Task NO 1 How To Pursue Miss CEO Chapter 810-“Stop moving.” “My baby…” Selena reached out and grabbed the nurse by the arm. “Nurse, where’s my baby?”
“Your baby is still there, don’t worry.” The nurse’s firm tone was reassuring as her firm tone placated Selena. Then, she added, “However, there was some bleeding. The doctor has placed you on fluids and progesterone, so you’ll have to be on bedrest for now and follow everything that the doctor tells you to in order to prevent a miscarriage.”
Upon hearing that, Selena felt her heart twist in panic. “Will the baby be alright? I must have overexerted myself since I’ve lost quite a bit of blood.”
It was not the first time that she was pregnant. She knew that bleeding during the early stages of pregnancy could indicate something serious—like a miscarriage.
“You have to trust that the doctor will do everything he can to help you keep this baby, but you must keep your spirits up as well. Most of the time, bleeding during pregnancy isn’t a serious issue. I’ve seen patients who have had signs of bleeding and were put on bedrest throughout their entire pregnancy, but they’ve managed to carry their babies to full term at the end. Our biggest concern now is that your emotions are not stable, which is not good for you or the baby.”
It was only after hearing the nurse’s words of solace that Selena slowly sighed in relief. “You’ll need to keep your spirits up and eat your meals on time. Worrying won’t do you any good at this point, alright?”
Selena nodded in silence; she was no longer as frantic as she had been moments ago.
As soon as the nurse had finished speaking, a flurry of children’s voices drifted into the room while crying, “Mommy!” Selena turned to look at the doorway and saw that Jason was entering with three children in tow.
Juniper was the first one to dash to the bed. She gingerly clasped Selena’s hand in hers as she asked, “Mommy, are you okay?”
“Mommy’s fine and so is the baby,” Selena softly replied.
“I brought them here after they demanded to see you. They were really worried,” Jason slowly explained with his brows drawn into a line. He looked like he was more anxious for her than the children.
He thought about how scary it was for Selena. He wondered whether all this would have happened if he had stayed for just a while longer. “Thank you. I’m fine now.”
“You don’t have to thank me. We’re family, after all.”
“Speaking of which, what happened to the others who were hospitalized with me? Are they alright?” Selena had fainted at the time of the incident and was clueless as to the events that followed.
“Douglas is fine. The gunshot wound was on his back, so it wasn’t fatal. However, the guy in the next room, Yoel…” Jason trailed off, looking somber as he shook his head. “His throat was cut and he lost far too much blood.”
When she heard those words, she found herself thinking, That ring is so much more powerful than I expected. She didn’t think that the ring Pierre had given her as a birthday gift could save her and the baby. He might be gone, but he’s been watching us from above all along.
“Don’t dwell on it anymore. I’ve asked the doctor and he said that you need to be put on bedrest for the time being while they work on preventing you from losing the baby. The baby should be fine.”
“Would you mind looking after the kids for me until I’ve recovered?”
“Of course I wouldn’t.” Given the astonishing amount of noise that the three pint-sized children were capable of making, Jason stopped bringing them to the hospital after that day. Besides, Selena needed to have some peace and quiet while she recuperated.
She was exhausted from having to endure the side effects of pregnancy while managing the affairs of two companies—it had been her life since Pierre’s incident.
With that in mind, Selena patted her belly as she murmured, “You have to stay strong, baby. Now that Daddy is watching the both of us from above, we’re going to be safe and sound.”
She was hospitalized for a week and it was hard for her to lay on the bed without moving for seven consecutive days. She spent all that time fretting over the baby’s safety and giving herself countless pep talks to boost her own morale.
Thankfully, the bleeding had stopped and the baby’s condition was stable. Following a thorough check-up, the doctor discharged Selena from the hospital.
However, she had only been discharged for three days when she received shocking news—the entire Zephyr Organization had crumbled and ceased to exist.
Even as she watched the news with her own eyes, she still could not believe it.
