Chapter 1016 Honesty

She looked like she just saw a monster, and it annoyed Douglas. I'm not a bad guy. Why is she looking at me like I'm

a monster?

Before he could say anything, Whitney started tearing up. She clutched her blanket and bit her lip. "This kid isn't

yours." She was scared that Douglas might want her to abort the baby, so she lied to him.

Douglas' face fell. He grabbed Whitney's chin and frowned, looking fierce. "You were with me all the time three

months ago. You couldn't have slept with someone else."

Whitney curled up a little and held her belly protectively. She insisted, "It's not yours. You don't have the right to do

what you want with it. And who the father is is none of your business." The child was her only hope to continue

living, and she wouldn't let any harm come to it. Determination shone in her eyes.

Douglas could guess why she was so insisting, so he calmed down. "I'm not telling you to abort it, that's for sure."

Whitney eased up a little, and her eyes went wide with disbelief. She asked hesitantly, "R-Really?"

"You said I'm not the father. My decision doesn't count, does it?" asked Douglas.

Ah, snap. He tricked me! She gritted her teeth and decided to ride with the lie. "Stay out of my business and deal

with your family." I can't take away someone's happiness just so I can be happy.

Douglas knew what she was thinking. However, Emily saved his life, and he had promised he wouldn't tell anyone

who Lucy was, so he didn't explain. "That's my child in your belly. I need to care."

Whitney shivered. She was reminded of what Emily told her, and she said, "You already have Emily and a child. Why

did you do this to me?"

Douglas looked at her and said, "Because you owe me."

Whitney went silent. Yeah, and I can never repay him.

Seeing her finally reacting, Douglas said, "And you need to repay your debt. Carry the baby to term."

Whitney had no idea how to respond. It felt like she was a homewrecker. "I…" She tried to say something, but not a

word could come out.

"Remember, you owe me," Douglas enunciated while staring at her.

Whitney felt like something was hammering away at her heart, and she shivered. Yeah, I owe him.

Douglas stopped pressing her. "I know you're pregnant now, so you don't have to hide. Just calm down and carry

the baby to term safely."

Whitney got really nervous. She looked at Douglas, then she said behind gritted teeth, "You're going to take it away

from me, aren't you?" She was scared that Douglas might take her child away right after she gave birth to it. That

would be the worst torture for her.

Douglas looked at the terrified woman, and he felt resigned. She really thinks so lowly of me, huh?
