The 99th Divorce Chapter 2126 - A Nightmare Abyss

Chapter 2126: A Nightmare Abyss

When Shen Manting sensed Shen Luo’an’s mood, she suddenly recalled something from a movie that she had watched recently. It was that people who feel insecure will tense up easily because they are afraid of losing things; this left a deep impression for Shen Manting.

For some reason, this saying naturally surfaced in her mind.

Shen Luo’an sensed Shen Manting’s actions and strangely, he felt more at ease. He then became much gentler with his motions.

They did not make out for long and soon, Shen Luo’an let go of Shen Manting.

Shen Manting immediately opened her eyes and looked at him as she softly asked, “Dear, did you have a nightmare?”

Her soft, gentle voice sounded especially alluring on this particular night.

Her current tone of voice was completely different from the cold, indifferent and distant tone that she had used while she was talking in her sleep earlier on.

The current Shen Manting with him was much more pleasant.

Shen Luo’an embraced her gently and acknowledged what had just she said, softly, “I dreamt that you were leaving me just like how you did two to three years ago.”

When Shen Manting heard this, she immediately pushed him away and said, “Dear, n.o.body would curse their own wife like that!”

“My own wife?” Shen Luo’an thought.

His lips naturally curled up into a smile upon hearing this and his initial feelings of anxiety instantly disappeared.

“I had a car accident two to three years ago,” said Shen Manting rather reproachfully. “I would never leave you. Stop cursing memor you’ll be left without a wife if I experience a car accident again,” she said.

Shen Luo’an smiled and drew her into his arms before whispering, “Alright, I won’t.”

“Dear, I had a nightmare as well,” said Shen Manting. She clung onto his arms and pouted as she said, “I dreamt that I was giving birth to a child but you weren’t by my side. I was alone in the hospital and I was so afraid. I also had to stay in the hospital alone. There wasn’t anything to eat and I was terribly hungry. As such, I bought the same food as other people but I couldn’t stomach it because I had just given birth…”

Shen Manting’s voice gradually softened as she spoke and sounded slightly upset as she said, “I felt so sorry for myself and I was so depressed. My heart ached badly as if this had really happened to me before.”

Shen Luo’an tightened his embrace around her. Shen Manting’s heart continued to ache as she continued on softly, “But these dreams aren’t real, are they? These things have never happened before so they aren’t real. You’ll never treat me like that. You certainly wouldn’t ignore me when I’ve just given birth to a child, would you?”

Shen Luo’an’s instantly felt faint and his heart felt terribly hollow.

It was very likely that these things have indeed happened before.

He had arrived two days late when Shen Manting was giving birth back then.

She needed him the most, the father of her child by her side during her labour and yet he was absent.

The day after giving birth to their child is when a woman is in her weakest state and he was not there for her either.

He only arrived on the third day and had missed out on everything.

He had let her down.

Shen Luo’an fell silent for a moment before saying, “You’ve said that it was just a dream. It’s impossible for you to feel nothing for it so it’s normal to feel this upset. But, ultimately, it’s just a dream.” He then caressed her long hair gently and whispered, “Don’t take it seriously.”

Shen Manting felt slightly more at ease as she clung onto him.

She snuggled against his chest and like a spoilt child, stated, “Dear, my stomach feels terrible. It feels bloated and it hurts. Give me a rub.”

She then reached over and grabbed hold of his palms to place it on top of her tiny belly.

Shen Luo’an’s palms were hot and he ma.s.saged her tiny belly with an appropriate amount of strength.

Feeling comfortable as he ma.s.saged her, Shen Manting closed her eyes and fell into a deep slumber once again as she clung onto his arm. However, she plunged right into a nightmare abyss once more.
