Chapter 514 Should I Abort the Baby?
The light in the restroom was not as bright as it was outside. Evelyn took the test paper and tested it
again in disbelief. Finally, she saw the same result, she almost fell from the toilet, and her forehead was
covered with cold sweat. She tried her best to put on her clothes. She wanted to stand up, but her body
couldn’t support her, so she fell back and sat down again.
Her left hand accidentally fell on her lower abdomen. It was flat, and nothing could be seen, but it
harbored a little life inside at this very moment.
She felt surprised, yet there was an indescribable sensation as if an invisible and wondrous force tightly
connected them. Her breath synchronized with the little life inside her, and perhaps only those who
have experienced motherhood could truly understand this unique emotion.
When did this happen?
Evelyn didn’t know how many months she had been pregnant. She made an effort to recall the timing
of her last menstrual cycle. Her periods had always been regular, rarely experiencing any delays, and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteven when there were delays, it was only for a few days. She and Huston usually took precautions.
Reflecting on the recent circumstances, the only possibility was that time at the hospital when they
were both exhausted and she was in an
extremely anxious state. They needed solace and couldn’t help but engage in an intimate encounter
and completely forgot to take precautions. Afterward, with the involvement of the case, she also didn’t
take any contraceptive measures.
It had been over a month, and she did not have her period this month.
Evelyn was speechless. How could this happen? She got pregnant in just one try.
She was pregnant, carrying Huston’s child.
Her mind was in chaos, with various thoughts racing through her head, and she was unable to sort
them out. The safest course of action now would be to go to the hospital for a check-up to confirm if
she was truly pregnant. After all, the pregnancy test results could sometimes be unreliable. However, at
this moment, it was clearly impossible to do so.
As long as she went to the hospital, it would be equivalent to letting Huston know she was pregnant.
She could not take this risk and did not dare to trust that man again.
What would happen if he found out that she was pregnant?
They were not married, and she had no status. They were just dating, and she was carrying a murder
case. He would probably ask her to abort the child. Otherwise, everything would be troublesome.
Thinking of this, a chill ran through Evelyn’s body, and although
she touched her soft belly, she couldn’t feel any joy.
She could only bear this fact alone and not tell anyone. She had already used a pregnancy test paper
for confirmation, and considering her food aversions, there was no doubt that she was pregnant. She
had to accept and believe this result.
She loved Huston, so when she discovered her pregnancy, she was overwhelmed with joy and tears
apart from being surprised. No matter how much she might deny it, even if she could deceive others,
she couldn’t deceive herself.
The conflicting and helpless feelings were driving her almost insane. Just thinking about all of this
made it difficult for Evelyn to catch her breath. She couldn’t even dare to imagine what Huston’s
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreaction would be if she were to tell him about the
pregnancy.
Would he lift her up, spin her around, kiss her forehead, and say, “We must bring our child into this
world”? Or would he look at her coldly and say, “Now is not the time for a child”?
Would he experience the joy of becoming a father for the first time?
Evelyn’s eyes were red. Thinking of such a scene, she felt so happy. But soon, she shook her head. He
probably wouldn’t react that way.
Even she knew the timing wasn’t right for this child, let alone someone as meticulous as him. Given the
current circumstances, there was hardly any room for accepting the existence of a little
“Should I abort the baby?”
Evelyn only imagined for a moment and felt her stomach tighten. Even though the embryo inside her
was still very small, its existence was real, which made her feel pain.
She loved her child and wanted to keep it but couldn’t. How sad
it was.
