She darted her eyes toward Old Madam Young. The latter felt a shudder pass through her too.The both of them arrived at the same possibility at the same time. Could it be possible that Suzy was pregnant?โShe was set-up by Rachel to sleep with

Perhaps family love and joy were the two things a person yearned for the most at old age.Suzy reckoned Old Madam Young was only treating her this well because she was carrying a baby of the Young bloodline.She would probably be equally delighted if any other woman was pregnant with Seanโs child.A feeling of disappointment washed over Suzy. She wished Old Madam Young did not only like her because of the baby.Everyone in the residence treated her like a princess. She began to wonder if Sean would be as elated if he learned about the baby.The thought of it filled her with shame. What happened between them was an accident.

โWeโll tell the young master about this after the decisions are made. By doing so, we can save the baby as well as Young Master and Miss Williamsโ marriage.โThis idea would yield the best of both worlds, though at the cost of causing Suzy to feel wronged.โThis isnโt a bad idea, but will Christina agree? What about Jade? Will she give birth to Seanโs child without being given a proper title?โ Old Madam Young thought this was too unpredictable. โMost importantly, Sean will definitely disagree having Jadeโs baby as it would only affect his relationship with Christina.โโMiss Williams is a mother herself. Iโm sure sheโll understand your yearning for a grandchild. I think sheโll agree to your request.โAs for Jade, I can tell that she has feelings for Young Master, hence persuading her to keep the baby shouldnโt be difficult. Besides, Young Master listens to Miss Williams. Heโll agree to keep the child if she convinces him.โOld Madam Young pondered this for a long time but failed to

Things would be easy as long as she agreed to the plan too.Old Madam Young went looking for Suzy with an elated heart. Christina had no idea Michael was present. She had just hung up the phone when she saw him standing behind her. His face revealed a complicated expression that she could not quite place. โChristina, please donโt marry Sean, alright?โโWho are you to tell me what to do?โ She instinctively argued.โI overheard your conversation with Old Madam Young just now that he impregnated another woman. You donโt have to do this to yourself. Marrying him is not your only choice.โโI donโt feel like that at all. On the other hand, I feel like Iโm taking advantage of Sean by marrying him!โโBut Sean now has a child with another woman. Donโt you mind this at all? That he has be

You b*tch, youโre worse than a wh*re. Iโm your man, after all!โAfter being insulted by Tommy with various swear words, Winona got angry. โTommy, I despised you since back then. You took advantage of me being pregnant to rape me every night as I was unable to run away. I havenโt even sued you! Are you even a man?!โBoth of them were at each otherโs throats, and Tommy was furious too.Back then, Winona was gorgeous while Tommy was just a gangster.

Thus, it was not something challenging for him.Tommy pressed his lips on hers and gnawed on them, making her feel so disgusted that she almost vomited.Winona kept on struggling. She bit and choked him, but how could she fight with him? Tommy had been in jail for so many years, and finally, he could have sex with a woman. How could he let go of Winona?

โJust a little while ago.โ Sean came closer. โChristina, we need to talk.โShe nodded and followed him to the garden. He helped her to get comfortable on the bench. โDo you believe in fate?โShe shook her head, unsure where this was leading. โI didnโt either as Iโm a firm believer that hard work always pays off. But now I do.โHe looked her in the eye. โIโve been lost and struggled a lot since that incident, unsure how to face you. After considering this seriously for the past few days, Iโve finally mustered enough courage to meet you again.โA sigh escaped her lips. โSorry, Sean. Itโs all my fault.โโNo!

Matthew, of course!โ Ariel glared at Christina.โI say whateverโs on my mind, unlike you, who always keep everything to yourself and get stuck in dilemmas.

Is this really the best thing for him? Will he be happy?โAriel questioned after a brief silence, โChristina, let me ask you this. Who do you care for more?

We canโt do as we wish.โโAre we actually going to pay her off then?โ Ariel asked, โI think giving her money isnโt going to put an end to this. Sheโs certainly going to keep threatening for more!โMichael scoffed. โWhy should we give her money? She can go

โI will, Dad, donโt worry.
