Chapter 1031

Author: Sienna Yates
The financier, who had been ready to join the fray moments earlier, gulped hard at the sight before him and instinctively stumbled back a few steps.

Blood spread across the glossy marble floor in a dark, shocking bloom.

Richard's pupils contracted sharply as he barked for help.

"Someone! Call a doctor! Now!"

Footsteps pounded down the hallway, chaos erupting through the office.

Sharon, however, stood motionless—like a detached observer watching a scene unfold that had nothing to do with her

    Thomas picked up a few childish toys from the shelf, examining them carefully. "It's fine—we'll get more when the time comes."Since they didn't yet know whether the baby would be a boy or a girl, he bought one set of items for each.Seeing that she couldn't convince him otherwise, Sharon let him be. She turned to pick out items for the baby herself.As she shopped, she realized she had unconsciously filled three full carts. Resigned, she simply gave herself free rein.With so many items, carrying them home was impossible. They left their address with the store, letting the staff deliver everything directly.Sharon, still not fully recovered, collapsed into bed as soon as she got home.When she woke up, she saw Thomas sitting by the window, pen in hand, writing something.The sunset painted the sky in crimson, casting a warm glow across the room. Under this soft light, Thomas's sharp features appeared unusually gentle.He seemed so absorbed in his work that he didn't notice Sha

    Sharon turned to Dr. Celio. "How did you know?"Dr. Celio froze for a moment, then stammered, "I… I just guessed. I wanted to remind you, in case… in case you might have overlooked it."Sharon's impression of Dr. Celio had always been positive. Last time, she had noticed Dr. Dole acting strangely and had warned her. If not for Dr. Celio, Sharon might still be deceived by Thomas.She lowered her voice. "Thank you for the reminder, Dr. Celio. I'll be careful."Dr. Celio hesitated before asking, "Does… Thomas know about this?"Sharon nodded. "Yes, he does."After another pause, she asked cautiously, "Then… what have you decided? What will you do about the child?""We've decided to keep the baby."Dr. Celio knew she was overstepping. Their relationship wasn't close enough to discuss something so personal. Realizing this, she smiled wryly. "No wonder Thomas agreed to the hypnosis. The child's arrival will certainly help with his recovery… congratulations, Sharon."They chatted a wh

    During the hypnosis, no one could remain in the room except Dr. Dole and Thomas.Even Dr. Celio had to step out.Thomas stood still, unmoving.Dr. Celio glanced at Sharon and gave her a look of encouragement.She lowered her gaze and quietly said, "Go ahead."Thomas's dark eyes searched hers. "Sharon, I'll ask you one more time… are you sure you want me to undergo hypnosis?"Sharon nodded. "Yes."He studied her deeply for a long moment. "I understand."Then he turned and walked toward the room, each step slowed in her mind as if time itself had stretched. Every footfall pressed against her chest.The door closed behind him in slow motion, the thud resonating like a warning.In an instant, Sharon's mind went blank. Perhaps, after this, he would forget everything. Forget the time they had shared, the joy and the pain, the depth of his love for her.She slowly closed her eyes.The clock in the empty living room ticked. It was so quiet here she felt she could hear her heart fro

    Thomas's proposal cut through the haze like a shaft of light. It felt like there was no better solution. She and Thomas couldn't remain in this stalemate forever.Sharon nodded. "Alright."Thomas promised her that once her body fully recovered, they could proceed with the hypnosis.A week later, Sharon was discharged from the hospital. During her stay, both Carmen and Carter came to visit.Carmen couldn't help thinking that Thomas was not only handsome but also brilliant. Any child he fathered would surely be both beautiful and intelligent. As for the Ferrero family's hereditary conditions… both she and Sharon tacitly agreed not to mention them. Worrying now wouldn't change anything—perhaps the child wouldn't inherit them at all.Carmen was in high spirits knowing Sharon was pregnant.Carter, on the other hand, felt a complex mix of emotions. As a man, he knew that once Sharon gave birth to this child, even if Thomas truly forgot, their ties could never be completely severed.Be

    "Of course," Carmen said, "my recommendation that you keep the child is entirely from Thomas's perspective. From your side, Sharon, having a child out of wedlock will invite criticism—both for you and for the baby."And more importantly, the future is uncertain. The chances may be small, but there's always the possibility that he could fall for someone else or marry another woman for some reason. So this remains a difficult choice and a heavy decision for you."She glanced toward the doorway. Earlier, when she had come to see Sharon, Sharon had sent Thomas out."And," Carmen continued, "if you decide to terminate the pregnancy now, Thomas is unlikely to agree."Sharon asked softly, "Does Thomas like children?"Carmen shook her head. "Honestly, I don't know. He never spoke about it before. But he's always been patient with both your son and with Matty. That suggests he probably does care for children."When Thomas found out you were pregnant… did he seem happy?"Sharon nodded.C

    Lately, Thomas had been completely consumed by preparations. Now that Sharon was carrying their child, all of that planning was no longer necessary.The gentle aroma of porridge lingered in the air.Thomas's gaze burned like a fierce flame, as if he could scorch her through and through.Sharon could no longer bear it. She opened her eyes again.Thomas tilted his head slightly and asked, "You're awake? Sharon… do you want to sleep a little longer?"Sharon no longer felt sleepy. "No."He picked up the bowl from the table and tested the porridge's temperature. "Since you're not going to sleep, eat a little first."He brought the spoon to her lips. Though Sharon had little appetite, thinking of the child inside her, she still took a bite.Her stomach wasn't strong. After eating about a third, she couldn't continue.Thomas didn't force her. Instead, he quietly finished the rest of the porridge himself.Seeing this, Sharon asked, "You haven't eaten anything all this time?""Mhm,"

    "Carter could barely keep up as he scrambled to clean up the mess Nate kept landing him in," Wendy added.Thomas frowned. "But isn't Julliard one of Carter's closest friends? If he can betray a close friend, can he really be trusted?"Wendy shook her head. "Julliard has endured them for years. It'

    Sharon sensed something hurtling toward her.Her bodyguards had been busy holding back the surging crowd and never anticipated anyone would throw something her way. For a moment, they failed to react.Just as the egg was about to smash against Sharon's face, a figure suddenly stepped in front of h

    Johanna noticed Thomas's gaze lingering on her earrings. She smiled. "What is it?"Thomas replied, "Your earrings look familiar."She brushed her fingers lightly against the pair and said with a soft laugh, "Victoria has the same set. We had them custom-made together."He had indeed seen somethin

    The call connected almost instantly, and a man's voice came through the line."Hello, who's speaking?"His voice was clear and steady, youthful, even pleasant—nothing remotely unhinged about it. Not the slightest trace of madness.Strangely, Lex felt a flicker of familiarity. He couldn't place it
