Billionaire, Let's Divorce (Mark and Sydney) novel Chapter 79

Chapter 0079

That day, as I dressed up and prepared for work… as I made my way to work up until I sat in my office seat, I felt uneasy inside.

So when she came to me, two months later, with an ultrasound report and put her hand on her flat tummy, her eyes glinting with a mixture of hope, fear and happiness, I hadn’t really been surprised.

“Tom, I’m pregnant,” her voice trembled, barely above a whisper.

I had just sat there and stared at her, I guessed deep down, I already knew she was pregnant.

But I still reacted though. The blood had drained from my face at the realization that what I dreaded had finally happened. “But I remembered that I told you to take the birth control pill!” I had blurt out angrily without thinking or even considering her feelings.

As expected, tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at me. “I did take it,” her voice quivered, “But it must have failed. It was an accident, okay? I didn’t expect this to happen either. But, I want to keep this baby, Mark,” she took a step closer to me, “And the doctor said my body is too weak, if I don’t keep this child, I might never have the chance to be a mother again.”

My body is too weak…..

It was an excuse I had grown accustomed to. I could almost always tell whenever there was a but coming after a sentence that it was what she would say.

Her weak body was always perfectly okay whenever she pleaded with me to make love to her roughly. It was the only time her weak body was strong.

But still, I couldn’t let her abort the child. I put it there, even if I was oblivious of my actions. I could easily picture myself pounding into her in my drunken state. Besides, that child in her womb would be my first

child.

“Then…” Even to me, my voice had sounded stuck in my throat. I looked at Bella, feeling a bit guilty for my immediate outburst. “Then have the child, I’ll take responsibility. It’s my responsibility.”

Hearing this, Bella had immediately burst into tears and thrown herself into my arms and cried uncontrollably. She didn’t care how solemn I had sounded or how transactional the admission that I would take responsibility had sounded, she was just happy that she was pregnant and I didn’t turn away

and matter of minutes, I found out that my Bella had a heart disease.
