True Love Deserves a Second Chance
Chapter 310 Trouble at Home

Sebastian's car was racing home when his phone rang. It was Julian. "Sebastian, my kid's got no heartbeat, Alissa needs surgery right now. Can you get a pediatric specialist?" "Got it, on it."

Sebastian had just finished calling the specialist when he heard a loud boom. Plumes of white smoke spiraled into the sky in the direction of his villa. His heart pounded in his chest, a suffocating mixture of shock, fear, and disbelief overtaking him.

Dominic, who was driving, noticed too. "Mr. Winters, looks like there's been an explosion, and it seems to be at your house."

They were still miles away. No way they could get there immediately.

Sebastian's hands were ice-cold and shaking. His phone slipped from his grip a few times. On the third try, he managed to calm down enough to call Joyce. The phone rang and rang, but no answer.

He tried Benjamin next, but there was still no response. Same with the bodyguards. That's when it hit him-the danger was real. This was happening at his home. Joyce might already be gone. Thinking about the dream he had on the plane, he felt his whole body tremble. He called Derek, his voice barely a whisper. "Dad, something's happened to Joyce. Please check on her, I'm on my way." The Old Mansion was closer to his home than they were. Joyce and their child's chances of survival would be better.

Derek was stunned when he got the call. It took him a few seconds to respond, "Okay, I'm going right now."

After hanging up, Sebastian called Alexander. His voice was urgent. "Get the emergency team to my house, fast. Joyce's in danger."

Alexander replied immediately, "On it, heading out with the team now."

Sebastian had done everything he could think of. He sat in the back seat, watching the road, his eyes filling with tears.

He kept whispering, "Joyce, please be safe, okay?"

The thought of losing Joyce or their unborn child was unbearable. Joyce had fought so hard to protect their child, almost losing her life several times. If something happened to their child, Joyce would lose it. Thinking about this, Sebastian closed his eyes in pain.

Just then, Dominic said, "Mr. Winters, there's a traffic jam ahead. We need to take a detour."

Sebastian nodded, "Take the detour."

Dominic turned the car around and headed another way. But when they got to the community entrance, no vehicles were allowed through. The police had sealed off the area.

Without a second thought, Sebastian jumped out of the car, ducked under the police tape, and ran towards his house.

This was a villa area, with each house spaced far apart. His house was in the best spot, closest to the lake and farthest from the entrance. Sebastian, in his custom-made suit and black Italian leather shoes, sprinted down the community road. When he got to his doorstep, he froze.

The once beautiful villa was in ruins. The garden was a mess, flowers and plants blown away. The yard was swarming with police and medical personnel.

Sebastian dashed towards a stretcher, almost screaming, "Joyce!"

Hearing his voice, Alexander ran over to support him.

Alexander's voice was rough. "Joyce's bleeding heavily and unconscious, but she's not in immediate danger. Mr. Blackwood has serious head injuries, and both bodyguards are badly injured. Sebastian, you have to stay strong, Joyce needs you." Sebastian choked out, "Where is she?"

"Over there, the obstetrician is giving her first aid. She needs to get to the hospital right away."

Before Alexander could finish, Sebastian was already running towards the ambulance.

"Joyce, Joyce!" His voice grew hoarser with each call, as if he was using every bit of his strength.

When he saw Joyce on the stretcher, with a breathing machine on her nose and covered in blood, he staggered back a few steps.

Luckily, Alexander was there to catch him.

Sebastian stumbled to Joyce's side. He grabbed her hand and kissed it over and over. "Joyce, don't be scared, I'm here. You'll be okay, our baby will be okay too."

He didn't know what he was saying. He just needed to talk to Joyce, afraid she might never hear his voice again.

The doctor said, "Mr. Winters, Mrs. Winters is seriously injured and needs an immediate C-section to save the baby. The baby might still have a chance."

Sebastian's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at her, commanding, "I want both of them to survive."

The doctor, scared, replied, "Mr. Winters, we'll do our best, but we need to get her to the hospital now."

Sebastian jumped into the ambulance, sitting beside Joyce, holding her cold hand tightly. He couldn't think about anything else. All he could focus on was Joyce.

He was terrified that if he let go, they might never see each other again. Tears rolled down his cheeks, falling onto Joyce's hand. Blood was dripping from under her, pooling on the ambulance floor. From the day Sebastian knew Joyce was pregnant, he had promised to protect her and their child. But he had broken that promise.

Not only had he let Joyce face so many life-threatening situations, but now she was in this disaster right when she was about to give birth.

A crushing guilt weighed heavily on Sebastian's heart. If he hadn't forced her to come back, if she had left with Leonard, maybe none of this would have happened. Maybe Joyce and their child would be living well, not going through so much pain. All this pain was because he loved Joyce and wanted to keep her by his side. Thinking about all this, Sebastian felt his tears wouldn't stop. He placed Joyce's hand on his lips, kissing it repeatedly.

His voice was filled with deep pain and guilt. "Joyce, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."

The ambulance sped through the crowd, heading straight for the hospital.

Joyce was carried out and rushed into the emergency room.

Sebastian grabbed the doctor. "I want to go in with her."

Seeing his pain, the doctor reluctantly agreed.

Countless obstetricians and surgeons rushed into the emergency room. The lights in the operating room came on.
