Chapter 232: The Secret

I don’t mean to think badly of Whitney. But I can’t help feeling scared as she sneers at me frequently.

I am so afraid that I have been avoiding her these days.

It’s Saturday, and Lawrence came to the Louis’.

Frances is not at home. Lawrence greets me and then goes upstairs to see Whitney.

I watch TV downstairs. After a while, I feel a little sleepy, so I go upstairs.

I can vaguely hear Whitney and Lawrence arguing.

Whitney’s voice is loud. She sounds angry.

My room is next to Frances’, and Whitney’s room is next to mine.

Although I close the door, I can clearly hear her roaring.

“Lawrence, I hate you. I hate Jane. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t lose my child!”

After a few seconds of silence, Lawrence says, “Whitney, stop it. If you hadn’t tried to push Jane that
day, it wouldn’t have ended up like this.”

...

There was a sound of something shattering. It seems that Whitney is throwing something.

“You mean, it’s my fault that I lost child? Lawrence, you are too ruthless. That’s also your child. How
can you...”

Whitney doesn’t finish her words. She is probably stopped by Lawrence. But what she said is like a
bomb exploding in my mind.



It’s not Frances’ child. So she cuckolds Frances?

I get out of bed, walked to the wall, and put my ear to it.

I don’t want to eavesdrop, but this news really shocks me.

Lawrence lowers his voice and says, “Whitney, I’m also sad to lose my child. But people have to bear
the consequences of their mistakes. You did go too far that day. Now, calm down. Anger does no good
to a pregnant woman.”

Pregnant?

I’m stunned. Didn’t Whitney lose the child?

“What did you say? Pregnant?” Whitney’s voice is also filled with shock.

I press my ears closer to the wall, afraid that I will miss something important.

“The baby is fine. I asked the doctor to tell them that you lost the child. As for the medicine you took, it’s
not for postpartum recovery. It’s for fetal protection.”

I don’t know if I should be happy or worried to hear this news.

Whitney is silent for a few seconds. Then she raises her voice and says, “No, I can’t keep this child! It’s
not Frances’ child! That night was just an accident. How can I bear your child? The person I love is
Frances! If he knows that this child is not his, then we will be over! No, I shouldn’t keep the child!”

Whitney has been heartbroken after losing her child, but now she wants to abort it. It’s hard for me to
understand. However, considering her mental illness, I feel it reasonable again.



“You can abort the child.” Lawrence sneers and says, “But you have to think about it. If I tell Frances
that you are pregnant with my child, what do you think he will do? I have arranged everything for you to
study abroad for a year. You will go abroad in a month and give birth to the child there. As long as we
don’t tell him, Frances won’t know about it. You like children so much. I’m sure you’ll keep it. “

“Whitney, you have no choice but to keep my child.”
