+There are a few things I need to tell you.
His face got a bit drier.
He continued,
+While we're sleeping together, you don't have the right to get pregnant or have a child. You can protect however you want, but if you do get pregnant, you have to abort it. No discussion. Understand?
She thought to herself,
-Yeah, looks like the only thing I need to worry about is getting pregnant by you.
She had no words to say. What could she say? What could she do?
Seeing her silence, Matthew left the room.
Everything was ridiculously against her. She preferred to pull the hospital blanket over her head and start crying. Maybe at least she'd get tired and fall asleep.

Three days later:
Neither Jacob nor Matthew came anymore. Instead, one of the bodyguards who introduced himself as Eric stayed with her.
The room was relatively large, and Eric kept his distance, sometimes washing up, sometimes using his phone, or watching TV together. Whenever Eric left the room, another guard replaced him.
She didn't feel anything special. Sometimes she thought maybe she was dead and just didn't know it.
She still couldn't believe she was going to be imprisoned in that house. In her mind, she compared Matthew and James and couldn't figure out which one was worse!
Each was tormenting in their own way.
The wounds on her clavicle had healed well, only the marks remained.
But the bullet wound still needed care and dressing changes.
Eric was repeating some notes to her but her mind wasn't there!
/Miss? Miss Whitelock?
She snapped out of her thoughts and stared at Eric.
She whispered,
-Yes?
/Fortunately, you're being discharged today.
I'm going out so you can change your clothes with the nurse's help, then we'll return to the mansion together.
She gave a small smile.
-Alright.
Eric bowed respectfully and left.

/Were you satisfied with our care, ma'am?
The nurse girl asked softly while helping her change.
She stared at her in surprise,
-What?
The girl blushed and laughed,
/Well… since this hospital is for Mr. Gray, I thought I'd make sure you're satisfied with me or not.
-Oh… umm…
So his last name was Gray.
She thought to herself,
Gray? It should have been Black.
She smirked.
-Yeah… yeah, sure..!
I'll definitely remind them.
