Chronicle of Life

Chapter 1: I Don't Care

Vanessa endured the pain in her abdomen and came out of the hospital hall.There was a long staircase at the door. Vanessa took two steps down, but she couldn't take a step because of the pain in her abdomen.

The nurse's words echoed to her ear when she just left the ward, "Mrs. Simon, you just had an abortion. I suggest that you rest in the hospital for two days. Otherwise, your body will not be able to stand it and leave some sequelae."
Vanessa pressed her lower abdomen hard and closed her eyes with a bitter smile.She was dying of cancer, so why bother about the sequelae …

Tomorrow was Oswald's birthday, so she must go back and decorate the house in advance to accompany him for his birthday.Taking a deep breath, Vanessa continued down the stairs.After walking a few steps, she broke out in cold sweat because of the pain and her face turned pale.At this time, a black car suddenly opened under the stairs.

The car stopped and Oswald pushed open the door.

When Vanessa saw him, she remembered that she had an abortion just now. She panicked and couldn't help but take two steps back with a panicked expression.Oswald did not miss the panic in her actions. His expression became even colder. He strode up the stairs and rushed to Vanessa. He grabbed her collar and pulled her over roughly.

"Vanessa, I told you not to look for Elena anymore, don't you understand?"

Oswald's voice was filled with anger.Vanessa was stunned for a moment, "I didn't …""Stop lying." Oswald pushed Vanessa so hard that she fell onto the stairs.

The prismatic stairs hurt Vanessa's tail bones and her face turned even paler.

"I saw it with my own eyes in the surveillance cameras!" Oswald lowered his eyes and said, "Now that Elena has been stimulated, she starts to hurt herself again. I'll get even with you!"

With that, Oswald grabbed Vanessa's wrist and dragged her down.

Vanessa's abdominal pain was unbearable. She couldn't stand up at all. After being dragged a few steps, she rolled down the stairs out of control and fell two steps. She was stopped because Oswald pulled her wrist.

She knelt on the stairs with a twisted posture, stabilizing her body by Oswald's pull.

"Oswald, will you listen to my explanation? I really don't …"

But before she could finish speaking, Oswald suddenly let go of his hand. Vanessa lost his support, tilted her body, and tumbled down the stairs.

A dozen steps, she just rolled down like this.

When Vanessa finally stopped on the flat ground, her entire body was in intense pain. She almost fainted.

Oswald sorted out the cuffs ruffled by Vanessa and looked angry. He walked down the stairs slowly and stopped in front of Vanessa who was lying on the ground and could not stand for a long time.

"Vanessa, I hope this is the last time I warn you. Stay away from Elena."

His tone was ice—cold and full of threats, "Otherwise, next time, I will not just make you hurt so lightly like this."

Oswald slowly bent down, his handsome face approaching Vanessa.

"Next time, I will cripple your legs so that you can never go out again in this lifetime, understand?"

Vanessa lay on the ground, enduring the double pain in her body and heart. She stared at the floor and said weakly, "Oswald, aren't you curious why I appear at the hospital gate?"

Oswald frowned, "Could it be that you have a terminal illness? Are you going to die?"

Vanessa's heart skipped a beat. Before she could say anything, she heard Oswald's cold voice, "That would be even better. Lest I feel you in the way when I see you."

Vanessa closed her lips, unable to speak.Yes, how could Oswald care whether she was dead or alive?Oswald squatted down, grabbed her chin, and raised her pale face.

"Vanessa, I don't care if you're alive or dead, so don't try to make me sympathize with you. I won't fall for it. I'm warning you, if you dare to hurt Elena again, I'll make your life a living hell."
