No More Saving Me Chapter 9
I went to work, came home, ate, and slept as usual.But Stefan's life fell completely apart.At work, he often zoned out.Sometimes his colleagues had to call him three or four times before he snapped back to himself.After work, he ran into Nadine at the entrance again.Nadine shouted at him unwillingly, "Why? You used to love me most, didn't you? Why did you change?"Stefan rubbed his brow."Go home. I'm tired. I don't want to argue with you.""I'm not going home! Stefan, I want an explanation!"You used to say you would love only me for the rest of your life. You said you would wait for me. Was all of that fake? Were you lying?"Have you fallen in love with Elise Bauer?"At the mention of Elise Bauer, Stefan could no longer stay calm.He exploded."Yes! I love Elise Bauer! Is that a problem?"Nadine, you asked me to wait, so I waited. You asked me for help, and for the sake of our past, I helped. What more do you want?"Will you only be satisfied after you destroy my

I frowned.Nadine smiled beautifully."But since you have already broken up, neither of you should delay the other anymore, right?"When something should be cut off, cut it off."We stood facing each other in silence for a while.Then I suddenly laughed."What? Are you trying to take the position now?"Nadine froze.For someone who had only ever been pursued and had never actively pursued anyone, that phrase seemed unfamiliar.After the unfamiliarity came anger."Elise, what kind of thing is that to say?"Let me be blunt. Weren't you the one who barged in halfway?"If not for you, Stefan would still be following behind me now."I tugged the corner of my mouth coolly."Is that so..."The next second, Stefan's voice sounded."What the hell are you saying?"Nadine stiffened and whipped around.Stefan stood behind her, his face dark.Nadine's face went pale at once."No... that isn't what I meant, Stefan..."Stefan cut her off coldly."Nadine Keller, there has been no

He held breakfast in his hands, along with a warm bag of cinnamon roasted nuts.Come to think of it, that may have been the day he first got to know the vendor.Somehow, he had found out I liked cinnamon roasted nuts, so he bought them for me every few days.His way of pursuing someone had always been direct and intense.Soon, the news that Stefan liked me spread across campus too.His friends were confused when they heard it and pulled him aside to ask who he actually liked.Stefan was silent for a long time before saying he did not know.The turning point happened on a rainy night.I had gone outside campus for field research for a group project.A heavy storm trapped me in the hills.To make matters worse, I got separated from the others.At some point, my phone service had been cut off because I had missed a payment. I could receive calls, but I could not call out.I curled up beside a rock, able only to hope that my teammates would come back for me.Two hours passed.

"It was what I was studying to do anyway."That was when I learned that Stefan's kindness to me had only been there to satisfy his hero complex.But I still could not give up. I began following behind Stefan like a little shadow.Until I saw with my own eyes how he and Nadine got along.Back then, Stefan was the most popular guy on campus, and Nadine was the campus beauty.They looked perfect together. The campus gossip boards were full of posts shipping them.It was a Thursday afternoon.I went to watch Stefan's debate tournament.Stefan was the best debater in his department.And that schoolwide tournament was one he cared about most.If he won, he and his teammates would represent the university at the state-level competition.But when it was Stefan's turn to speak, someone outside suddenly shouted, "Something happened to Nadine!"The next second, Stefan jumped down from the debate stage in front of everyone.Ignoring everyone who tried to stop him, he rushed out of the

Stefan rushed to the operating room door. The red words SURGERY IN PROGRESS burned his eyes.Too much information crashed into his mind at once, leaving his brain completely blank. Acting on instinct, he tried to force his way inside.Luckily, a doctor and several nurses passing by stopped him."Why would she abort it? Why... why would she abort our child?"Stefan's face was pale.One young nurse recognized him and spoke with open contempt."Aren't you the 'good Samaritan' from the news?""Your own wife was fighting for her life in the hospital, and you still had time to worry about someone else. How touching."Stefan looked up blankly and instinctively tried to explain."I'm a lawyer. She is my...""In that situation, shouldn't the first person she called have been the police?"The nurse glanced at him coldly."When the patient scheduled the procedure, she was crying so hard. You're a husband with a very hard heart."Stefan did not know how he got through that wait.When

"I'm sorry. I really didn't know who else to call."I'm so scared. Please, can you lend me Stefan for a little while? Just a little while..."I opened my mouth. My voice came out hoarse."Why didn't you call the police?"Nadine, when you were in danger, why was your first instinct not to call the police, but to call someone else's boyfriend?"Nadine choked into silence.The next second, Stefan's furious voice came through."Elise Bauer, are you done yet?"Do you have to act like a paranoid lunatic about everything?"Can you just stop for once? I'm exhausted!"The call ended abruptly.Only numbness remained, along with the doctor's sympathetic eyes."Miss, don't overthink it."Don't upset yourself. The baby matters now."My fingers settled over my lower abdomen. For a moment, I felt lost.The baby mattered?But if a relationship had already cracked, would the baby's arrival still mean anything?While my mind was drifting, a message suddenly popped up on my phone.It wa
