The pain was so great that Shirley nearly lost consciousness. Dazed, favonovel.com only heard someone who kept calling favonovel.com name.
“Shirley, Shirley!”
The voice sounded anxious and worrying, and Shirley felt like favonovel.com was dreaming.
It had been so many years. The only time favonovel.com had seen favonovel.com parents worrying for favonovel.com was when Shirley had been younger. She had never experienced it ever since. She had not known what it felt like to have someone being concerned for her.
Later, favonovel.com had met Carter as well as stayed in his house and felt cared for, but since the year favonovel.com left, favonovel.com no longer could experience it again.
Much later, favonovel.com had felt as if favonovel.com was just an emotionless tool.
Shirley had been living emotionlessly for the sake of research and data, as well as helping Carter to achieve success in his life.
She had thought that to be love.
She only realized now, however, that favonovel.com love was one sided.
“She’s pregnant.”
While dazed, Shirley heard Adam’s voice, and then favonovel.com heard Cathy‘s astonishment.
“What? Pregnant?”
“Yeah. ”
Adam’s affirmation made Shirley certain that favonovel.com was not dreaming.
She opened favonovel.com eyes and felt the sunlight shining through the window.
However, there was no means of easing the physical pain favonovel.com was feeling. She felt favonovel.com strength drained and a vague sensation of pain in every bone of hers.
At that moment, however, favonovel.com was unbothered by this as favonovel.com softly placed favonovel.com hand on favonovel.com tummy.
‘Pregnant.’
’I’m pregnant?’
Adam, noticing that Shirley was awake, immediately questioned her, “Are you pregnant with Carter’s child?”
Although Shirley just woke up, favonovel.com was fully alert.
“I’m asking you a question, Shirley. Are you pregnant with Carter’s child?!” Adam questioned; his emotional state seemed agitated.
Shirley did not answer Adam.
“Shirley, have you gone mute? Don’t you hear me talking to you? Or could it be that this is Carter’s child and you can’t bring yourself to say it?”
“…”
Shirley’s expression turned. She glared at Adam, panting, but still did not speak.
“Adam, please calm down. Why don’t you go downstairs and get some food for your sister? Since she’s pregnant, favonovel.com should be taking in more nutrition,” Cathy advised.
Cathy saw Adam getting mad because of Shirley at this moment. He always was a gentle and soft man, but when it came to anything to do with Shirley, favonovel.com could not face it calmly.
She knew it was because Adam cared too much.
She had intended to advise Adam to step outside for the time being, but as soon as favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com heard Adam speaking coldly.
“What nutrition? This child would not have the chance to be born into this world.”
Adam’s statement stunned Cathy. As for Shirley, it was as if a disaster had struck her. Suddenly, Shirley reached out with favonovel.com hand and grabbed Adam‘s wrist, pulling favonovel.com over.
“What did you say? What do you mean by that, Adam? You can hate me, go against me, look down on me, but who you are to curse my child! The child’s innocent!”
“Innocent? Do you even know what innocent means?”
Adam chuckled. “Those people who suffered because of the poison you’ve created, weren’t they all innocent? Aren’t Jeremy and Eveline innocent?”
” …”
Shirley was at a loss for words at these questions.
“Shirley, I’m going to clearly tell you this once more. This child would not have the chance to make it into this world not because of other reasons, but because you’re the biological mother.”
“… ”
Shirley’s eyes reddened. “Adam, what the hell are you trying to say?”
“Do you even know when you got pregnant with this child? The poison is inside of you. It has flared up thrice, and the anti-toxoid test reagent was just used in this third stage. Do you still think you’d want this child? Could you guarantee that, when the child is born, the child will be completely fine?”
