+26 Bonus Xander's phone rang just then . It was the men's health specialist from the private hospital he often visited . " Mr. McNeil , I'm sorry to disturb you so late . The results of the comprehensive re - examination you took last week are out , and the situation doesn't look good . " The doctor's tone sounded heavy yet professional . " Your sperm motility ... has already fallen below the critical threshold of normal , and the rate of abnormal morphology is extremely high . Combined with your previous medical history , the clear diagnosis is severe oligospermia and asthenospermia . " With your current condition , the possibility of natural conception is ... Near zero . " The smile on Xander's face instantly froze , and he sobered up at once . " What ? Near zero ? That's impossible ! Serena ... She's pregnant ! " He almost roared his words out , and his voice trembled with disbelief . The doctor on the other end was silent for a moment , then spoke with even more caution . " Mr. McNeil , I understand how you feel . But medical test results are objective . Before your marriage , your motility was still acceptable . " But after passing 30 , especially within the past year , your indicators have plummeted dramatically . Our analysis suggests it may be related to your long - term stress , irregular lifestyle , and certain bad habits . As for your wife's pregnancy ... We cannot make any judgment about her situation . " The call ended after that . Xander's phone fell to the ground with a clatter . He turned his head stiffly to look at Serena beside him , whose face had instantly gone pale and whose eyes were darting away after hearing the call . " Serena . " Xander's voice was hoarse to a terrifying degree as he said , " The child in your belly ... Whose is it ? " Serena's lips quivered , but she couldn't say a single word . She only backed away in fear . Xander understood everything at that moment . An overwhelming wave of betrayal , humiliation , and fury engulfed him . He suddenly recalled that cold and rainy night when Mom was lying on the operating table , listening as the doctor pronounced their daughter dead and her womb was removed . Meanwhile , he had abandoned both mother and daughter without hesitation , all because of one exaggerated phone call from Serena ! His only child ! His and Mom's child ! The child was gone forever due to his indifference and betrayal ! The viewers ' comments showed up in a frenzy on the screen . 1/2 Chapter 8 " Karma ! How satisfying ! " " Hahaha ! That bastard Xander is dumbfounded now ! He was going to raise someone else's kid ! " " Serves him right ! He personally caused his only child's death ! And now he feels the pain ? Too late ! " " He should be on his knees thinking about the daughter who never even got to be born ! " Xander broke down completely after that revelation . He gathered evidence and drove Serena out . +25 Bonus The immense emptiness and regret left him feeling like a headless chicken . He finally realized what he once had and what he had personally destroyed . Like a madman , he went to look for Mom . He stood before the food stall , looking haggard and unshaven , with no trace of his former powerful demeanor . He looked at the busy Mom , and his eyes became filled with pain and humble pleas . " Jessica , I was wrong ! I really know I was wrong ! I was blinded and a bastard ! I'm not even a human ! " He spoke incoherently and even wanted to kneel down . " I've wronged you about the child ! I've wronged our daughter ! That bitch Serena ... the baby in her isn't mine ! It's from a male escort at a nightclub ! 40 " I'm suffering my karma ! Jessica , forgive me , and let's start over , okay ? Whatever you want , I'll give you ! Company shares ? Property ? As long as you say it- " Mom stopped what she was doing and calmly looked at the hysterical man in front of her . In her gaze , there was no hatred and no love - only indifference after seeing through his facade . She cut him off , her voice clear and icy . " Xander , what I want is for you to disappear from my world completely . Leave forever and never appear again . " Xander stood there as if he had been struck by lightning and froze in place .
