My Cold Infertile CEO Regretted Everything After Ten Miscarriages Chapter 02

“Seraphina got you the best medicine there is.”

He looked down at me.”Other women miscarry and they’re fine in two days. You act like you’ve been brutally hurt.”

I opened my mouth, but my throat felt clamped shut.

His voice sharpened with impatience.”When Seraphina miscarried, she didn’t make a sound. She was back at the board meeting the next day. You? You drag it out for days.”

“Elias.”

I cut him off, my voice shaking.”You cared when Seraphina lost a baby. Did you ever care about me?”

He went still.

“Not even once,” I said for him.

His lips moved like he wanted to argue, but he swallowed it down.”That’s not what I meant… I just don’t think you have to be so… dramatic.”

Dramatic.

Ten miscarriages. To him, it was dramatic.

“Do you even know what a miscarriage feels like?”

He didn’t answer.

“No, you don’t.””You never asked. You just hand me the bowl, watch me drink it, and say there will be more.”

“I stayed with you every time…”

He trailed off and fell silent.

His version of staying was handing me the poison and walking away, leaving me alone in a pool of blood.

I suddenly didn’t want to talk anymore.

Nothing I said would ever get through to him.

In his world, ten abortions were as normal as eating or drinking.

“Get some rest,” he said again, and turned to leave.

“Elias.”

I stopped him.”This really is the last time.”

He hesitated, thinking I meant the last abortion. He hummed softly and walked out.

The door clicked shut.

His footsteps faded away.
