Elizabeth had a lot of dreams one after another.
The scenes in the dreams flashed through her mind all the time.
In her dream, she had been walking for a long time, but she couldn't see the end of the dark road. She was tired and hungry.
She was in a trance and knew that she was dreaming. However, no matter how hard she tried and struggled, she could not wake up.
Josephine's face, Robert's faces, as well as James's and Zena's faces flashed through her mind again and again. She was scared and anxious, shouting for help constantly, but she still could not find a way out.
In the end, Josephine suddenly appeared in the desolate place in front her. There was a baby crying so loudly in her arms. Hearing the crying, Elizabeth was heartbroken.
Even if the light was dim and she did not see the baby in Josephine's arms, she knew that it was her child.
Josephine's face was pale. She carried the baby tightly with one hand and held a gun with the other, smiling weirdly at her.
Elizabeth was flustered. Subconsciously, she knew that Josephine had jumped into the sea and her child had not yet been born, but she was still afraid and nervous.
"Josephine, don't do this... Give my child back to me..." Elizabeth's whole body was trembling, but she plucked up the courage to walk toward Josephine.
Josephine's face was fierce, "You want to force me to die. Why should I return the child to you?"
"He's small. Give him back to me."
"Ha-ha!" Josephine burst out laughing. After a long while, she finally stopped laughing, "Although he's small, he can accompany me. Otherwise, how lonely would I be if I die alone? Am I right?"
Elizabeth kept shaking her head. She couldn't say anything due to the endless fear. She could only look at the crying baby in Josephine's hand in horror, and her heart was going to jump out of her throat.
"All of you want to kill me. Even if I die, I won't let you live a good life. Elizabeth, now..." Josephine grinned, revealing a mouthful of bloody teeth, "I want your child to die with me!
I want you to suffer a fate worse than death!"
"No!"
"Bang!"
The crying suddenly stopped.
Elizabeth's heart missed a beat. She was dumbfounded for a long time before shouting in panic and despair, "No..."
When Elizabeth suddenly opened her eyes, she saw a bright room. The endless darkness finally disappeared, but Elizabeth couldn't come to sense from the nightmare.
Her body was shuddering, and her eyes were full of tension and panic.
"Honey..." Seeing that Elizabeth had finally woken up, James was relieved.
He smiled at her softly, "You've finally woken up."
After she came out of the emergency room, he had been standing by her side all the time. He didn't dare to walk around, and didn't even dare to go to the toilet, because he was afraid that she would feel uneasy if she suddenly woke up and couldn't find him.
Hearing this, Elizabeth saw James. As if she had found a savior, she suddenly sat up and grabbed James's hand tightly, "Where... is my child?"
When James heard this, he knew that she had known about her pregnancy.
Although he was very happy to see her wake up safely, at this moment, his eyes darkened, and he felt a little disappointed in heart.
She knew it, but she didn't tell him about it.
He swallowed and didn't want to think too much. He smiled and patted Elizabeth on the back of her hand, "You can't be excited now. You need to have a good rest. Come on. Lie down first, okay?"
How could Elizabeth be willing to lie down?
She shook her head and grabbed James with more strength, "Where is my child? Is he all right?"
