A Miracle Fault novel Chapter 1

'Even if the world collapses or we are reincarnated, you are always my beloved wife—Stefan Byrne.'

The X City, a coastal metropolis, was still a comfortable place with no burning heat in June.

However, the changeable weather still annoyed everyone living here. No matter how often the sea wind breezed, it still failed to send people pleasant coolness.

At dusk, Emmeline Campbell was sitting on the balcony outside the study on the second floor while touching her bulging belly.

'Babe, you will be born twenty days later. Mommy loves you more than everyone else in the world.' She murmured to herself.

Perhaps the baby was the only shelter from which she could feel warm. She narrowed her eyes and started to meditate. Suddenly, the phone placed on the desk rang. She opened her eyes and took a glimpse at it.

She slowly stood up and grabbed the phone—it was a video sent by her sister, Anayah Campbell.

She had been used to Anayah's annoying messages, the content of which mostly were texts or videos.

She covered her belly and clicked the video out of instinct.

However, she saw a man and a woman, both naked, were clinging to each other on the bed in the video.

"Stefan, slow down!" Anayah moaned coquettishly.

Though it was just a three-minute video, both of them were indulging themselves into crazy orgy.

Obviously, Emmeline could tell from the video that her husband actually had an affair with her sister aboveboard. She couldn't help laughing ridiculously.

She slowly turned around and still covered her round belly with both hands. She was trembling all over, feeble. When she was about to take a step forward, she suddenly stumbled over the thick carpet.

She felt a sharp pain down her belly when she hit the ground hard. She felt so painful that she couldn't even maintain her breath. She wanted to struggle to stand up. However, her eyes were blurred with tears.

She finally managed to pick herself up while holding back the sharp pain. However, something warm started to stream down her legs from her crotch. The sharp pain and desperation knocked her out before she could call for help.

Finally, the door was opened. When seeing her faint away, the servant screamed, "Mrs. Stefan! Mrs. Stefan, wake up!"

While there was still mere consciousness remaining, Emmeline only heard Paul, the butler, was shouting, "The baby is about to be born! Call Master Stefan right now!"

Then the siren of ambulance sounded around her ears.

When she opened her eyes again, she could tell from the white ceiling that she was in the hospital.

'Where is my baby?'

She slowly turned around and wanted to sit up straight. Then she saw a nurse hanging an infusion bag for her.

The nurse smiled when she noticed that Emmeline woke up, "Mrs. Stefan, you are awake."

Emmeline moved her lips and wanted to say something. However, her throat was so thirsty that she couldn't even utter a word.

The nurse immediately served her a glass of water from the table beside, "Mrs. Stefan, what do you want to say?"

"My baby…" Emmeline still felt hard to utter.

The nurse wanted to reply but she held it back. After hanging the infusion bag, she looked at her with great sympathy, "Mrs. Stefan, just have a rest and take care of yourself. You can press on the ring button if there is anything you need."

When the nurse turned around and was about to leave, Emmeline grabbed her arms and shouted with her hoarse voice, "Where is my baby? Take it to me!"

"Mrs. Stefan…I am so sorry…Your baby has gone!" The nurse lowered her head and answered.

"What?" Emmeline was rendered desperate!

"Mrs. Stefan, I am so sorry…Your premature baby died of hypoxia as soon as he was born." The nurse burst into tears.

Emmeline grabbed her arm hard, "No! Impossible! He should be still alive! He has been moving actively in my belly every single day! How could it be possible! Take him to me!"

Emmeline suddenly pulled off the needle and rushed out with her bare feet.

The nurse could clearly see blood dropping down from her hand. She immediately stopped her, "Mrs. Stefan, your baby has gone! You are bleeding! Please stay on the bed!"

"Get off!"

Emmeline was exerting all her strength to push the nurse away. She teetered out of the ward. Then she rushed as fast as she could toward the nursery room with bare feet. At this moment, a doctor came out.

When seeing Emmeline, the doctor was stunned, "Mrs. Stefan, I am so sorry to tell you that your baby has gone because of a want of oxygen when you fainted away. You still have to take care of yourself in the following weeks as you just gave birth to the baby. Don't worry, you will still have a baby another day."

When hearing that, Emmeline suddenly slouched with both arms hanging loosely.

'Babe, even you choose to leave me alone, right?'

'Sorry, babe, I shouldn't have fainted!' Tears streamed down her pale face.

"Mrs. Stefan! Why don't you wear your shoes! You will be sick!" Paul immediately took shoes for her to put on.

As she noticed that Emmeline had woken up as soon as he just returned from the villa, he immediately made a call to Stefan.

While Paul was making the call, Emmeline went to the staircase and went downstairs.

She stood behind the huge pillar at the gate of the hospital. Then she raised her head to look at the sky, 'Babe, are you waiting for me in the heaven? I am coming to your side!'

At this moment, a car suddenly stopped at the gate with a sharp brake. Stefan hopped off and didn't even close the door of the car. He rushed towards the elevator inside.

Emmeline walked forward beside the pillar. She slowly headed to the car. She sat on the driver's seat and closed the door. When seeing that the key was still hanging beneath the steering wheel, she smiled desperately.

She activated the engine and backed up. Then she drove out of the hospital.

When Stefan ran out of the elevator and headed straight towards the ward, there was no one on the bed but a quilt left. Where was she?

Paul rushed in, agitated, "Master Stefan, Mrs. Stefan is missing!"

"Missing? You told me she just woke up!" Stefan felt his heart beating fiercely. At the same time, a bad feeling crawled on his heart.

He rushed to the balcony and happened to see his own car running out of the hospital! He was rendered suffocated with his eyes wide opened!

"Emmeline!" He turned around and grabbed the car key from Paul. He jumped off the balcony from the third floor. A nurse in the second floor was stunned when seeing that.

Emmeline drove at full speed on the road. While Stefan was following behind, feeling burning anxious. When noticing that the speed of Emmeline was still mounting, he was about to explode.

He lowered down the window to shout, "Emmeline, stop! It's so dangerous! Please listen to me!" Though he shouted as hard as he could, Emmeline still heard nothing.

She soon drove the car on the highway, going straight towards the coastal line.

Stefan was about to collapse. He wanted to drive to her front to stop her! However, her speed was so incredibly crazy that both of them would definitely get seriously hurt if he did so.

He could do nothing but to keep yelling, "Emmeline! Honey! Stop! Please!"

Emmeline didn't even hear his voice. The only thing she could see was that her baby was waiting for her in the heaven.

She soon went above the horizon and headed to the viaduct.

When seeing the fence, she smiled. Perhaps her final bless was to go to the heaven and stay with her baby. That was her only way to get rid of the ugly world.

She just wanted to get out of here!

She was getting closer and closer to the fence. The car rushed forward like an arrow. She closed her eyes, letting out an elegant smile. There was no way back…
