Pregnant and Hit by a Car: My Husband Forced Me to Sign a Settlement
Seven months pregnant, I was hit by a car right outside my front door.
But the driver didn’t stop immediately. Instead, they dragged me for miles.
I called my husband through the pain, but the line was busy.
When the driver finally stopped, she was crying on the phone:
“Gabriel, I think I’ve done something terrible. I… I hit a pregnant woman… What should I do? I’m so scared!”
Clutching my belly, I looked at her pleadingly, begging:
“Please help me… save my baby…”
She cautiously approached me, but her phone transmitted my husband’s voice:
“Is she dead? Tsk, half–dead is more trouble than fully dead.”
“Don’t worry, I’ll cover the compensation.”
My vision blurred from the pain. I struggled to make out the driver’s face, my voice trembling:
“Gabriel, is that you?”

Gabriel froze, his heart suddenly pierced as if by a needle. For a moment, the pain drained the color from his face.

Chloe forcefully covered my mouth, her eyes filled with panic and her voice shaking:
“I hit a pregnant woman on Greenhill Road, like I told you.”
“Gabriel, I’m so scared. Can you come find me?”
I made muffled sounds, eventually passing out from suffocation under her hand.
Gabriel breathed a sigh of relief, rubbing his forehead as he grabbed his car keys.
I was seven months pregnant. Gabriel remembered telling me to stay home and rest before he left. I always listened to him.
Greenhill Road was in the north of the city while our mansion was in the south. The pregnant woman Chloe hit couldn’t possibly be me.
It must have been the shock of the situation causing him to hear things.
In my hazy state, I was taken to the hospital. I heard Gabriel’s friend Dr. Evans teasing:
“Gabriel, you couldn’t control yourself again and went too far?”
“How many times this month? I’m not judging, but little Chloe isn’t out of the danger period yet. For the baby’s sake, you should hold back.”
“Natalie’s almost due anyway. Just wait another month or two.”
Gabriel frowned, displeased:
