A Love Trap novel Chapter 309

They were shocked. Nobody knew anything about Lena's pregnancy. And now, all of a sudden, they were told that the baby was gone. They were completely dumbstruck.

Peggy asked incredulously, "Lena, what's this about a baby? Tell me what is going on!"

Cora was just as confused. She thought about it, but she couldn't figure it out. She just looked at Lena and waited for her to explain.

Lena felt everyone's eyes on her. Putting her hands on her stomach, she started to sob. Tears rolled down her cheeks. She looked like she was in great pain.

Cora could guess what was going on based on Lena's reaction. However, she was not so sure about it. Feeling excited, she just ignored what Lena had said earlier.

"Lena, is this true? Are you having Raymond's baby?" Cora asked Lena excitedly.

Families like the Mu family and the Luo family used marriage to build bonds with each other and grow their businesses.

Lena was Raymond's fiancee. Cora definitely was elated about Lena's pregnancy.

Peggy looked at Lena in surprise. She was also excited about this news. Lena's pregnancy meant that the relationship between the Mu and Luo families was going to get even better.

Now, no one could challenge Lena's place in the Luo family!

Seeing the excited expression on their faces, Lena didn't say a word. Instead, she lowered her head and let her tears fall on the sheets.

Raymond said nothing either. Finally, Cora and Peggy realized that there was something wrong.

Cora asked, "Lena, why are you crying? And Raymond, why don't you say anything? Shouldn't you be happy about Lena's pregnancy? Don't you want the baby?"

Lena and Raymond remained silent.

They really didn't know what to say and how to say it.

Today was a tough day for Raymond. One moment, he found out he was going to be a father. And the next moment, the doctor told him that his baby was gone.

He was on an emotional roller coaster. He could barely deal with it himself. There was no way he could help his parents cope with it at this point.

Cora asked again, "What's going on? Can someone explain to me? Raymond, start talking."

Their silence finally wore out Cora's patience. She forced her son to talk.

Cora had been involved in the family business with Clyde. She was an aggressive woman. It was hard for Raymond to resist her interrogation.

He answered, "Mother, the baby is gone."

Cora felt a bit dizzy. "It's gone? What the hell do you mean by that? Tell me! How did this happen?" she demanded.

Peggy was flabbergasted. She asked, "How? How did you lose the baby?"

Lena suddenly burst into tears. She wailed, "Mrs. Luo...Mom...I am so sorry! It's all my fault. I didn't protect my baby. Please don't blame my sister for it. It's my fault. She didn't do anything. It's me who didn't protect the baby..."

Lena sobbed her heart out. Both women smelled something fishy in this story.
