just exhausted. She'll be fine after some rest. As for her child..."

The doctor paused for a moment, looking troubled.

Fiona's heart tightened. "What happened to the child?"

'Did we fail to keep it?' she wondered.

The doctor didn't say anything explicitly. Instead, she asked, "Where's your daughter's husband? You might have to discuss this with him."

Fiona's face tensed up when she thought of the two phone calls that Dominic had hung up. She said firmly, "He's busy. You can tell me if there's anything. I can decide."

Hearing her say this, the doctor did not insist and said truthfully, "The results of the examination show that the fetus in your daughter's womb is at high risk of having trisomy 21 syndrome, which is commonly known as Down syndrome. The hospital's suggestion is to terminate the pregnancy."

Fiona's pupils constricted and she staggered. She held onto the wall and barely stabilized herself.

The doctor held her arm and sighed. She patted Fiona's shoulder and comforted her. "Your daughter is still young. There's no need to take the risk of giving birth to a child who might be born stupid. Think about it carefully."

Fiona nodded blankly. Her eyes were empty.

After the doctor left, she sat on the metal chair in the hospital corridor for a long time until the nurse said that Eliza was awake. Then she entered the ward.
