NovelEnglishChapter 1352 Walter yanked the bed sheet and wrapped it around Quinn, scooping her up and bolting outside.
Abigail snapped out of her daze and shoved Soren, signaling him to hustle after them.
Before the ambulance even showed up, they were already tearing down the road to the hospital. Abigail chased after them, noticing Walter's car was flying like it was in a drag race. "Why's he driving like a maniac?" Abigail muttered, gritting her teeth and flooring it, blowing through a red light to keep up.
Quinn slumped against the passenger seat, her fingers clutching the seatbelt, sweat dripping from her forehead.
She turned her head with effort to look at the guy next to her.
Without glancing at her, Walter said, "Hang tight. We're almost there." To Quinn, his voice was just a muffled buzz, and she couldn't make out the words.

In a moment of weakness, she closed her eyes, not sure if it was the pain or missing William that made tears slip down her cheeks.
Ten minutes later, they finally screeched to a halt at the hospital.
Quinn was rushed into the delivery room, and the door slammed shut. By the tAbigail arrived, only Walter was standing outside.
He had a serious look, staring at the door, lost in thought.
Abigail ran over, panting, and asked, "How's it going?" Walter ignored her, and Soren chimed in from the side, "It's not that quick." Abigail scratched her head and started pacing back and forth, all jittery.
Two hours dragged by.
Abigail ran over to peek through the delivery room door, but she couldn't see squat. "Why's it taking forever?" she asked, glancing at Walter, who was sitting there all calm.
To Abigail's surprise, even though the kid wasn't his, Walter was still waiting there, cool as a cucumber. Anyone who didn't know better might think he was the dad.
After more than an hour, the door finally creaked open, and a doctor stepped out. Abigail quickly ran up and asked, "Is the baby here?" "Not yet, the cervix isn't fully dilated. Is anyone here a family member of the patient? Do you want to go for a C- section?" Abigail and Soren both turned to Walter, who sat there stone-faced, not saying a word.
The doctor looked stunned and asked, "Isn't there anyone who's family?" Abigail whispered, "Can I do it? I'm her friend." "Nope, gotta be family," the doc said.
He glanced at them, sighed, and went back inside to ask Quinn herself.
Quinn was in a fog, on the verge of passing out, but the pain was so intense she couldn't.
The doctor beside her asked if she wanted a C-section, but she couldn't hear clearly.

She weakly half-closed her eyes, staring at the blinding light, opening her mouth but unable to make a E sound. By now, she was already numb from the pain.
Her vision was filled with hallucinations, flashing by like a messed-up slideshow.
Quinn thought she might be dying.
She also thought that Alexander might really be dead; otherwise, why hadn't he shown up by now?
The doctors huddled up and one of them said, "Let's go for a Ossection. We can't wait any longer." A flash of lightning outside lit up the room.
The person on the bed snapped his eyes open, threw off the covers, and vers, and got out of bed. But after a few steps, he collapsed, knocking over the bedside lamp, which crashed to the floor with a loud bang.
