"Where is the doctor, hurry and give her pain relief..."

Bradley held Freya's hand tightly, seeing her looking so exhausted, his heart felt like it was breaking.

But how did she become like this in just a few hours?

The doctor came over to check and shook his head, saying, "If we administer pain relief injections, it will affect the fetus, and the mother may not know how to exert force during childbirth. I have discussed this with Madam, and she firmly refuses to take it."

"So... Mr. Austin, please ask Madam for her opinion. If she agrees, I can administer it."

"Administer it!"

Bradley didn't hesitate, and he uttered this word through his clenched teeth.

He couldn't bear to see his woman suffering, especially since Freya couldn't bear it anymore!

Seeing his strong determination, the doctor had no choice but to administer the pain relief injection to Freya and also give her intravenous fluids to replenish her energy.

Perhaps the pain slowly dissipated, and Freya's mind gradually regained consciousness.

"I thought I wouldn't see you again."

Tears flowed even faster.

She had never felt so helpless in her life. Even in the most bitter and painful days, she had gritted her teeth and persevered. But when it came to giving birth, she was defeated.

Bradley kissed the back of her hand, filled with self-blame, "It's all my fault for not being by your side immediately, letting you suffer."

"Where did you go?"

It had been over three hours since Rosa called until now.

Therefore, Freya guessed that this man might have going abroad.

Bradley's eyes showed a brief avoidance, hesitated for a moment, and ultimately chose to conceal the truth, "I went back to handle some things, which delayed me."

"Is that so?"

Freya saw some unusual gleam in that man's deep eyes.

She couldn't help but feel that this man was hiding something from her.

"Really, when have I ever lied to you? Even if I have, there must have been reasons beyond my control."

Bradley brushed aside the scattered hair on her forehead and bent down to kiss her.

But the more he did so, the more Freya felt that something was off.

No, all his recent actions were off.

He always left inexplicably, forbidding her from touching either his phone or computer. If he wasn't hiding something, why would he be afraid of her seeing?

Freya was not worried that this man would betray her but worried that he was facing difficulties and not willing to confide in her, silently bearing it alone.

Both harbored thoughts until the doctor came to check the cervix, confirming that she could give birth, and Freya was pushed into the delivery room.

Originally, Bradley intended to accompany her in the delivery room, but Freya did not want him to see such a gory scene.

Therefore, Bradley waited outside.

...

Patrick's villa.

As soon as Madeline received the news that Freya was about to give birth, she packed up the children's things and was about to go to the medical room with the two children.

Behind her came the voice of Lina, "If you want to leave, go ahead, but leave the children at home."

"Why?"

Madeline ignored her grumbling and pushed the two children towards the door.

Today, Patrick had something to attend to and was not at home, so she had to go to the medical room alone.

"The hospital is full of bacteria. If you take the children there and they get infected, it'll be the children who suffer."

Lina rushed over and directly pushed away the baby carriage.

Madeline did not back down and moved forward to snatch. The mother-in-law and Yara-in-law started quarrelling like this. "Let me tell you, this is my son. I will decide whether he stays or goes. No ying can control me!" Recently, the war with Lina has not eased, but has escalated day by day to the highest level. Lina herself is fierce, and she can't take advantage of Madeline's temper at all. In addition, after repeatedly complaining for a long time, gradually making Patrick resentful, and suggesting several times to ask her to leave. Lina blamed all of her son's changes on Madeline, believing that her son was bewitched by this woman. Previously, she may have thought about leaving, but with Patrick repeatedly protecting Madeline, Lina's resentment towards her deepened. She was determined to drive Madeline away. "Your son? This is my son's son. Their surname is Perry, not Luna."

This statement angered Madeline when spoken. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have let the child be surnamed Perry. Now, I have been tricked by this old witch. She coldly chuckled, "Your surname is Luna, not Perry. These two children have nothing to do with you." This statement, like a slap in Lina's face, caused her face to contort visibly. In the next moment, she raised her hand and angrily shouted, "You uncultured thing, since you were born without a father's guidance, let me help teach them." As she spoke, a heavy slap was about to come down. However, before it touched Madeline's face, she caught it and gently pushed Lina, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground. "Ah, it's truly unreasonable. The future Yara-in-law has already started mistreating the mother-in-law before even marrying in. Will she ride on the mother-in-law's back in the future?" Lina began to cry and scream as if deeply wronged. But her eyes kept darting towards the coffee table, where a light was constantly flashing.

Madeline was worried about Freya's situation and did not want to get too involved with her. She quickly left the house with her two children.

Behind her, Lina kept mumbling, "Madeline, you can't take the children away, come back to me."

But Madeline didn't look back, and she slammed the door shut as she left.

Once the people had going far away, a malicious smile crept onto Lina's face as she got up and took out a mini camera hidden in the coffee table.

She pressed the play button and captured the footage of Madeline pushing her.

Just now, she deliberately attacked Madeline in order to provoke her to retaliate, so she could film her mistreating the elderly and post it online.

With a few internet trolls in action, she was sure this video would go viral.

She couldn't do anything to this woman at home, but with the help of the internet users, they could easily tarnish Madeline's reputation.

Lina smugly sat on the sofa.

Now, she didn't have to do anything, she just needed to let the online community deal with this woman.

When the time comes, the journalists will be attracted over, and she is playing out the "drama of a devoted mother" very well. In any case, she will not allow Madeline to set foot inside the Patrick family's door. This kind of woman is simply not worthy of her son!

...

Madeline found it difficult to drive with two children, as the family driver had left with Patrick. Therefore, she decided to hail a taxi by the roadside. However, it was rush hour and she waited for a long time without any cars stopping. The two children woke up and started crying loudly. Madeline was on the verge of exploding, just as she was about to call Patrick, a woman's voice sounded from behind her, "Where are you going? I'll take you!"
