When Maureen heard Eden's voice, she came to sense and found that Eden was looking at her with concern.
She pursed her dry lips slightly, and her eyes were still dejected and sombre, "I aborted Jasper's child." Her tone was very mournful.
She did not have many friends here, and there was no one she could talk to. After thinking about it, she thought of Eden.
Eden did not know how to reply to her.
Maureen spoke straightforwardly. Eden wanted to answer her euphemistically, but she couldn't. After all, Maureen aborted the child on her own, and it was not an accident.
Eden did not speak and looked down at the bag in her hands.
Maureen looked at her quietly for a while. When Eden did not speak, she was very gentle. The expression on her pretty face was bland, but she made her feel at ease.
Jasper had been infatuated with Eden's face for ten years.
Maureen looked away slowly and said with sorrow, "He doesn't want to love me."
Eden clenched her fists slightly. For some unknown reason, her anger overflowed, and she said in an unfriendly tone, "It is you who want to get him all the time. It is your fault. I thought you could make it to the end."
Maureen shook her head in pain, "I know I was wrong, but he doesn't want to love me. He only loves you."
Only then did Eden look up at her painful expression, and her eyes were filled with disappointment.
"Maureen, did you give him time to love you? Did you give him any chance? Did you give him a chance to get along with you? Did you give him a chance to think about your future? You only care about your own feelings, and you pushed him away when he wanted to care about your feelings. Did he have an opportunity to love you?"
"No matter who Jasper used to love, he didn't escape reality but took the responsibility after he learned that you were pregnant. He said that he would be responsible for you and hoped that you would give him some time. Why were you in such a hurry? You have loved him for so many years. Why couldn't you wait for him for another year? I always think that giving up someone we love is more difficult than falling in love with another person."
"But you are the exact opposite. You love him deeply, but you let go of him so quickly. You gave up your love when Jasper had just changed his mind. You aborted your child. For Jasper, what you killed is not only his child, but also his life."
"When you decided to give up this child, have you thought about its father? Since its father didn't agree, what right did you have to give it up? Now you even say that he doesn't want to love you. Now I can tell you clearly that he really won't love you anymore. You fell in love with him first, but you ruined your love as well."
She had known Jasper for ten years, and she was particularly familiar with his temper. What Maureen had done really pissed him off.
Her words were indeed unpleasant to hear, but she was too angry.
Since Maureen had made up her mind to be with Jasper, she should stick to the end.
Since she had never done her best and didn't know the result, how could she know whether her effort was worth it or not?
"Woo-woo..." Maureen covered her face and cried in pain.
Eden looked at her coldly without any sympathy.
