You Are The Pursuit of My Life novel Chapter 152

When Nathan finished his business and was about to go home, the phone rang. It was the manager of one of his factories. He told Nathan on the phone, "There was an accident in the factory. Mr. White, please head there right away!"

Astonished, Nathan immediately leapt to his feet and rushed to the factory. Along the way, his anxiety compelled him to keep urging his driver to speed up. When passing by a quiet road, the driver suddenly exclaimed.

"Sir, look."

An emergency brake followed after the exclamation. Nathan fixed his eyes in the direction the driver was pointing and was shocked at what he saw. On the road less than two meters away from their car lay a woman covered in blood. "Let's go down and have a look!" Nathan was first to open the door when he realized what had happened.

"It seems that she's not breathing." The driver carefully turned over the injured woman's head and tried checking for any sign of breathing with his finger. When he touched the injured woman's face, Nathan was dumbstruck. "It's her?"

"Do you know her?" asked the driver.

"Yes! Her body is still warm. Let's send her to the hospital first and see how she turns out!" Nathan ordered.

Not minding the bloodstains on Rowane's body, Nathan moved her into the car together with the driver. The driver started the car and drove to a nearby hospital. As soon as they had reached, the doctor rushed to push Rowane into the operating room. Nathan glanced at his watch and instructed the driver to wait in the hospital while he drove to the factory.

Along the way, he had been feeling very uneasy. He did know Rowane, but he had met her only once.

A few years ago, he had travelled to San Fetillo to attend a meeting. That day, he had been in a hurry but he was caught in a traffic jam. He'd arrived late at the meeting point. As soon as he'd dashed out of the staff elevator, he saw a person standing outside. He'd knocked onto that person, resulting in the latter to stumble to the ground.

Stupefied, he'd stopped in his tracks. He'd found out that the person he'd bumped into was a woman. Nathan quickly went forward to help her, but he was amazed when he saw her face clearly, for it was a beautiful one. The most important thing was not that she was beautiful, but that she looked somewhat similar to Irene. He didn't know that she was Rowane.

And at this moment, Rowane, who was on the ground, began to cry in pain. Nathan was a little embarrassed. "Where are you feeling hurt? Should I take you to the hospital to check on it?"

The staff member next to him hurriedly reminded him, "Mr. White, it's getting late. They're all waiting for you. Leave this girl to me!" Once reminded, Nathan remembered why he came here. After a moment of hesitation, he handed the matter over to the staff.

Later, after the meeting, he had inquired about the incident. The accompanying staff member told him that Rowane ended up not going to the hospital, saying that she was fine and insisted on leaving.

Since then, Nathan had thrown the incident to the back of his mind. But what he didn't expect was that he would meet her again in Mencodia and of course, not in such a serious state.

While he was recalling the past, he found himself already at the factory gate. He got out of the car and hurried into the factory.

After Nathan dealt with the factory issues, he went to the hospital to visit Rowane. She had been sent to the intensive care unit right after the operation. The doctor claimed that she was not in danger for the time being. Nathan ordered the driver to take care of her in the hospital, and he went home.

It was already midnight when he got home. He was used to going to Eden's room to check on him. When he pushed open the door, he saw Edric embracing Eden on his bed. Seeing that Eden snuggled up in Edric's arms sleeping soundly, Nathan couldn't help but feel touched.

Edric's love for Irene was genuine. Nathan could tell that if it was not for Margaret, he and Irene would certainly be living a happier life!

Nathan gently closed the door and exited before he heard light footsteps coming from behind. It was Irene; she came when she had heard the noise. "You're back? I'll prepare some midnight snacks for you."

Nathan stopped her, "Go and have some rest. I'll ask the servants to make them for me. You're pregnant now, so you should have a good rest."

"I know. Don't worry. I'm not that fragile!" The two of them went downstairs gently.

Edric also woke up by the noise outside the door. He carefully let go of Eden in his arms, got up and walked out of the room. When he saw Irene going to the kitchen to prepare a midnight snack for Nathan, he felt extremely distressed. Back in the days, when he had come back late from work, Irene would also prepare dinner for him.

His heart stung. He turned back to Eden's room in a heavy mood. Looking at Eden who was sleeping like a log on the bed, the melancholy in his heart slowly disappeared. As long as Eden was there with him, all would be well.

He couldn't help but lower his head and kiss Eden's face again. "My son, you must stand on my side. Only when you stand on my side can your mother have a change of heart. I beg of you!"

Back in San Fetillo, after night fell, Marie and Lily stealthily came to the hospital. The hospital was very quiet at this time as there were not too many staff members on duty. When they went to the operating room, Marie ran into a nurse on call. "Dr. Walker, what are you doing here?"

Marie silently cursed the nurse in her own heart. Why would she bump into her? The purpose of choosing to perform the operation at night was to prevent others from gleaning the truth. Although she was rather irked, she still wore a smile on her face. "I forgot something in the hospital. I'm here to retrieve it."

The nurse believed Marie and politely said goodbye to her. Marie quickly opened the door of the operating room and entered. A few minutes later, Lily came to the operating room, accompanied by Deborah. "Did you meet anyone on the way?"

"No," Deborah replied.

Marie was relieved. She then told Lily to lie down on the operating table. They had been preparing for this day for a long time. Lily had already been taking ovulating medication two months ago; surely this time the operation would go smoothly. Marie first began to induce Lily's ova, and then she proceeded to extract them. The operation was plain sailing; as soon as the ovum was collected, it was placed in the culture fluid.

Several hours later, Lily's ovum was put into the dish together with Edric's sperm. Marie told Lily that she could have the fertilized ovum implanted in her womb in three to five days. At the moment, she should go home first to wait for further news.
