Homepage/I Got Pregnant By A Billionaire/
Chapter 17
Fresh air.
Sea breeze.
Ocean waves and the sounds of birds flying not so far from them makes Sabrinah smile and close her eyes.This feeling is great. She thought.
Zhander as well, on the other hand, smiles, somehow throwing glances at her while holding the steering wheel in his left hand and holding Sabrinah's hand with his right hand.Indeed. He thought.
They are on their way for a vacation, to Taylor's vacation house. They have planned everything. From the first day to the last day of their vacation. They planned to go beaching, camping and stargazing. Everything. However, fate seems to be twisted.
Both Sabrinah and Zhander got a call. Sabrinah from Ellie, and Zhander get a call from Mr Ferrer informing him of the progress of their new project. The call only took one minute and he hung up after. Sabrinah was laughing while still on the phone with Ellie. Just the usual best friend phone communication.
Out of nowhere, a car speeding pops out towards them. Instinct got Zhander to drive the wheel onto the left side of the street to avoid being crashed and hit by the car that seemed to be with-a-broken-brake. He somehow succeeded, but unfortunately, a big loaded truck car was on the right and succeeded in avoiding getting hit by the speeding car. But unfortunately, a big truck was across the street. And before Zhander could move the car away, the big truck hit their car. Due to the big impact, their car turned upsidedown. The driver of the big truck passed out right after.
Sabrinah, on the other hand, was severely hurt. She was putting her seatbelt on but she was still hurt severely. She has bumped her head on the car window and it leaves her face with some broken glasses causing bloods to flow.
Blood is everywhere. Broken glass from the broken car window was scattered around the accident area.
"Sabrinah" Zhander called out, trying to untie his seatbelt, but it wouldn't work considering he didn't have much energy. His head was bleeding as well as his arms. "Sab, wake up!" He hissed as he felt a sting in his head.
Struggling at unbuckling his seatbelt, he looks around, outside the car, actually. He felt a little bit of relief when he saw people running towards them to help. For the last time, with all his left force, he broke the seatbelt. He succeeded. He kicked the door open beside him.
People ran towards Sabrinah, who was barely breathing. When everyone realizes that Sabrinah is pregnant, the worries in their eyes doubled. It is two lives to either be saved or lost. This is a very difficult yet a must to do. Everyone thought.
It was just easy to open the door on Sabrinah's side. That made everyone feel thankful. They could easily get and save her, if she could still be saved, and the baby.
As soon as Zhander got out of the car, with the help of the people around them, the paramedics came and took over the work of getting Sabrinah out of the car. Anytime now, a car might explode due to the liquids coming out of it. Weak and worried, Zhander went to see Sabrinah who was lying on the stretcher ready to load inside the ambulance.
The paramedics suggested Zhander lay on the stretcher as well, but he insisted on going in the same ambulance with Sabrinah, and that he was fine. No, he's not fine. He got bruises on his arms, there was blood on his head and he hurt his leg. He needs to be treated too, but his biggest priority is Sabrinah's life as well as the life of the little man inside her. He can't stop himself from tearing up. They were supposed to be having a vacation... He was supposed to see the smile of Sabrinah as they would spend time together. They were supposed to relax, not to be hospitalized. This is beyond their expectations. This is very unfortunate.
When the ambulance reached the hospital, two doctors and four nurses welcomed them. They were called before when the ambulance was still moving. The paramedics informed the doctors about the critical condition of Sabrinah and the doctors took Sabrinah straight to the emergency room for an X-ray afterwards. Thirty minutes had passed and no doctor had left the emergency room.
Zhander called his dad as well as Ellie and told him what happened and everyone was shocked and worried, knowing she was in a very critical situation, including the baby. Especially when they heard sobs from Zhander. They were both busy but still rushed to see Sabrinah. The chairman first came and he comforted Zhander and said that everything would be okay.
Ellie was given a ride by Mark and came just before the doctor got out of the ER. She didn't even have time to ask Zhander how Sabrinah was going. She heard it from the doctor herself.
"Who is the family of the patient?" The doctor asked. Zhander stepped forward.
"I am the husband." The doctor then turned to face him and started talking.
"We need you to decide..." The doctor paused. "This will be very hard but we need you to choose between the mother or the baby. Apparently, we cannot save either of them . Nagkaroon ng seizure ang pasyente and there's only a 20 percent successful rate of saving both. That percentage might become less once the surgery starts."
Zhander struggled to stand straight from all the words that came out from the doctor. It is so hard to understand or his mind just won't let him understand.
His tears fell one after another just like rain. The scariest and hardest part of the decision he thought happens only in movies. He would rather lose a deal in the name of the company than make a decision in this situation. Because he knows he'll lose someone in either choice he will make.
"We'll give you some time to decide, Mr Taylor. But I need your decision as soon as possible or both lives will be lost." The doctor said before stepping out of sight.
Zhander was left weak and trembling. And just like that, his world crashed.
He knew who he should choose. He knows, but it's still very hard for him. He knew he should choose Sabrinah but...
Would Sabrinah still accept him once she recovered? Once she found out what he'll gonna do? Sabrinah would do otherwise. She might resent him.
" Hey," Ellie approached him. He didn't move. Nanatili lang siyang nakayuko kung saan iniwan siya ng doctor. " I know it's hard," Ellie started. "But everything's gonna be fine." She gave Zhander a comforting hug.
Zhander raised his head. He then saw his father. Raised his hand and put it to touch his shoulder. 'We will support your decision, son." He incouraged him. "I believe you know what's best. Everything will be fine."
Zhander nod his head continuously as his tears stream down when his father hugged him, giving him support and energy.
The room became quiet after a few minutes. Zhander have already decided and is just waiting for the doctor to give his consent to start the operation. Ellie and his father never left his side.
"Mr. Taylor," the doctor approach him. "Have you made a decision?"
Zhander just simply nodded.
The doctor handed him the papers where he needed to put him his signature to officially start the operation. He give it back to the doctor afterwards. Download Novelah App
