Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret

Chapter 963:

At Beversea Hospital, Sadie’s recovery had taken steady steps over the past few days, and she had been looking a lot better than before. Feeling less stiff, she decided to try getting up. The instant her feet touched the cold floor, her legs buckled slightly, forcing her to grab the edge of the bed for balance.

“Sadie!” Tina burst into the room, clutching a glass of water that nearly slipped from her fingers the moment she saw Sadie standing. She rushed forward, catching Sadie just in time and helping her carefully back onto the bed.

“You can’t just hop out of bed like that!” Tina scolded, planting her hands on her hips, her cheeks puffed up in frustration. “How many times has the doctor warned you? You’re supposed to be resting! You’re carrying a baby, for crying out loud! Can you please stop making me worry myself sick?”

Tina looked like she was about to wear herself out from sheer anxiety. Sadie couldn’t hold back a soft laugh at Tina’s exaggerated expression. She obediently snuggled back under the covers.

“Okay, okay, I get it,” Sadie said with a small, reassuring smile. Her voice was calm as she added, “I’ll be more careful from now on. Promise.”

Only after hearing that did Tina breathe a heavy sigh of relief and place the glass of water down on the nightstand.

Then, as if struck by a sudden memory, Tina smacked her forehead dramatically.

“Ah! I almost forgot! Nathan called earlier! He said he sent something over for you—it should be downstairs by now! I’ll go grab it!”

Before Sadie could even react, Tina had already dashed out of the room like a whirlwind.

“Slow down! It’s not a life-or-death situation,” Sadie called out, laughing quietly as she watched Tina sprint away. The room slipped back into a calm silence once again.

Drawing in a slow breath, Sadie gently rested her hand on her still-flat stomach. In the past few days, she had begun to truly accept the little life growing inside her.

She already had Averi—her clever, sweet boy. But what if this time it was a girl? A bright, spirited little girl who mirrored her own younger self? Just imagining it filled her heart with warmth. A soft smile touched her lips as her thoughts drifted.

Then, the peaceful moment was broken by the sound of the door creaking open. A nurse, masked and pushing a cart, quietly entered with her head bowed low.

Sadie’s brows pulled together. She was certain she had already received all her medications for the day.

Unease crept over her as she observed the nurse’s movements. The nurse fidgeted nervously, her eyes flickering everywhere as she deliberately avoided meeting Sadie’s gaze.

When the nurse finally spoke, her voice trembled. “Ms. Hudson, the doctor requested an additional dose. I’m here to administer it.”

Sadie stiffened instantly. Something wasn’t right. The nurse’s face was unfamiliar, and her every move felt wrong—forced and shaky. Sadie couldn’t shake the feeling that something was off. She was certain she had never seen this nurse before. As the realization hit, a cold wave of unease washed over her.noveldrama
