“Deirdre!” The man hugged Julia, and he sounded anxious. The faint fragrance he wore and the smell of his sweat tickled her nostrils, but she did not find it disgusting.Julia was stunned for a moment, but Tobey suddenly realized something. He released Julia and asked with a frown. “Who are you? Why are you inside my house?”“I…” It was only then Julia came around to her senses. She realized that he was Deirdre’s boyfriend, and her face turned red. Biting her lips, she said, “I’m Julia. I’m Deirdre’s student.”“Julia?” Tobey knew who she was, but he did not have time to talk to her now. “Where is Deirdre?”Deirdre came out of the room. “Tobey…”Tobey hastily went up to her and grabbed her hand. “Deirdre, quickly! We need to go now.”“Go now?” Deirdre became nervous again. “What happened?”“Some strangers are wandering in the neighborhood. I think they’re Brendan’s men, and they’re looking for you,” Tobey said sternly. “We need to go now and find another safer place.”“This is a

After the doctor finished checking Deirdre, he looked at Tobey with a frown and asked, “Are you the father?”Before Tobey could say anything, the doctor gritted his teeth and said, “You’re an adult. How can you be so irresponsible? She had a miscarriage once. Do you know how hard it's for her to get pregnant again? And you want her to terminate her pregnancy? Do you know that she won’t have another baby anymore in the future if she has an abortion this time?”Deirdre’s eyes widened, and her lusterless pupils trembled. Tobey was equally stunned as well. “What do you mean by she can’t have any kids anymore in the future? Are you sure about it?” “Yes, I'm sure of it. There's nothing wrong with the report. You should thank God that you can have this baby. Your body can't handle another abortion.” Tobey clenched his fists. He grabbed Deirdre’s hand and said, “Let’s go, Deirdre.”In the next second, Deirdre withdrew her hand from Tobey’s grasp. Even though her face was pale, her voi

After Deirdre finished speaking, the nurse called her name. She rose to her feet and walked by, using the wall as her support. Only then did the woman realize that Deirdre was blind, and she was left gawking.After Deirdre walked for a while, she turned around and said, “Oh yeah, the man you saw just now… He’s not the baby’s father.” By the time Tobey returned, Deirdre was already inside the operating room. He handed the heating pad to Deirdre. Both of them listened to the nurse as she briefed them through the dos and don’ts during or after the operation. After Deirdre was ready, she lay on the bed. After that, Deirdre was transferred to the operating table. She did not know if she was affected by the surroundings or if it was because of her own feelings, but she felt cold.The nurse said apathetically and coldly, “Take off your trousers.” Tobey had already gone out of the operating room, so she should not feel embarrassed anymore. However, for some reason, she felt awkward.

Doesn’t he know the best why I can’t keep the baby?’If he could just let her go, then…Deirdre turned her face sideways. Brendan looked at her, his pupils trembling with emotions. After a short while, the emotions in his eyes melted away. Deirdre hated him to the bone, but it did not matter. As long as she was with him, he did not care if she loved or hated him. “Deirdre! Deirdre!” Tobey rushed toward the car and smacked the windows, shattering the silence in the car. “Don’t go with him! I’ve already called the cops! They’ll be here very soon!”Deirdre was stunned.Brendan’s face sank as he said coldly, “Deirdre, I really want to let him go, but he’s just like an annoying bug that refuses to leave me alone.”“No…” Deirdre’s voice was shaking.“Start the car,” Brendan ordered the driver.Tobey was trying to open the door, and he fell to the ground when the car began to move.“Tobey!” Deirdre shouted hysterically, her face full of tears. She smacked the window several time

Deirdre jerked her head up when she heard what Brendan said. Unfortunately, she could not see the expression on Brendan’s face. After a while, she scoffed. “Brendan, do you think it’s fun playing me like this?”She might have believed in him if he had said the same thing to her five years ago. She would have been so happy that she could not fall asleep and that she would feel that she was the happiest woman in the world. However, after everything that happened…She just felt a surge of chill coursing through her body.“I—”“That’s enough.” Deirdre lowered her head, her face emotionless. She was too exhausted to continue this farce with Brendan. “What do you want from me? Just tell me honestly.”‘If I give him what he wants, he’ll let me go, right?’Brendan could not see through her expression either. It was also because of the apathetic expression on Deirdre's face that he felt a sting in his heart.She did not look happy when he said he loved her. Instead, she avoided him like
