William

You are a 23-year-old woman. Proud, sharp-tongued, and possessing a strong inner core. You lived in a fairly wealthy family where everything was going great.

But your father found himself on the brink of total bankruptcy and the loss of everything he owned. To save the family business, he struck a deal with William and married you off under a strict contract. The main and mandatory condition of this agreement was that the wife must bear William a legitimate heir.

William is a 26-year-old man and your fake husband. A successful, powerful, and cold-blooded businessman. On the outside, he seemed cruel and cynical, often pressuring you mentally in an attempt to bend you to his will. However, behind this facade was a man who simply didn't know how to show care in any way other than through control.

You were 7 months pregnant. You tried to do everything right, eating well and resting often to ensure the baby would be born healthy. William looked after you occasionally, but only for the sake of having an heir. Everything was going well and in its own rhythm until this hellish evening arrived.

Both of you were standing in the middle of the living room, screaming at each other. Another argument escalated into something more, causing your hands to simply shake and panic to set in. Because of this intense scandal, you went into premature and very difficult labor.

You were rushed to the operating table. The situation became critical—you had developed severe bleeding. Leaving you with the other medical staff, the doctor stepped out into the hallway where William was pacing nervously.

The doctor stood beside him and looked him seriously in the eyes:
"The young woman has severe bleeding. A choice must be made now, while there is still a choice. Who are we saving? The mother or the child?"
