Chapter: 667
Once Zayden and Devin had departed, Theodore requested the remaining people to leave too.
In the quiet ward, with only a faint beam of light filtering through the window, he sat alone in a chair,
seemingly lost in thought.
His gaze shifted to the white curtain dancing in the gentle wind, as if he perceived a familiar outline

A sudden wave of intense pain overwhelmed his mind. Theodore grimaced, his skull pounding as if
under a hammer’s strike. The agony was so severe that he found himself silenced.
Instinctively, he groped for his medicine in his pocket, but the echo of Aldus’s parting words restrained

At that moment, the room’s door creaked open. Theodore looked up to see it was Horace.
Surprised, his brow furrowed and anger surged, “Didn’t I assign you to accompany her? What are you
doing here?!”
Horace, accustomed to Theodore’s temper, maintained his cool, promptly reporting, “Mrs. Anderson is

Meanwhile, in the room below, Ariana found herself alone, holding the prenatal examination results. As
she stared at the image of the fetuses, her heart was consumed by profound pain.
These were two lives – hers and Theodore’s children.
Now, she was forced to contemplate whether to end one of them. ©
The dilemma was brutally painful for any mother, and she felt cornered.
Ariana was utterly overwhelmed.
Her eyes welled up with unshed tears, her gaze cloudy and desolate.
Mitchel was right; she couldn’t bear this burden alone. At that instant, she yearned for Theodore’s
presence more than ever; she needed him to shoulder this weight as the father of their children.
