Chapter 158
Bella’s POV: “What did you say? Break up completely? I remember you telling me that you are about to
get married.”
In the face of mother’s question, I lowered my eyes and replied, “We didn’t get married. We broke up
completely. There will be no hope of reconciliation in the future.”
I said this on purpose so that mother would give up completely and stop thinking about the reconciliation
between Herbert and I.
Mother sighed and continued to cry.
I immediately changed the subject. “Mom, why did you call me so urgently?”
Mother was even angrier. “Betty’s pregnant!”
Betty?
I looked at my mother in shock. I couldn’t believe my ears. “Betty? Pregnant? God, she’s still a student.”
“She went out early and came back very late frequently a few days ago. I didn’t pay much attention to
her. This morning, I noticed her belly. I asked her who the father was, but she refused to tell me. She is
still a student. How can she be a mother? You don’t know how hard it is to raise a child alone. She
doesn’t know how difficult it is for a single mother.” Mother said while crying.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough in the university, some female students were also pregnant. But mother knew the pain of a
single mother, plus with her ideological culture; it was no wonder that she would be sad.
Betty was a stubborn girl, but she had always been very obedient. How could she suddenly get
pregnant? I never heard of her having a boyfriend before. Thinking of this, I suddenly realized something.
Betty has had a crush on Hank for a long time. Could it be… No, it was impossible. Hank was an upright
person and Betty’s teacher. Besides, he had no feelings for Betty. He would never do such a thing.
Could it be that Betty had fallen in love with another man because of the stimulation of being out of love?
I immediately got up and walked to Betty’s bedroom, knocking on the door. “Come in.” Betty’s voice rang
out. I opened the door and saw Betty sitting alone in front of the desk, depressed. I took a look at Betty’s
belly in her pajamas and found that it was bulging. Based on my experience, the child in her belly should
be more than four months old.
I frowned and was about to question her.
Betty then said, “If you want to ask me who the father is, then you don’t have to ask. I won’t say it. Also, I
won’t have an abortion. I want to give birth to this baby!”
1407 Although Betty looked dispirited now, I could also feel her stubbornness.
Betty was serious. She really wanted to give birth to the baby. She was just like me in the past.
I couldn’t bear to have an abortion when I found out that I was pregnant. What’s more, Betty’s baby was
already so big at this moment. She had already had feelings for the baby in her belly. She should be able
to feel the movement of the baby Before I could say anything, mother rushed in. She angrily pointed at
Betty and said, “You are only 19 years old. You haven’t graduated from university yet, but you want to be
a mother? Do you know how hard it is to be a single mother! And why won’t you tell us who the father of
the child is? Why?”
Betty did not respond to mother’s question. She just lowered her head. “Tell me, who is the man that
made you pregnant?” Mother was even angrier.
Betty continued to stubbornly refuse to speak. I immediately comforted mother. “Mom, please go out first.
Let me talk to Betty.” “You can’t even deal with your own affairs. How can you help your sister? Why did
you break up with Herbert this time?” Mother turned her anger to me. I lowered my eyes and didn’t know
how to answer her.
I was silent for two minutes before I said, “Mom, he doesn’t love me. He’s about to marry the woman he
loves. Do you think I should pester him?” Mother was silent. There was pity, sympathy, and sadness in
her eyes.
Mother lowered her head and said, “It’s indeed unnecessary.” After that, she lowered her head and

I knew that the reason why mother was silent was not only because she felt sad for me, but because she
was sad for herself. It was not the right time to talk about mother and Ryan.
Now, Betty’s issue was the most important thing.
The next moment, I walked over and closed the door. Before I could say anything, Betty asked me first,
“Sister, did you break up with Herbert again?” | “He doesn’t love me. I have no choice,” I replied calmly.
Betty suddenly whispered, “Love is really complicated.” I tried to communicate with her by asking her,
“Betty, I won’t ask who the father of the child is for the time being. It’s just that you are still a sophomore.
How can you go to school if you want to give birth to a child?”
“I can take my leave first,” Betty said stubbornly. I asked again, “You don’t have the ability to live alone
now. Who will raise the child if you give birth to it? Have you considered all these?” “After giving birth to
the baby, I can find a job outside. I can earn money to support the baby and myself. Of course, I need
your help. Sister, I really can’t bear to let go of the baby in my belly. It is now in my belly every day. It is
already a part of my life. Besides, I can’t have the baby’s father. Can’t I give birth to a child of a man I
love?” Betty said too agitatedly, and suddenly she cried. Hearing this. I could already quess who Betty’s
child was.

I grabbed her shoulder and asked, “Betty, what did you just say? The baby in your belly belongs to Hank,
isn’t it?”
