Chapter 1544
Comelia smirked mischievously, “It’s a secret!”
Something else occurred to Hannah and the light in her eyes faded, “He had a vasectomy.”
Comelia questioned, “You saw him do it?”
Hannah shook her head, “All these years, I’ve never taken birth control and he never uses condoms. But I’ve never gotten pregnant.”
Comelia argued, “Sometimes what you see isn’t always the truth, let alone what you don’t see. If you want to know if he really had a vasectomy, you could give it a
try.”
Hannah replied, “How?”
Comelia said, “Let me tell you slowly. You have to remember.”e2
The two women chatted happily, completely oblivious to Jeremy who had finished his shower and had been out for a while. He heard every word Cornelia said to Hannah, and kept it in mind.
Get rid of the father and keep the child? Was this his literal understanding? If so, where did Cornelia, this mischievous girl, learn all this absurd nonsense? It seemed he could no longer spoil her without principles, who knew what shocking things this girl could do.
Meanwhile, Steven’s battered van stopped outside Hannah’s village again. The countryside not only had great air, but also a view of the starry sky. The starry sky was especially beautiful tonight, and he was mesmerized.
The sudden ring of his cell phone in the silent night gave him a start. He looked down to see Marc displayed on the phone on the passenger seat, and answered,
“Marc, what’s up?”
Jeremy’s pleasant voice came from the phone, “My wife is video chatting with your ex-wife. They’ve been talking for almost an hour and they’re still going.”
The resentment was almost seeping out of the phone screen, Steven found it amusing, “Ah, Marc, so you also get ignored by your wife. I thought you two were so in love, this kind of thing would never happen.”
Jeremy scoffed, “I am indeed being ignored by my wife, so I wanted to chat with someone who’s in the same boat, and you were the first one I thought of.”
In this round, Steven lost. And he lost completely.
He said, “Marc, to have a friend like you is my fortune!”
Jeremy asked, “Are you in Haines?”
Steven tried to deny it, “I’m in Harbor City.””
Jeremy said, “Hmm…”
