315 Chapter 314 Mary, upon hearing this, felt as if she had found her anchor.
Indeed, how could the truth be known without asking? She suddenly looked at Ellis and said, “I’m not sick. I'm pregnant.” n The corridor suddenly fell silent.
After Mary said those words, her heart began to pound wildly, but the weight that had been pressing on her chest seemed to vanish.
Keera was right...
The child wasn't just hers alone; she shouldn't be the only one to decide its fate.
She quietly watched Ellis.
But she saw Ellis was already stunned.
After he heard her words, his gaze fell on her abdomen.
11:22 1/9 Bil) pter [x] The indoor heating was turned up high, and Mary had taken off her coat. Underneath, the sweater she wore clung to her slender figure; her waist and abdomen were thin, and there were no visible signs of pregnancy.
Ellis’s gaze then returned to Mary's face.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe concern on his face gradually receded, turning icy cold.
After a moment, he scoffed. “Then?” Mary hadn’t expected this reaction, and she was taken aback for a moment. She was about to speak when she heard Ellis scoff. “You wouldn't say that the child is mine, would you?” Mary was dumbfounded.
She knew her previous actions might have led to a misunderstanding, and she decided to clarify everything at once, “That day, it was my first time... Ellis, | have no other men.” She looked at him seriously and said earnestly.
But what responded to her was Ellis’s sneer. “Mary, do think I'll believe you just because you said so?” you 11:22 2/9 315 Chapter 314 Mary tightened her jaw. “What I'm saying is true, this child...” “Shut your mouth!” Ellis interrupted her sharply with a shout.
Keira hadn't expected this situation either.
Ellis was usually lively but took things seriously and responsibly. However, his face was now extremely ugly, and he exuded a cold aura.
Fearful that Mary might be hurt, she stepped forward and looked at Ellis, “Ellis, what is the meaning of this? You don’t want to take responsibility?!” Ellis was still rather polite to Keira, “If the child isn’t mine, why should | take responsibility? Looking for a scapegoat? Or do you think I'm an easy mark?” By now, Mary's eyes were wide open.
She looked at Ellis in disbelief...
What she said before, about it not being her first time, about playing wild, was all said in anger at Ellis. She thought that if she just explained herself clearly, he would trust her...
11:22 3/9 But she hadn't expected it to turn out like this! What did Ellis take her for? An uppity escort?! She clenched her fists tightly, her whole body trembling with anger, and even a flash of despair crossed her eyes.
She shouldn’t have had any illusions about Ellis...
Keira, however, furrowed her brows, sensing that something was amiss.
Ellis had just rushed up to find Mary, which clearly wasn’t a chance encounter, showing his concern for her. Then why was this situation unfolding? She suddenly realized something and turned to Ellis ask, “What are you doing at the maternity hospital?” Ellis’s complexion turned ashen, and he found it somewhat hard to speak.
But Keira continued to step forward and pressed, “Why did you swear that the child wasn’t yours?” Ellis let out a cold laugh and said, “Because | will never be able to have children in this lifetime!” At that statement, both Keira and Mary were 11.22 4.9 dumbfounded, their gazes inadvertently shifting to Ellis’s crotch...
Ellis suddenly felt uncomfortable in a particular area. He shifted his body and said angrily and embarrassedly, “What are you thinking about?! Mary knows whether | am capable or not, doesn’t she?” Mary was speechless.
Actually, he was quite capable; that day, he almost disassembled her skeleton.
Seeing their reactions, Keira asked, “Then why do you say you will never have your own children in this lifetime?” Ellis’s face turned red.
Yet after glancing at Mary, he took a deep breath and said with a sneer, “As you both know, I like horseback riding, right?” Keira nodded.
Ellis coughed, “I've spent a bit too much t horseback riding, which affected my reproductive bag. The doctor said my, um, viability is very low...”.
Keira fell silent.
11:22 5/3 She understood.
Ellis’s function down there was fine, but he had oligospermia.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNo wonder he, a man, was frequenting a gynecology and obstetrics hospital to seek treatment! She asked directly, “Low viability means there is still schance. Did the doctor say it was absolutely impossible for you to have children?” Ellis scoffed. “Of course not, If there was no hope left, why would he keep coming to see the doctor? He would have given up long ago.
Now at twenty-eight, Ellis remained unmarried, and his family wasn’t in a hurry to find him a wife-this issue was the reason.
But personally, he took it easy. For families like his, having children or not was immaterial. His uncle didn’t have any children either, did he? And he was living a good life regardless.
Oh, no, that’s wrong. His uncle did have children... two of them.
Ellis suddenly realized that this fact didn’t comfort him 11:22 6/0 at all, and he felt a lump in his heart.
He turned to Mary with a mocking tone. “So, if you want to deliberately provoke someone, don’t choose me! | know you're desperate to get married, but go find your child’s father, and don’t pin it on me!” Having said that, he felt an inexplicable irritability..
When he’d heard from Lewis that Mary wasn’t in good health, he worried that he was too vigorous that night and had caused her to develop sillness, which was why he had rushed here to see her.
As it turned out, Mary wanted him to be delighted to be a dad?! He used to think Mary wasn’t bad looking...
Right now, Mary's face was white as a sheet as she tried to explain. “But you're the only man I've been with, so the child is yours... Even if the probability is low, there's still a chance, isn’t there?” Ellis looked at her mockingly. “Yeah, maybe if we do it a hundred times, you might conceive once, and you hit the jackpot on the first try? | must be really amazing then!” 11:22 70 315 Chapter 314 His words were full of distrust and sarcasm.
Mary clenched her fists in anger.
She stared at Ellis, wanting to say something, but found herself at a loss for words, her eyes brimming with tears.
Keira furrowed her brows and looked directly at Ellis. “Ellis, considering your condition, | advise you to be more cautious. After all, your child would be a one-percent possibility! If Mary doesn’t want this child, you'll lose another chance to have kids!” Ellis scoffed. “Oh, you're trying to scare me? | am so scared. Mary, | never imagined you could be this kind of woman! If you are so certain that it’s my child, fine, let's go and do a DNA test!” Mary was trembling with fury. “Fine! Let's do it! Don’t you regret it later!” Comment R 11:22 Leave the first comment for this chapter Vote Send Gift
