Chapter 148 - 146: Pregnant? [Update 1]
"That bitch, she brought it upon herself. I can’t let this child be born." Elia cried out to Hannah when she arrived.
"Are you brainless? This child belongs to your third brother. Even if it can’t be born, you can’t harm her. Otherwise, do you think your third brother will let you go?" Hannah, with more experience, thought further ahead than Elia.
"No! The child isn’t my third brother’s; it’s Henry’s. Before the exam, Maya didn’t come home; she was living with Henry." At this point, Elia was crying uncontrollably.
"Are you foolish? Just because she says it’s Henry’s doesn’t make it his. She’s deliberately provoking you to make you abort her child and drag you down, making you the scapegoat for this child." Hannah, in a few simple words, exposed Maya’s intentions.
"Mom! It’s not like that; I went to see Henry this morning. He also said the child is his, and he even said he wants to marry this bitch."
What Elia said confused Hannah, but seeing her daughter crying her heart out, she felt sorry. She thought, could Henry be telling the truth? If the child isn’t his, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to marry this woman, right?
Enough! Enough! These things were beyond her understanding, and she didn’t want to think about them anymore. In any case, no matter whose child it was, Elia shouldn’t resort to violence against her.
So, she held the sobbing Elia and comforted her, "If Henry wants to marry her, let him! There are plenty of men in the world. Why should we be stuck on one tree? We can just find another. Besides, he’s not the best."
Hearing her mother’s opportunistic words, Elia cried even more fiercely, broke away, and went to grab Maya, clutching her clothes while crying and screaming, "Give Henry back to me! Give Henry back to me!"
"Nonsense! What are you all doing?" At this moment, Old Master Spencer came in, looking at the undignified scene with a livid face.
Seeing this, Hannah immediately pulled Elia away and awkwardly explained, "Just two kids being childish, they’ll be fine."
"What did you just say on the phone? Who’s pregnant?" Old Master Spencer asked.
