Chapter 877 - 873: Clash (2)
He must be feeling heartbroken too, after all, one is his father, connected by blood, no matter how deep the hatred, the blood ties can't be severed.
Because of her weakness, because of her love, she chose to forgive his mistakes and keep his secret until now. If she had a sense of justice and reported this secret to the police station, he would have to pay the price for it.
She has no sense of justice!
Thus, she was punished by heaven, carrying his child, only for him to demand her to abort it, and using her to meet Camila Ruiz.
"Please don't say anything, okay?" Joseph Colson lowered his head, gently gazing at her, speaking softly.
Crystal's heart softened, weakly leaning against his chest.
He is her calamity.
The car took them to a villa over five hundred pings in area.
Getting off the car, Joseph gently helped Crystal down, pointing to the courtyard and saying, "Do you like it here?"
Crystal glanced around the courtyard, then looked at Joseph, afraid to speak.
She had no idea what role she played in this villa again.
She's not very particular about places, as long as she can live, it's fine.
"Come, let's go in."
Joseph's eyes flickered with guilt and ruthlessness as he gently led Crystal inside. His gentle nature was what Crystal longed for the most, but at this moment, she felt it gave her a tingling sensation, always feeling unreal, unlike the sincere affection it once was.
There were people inside.
Several middle-aged women in white doctor's coats and young women in pink nurse uniforms stood in the hall, a man looking like a housekeeper approached respectfully and said to Joseph, "Young master, the people are here, they are all top obstetricians and nurses, ensuring Miss Crystal is safe."
Crystal immediately tensed up, the color on her face quickly faded, she realized something and wanted to leave.
"Crystal."
Joseph's large hand wrapped around her waist like a nimble snake, pulling her to sit on the sofa.
"This is your child!"
With a pale face, Crystal gripped Joseph's hand tightly, eyes red, tears starting to fall unchecked.
He took her from the hospital, only to have someone abort the child.
He had told her before to abort the child, she was reluctant, never imagining he would forcibly make her abort it. Does he really have no heart or love anymore, only filled with hatred?
This is their child, carrying their blood, can he be so ruthless?
"Crystal, you disobey."
Joseph gently wiped away Crystal's tears, his voice filled with coldness, chilling her through and through.
Crystal shook her head, tears falling chaotically.
Her heart at this moment was cut by a thousand knives.
For revenge, he ultimately had to sacrifice their child.
"Crystal, once my wish is fulfilled, we will marry, and we'll have children in the future." Joseph held her softly.
Crystal laughed, laughing so painfully.
Marry?
After hurting her, he could still say such a thing.
Is he planning to use Camila Ruiz to take revenge on Charles Colson, then discard her and marry Crystal? That kind of compensation, exchanged for the life of her child, could she ever feel at peace?
Recalling growing up in an orphanage, always hungry and cold, always fantasizing about parental love, always thinking once she grew up, she would pamper her child, give them a warm home, doubling the warmth she never had.
But now, she couldn't even protect her child.
"Joseph, I beg you, don't hurt the child, don't hurt him..." Tears fell like broken beads, Crystal cried bitterly.
She really didn't want to lose the child in her womb, even if he didn't want it, but she did, it's part of her flesh and blood.
He could be cruel, he could be heartless, but she couldn't!
Joseph released his hold on her, stood up from the sofa, walked to the window in the hall, turned his back to the crying Crystal, took out a cigarette, lit it, and smoked hard.
Crystal, like a tearful person, saw a glimmer of hope, quickly stood up, walked behind Joseph, pleading, "Please, don't hurt the child, I beg you, don't hurt the child."
Joseph remained silent, only smoking gloomily.
After a while, he turned around, signaling to the doctors and nurses, who understood and approached Crystal.
Crystal's heart died.
This was the man she loved!
With determination rare on her exquisitely pale face, not waiting for the doctors and nurses to approach, she crazily ran to the wall not far away, attempting suicide by crashing.
If she's useless, unable to protect her child, she'll die with the child!
"Ah!"
The crowd exclaimed.
"Crystal!"
In the infinite darkness she was sinking into, what she heard was Joseph's heart-wrenching and panicked shout.
Black Emperor Group.
Ivan Horne swaggered into the CEO's office on the sixtieth floor, surprisingly holding a large bouquet, and the bouquet was one Camila Ruiz had just thrown into the trash, with the note still attached.
From the moment he entered Black Emperor Group, curious eyes followed him, everyone was curious about who the esteemed heir of the Horne Family was bringing flowers to. Was there a woman in Black Emperor Group he fancied?
Ivan was unconcerned with others' curious eyes, handed the bouquet to the secretary, didn't even knock, barged into Jimmy Horne's office, threw the bouquet onto Jimmy's desk.
Jimmy looked up, coldly at Ivan.
Ivan leaned on the desk, half smiling, half mocking, said, "My dear cousin, why not take a look? These flowers are lovely, quite suitable for the beauty Camila."
At this, Jimmy's face darkened.
But he didn't burst out, instead following Ivan's lead, picked up the bouquet, took the note from it, and upon reading it, his face slowly seemed like a black kettle.
Joseph dared to send flowers to his future wife, openly competing for her? Was he out of his mind?
Did his previous warning have no effect?
Relaxed, Ivan sat across from him, teasing, "Billy, if you're not able to monopolize Camila, why not leave it to me? I promise to be a hundred times more effective than you."
