Chapter 584 “I have the right to know!” His eyes turned red as he complained, “you can’t change the fact that I’m the father even if you don’t want to admit it!”
“You know now, don’t you?” She responded casually.
“I do know now, but I didn’t hear it from you! Show me the lab reports!” He demanded.
“There’s no lab report.” Her wrist was beginning to hurt from his grip and she reached down to pull his fingers away. “Let go of35 me!” “Why isn’t there a lab report?!” He loosened the grip but did not fully let go. He simply moved his hand up her wrist and continued to retrain her.
Unable to lie while being confronted by Elliot, she explained, “I did the test in Bridgedale so they only sent me aee message.”
“Show me the message!” He commanded, fully intending to persist until he had seen the message for himself.
Just then, Mike and the children walked out of the dining room and spotted6f Elliot.
“What is he doing here?” Layla murmured.
“Your mom cried this morning, but I don’t know why…” Mike68 said.
Hayden scowled. “What’s wrong with Mom?”
Mike shrugged. “I don’t know! She won’t tell me even if I asked, but she seems normal just now when we were eating. Maybe it’s not a big7a deal!”
As they were talking, Avery opened the door and stepped into the yard with Elliot.
Mike took the children back to the dining room, while Elliot followed Avery into the mansion. She picked her phone from the coffee table and opened the message to show him.
After reading the message, he lowered his gaze at her abdomen and asked, “why did you go to the hospital today?”
“I had an amniocentesis.”
“What for?”
“To confirm if there’s really something wrong with the baby,” reluctant to continue the topic, she responded quickly, “the results will be out in two weeks, so you can come ask me about it two weeks later.”
Elliot looked up and spotted three pairs of eyes watching them from the dining room, so he
grabbed Avery by the wrist and took her upstairs.
“What are you doing?!” Avery pulled her hand away, not wanting to be alone with him.
Elliot hated being pushed away by Avery, but she did so frequently. He grabbed onto her wrist once again and as a punishment, he tightened his grip forcefully.
“I need to talk to you. Do you want them to hear everything?” He took a glance at her flushed face and led her upstairs.
They went into Avery’s bedroom once they were on the second floor.
Avery was reluctant to let Elliot into her bedroom, but Elliot didn’t consider himself a guest after entering her house and acted as though he was the owner of the mansion.
“Avery, if the results come back two weeks from now and show that the baby is still unhealthy, what do you plan on doing?” He closed the bedroom door and asked.
“Terminate the pregnancy,” she responded without hesitation.
His blood ran cold at her answer. “Didn’t you say that you are going to give birth to it even if something is wrong with it? Why are you changing your mind now?”
“Why should I give birth to it? So that it can suffer?” She was confused by his question.” Didn’t you desperately want me to get rid of it? Should you be pleased now?”
“That’s my child! I can’t possibly be happy to learn that it’s sick or killed!” Tears welled up in his eyes. “Did you have to hurt me, Avery?”
Wanting to cease the meaningless argument, she turned around and said, “leave if there’s nothing else you need! I need to rest now.”
“What’s with that 300 million?” He strode up to her to force her into facing him. “Where did you get that much money? Who did you borrow it from?”
“I didn’t borrow it from anyone.” She felt pressured when his towering figure loomed over her and couldn’t help but take a few steps back. “I earned it myself.”
