Semua Bab Kindly Sign the Divorce Papers, Curt: Bab 281 - Bab 290

It would be Curtis' responsibility to bear if something happened to Wendy during her miscarriage. He had already hurt her once. He couldn't do it again. She was only 18, after all.At that moment, Curtis felt conflicting emotions deep down.Wendy seized the chance and said, "How about I deliver the baby without anyone noticing, Mr. Crosby? Don't worry, I won't let Ms. Stone find out about it."You can send me to somewhere where nobody knows me. I'll take care of myself and my baby there. I won't cause more trouble for you then."Wendy knew that Curtis would never let her have the baby. Surely, he would give her money out of guilt for the abortion.Even if he wanted her to keep the baby, she could just have a miscarriage by accident after that. She was willing to do anything as long as she could get the money."Let me think about it."Curtis was hesitating. He wasn't someone who wouldn't take responsibility for others.If he took responsibility for Wendy, he would be letting Mar

"You can hold yourself back, but I wouldn't be able to do so. It's time to eat already, right?" Curtis said as he lifted Margot off his lap.He then took her hand and brought her out of the study.Margot was speechless.Was he really holding himself back from touching her just because she was pregnant? Why did she feel like Curtis had something on his mind?Margot's heart clenched painfully when she recalled his sudden expression of disgust when he avoided her earlier.The reassurance and sense of security she recently gained had completely vanished.…During mealtime, Curtis told Margot, "You can head to bed first later. Gabriel called me over for some matters."Margot was already losing her sense of security. She got even more suspicious when she heard his words."Okay, you can go," she agreed readily.Curtis looked up at her. He continued as if he was afraid that she wouldn't believe him."You can come along with me if you're not tired. We'll just be next door.""No need

Margot was even more afraid that Curtis was having an affair."I'm not sick of you, so you shouldn't be overthinking. Let's continue eating instead," Curtis said as he sat down beside her and fed her some food.Margot stared at Curtis and avoided his spoonful of food.She asked unrelentingly, "Is it really not because you're sick of me?"Curtis looked determined as he replied, "How would I get sick of you? I have always wanted a baby with you. I can't even pamper you enough."Margot said, "You shouldn't sleep in the other bedroom from now onward then!"Curtis replied, "Alright."Margot only took a bite reluctantly after hearing his reply.Curtis continued feeding her while asking, "Do you want to go shopping today? I can go with you."Margot replied, "I don't want to. Can we stay at home instead?""Okay," he replied, complying with everything she said.…Chester brought Wendy elsewhere and arranged for her to stay in an upscale neighborhood.Before he left, he told Wendy,

Curtis immediately ended the call and quickly went over to ask her, "What's wrong?"Margot was frowning as she felt wronged deep down.She looked at him and questioned, "Why didn't you sleep with me again? Who are you calling at this hour? Are you having an affair?"Margot had a nightmare and woke up abruptly. She panicked when she saw that Curtis wasn't beside her.She couldn't believe that he was avoiding her for a call. Was it a woman that was calling him so late at night?At that moment, the fear in Margot's heart intensified.Curtis said, "Don't overthink, Margot. I suddenly remembered I had some work matters, so I called Chester for a short discussion."He was afraid that she wouldn't believe him. He then opened his call records and passed it to her.He said, "You can have a look. It really is Chester."Margot glanced over at the phone. She only stopped fretting when she saw that there was indeed only a call with Chester."I really thought you were having an affair," sh

Annoyed, Curtis slammed his fist angrily on the steering wheel. He spent the night in his car.Upon remembering that Margot was now pregnant, he drove back home during the day. He walked to the room to check on her.Margot was curled up on the bed. She was biting on her finger as she stared blankly at a corner.Curtis stood by the bed and saw that she was awake.He said, "I've called in sick for you. You don't need to go back to the university during this time. You can stay at home and rest up."Margot ignored him. Curtis saw that she seemed alright. He then went to wash himself up.He went down for breakfast after he was done washing up.He instructed Doris and said, "Take care of Margot. Don't let her go out during this time."Doris seemed confused and asked, "Not even for her classes?"Curtis replied, "She won't be attending them."He ate a little before getting up to leave.Doris saw that Margot had not come down the entire morning. She then brought breakfast up for her.
