Chapter 173: Chapter 173

The tears slipped through his eyes as he sniffed and kissed her hand again gently.

However, he soon felt Rebecca's fingers start moving, and before he could raise his head to glance at her the fingers wrapped around his hand.

His heart filled with warmness.

"Rebecca!" He calls her name thinking that she is awake. But when he finally looked at her side. She's still in deep sleep mode.

Edwin sighed helplessly.

All he looked at was her face and then glanced at her belly where he hesitantly forwarded his hand to touch her belly. He wanted to feel the baby for the first time.

So, when his hand finally went to her abdomen. He could sense her belly was no flatter anymore. Her small abdomen could be filled on his palm to go emotional before the tears again run down.

"I'm sorry baby for arriving late. But I promise I'll never leave you and your mother…" As he completed his words, he slowly moved back his hand before creasing it lightly. Like he can sense the child.

He sat there for a long time without moving from his chair. Not until he finally heard the door opening sound coming from his behind.

The next moment he turned around and saw Julia standing at the entrance with a pale look while Sam held the door handle for her.

"Rebecca!" Julia hurriedly rushed toward her friend's bedside and felt stunned watching her on the hospital bed.

When Sam calls her to inform her about Rebecca being hospitalized. She felt shocked and worried for her friend and her child.

She asked him many questions and Sam sensed how tense she was to this sudden news and asked her to wait for him. He will come to take her to the hospital.

However, Julia told him to wait for her outside the hospital. She can come by herself.

Sam sends her hospital name and address. While waiting for her arrival outside the hospital.

When she finally reached Sam explained everything to her which made her feel shocked and angry.

She somehow feels she should stop her from going there. She should be more strict about not leaving the house after what happened last night.

She asked Sam to take her to Rebecca's ward.

Edwin silently stood from his chair to see Julia. He silently leaves her with her friend. Because after waking up the person Rebecca needs most would be Julia, not him. He doesn't know if she even wanted to see him after their last argument. Somehow this realization made him feel how distant their relationship was from each other.

But for now, leaving is her best choice. She will need her…

Sam, who is at the door, followed his boss outside of the ward.

They went to the empty corridor to talk alone.

Edwin looked outside from the window. While his face looked serious, almost grimacing.

"What did you do with those bastards? He wants to hear if they got their punishment or not.

Sam silently glanced at Edwin's fierce face and started to report him.

"Boss, after you left, they asked for forgiveness and started crying but ignored that I sent both to the most dangerous prison from where they can't leave in their whole life. And until now, their parents have also been informed by our connection about their going to prison for trying to kidnapped and rape a pregnant woman. Both guys' parents decide to break all their relationships with them and don't even ask which prison they send…Boss, they already start paying for their bad karma."

"Then they are lucky enough to still be alive…" Edwin glared at Sam. While Sam pressed his lips tightly.

"Make cops remember to punish them perfectly. I want to hear them asking for death." Sam never heard them be this cruel but he knew Edwin was right.

For guys like them who just wanted to have their ways with women by force serve this punishment. Even worse than that…

"Alright, Boss. I'll tell them that."

Edwin nodded and asked about the old man. He is also hospitalized in another ward but he has no time to check on him.

"Sam, how about the old man? Is he fine?"

Sam flashed a light smile and responded, "He has already woken half an hour ago. The doctor reported he is absolutely fine and could discharge the next morning after the rest."

"Alright." Edwin felt satisfied with Sam's actions and how he handled all the work.

He tapped his shoulder lightly before leaving him alone and going into Rebecca's ward direction again.

Sam inhaled a long breath as he looked at Edwin's back and thought, "How long do they need to go to be finally together?" He mumbled to himself.
