Chapter 914: Speak Out
"I might not be able to have children. I might never be able to have children in this lifetime!" Bai Xiao cried, shouting hoarsely into his ear, her sobs uncontrollable.
No moment had ever caused her more pain than this one. She knew—she knew she could never have a child.
In her past life, Shang Kaiwen had tried so many times but could never give her a descendant. He wanted her genes, yet was completely powerless.
Taking ovulation-stimulating injections and undergoing egg retrieval were such torturous processes. She could bear countless pains, but fate had bestowed upon her a special ability while taking away her right to be a mother.
Opening her eyes, she saw his restrained yet handsome face, his cheeks taut from the clenching of his jaw, a trace of frustration and helplessness flickering in his eyes.
He finally understood why Bai Xiao was so angry, what that faint unease lingering between them truly was.
An Zhiyuan quietly gazed back at her, raising his hand to caress her evasive eyes, unsure if he believed her words or was contemplating their truth.
After Bai Xiao spoke, her face flushed red, her eyes moist. She looked at him, but anxiety churned within her. She knew that no man would willingly accept a lifetime without his own child. She understood this was the fuse to the bomb, yet leaving it unspoken forever would weigh on her with guilt for the rest of her life.
