Mommy 319
Chapter 319 Andrew nodded and said with a smile, "Whatever you like." Adeline's face lit up with happiness, and her eyes seemed like a sea of shining stars. Andrew wanted to put the apartment in her name, but she refused. She even said that it was inappropriate for her to accept such a valuable gift before they got married. Andrew chuckled and did not take it seriously. Valuable? It was just an apartment. Even if it was not cheap, it was nothing to him. Therefore, he assumed that Adeline thought the "gift" was too cheap to take seriously. No matter how nice women's words sounded, they were vain deep down. Adeline was not the first woman Andrew had kept. When Andrew had just come of age, he had kept a few innocent-looking girls. Without knowing who he was, those girls couldn't wait to throw themselves at him when they saw him spending lavishly. Those girls demanded designer clothes, bags, diamonds, luxuries, mansions, and luxury cars. Even when they broke up, those girls did not forget to ask for sky-high compensation and breakup fees. However, Adeline was different. Andrew had transferred hundreds of thousands of dollars to her every month, and she could buy all kinds of branded luxuries at will, but she didn't care at all. She still wore her simple dresses. She didn't wear designer clothes or expensive jewelry. Even when he planned to buy her a villa, she refused to accept it. In the end, she chose an ordinary apartment and even refused to put it in her name. So, although she lived in the apartment, he was the property owner. She never got or asked for anything from him other than the door number she wanted. Andrew was once suspicious of her motives. When he checked the bank card he gave her, he was shocked to find that apart from the daily expenses for food and clothing, there were hardly any other
expenses. The rest of the money he gave her every month was left untouched in the card. 'What's she thinking? 'Isn't she with me for my money?' Andrew had always been generous to his partners. He could buy Adeline anything she wanted if she asked. But she didn't seem to want anything. Most of the time, it was he who wanted to give her something, but she refused to accept it. All she ever asked him for was a door number. 'A door number? 'What could she do with it?' Andrew found it amusing and then forgot about it. He didn't take it seriously at all. Having been to the apartment many times, he knew his way there but never once noticed the door number she had chosen until now when she left... He stood at the door in a daze, his eyes fixated on the already dusty door number plate. '1520... '1520?' Andrew had a moment of enlightenment. The number in Mandarin was pronounced -Want me to love you! Andrew bought the apartment as a gift to Adeline. She refused to accept it but chose such a door number. Then she smiled at him and said, "I like this number." But was it the number, or the thought that was hidden in it, which she was too shy to say, that she liked? 'She wants me to love her...' Andrew's eyes turned red as he gritted his teeth, his jaw tightened. The neighbor was still muttering, "Adeline hasn't been in good health recently. She's sick and listless all day. A while ago, I met her retching downstairs. She said that she had been feeling nauseous and couldn't eat anything. I wanted to take her to the hospital, but she said she didn't
want to bother me. She took a taxi there on her own. When she came back, she was all smiles and told me that she was pregnant. And she gave me a bag of fruit. Who are you to her?" Turning his head, Andrew glanced at him and said, "I'm the baby's father." "So you're her boyfriend?" Surprised, the man asked in confusion, "Then why do I rarely see you here? I often see her alone, so I thought she was single! I didn't know she had a boyfriend until the day she told me she was pregnant! She also said she was going to discuss getting married early with her boyfriend so she could give birth to the baby. She left suddenly today. Did you... have a fight?" Andrew was in no mood to answer or listen. He picked up the key, opened the door, and hurried into the room. Everything in the apartment was the same as before as if nothing had changed. Andrew went to the sofa and saw a small patch of dried blood on the carpet. Did she bleed here last night?' Andrew felt empty inside, and his face went numb at once. He moved his eyes up the carpet and saw two things lying on the coffee table. His empty eyes suddenly became focused again. He lunged at the coffee table and held on to them so tightly that he nearly tore them. The thin letter and the carefully smoothed hospital report were placed in the center of the coffee table as if waiting for someone to pick them up. The letter was not sealed, but Andrew did not rush to open it. With a vague sense of foreboding, he unfolded the report carefully. As expected, it was Adeline's pregnancy report. The date... happened to be a week ago. It was also the day Andrew learned that he was going to marry Joy! The small ultrasound fetal image on the report, like a sharp thorn, pierced into his eye sockets. 'Is this... our baby?' Andrew stared blankly at it, his eyes turning blood red. Cautiously, he reached out to touch theNôvelDrama.Org content rights.
image of the fetus. As he unfolded the letter, the familiar lines of delicate writing came into his eyes. "Andrew, I'm leaving. I'm determined to leave you and this city. Maybe I'll never come back. I should have made it clear to you in person, but I didn't have the courage to talk to you face-to-face... I wanted to call you, but I couldn't find my phone. So, I could only say goodbye to you this way. "I don't know if you'll see this letter because I'm not sure if you'll come here to see me. If you come, please... pretend that we've never met! I'll forget you, and please forget me... "Don't worry, I'll abort the baby. Even though I was so happy to have it, I couldn't be so selfish. You don't want the baby because it's a liability to you. I don't want my beloved baby to be born into an incomplete family and even a hostile environment. Abortion may be a better choice for you and the baby!
