CHAPTER 598: CHAPTER 599: DURING PREGNANCY

Madam Bai shuddered, tears streaming down her face as she struggled to believe, "Impossible, Bai Zhengyuan, where have you hidden my child? I want my child, my child!!!"

Bai Zhengyuan embraced her, his voice choked with emotion, "Dead, long since dead. Died before being born, it was already a stillbirth, the doctor said we had no choice but to induce labor..."

"Liar, liar!" Madam Bai screamed shrilly, "My child moved! When I was pregnant, she definitely moved in my belly! How could it be a stillbirth, Bai Zhengyuan, you beast, did you kill my child and raise Yun Wenwan’s child in her stead, did you!"

Yun Wenwan, the very woman who completely bewitched Bai Zhengyuan with her potions.

Back then, Bai Zhengyuan’s heart and eyes held only that woman, and his current wife was with him because of a politically arranged marriage.

Madam Bai could feel it, though they had treated each other with mutual respect for so many years, never fought, and even seemed like a happy couple in the eyes of others, she knew that he had never forgotten Yun Wenwan in his heart!

Seeing such a result now, what more was there for her not to understand!!!

Bai Yuejie, was clearly Yun Wenwan’s daughter!

Madam Bai wept as if her heart would break, her form collapsing into disarray, "Give me back my child, where has my child gone, I beg you to tell me, my child, my poor child, I don’t believe she was stillborn, it absolutely can’t be true!"

Bai Zhengyuan hung his head, speaking softly, "It was indeed a stillbirth, already dead before being born. You were mentally fragile at the time, I didn’t dare to tell you, and just by chance Wen Wan... was also pregnant, so I..."

"Ah!!!" Madam Bai seized his hair, yelling furiously, "You beast! You beast! Beast!"

Bai Zhengyuan’s face was scratched several times, even a handful of his hair was pulled out.

A man of his age, always so lofty and accustomed to being pampered and appeased, how could he endure such humiliation.

His heart burned with rage in an instant, then he pushed Madam Bai away, roaring, "Enough already! I’ve told you she’s dead, over twenty years have gone by, what more do you want!"

Madam Bai was thrown to the ground, dazed, having never been treated like this.

She paused for an instant, then cried out even louder, collapsing to the floor, her tears soaking into the carpet, shouting, "Why... why, I don’t believe... I’ve raised Yun Wenwan’s daughter for so many years, ready to give her my heart, yet my own child is nowhere to be found! Why, why! Bai Zhengyuan, you beast, give me back my child, give me back..."

Bai Zhengyuan left feeling a headache coming on, turning around and storming out the door.

Madam Bai sobbed until she lost consciousness.

While unconscious, she remembered the time over twenty years ago, when she was still pregnant.

At that time, the entire family was bursting with spirit and joy.

She, with her bulging belly, was treated like a precious jewel by both families, treasured as if too fragile to drop, too delicate to melt in their mouths.

Back then, Bai Zhengyuan always liked to touch her belly, listening to the sounds of the cherished little one inside.

Each time their child kicked, he always laughed with exceptional joy.

How lively that child was, tumbling and turning in her belly, causing an uproar like a storm.
