Regardless of her image, Maureen burst into tears and didn't care about the eyes of the people around her. After crying for a while, she wiped her tears randomly and looked at Jasper helplessly.
"Jasper, I don't want anything, and I only want you to love me. This is my only condition. As long as you can love me more, I will give birth to the child." Maureen's tone was more or less threatening.
They faced this problem again. Jasper felt like he was going crazy. He grabbed his hair painfully and lowered his head helplessly. His shadow was reflected in the shiny floor tiles in a blurry way.
He had a sense of helplessness and frustration in heart. After a long while, he seemed to have come round and looked at Maureen seriously and blandly.
"I'm sorry, Maureen. I told you many times that I can't give you a specific answer. I need some time." After Jasper finished his words, he glanced at Maureen's tearful face with disappointment, turned around and walked back.
His mood was very conflicted, and he was really going crazy these days.
For him, it was an accident that Maureen was pregnant. When he changed his mind and wanted to accept the fact, Maureen was determined to go against him and abort the child.
He had never met someone who was so difficult to deal with.
He felt that people should understand and respect each other in this world.
He needed time to think about many things and waited for many results.
He did not have the confidence to fall in love with Maureen, but he was sure that he could take good care of her and the child.
He still felt that he was right. Companionship and tolerance were always better than love.
In a daze, Maureen watched Jasper turn around and leave. He entered the elevator with his back to her and didn't even look at her before the the door of the elevator was closed.
Maureen looked at the closed elevator door with tears on her face. Did he leave just like that? Did he leave her alone? Didn't he want her and the child anymore?
The more Maureen thought about it, the more wronged she felt. She cried so sadly that her eyes were red and swollen. She looked at the time and found that it was already the appointed time. She made up her mind, turned around and walked to her friend's office.
Since Jasper had given up, there was no reason for her to persist. She felt very tired. She could not get Jasper's love, so she was afraid that she would not love this child.
After Eden got in the car with Victor, she thought that Maureen and Jasper looked very upset just now. When she called Abigail to tell her that she was all right, she said that she had met Maureen and Jasper in the hospital.
After chatting with Abigail, Eden looked at Victor and said, "Victor, Bethany will be buried on the sixth of next month. Myra has to arrange the funeral alone. I promised her to accompany her. Antony is abroad and I'm afraid he won't come back again."
Hearing this, Victor only pursed his lips and did not speak.
Bethany had never treated Eden as her daughter, and he didn't want her to attend the funeral.
She would be sad and shed tears at the funeral, but Bethany was unworthy of her tears.
However, even if he opposed, Eden would go there. No matter how much he said, he had to compromise in the end.
