What's more, I never imagined that he would dare to have the cheek to ask me to join their company and help them make money!
"Shane, you once said we’d get married if I got pregnant. Did you mean it?"
My fingers clenched around the pregnancy test report in my pocket. I lifted my gaze and watched him carefully because I did not want to miss any reaction on his face.
He stiffened slightly and lowered his eyes to the floor with a hoarse voice he said, "I … I also want to have a child with you, but the doctor said that your body is not suitable for pregnancy. It's not that I don't want to be responsible, it's just for your own good!”
The paper in my hand crumpled as my grip tightened. A sharp ache spread through my chest, my eyes stinging. I lowered my head because I did not want him to see my tears.
"Alright," I said.
For my sake? What a joke.
For years, everyone said Shane adored me. That he cherished me so much like I was his treasure. Every single day, he held my hand and whispered his love for me even in his drunken stupors.
