âYouâre truly dreaming!â Aaron snapped at her mercilessly. âHe only has Yun Shishi in his heart. He doesnât touch you because he already has another â that is why he is not interested in you at all!â
âShut up!â She cut him off furiously. âHe is only toying with her; do I not know men? He is only temporarily interested in her. After their honeymoon phase, when the novelty wears off, and his mistaken feelings for her fade away, he will certainly cast her aside! Do you think that a nobody like her can replace me?â
He gave a disheartened laugh and warned, âHave you forgotten? Need I remind you about who is the real Young Madam Mu? What you have in your hands today was all taken away from Yun Shishiââ
âSHUT UP!â Her voice cracked at her screech. She raised her hand and swung it at him.
A loud smack was heard as a vicious slap landed on his face.
Aaron did not stop there, however. âIf you didnât steal her jade back then, you wouldnât be brought into the Mu family by mistake, and the person beside Mu Yazhe now would be her instead, and not you! Mu Wanrou, why canât you accept the reality even now? Heâs never been yours from the start. If he isnât meant for you, itâs no use for you to insist that he is!â
âShut up! Shut UP! SHUT UP!â
She blocked off her ears hysterically. Realizing that he had no intention of stopping his ridicule, her hand flew up to slap him anew, but he managed to stop her with a firm grip.
âWanrou, letâs say that you want to abort the child. Tell me, how are you going to accomplish that? How do you intend to cover up the secret abortion of the child?â
He revealed his pearly white teeth through a humorless smile. âDonât forget; as vast as the capital is, all the medical centers here have someone acting as an informer to the Mu family! Surely, you are clear on how influential the Mu family is, right? Are you planning to have it secretly aborted at a small clinic, then?â
She remained confounded for a while upon listening to his words.
How could she be unaware of the Musâ influence?
All medical centers within the capital had all sorts of connections with the Mu family.
However, it would be too risky for her to leave the capital.
Only a visit to a small clinic could cover up the tracks of her abortion now.
Thinking up to this, she uttered, âAs long as I can abort the baby, will it matter if the clinic is small or big?â
âAre you this willing to degrade yourself?!â He had completely lost his temper. âThis is our child. It has a life!â
âFine! Iâll keep it, then!â She paused, but before a relieved smile could fully form on his face, she continued emotionlessly, âIâll keep it as a child of the Mu family!â
âWhat did you say?!â He hurled this question at her in shock and rage.
âIf this child canât be aborted at all, then Iâll stay to inform Mu Yazhe that it belongs to him!â
âYouâre too naïve! Do you think that he is a fool? Do you think that you can hide the childâs identity from him forever?!â
He could not help but mock her innocence and naivety.
âThis has got nothing to do with you!â She responded to him indifferently. âAnyway, itâs not possible for me to take off with you! Do you think Iâll be entirely safe once I elope with you?! Do you think that the Mu family will let us off? Who exactly is the naïve one here?!â
He was about to voice his opinion further, but she interrupted him solemnly. âStop. I donât want to listen to your nonsense anymore! Youâd better shut up about this before I make up my mind! I donât want anyone else to know of my pregnancy!â
