Chapter 470
Why Did You Not Tell Me Johanna opened her bag and pulled out a card. “Take this. There’s two
hundred million in it. I made all this on my own, and it has nothing to do with Timothy. Take this as my
repayment for what you have done for me. We’re strangers from now on. As for the child, I won’t use
him as leverage to ask for anything. I didn’t plan on having this child, anyway.” With that said, she
opened the package brutally and took out two pills before swallowing them with a mouthful of lemon
water. Water spilled on her clothes, but Johanna could not care less. She looked at her mother with
teary eyes as she put down the glass. “May you be happy and have a happy family.” Vanessa turned
away. At that moment, the cafe door was flung open, and Timothy darted in. He walked right over to

“Darling!” he called out in anger. “Why didn’t you tell me you were pregnant?” “There’s nothing to tell
you about. I don’t plan on keeping it anyway,” Johanna replied calmly. When Timothy saw that her
clothes were wet, he glanced over at the table and saw the glass of water and the drug package. He
grabbed it and read the label. What? “Did you take this? When did you take it?” Timothy interrogated,
his voice shaking. Johanna did not answer. Timothy forced open her mouth and stuck two fingers deep
down her throat to induce vomit. Johanna felt nauseous. She pushed him away but to no avail. Timothy
continued until she threw up all her breakfast, but that was not enough to stop him. When he saw that
she had vomited, he went through her puke until he finally saw two undissolved pills. “How could you
be so selfish?” he roared. “I’ve listened to everything you said over the last four years. I did as I was
told because you didn’t want a child, but now that you’re pregnant, you should have at least told me! I
have a say in whether we’re keeping this baby or not!” “We’re already divorced, and I’m the one
bearing the child. I get to choose what I want to do with it,” Johanna replied coldly. Timothy was so
incensed he was on the verge of swearing in her face. “You got pregnant before we got a divorce, so,
of course, I have the right to know. You can’t just take it away like that!” he exploded. When he finally
stopped, he took another look at her and asked, “Please, Darling. Tell me why you’re so angry with
me.” Johanna remained silent. Remembering why Johanna was there, Timothy turned toward Vanessa
and narrowed his eyes. “What did you say to her?” Although the couple had stayed at the condominium
Timothy bought after they got married, they would still go back to the Jensen residence on important
occasions.

There was once he even overheard Vanessa talking rudely to Johanna. Vanessa was caught in a tough
spot. She quickly forced a smile. “I-I didn’t say anything to her. I ran into Jojo when I came out, so I
invited her for coffee, and we chatted for a bit.” “Tim, you should clean your hands,” she said, passing
him a piece of tissue. “You shouldn’t make things difficult for Jojo if she doesn’t want the child.” “Are
you kidding me?”
Timothy snapped. “You had been avoiding her, but now you’re telling me that you asked her out for
coffee?” Timothy called the waiter and asked to look at the security footage. Vanessa was terrified. She
had not expected Timothy to come here at all. All she wanted to do was to make Johanna take the pill
and leave right after. That was why she had picked a place close by. If Timothy saw the footage, he
would know that it was Vanessa who had brought the pill. “There’s no need to look at the footage,”
Johanna interrupted. “I ate it myself. She doesn’t like me because I’m her daughter.”
