Chapter 202
Coralie ran to the washroom and retched for a long time before she realized that she might
be...pregnant.
However, according to the date, she should have been on her period those two days. Did not morning
sickness only strike on the second month?
Even if she was pregnant, it was probably a month at most. How did she experience morning sickness
so early?
Coralie gargled. When she returned to the room, Houston and Jasper had already left.
It was what they were.
Coralie did not want to care about it anymore. She ran to the pharmacy nearby, bought a pregnancy
test stick, and then tried it out in a public toilet.
As expected...
That child came at the most unfortunate time...
Coralie stared blankly at the two red lines, at a loss.
After pondering, she sent a message to Josephine on WhatsApp, asking for a chat with her after work.
After all, among all her friends, Josephine was the only one with children.
Coralie waited at the door at Josephine's office.
After she got off work, the two of them went to a cafe.
"Why are you being so secretive?"
From the looks of it, Josephine seemed to have been living a good life recently.
However, to make certain, Coralie asked, "You and Andrew are doing okay, right? Is it okay if you go
back a little late?"
Coralie didn't want Andrew to blame Josephine again because of her.
Josephine knew that Coralie was concerned about her, so she nodded and said, "Yes. Don't worry."
Hearing that, Coralie was relieved. She sat forward, drew closer to Josephine and then whispered, "I'm
pregnant."
"Ah? Congratulations!"
Josephine was quite delighted.
"I haven't finished speaking yet. But Skylar and I divorced."
Coralie said in a low voice.
"What?" Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Long story."
Coralie briefly told Josephine about all the incidents, including her promise to marry the son of Watson
Group in exchange for their investment in Skyton Corporation.
Hearing that, Josephine was stunned, "Are you filming? How could something like this happen..."
Marrying someone else for the sake of Skylar, and then realized that she was pregnant after deciding
to marry another person.
Not everyone would encounter something like that.
"Alas, so what should I do?"
Coralie did some calculation. If not mistaken, she was pregnant from the time when Skylar was drunk.
"Of course you have to give birth to the child."
"But I'm going to get married to the son of a big family. No matter how old or ill he is, who would want to
raise the child of another man?"
Coralie was certain that a huge family have huge pride.
No matter how open-minded foreigners were, it was impossible they would accept others' children. It
was even more impossible for them to accept Coralie for giving birth to a child of another man after
marrying Leonardo.
"You have to give birth to the child. The child is innocent!" Josephine viewed things from a mother's
perspective, "I always think that if it wasn't for Kevin, I would have divorced already. But I have never
regretted giving birth to Kevin, I enjoy his existence in my life."
When Josephine talked about Kevin, she had a satisfying smile on her face unconsciously.
"Coralie, there will always be a way, but if you lose this child, you will never have it again. Even if you
are pregnant next time, it will not be the same child. God brought this child to you for a reason."
When Josephine talked about children, she sounded like an auntie.
But those words touched Coralie.
"I am scared that I can't protect him..."
Coralie was only considered Houston's half-daughter. She couldn't count on Houston no matter how
huge of a trouble she would cause to the Watson family.
Rich people like that, if they intended to hurt the child, they would surely have a hundred or thousand
ways to do so. She wouldn't be able to stop them.
That was also the reason why Coralie's in a dilemma.
"What about you give birth to the child and let my mother take care of him?"
"No, no."
If that was the case, it would be better to ask Hera for help rather than Josephine's parents.
However, that was also a bad idea. After all, the existence of the child would cause a lot of trouble.
After all, besides the Watson family, the Holland family might harm the child too. If Skylar was to marry
Valerie, the child's safety at stake.
The more Coralie thought about it, the more scared she became. Her brain was a chaos, "I can't give
birth to this child. I can't protect him at all!"
She only had herself. However, those potential enemies had their families to back them up.
"Coralie, maybe no one will hurt the child at all."
"What if there's someone who will? How could risk my own child?"
"But how could you deprive your child of the rights to come to this world?"
Josephine was talking from a mother's point of view.
Coralie, on the other hand, was from the perspective of a daughter-in-law who had been oppressed by
a rich and powerful family.
"I..."
Seeing that Coralie was still in a dilemma, Josephine stood up and said, "Coralie, I promise that you
will regret it if you get an abortion. Don't do anything you will regret."
After they met, Coralie faltered.
She had a strong desire to keep that child. She was afraid that she would regret it.
......
Two weeks later, Coralie did an ultrasound. When she saw the small dot in her womb, she could feel a
tiny human growing inside her, little by little.
However, In spite of the joy the tiny life brought, Coralie felt uneasy.
She didn't know how to tell the Zac family or the Watson family about that.
She even had a crazy idea to postpone the wedding for ten months. After giving birth to the baby, she
would hide him and keep it from everyone...
After Coralie went through the ultrasound, she went back to work overtime at the company before
going home.
When she arrived at the community, it was already past 11 o'clock at night.
"Coralie."
When Coralie was about to enter the corridor, she was stopped by a man in front of her.
She knew whose that voice was.
"Howard, I won't call the police. You'd better leave now."
Coralie put her hands down, unconsciously covering her belly.
"Leave? Coralie, you made me who I am, jobless and homeless. Even my wife ran away with someone
else. Now you want me to leave?"
As Howard said that, he grabbed Coralie's collar, lifting her.
His gaze was murderous.
"Howard, you made you who you are. It has nothing to do with me."
Coralie was pregnant. After the last time, she knew that her child was very fragile at that phase. She
could not afford to have any accidents.
Hence, she tried not to provoke Howard.
