Til Death Do Us Part

Chapter 22 Nikki is going to die

Nikki was hospitalized with a sickness, and endured five hours of pain every day. She had to find out a

way to keep her baby healthy. Fortunately, the baby was very strong. The baby was so healthy even if

Nikki had a cancer. For this, Nikki was very pleased that the baby could grow up healthily and strongly.

Moreover, she should have the confidence to give birth.

Sitting in front of the mirror, Nikki combed her hair. Every time she combed, her hair fell out. Nikki had

no hair on her hairline. She wore a hat to hide her ugliness. Similarly, her stomach could not bear any

food. Nikki could only live on liquid food for several months.

In the ward, nobody would came in except the nurse . Shane and Joe also went to the wedding. She

could only wait until the wedding ended and give up her favorite man to someone else.

Nikki rethought of herself five years ago. It was in the day that she married Ryan. No matter how frugal

and ostentatious the wedding was , Nikki was happy as long as they could get married. But today Nikki

discovered that if a man loved a woman, he couldn’t wait but wanted to announce that the lady was her

lover. And the lady was Iva.

Nikki's tears blurred her eyes again. Didn’t she decide to let go of her feelings on Ryan?Why couldn’t

she let it go?

Nikki held her breath and focused her attention on elsewhere to prevent her emotions from fluctuating

too much. The nurse shouted for Nikki to go for an examination. She struggled to get up and walk while

she was pregnant. It was not easy for a mother to give birth.

Nikki leaned on the wall and moved out step by step. Suddenly, her stomach was in pain as before.

When she was in pain, she became weak and walked crookedly.

The baby moved greatly in her abdomen. Nikki doubt that maybe it was caused by the stomachache.

She felt prickled while her legs were weak. Nikki knelt on the ground. The pain in the stomach was

almost the same as the five hours of torture. Nikki covered her stomach and was extremely

uncomfortable. She asked the doctor for help.

"Doctor, doctor, I'm giving birth," Nikki shouted.

Here, guests arrived at the hotel as expected. All of them were waiting for the arrival of the groom and

bride.

Ryan stood upright at the window, waiting to pick up Iva as soon as time was up. He felt stuffy and not

well for his body. His headache continued intermittently. Also Ryan was uncomfortable in his mental

state. Ryan had two pills to calm himself then he walked out of the room.

Walking near the door, he felt his ears were in buzz. Ryan stopped and covered his head.

"Mr. Carson, are you OK?" The person who accompanied him asked.

“I;m OK, let’s go."Ryan answered and shook his head.

They met Carl in the corridor. Carl was drunk and holding his wine. Carl looked very decadent and

unshaven, as if he hadn't taken care of himself for many days.He saw Ryan come straightly. Then Carl

smiled ironically. He walked toward Ryan and stumbled on him.

"Congratulations, Ryan. Today you are getting married with Iva. May you two grow old together and

have a lovely baby.” Carl said.

They didn't know whether Carl was really drunk or not.But his words made no sense.

Ryan push his hand away and said coldly, "Are you crazy?"

I'm happy, I'm very happy. If you don't choose Iva, how could I pursue Nikki? Ryan, do you regret it?

Will you regret?” Carl asked.

"Why will I regret? Today is the wedding of Iva and I. Don't mess it up." Ryan warned.

"No, you're happy to get married. But what about Nikki? She's lying in the hospital and waiting for her

death. Ryan, how can you be so cruel?" Carl said with tears in his eyes. We all considered that men Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

didn't cry so easily but Carl did. "In the future, your wedding anniversary with Iva will be Nikki's death

date. Is it ridiculous?" Carl said.

Carl's words made Ryan frowned. what did he mean? Why did Nikki wait for death in the hospital.

"Carl, you're insane!" Ryan shouted excitedly.

“I'm not insane. I want you to feel guilty for your whole life. Nikki is going to die.”

Ryan's heart tightened. His pupils became wide. Ryan grabbed Carl's collar unbelievably, "Don’t say

these damned words!”

"Do I need to kid you with Nikki's death?" Carl said.

Carl smiled and said, "Nikki gives birth for you. She didn't want to die with regret. She insisted on giving

birth although she had a stomach cancer. For the past few months, she suffered from pain every day.

The night before you two divorced,Nikki fainted at home. But she unplugged the syringe needle the

next day and ran out of the hospital to see you, but you? You are going to divorce her. Ryan, how can

you be so cruel? Why do Nikki love you so much that she would even give up her life?”

These words were repeated three times in Ryan's mind. Ryan was stubborn. He couldn't believe it. He

preferred to believe that Carl was telling a lie to prevent him from getting married but not to believe that

Nikki had advanced gastric cancer.

"You're kidding, how could Nikki have stomach cancer? She's obviously healthy, and she was active a

few days ago ..."

Feeling frightened,Ryan was panic. Nikki's father also died of gastric cancer. Would Nikki suffer it even

she was so young? Now Ryan was confused and released Carl.

"Believe it or not. I don't want to tell you at first but I can't control it. The happiness of you and Iva is

based on Nikki's pain. She is not happy. So Iva and you should also be unhappy.This is what you owe

Nikki.” Carl said.
