Madam Escaped Again Sir novel Chapter 837

After all, would a sober woman, who had learned how to fight, not be able to push a drunk man off of her? No; of course she'd be able to do so. She could even knock the drunk man out before throwing him over her shoulder. Charles knew of Daphne's capabilities-that was why he immediately realized what she was trying to do after learning that she had allowed him to bring her to bed. That was why he hated her so much.

Daphne had been his secretary for years. She was a trusted secretary and friend, yet she tried to manipulate him this time. How could he not feel angry and hateful? So, he didn't exactly make a mistake when he decided not to take any responsibility for her. Sonia let out a sigh. "Regardless of who was right or wrong, the child is still innocent. Are you sure you want to abort the child?"

"Yeah." Daphne nodded. "I've made a decision. This child popped out of nowhere, and the father is not going to like the child. President Lane is not going to welcome the child if I give birth to it, and this would make my baby an illegitimate child. How am I supposed to answer my child when my child asks me who his or her father is? I thought about it. Since I can't give my child a happy family, and since my child won't have a father, I'd rather not have the child come into this world at all. I can't allow my selfishness to harm the child," she uttered.

Sonia wasn't too surprised after hearing Daphne's words. That was exactly what went through Sonia's mind when she was pregnant. Back then, she didn't know that she was pregnant with Toby's child-she thought the child belonged to a stranger. So, she decided not to give birth to the child as she didn’t want things to be unfair for the child.

"Since you've made up your mind, I don't think I should make any more comments. But I'd like to know if Charles knows about this baby. If he does, then you should tell him about it before aborting

the child. If he doesn't know about it, then you can just pretend I never said anything."

Daphne shook her head. "He doesn't know about my pregnancy. I didn't tell anyone about this, and I don't plan to tell President Lane about it either. If he knew that I got pregnant, he would only hate me even more. He might even think that I didn't take the morning after pill just because I wanted to be pregnant with his child."

"Well...” Sonia pressed her lips together as she didn't know what to say. It was a possibility, after all. Judging by the negative feelings Charles presently had toward Daphne, he would probably make the worst assumptions about all of her

actions. So, if he found out about her pregnancy, he might think she had gotten pregnant intentionally, just so that he would have to marry her.

"But I bet President Charles would get me to abort the child even if he found out that I was pregnant. As I said, President Lane hates me, so how could he accept the child? So, the best way to deal with this child now is to abort it. That way, all of the fate and connection between President Lane and me would come to a proper end," Daphne said with her glass of milk in her hand. The milk was hot, yet its temperature didn't seem to warm her cold hands or her icy heart at all. Her heart-like the rest of her body-felt as cold as ice.

"I guess that's good," Sonia said with a nod. Sonia finally understood that Charles and Daphne's relationship would never work out. After she heard about what happened between them that night, she knew that she would no longer be able to matchmake the both of them. Charles now saw Daphne as a manipulative woman. So, he would never fall for a woman like Daphne, nor would he be with a woman like her. If that were the case, their child would live a sad life if he or she had been born.

Even if they kept the child, Charles wouldn't stay with Daphne just for the sake of the child. Charles might even fight for custody over the child, and Daphne would struggle to win against him. If that happened. Daphne would only be more disappointed. What would all of it be for? Perhaps an abortion was the best choice.

'TH go with you for the procedure." Sonia patted the back of Daphne's hand. Daphne felt a warm, fuzzy feeling in her heart. "Thank you, President Reed." Daphne nodded.

"It's nothing." Sonia shook her head. "I was part of the reason you and Charles ended up in this situation. I was the one who told you to follow him. If I hadn't done so, perhaps you and Charles' relationship would still be fine. You might have had a better chance of being with him."
