A Call That Changed Her Entire Life novel Chapter 265

Emily finally woke up. Her eyes met Jacob's and his icy stare brought shivers down her spine.

"Emily Bai, you are pregnant." With a blank expression, he looked at her and said it, as if words were squeezed out of his mouth.

Pregnant?

She could hardly believe her ears, and unconsciously her eyes widened, "I'm pregnant? How come..."

Subconsciously, she reached for her belly; it was still flat, but she didn't expect that there was life lurking inside her body.

"It's two months old."

Jacob seemed to mock her. Emily looked up at him with furrowed brows, "You don't believe it's yours, right?"

A fog of pain flashed across his eyes and he asked, "You think it's mine? If you say yes, I will believe you. So what's your answer?"

She was stunned. However, she was sad since she was unable to give him an exact answer.

The baby was two months old, so the time of her conception might have coincided with the day she was with Jack.

"See? Even you are not sure if it's mine." He gave a mocking smile.

She closed her eyes and was silent for a long time before finally asking, "So? What do you want now?"

"I want you to have an abortion." He said almost without any hesitation.

Pain rose in her heart. Her hand on her belly seemed able to feel the existence of the baby, "I won't do that. It's my baby."

Jacob stared at her darkly, "You want to keep the baby?"

"Yes."

"Why? I don't want it." After all, it was hard for any man to be tolerant of the fact that the woman he loved had a baby with another man. Once born, the child would constantly remind him of her betrayal every single day.

"I understand that you can't take it." She finally had a calm and sensible talk with him. She took a deep breath and said, "So let's have separate lives. It's the best decision for the both of us. We should stop torturing each other."

Her words were like fire, instantly igniting the anger in his heart. He couldn't bear the thought of her eagerness to leave his side!

"I know I failed you. I'll raise the baby myself. For old days' sake, please just let me go."

"Have I ever said I will let you go? Don't even think about it." His face was grim, evoking fear in her, "It might be mine."

Now he wished more than ever that Jack's words were true.

However, what she said deprived him of his only hope. "Jacob, please don't deceive yourself anymore. This is not what you believe in your heart."

She believed that everything was her fault. She was really afraid that what she did would never be undone.

It was like a time bomb. You never knew when it would explode. But once it exploded, all would turn into ashes and debris.

She could tell that he was repressing his feelings, and so was she. This relationship would keep dragging on, crushing both of them eventually.
