Chapter 0047 Carolines POV : In my unconscious state , I was plagued by an awful nightmare . In my nightmare , I was adrift in a neverending stormy sea . A thunderstorm raged around me , tossing and turning my raft . I clung on for dear life , trying desperately to stay afloat , but thats when I heard a tragic noise : the sound of a baby crying . I looked around frantically , trying to find the source of the crying . Then , I saw him : my baby , struggling in the wild tides of the ocean . He was sobbing , calling out for me . Mommy , he screamed , fruitlessly splashing his arms in the ocean just to keep his head above the water . I screamed in horror and dove into the chaotic waters , fighting the waves to get to him in time . No matter how hard I swam , though , it was like the tides were always keeping us apart . I tried so hard to reach him , calling out his name as the waves carried us away . My heart sank when his head disappeared beneath the waves and he didnt come back up . No , no ! It couldnt be ! I couldnt lose him , not again ! Calling out to him did absolutely nothing , and soon I was overtaken by the ferocious waves . I tried to yell for my baby , but my lungs were quickly filled with water . I fought to reach the surface , but some unknown force was constantly dragging me deeper and deeper . As the air was strangled from my lungs , I knew for certain that I was finally going to drown . I had been too weak to save my baby , and now I was going to join him . Oddly enough , that terrifying thought brought me peace . I awoke in a cold sweat and a cry of fear on my lips . Sucking in lungfuls of air , I frantically touched my face , realizing it was wet with tears . I had been wracked with sobs in my sleep . Thats when a smooth , deep voice reached my ears . Youre finally awake . Did you have a nightmare ? I felt my heart sink , but this time it was out of anger . I glared over to see William , casually lying beside me in bed . To my utter shock , he was holding little George in his arms . I flicked my gaze between the two , speechless . When I failed to answer him , William calmly gestured to the baby with his head . Did you want to hold him ? เ Just as I was about to scowl a refusal , George opened his little blue eyes and looked at me . He smiled gummily , a cooing sound coming from his mouth . Thats when he said , M ma ma . William looked down at his child in amazement . Thats his first word , he whispered . I was stiff with shock . Painful memories of my dream came back to me in waves , and I had to force myself to look away . What did you do to me ? I growled , trying to keep myself from yelling . I didnt want to shout and scare the baby . +25 BONUS Chapter 0047 Just diazepam , William replied coolly . I knew you were just going to find some way out of getting a proper physical exam , so I had Laden bring some equipment to get some tests done . Are you crazy ? I gasped . I felt like my privacy had been violated by his depraved actions . How could you do that to me ? William rolled his eyes as though he hadnt just drugged me and tricked me into a medical test . Its already done . Dont get yourself in a twist . I felt anger bubbling in my heart . It was clear to see that William had never once respected me , my privacy , or my feelings . To him , I was just another pretty little object for him to use and throw away once he was done with me . Let me go , I demanded , my voice ice cold . He laughed callously in my face , not taking my demand seriously . Youre going to stay here with me until your test results come in , understood ? A sneer crossed his face . Dont you want to see your father again ? Hopelessness bloomed in my heart like a toxic disease . I couldnt stand his cruel actions anymore . I desperately needed to get out of here ; not out of the apartment , but out of this horrible life Id found myself trapped in . Silently approaching the window , I observed a furious thunderstorm happening just outside , just like the one in my dreams . The unrelenting storm reflected how I felt in my heart . I opened up the window and looked to see that we were high up on the fifth floor of the apartment building . Caroline , what are you doing ? Close the window , now ! William demanded , but I didnt care to hear him . I could hardly feel anything anymore . William set down his child gently beside him , alarm appearing just behind his eyes . Youre acting strangely again . Cut it out . I would never be free of William , would I ? He would never show an ounce of compassion towards me , but I refused to be his captive any longer . The thunderstorm raged before howling winds becoming the symphony to my pain and torment . me , the William jumped out of bed , panic beginning to form . Caroline? I didnt even look at him because I doubted my heart could take it . Instead , I just calmly closed my eyes and jumped . Caroline ! No !
