Chapter 879

Chapter 879All at once, Hans sucked in a breath. “Don't you think that's rather extreme, sir?”
“If my wife hadn't discovered their ploy in time, do you think my child would still be here?” Shane
snarled.
Hans choked for a moment, and he no longer say that the punishment was too extreme.
In the end, he acquiesced with a sigh.
“Also, this is the first time the doctor and nurse attended to my wife today. It wasn't them who
conducted the prenatal checkup for my wife when she visited the previous time. Instead, it was some
other doctor and nurse,” Shane blurted out of the blue.
As understanding dawned, Hans' expression darkened. “Sir, you mean, they're not the only ones who
took a bribe, but some other medical staff in the obstetrics and gynecology department also...”
Th€ connection to th€ §ource of thïš dat@ r€§t$ in n0v3lebook“Perhaps the entire obstetrics and gynecology department is involved.” Shane cut him off.
Hans sucked in a breath before he nodded solemnly. “I got it. I'll go and deal with it right away.”
Having said that, he left the hospital room.
Shane didn't tell him that besides his hospital, the obstetrics and gynecology department of other
hospitals had also been bribed by Sean.
Natalie went to a lot of hospitals, yet the diagnosis remained the same—fetal malformation. Therefore,
there couldn't be any other reason save Sean having bribed them all.
He didn't mention it because Hans couldn't do anything about the other hospitals. As such, he could
only deal with those hospitals personally.Mulling it over, he took out his cell phone and made a call. “It's me. I need a favor from you. I owe you
one.”
After a few minutes later, the call ended.
Putting down his cell phone, Shane gazed at Natalie on the hospital bed with stormy eyes.
Why on earth did Sean do such a thing? How will it benefit him to abort Natalie's baby? Could it be that
he wants me to remain childless, thinking that I'll leave Thompson Group to him if I have no heir? Hah!
He's absolutely wrong if that's truly his thought. Even if I have no child, I'll never leave Thompson
Group to him!
“Uh...” At that moment, the woman on the hospital bed groaned, showing signs of rousing.
Putting his thoughts at the back of his mind, Shane regarded her closely.
Soon, the woman's eyelashes fluttered, and she opened her eyes.
“Shane?” Despite having regained consciousness, Natalie was still feeling weak and dizzy, her voice
feeble and hoarse.
Caressing her face, Shane gently answered, “I'm here.”
Natalie smiled at him. In the next moment, her eyes went wide as something occurred to her. “Where's
our baby? Is the baby still here?” she questioned frantically.
“Don't worry, for our baby is safe and sound,” Shane promptly reassured.
At that, Natalie breathed a sigh of relief. “Phew! That's great.” Her eyes then turned red. “You know
what, Shane? We almost lost our baby. This is all on me for believing those doctors.”“It's not your fault. It's all on Sean. You only fell for it because he bribed the obstetrics and gynecology
department of so many hospitals.” Shane squeezed her hand in a comforting gesture.
She's an ordinary person when all's said and done, so she won't possibly doubt the doctors' diagnosis.
Instead, she'll naturally trust their diagnosis.
“But I just feel so guilty.” Natalie sobbed softly.
I almost lost our child! It was just a hair’s breadth away!
Shane then sat down beside the hospital bed. “I'd like to know how Sean found out that you're
pregnant.”
Wiping her tears, Natalie tried her best to calm herself before replying, “Remember back when I was
attacked? It was Sean who sent me to the hospital, and he learned about my pregnancy then.”
“I see.” Shane nodded in understanding.
Natalie pinned her eyes on him. “Why did he do this, Shane?”
At her question, Shane pursed his lips. “I don't know the specific reason yet, so it's all guesswork at the
moment. I can only say for certain after investigating the matter.”
“Alright.” Natalie forced a smile in acknowledgment.
“Sleep for a while longer. I'll be watching over you here, so you can rest easy.” Shane stroked her hair
as he spoke.
