Chapter 256: Wait, what are you planning to do?!

Regardless of what challenges lie ahead, if complications of your pregnancy arise, I will choose to save you at any cost, even if it means sacrificing the child. This time, I won't hide behind Ragnar's decision. I must be prepared to do whatever is necessary, even the unthinkable, to ensure I do not lose you, Adeline.

Adeline listened to Uzana's solemn vow, her heart breaking at the gravity of his words. "No, please, don't do this…,"

Adeline heard Uzana's serious promise, feeling her heart ache at the seriousness of his words. Tears filled her eyes and streamed down her cheeks as she comprehended the depth of their troubled relationship and the sacrifices he was prepared to endure for her.

Turning away, she faced the other side of the room, distancing herself from Uzana who sat quietly at the edge of the bed lost in his own thoughts.
