No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 360

Conrad remained silent, and Haley's voice was choked with sobs, "Rad, I can't live without you. Without you, I don't even know what to do."

But Conrad said nothing. Haley, thinking the call had ended, stammered, "Rad, Rad, are you still there?"

She glanced at my phone, which showed the call was still ongoing. "Rad..."

"Haley, who told you to come to my place? Did you forget my warnings?" Conrad finally responded.

Haley's hands trembled as she held the phone, "Rad, I had no choice, I wanted to protect our baby, you said nothing should happen to our baby."

Ha.

I couldn't help but snicker to myself, even though just a few days ago, she had contemplated terminating the pregnancy in front of Aiden's parents.

"Haley, this is the last time," Conrad's voice was ice-cold.

"Rad..."

The tone of the disconnected call echoed, and Haley's grip tightened on the phone. "Rad, Rad..."

"Ms. Perez, give me back my phone. He hung up," I said, reclaiming my phone.

Haley staggered slightly, her whole demeanor like that of a soul suddenly drained from its body.

I didn't look at her, let alone concern myself with her, and drove off instead.

Throughout the drive, my mind was preoccupied with Haley's words, Aiden's death, and when I stopped, I had a moment of disorientation, not knowing how I had managed to drive to the registry office.

Lately, I had been feeling out of sorts, and although nothing untoward had happened, it was only a matter of time before it would.

I silently reminded myself that I needed to get a grip.

At the registry counter, I handed over my parents' cremation certificates, and the clerk verified them before stamping and keying in something on the computer.
