Running After my Secret Billionaire Ex-Wife by Yoonworks

Chapter 78



“I’m sorry to say this, but she lost her child, the doctor continued. 

10:35 AM 

The Sullivans were so shocked that they all froze while Clara’s mother immediately trembled down as her husband held her tightly and she cried in his arms. 

Serra’s eyes watered, and the next thing she knew, the tears were now flowing down her cheeks. Chance’s jaws were clenching repeatedly as he even punched the wall out of rage, while Louis needed to sit down as he could barely feel himself. 

The cry of Mrs. Sullivan mingled with Serra’s cry, as they were all devastated by what Ciara had been through. 

“How did she lose it? What happened?” Mr. Sullivan asked as the tears sparkled in his eyes and he was trying to hold it down. 

“According to our investigation of her body, there was a hard blow in her stomach that repeatedly resulted in her fatal bleeding, for which I suspect she was punched or kicked. It could be the reason why she collapsed when she was brought here to the hospital” Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Chance cursed aggressively as he was fuming mad while putting his hands against the back of his head while walking continuously, his chest heaving for a sigh as he could feel the tremendous wrath that was now banging out of him. 

“My poor baby…” Mrs. Sullivan sobbed weakly as she couldn’t imagine Ciara’s situation. 

“Those monsters!” Serra roared angrily. Jail wasn’t even enough to punish them! They killed Ciara’s baby! They tortured her! And God knows what they’ve done to her while they held her captive for those hours!” 

Every one of them could feel each of their wrath, and if killing were justly legal and acceptable, they would grant it. An eye for an eye. 

And what happened to Ciara they all know that they will never forgive who’s behind it and who contributed to it. 

They all needed to be strong for Clara at that hour, but they were all worried about how they would tell her without making her break down. Because, for sure, the news would break her not just into pieces but into dust, 

“She would not accept this news” Serra said as she was now wiping her tears off as they were all waiting for Ciara to be conscious. “We need to support her. She needs us the most right now. This is painful for her, but we need to be strong for her, Mr. Sullivan said. “She would be very devastated. She seems so excited about building another family and giving Cara another sibling. And yet this happened,” Mrs. Sullivan continued crying. 

“Let’s wait for Ciara’s statement before involving Callum here. I think we should let her decide on this Serra added 

“I really had a bad feeling about that  . If I really found out… Chance warned. 

When Ciara slowly opened her eyes and they all noticed it, they immediately stood straight as Mrs. Sullivan went to her bed first. She held her hand and smiled despite the tears in her 

eyes 

“Hey, sweetheart, can you hear me?” she asked gently, the tears in her eyes looming again as they sparkled. 

“Mom,” Ciara called in her hoarse voice weakly

“Hmm? How do you feel?” she asked. 

Ciara slowly remembered what happened to her. It was so vivid in her mind that she remembered all the  assaults and the beatings she got from them. And how she clearly remembers the last thing that happened to her 

She wanted to shout the pain angrily, she wanted to curse them one by one, but she was so weak that her they rolled to the sides. 

that her eyes started getting blurry as 

“Sshh. You are now safe. We are all here for you, Mrs. Sullivan said as she wiped off her daughter’s tears, despite how her tears started rolling down her cheeks too. 

Serra’s tears rolled down her cheeks, and she could feel how hurt Ciara was as it reflected in her eyes that she had been through the 

worst 

Chance and Louis were controlling their emotions as they were all too serious, while Mr. Sullivan’s jaw kept on clenching as the anger: was vividly shown in his eyes. 

“Mom, Ciara called desperately, reaching for her hand. 

Mrs. Sullivan hell her hand right away and squeezed it. Serra sat on the side of the bed and caresses her head to console her, despite the clutching, of her cliest. 

What is it? Just rest for a while, Ciara. You need your energy back.” Mrs. Sullivan was convinced. 

Ciara’s tears kept rolling down her cheeks as if she were deeply wounded, and she could still feel how badly they hurt her as Mrs. Sullivan could feel her shaking hands. 

“They  assaulted me…” she cried. 

Mrs. Sullivan’s eyes widened. Serra’s jaw dropped while Chance and Louis‘ eyes were widening, and Mr. Sullivan felt like he heard a horror story that reflected on his face. 

“They touched my body without my consent. They told me they would rape me and kill me. They even  me the stomach,” she uttered weakly as her lips were trembling so hard and her sob mingled with it. 

e and punched me in 

Mrs. Sullivan bowed and almost knelt down on the floor as she tightly held Ciara’s hand, who was also holding her. Serra covered her mouth, as she didn’t want her sobs to escape, while Louis stood aggressively and went out of the room because he couldn’t hear what happened to her. 

Mr. Sullivan turned his back and faced the wall as he put his hands against it and bowed while his shoulders rocked as his sobs echoed in 

the room

Mrs. Sullivan’s disturbing cry followed as she could not control it. To hear how her daughter suffered so much at the hands of her abductors cuts so deep that she cannot hold her cries. 

Serra hugged Ciara as she rested her head against her shoulder and cried for her while Ciara closed her eyes. She felt so disgusted, and she could still vividly recall how they  assaulted her and how they touched her. And she doesn’t think there would be any amount of apology that could erase it. 

Her family cried like they not only sympathized with her but also felt her struggle. And even Gwen, who was silent at the side all along, heard it from Ciara, the one whom she’d been looking out for since Ciara was a kid. As she stood there strongly, the tears reflected in her eyes, which she just tried to control 

Chance wanted worse than the punishment of those who held Clara captive than being jailed. He wants to torture them with his own hands, and even Louis thinks that jail is just too light for the heavy trauma they put on Ciara. 

It was a deep trauma for all of them, and imagining how painful it was, they all know that it was three times as painful for 

Clara 

Now, they don’t know how to explain to Ciara that she also lost her child. Telling her felt like they were rubbing salt on an open wound She was already in pain, and losing a child would be the most devastating thing she had ever been through other than suffering from the traumatizing assault she experienced 

The doctor went in after many 

hours 

to check on her again. 

“You’re already stable, Miss Sullivan As of now, what you really need is a bedrest since you lost a lot of blood and losing a child is quite stressful.” 

Ciara as 

“A child?” C 

asked confusingly as she looked at her family as well, who were looking away. 

“Oh, your family didn’t tell you yet? You were four weeks pregnant, and unfortunately, the baby didn’t make it alive because of the internal bleeding caused by the blow in your stomach. I’m sorry for your loss, Miss Ciara 

Ciara froze. She immediately remembered the continuous punch and the way Shane kicked her stomach nonstop, and she felt herself dripping at that time. 

She shook her head as she caressed her stomach. “No. What do you mean I lost my baby? Can you do another check–up, Doc? She pleaded weakly. 

or you, but I hope you will stay 

“I’m sorry, Miss Ciara. But the test results showed that the baby didn’t make it. I know that this is hard for strong on this. I’m so sorry for your loss.” 

Ciara shook her head aggressively. “No! There might be some problems with your test! That can’t bel 

Mrs. Sullivan immediately hugged Ciara to stop her from lashing out on her bed as she cried on her daughter’s shoulder. “No! “Ciara shouted with a deafening cry that mingled with her broken shout. 

“No! No! I cannot lose my baby! No!” She shouted hoarsely as she was trying to push her mother.

was growing weak. 

She shouted the pain that echoed in the whole room as she sobbed so hard. For the first time, it was the most deafening and disturbing cry she huid ever done in her entire life.
