Need You Now novel Chapter 204

After breakfast, Heidy and Hearst drive Gavin to the kindergarten. Standing at the door, Heidy watched Gavin capered into the classroom. Then she turned around and walked side by side to the car with Hearst.

With her eyes fixated on the front, she thought of what had happened this morning. She said to him in a soft voice, "Hearst, we have been saying that we should solve the problem as soon as possible, but we haven't found the right solution. In fact, I have been very sad these days."

Holding her hand, Hearst said to her apologetically, "I know. I've hurt you a lot."

"Yes. I could have tried to accept it. However, Ada's action in the morning has made me understand something. To compromise was not a good solution. It might be better if she accidentally miscarried, but if she did have a baby, I would really be unable to accept it. No matter whether you will get involved or not, it will be my nightmare."

Hearing her words, Hearst stopped and looked into her eyes. "So?"

Hearing his words, Heidy also stopped. She looked into his eyes and said slowly, "Give me some time, Hearst. I can't accept the fact now. If I stay with you, I will think of it all the time. The best way is to part from you temporarily."

Before she could finish, Hearst refused bluntly, "No, I can't. Heidy, I don't want you to avoid every problem."

With a light smile on her face, Heidy said bitterly, "Maybe it's because I have gotten used to it. But this time I said to part from you, not because I want to break up with you, but because I want to give myself some time to think about this matter."

Holding her face in both hands, Hearst said seriously, "Heidy, I know you need time to accept it. In fact, I was investigating the matter as well. This is so weird that I always feel it is not right. Give me some time. When they relax their vigilance, we will definitely find some clues."

Following his words, Heidy smiled and said, "I think if we can separate, we can let them relax their vigilance. After all, the reason why Ada did these things was that she wanted to marry you and replace me. Our separation would make people think that we had broken up with each other. In this way, they may relax their vigilance."

Seeing the expression on her face, Hearst didn't answer. What Heidy said was reasonable, but he still didn't want to separate with her. "Heidy." He tried to convince her.

Staring at him, Heidy calmly interrupted, "It's about time. I should go to the company." Then she broke free from his hand, turned around and walked forward.

Seeing her receding figure, Hearst looked grave. But just as she said, it was not a good solution to put herself in an unfavorable situation. The top priority was to find her weakness. Hearst believed that things were not that simple as they seemed.

On the way to the company, they didn't talk about the topic. Heidy unbuckled her seat belt. She looked out of the window and said calmly, "I hope this can be settled as soon as possible. If that child was really born, I'm afraid I can't do it..."
