Se connecterSitting in the corridor waiting alone, a pregnant woman came up and struck up a conversation with me."How many months along are you?""Three months.""Three months already, aren't it painful to terminate?""It's not suitable to have the baby, there's no such thing as painful or not."I said indifferently.She placed her hand on my leg in a comforting manner, expressing sympathy."It's okay, you're still young, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future."I looked at her with gratitude and nodded with a smile.Yes, I'm still young, there will be opportunities.Once this surgery is over, it's time to end things with Lamar.I thought this to myself and walked towards the operating room with a steady gait.I was about to step in when my phone started vibrating frantically."Hello, Alexandra, Mr. Stafford has been in a car accident!""Is it serious? Which hospital?""It's at the People's Hospital, I don't know the specifics, but he fell into a coma on the spot."I hung up the pho
I personally arranged Lamar's schedule.He should have been sitting in the meeting room signing a contract with the client at this time.After rubbing for a while, my legs were no longer numb.Lamar looked at me with concern, "Can you still walk, do you want me to carry you?""I read online that pregnant women are prone to numb legs."I didn't speak, stood up directly, and stepped on him hard, walking forward with vigor.Lamar didn't get angry, just followed behind me, calling out "Slow down."When we got to a less crowded place, I suddenly stopped and turned around.Lamar didn't expect my move and looked at me unexpectedly."Lamar, I'll tell you one last time, I don't want this child.""...Was that why you were crying before?"Lamar lowered his thin eyelids and asked me in a low voice.I wanted to tell him it wasn't, but I instinctively fell silent.Lamar nodded slowly.It was more like muttering to himself than answering me."We don't have to, we don't have to.""As long as you're h
"Have you discussed it and really decided not to keep it?"The doctor repeatedly confirmed with me.I didn't feel like explaining my relationship with Lamar to him and just nodded in agreement.The doctor pushed his glasses."So, would you like to have the procedure now or schedule another time?"I looked at my watch, it was almost two in the afternoon."Next Sunday.""Okay."After setting the time for the surgery, I went to the front desk to check out.The expenses had already been settled by Lamar, and I just signed my name.I was planning to take a rideshare directly to the company to continue working.As soon as I opened my phone, I saw a screen full of WeChat messages.Without exception, they were all from my mother.I glanced through them, still the same old stories.It's nothing but my dad losing money in card games again, unable to pay off gambling debts and being chased and beaten in the streets.I tugged at the corner of my mouth and directly called back."Alexandra, I've fi
"You're silly, the cake is smashed on the ground.""Hehe, it's okay, I'll make it for you again!"We got together like this.Lamar started school a year earlier, and I started a year later.Although we were in the same grade, I was two years older than him.Lamar used to like to call me sister very much.When we were in college, every time we quarreled, and I was angry with Lamar.He would come up and hold me with a cheeky face, calling me "sister" in my ear.Until my earlobes turned red and I lost all my temper.Later, when we started our business and the company's capital chain was about to go bankrupt that day.Lamar was also squatting in the corner, his eyes red, asking me."What should we do, sister?"My tongue was bitter, and I couldn't speak, so I had to hold him in my arms.Repeating over and over again."It will get better, it will all get better."Later, everything really got better.We are no longer in the original predicament, but we can never go back to the past.I have a
Lamar thought I was jealous.He smiled, trying to touch my head, but I dodged.Just then, the nurse came in, and we fell into silence again.After a while, Lamar spoke."Alexandra, have the baby, and we'll get married next month."I irritably rubbed my hair."It's not a question of getting married or not.""It's that you don't love me at all.""You just said we're not even in a relationship, but now it's just because of a child, and you've changed. You're young and wealthy; if you really want to find someone to marry and have a child, there should be plenty of people lining up, right? Why do you have to insist on me?"Lamar seemed to be wronged by what I said.His eyes were a little red, and his voice was hoarse."Sister... How could I not love you?"Sister.Since I broke up with Lamar three years ago, he hasn't called me that anymore.I subconsciously reached out to touch his head, just as he had sought comfort from me countless times before."Lamar, don't do this."When I spoke agai
The closer the relationship, the more one knows the other's weaknesses.Lamar's words were like a sharp sword, instantly tearing apart the peace we maintained on the surface and stabbing straight into the festering wound in my heart.Those bad memories flooded into my mind, and my guilt instantly turned into anger.I stood up and looked down at him, "It wasn't clear who was begging and following me like a dog after we broke up!"Lamar was indeed angry, his face flushed, angered by me."Alexandra Harmon, I'm warning you not to go too far."He held back his anger, lowering his eyebrows and staring at me darkly.I took a step back in fear, then realized we were no longer together."I'm telling the truth, Lamar, if you really don't like me, just let me go.""I'll transfer the money to your account; these three years we've been together will be my compensation for you back then.""After we separate, we can still be friends, okay?"I tried to calm down and communicate with him.As a result,
