Pregnant and Abandoned but the Billionaire to the Rescue novel Chapter 32

'You have to terminate the pregnancy. You should have been more careful in the first instance', he had said to her shocked disbelief.

'I am not hearing this! Are you blaming me for this? Did I get myself pregnant all by myself?'

'No but you should have known better than to have allowed it. We just started being intimate and you have already ruined it with this pregnancy!' he said furiously.

'By your words, I should take it that you are not happy about the baby then?'

'You ate right, I am not!' he stormed.

'But why is that, you said you loved me and I love you too, very much. What could be bad about the pregnancy then?

'Everything. For one, I am not ready for it now and neither are you'.

'Says who? I am ready if you are ready. This is a part of you and a part of me. It is the symbol of our love. We should cherish it and not kill it. We were going to get married afterall, so what if we have to do it earlier than we had planned, it is still for our good, don't you think'.

The look in his eyes had been enough to strangle her and Nancy had taken a few steps back.She had been holding him pleadingly. Not understanding what the problem was. If they loved each other the way she was sure that they did, what was the harm in getting married sooner to give their baby a home? She had been gloriously happy when she had found out that she was pregnant but why was Robert reacting this way? He was acting as though.... no it couldn't be. Robert loved her and the news of her pregnancy must have come as a surprise to him and everybody reacted to surprises in different ways.

'Robert, I am aware that the news has come as a surprise to you. You had been taken unawares and so have I but it is a good news nonetheless. Pull yourself together and let's reason this out. What are you so afraid of?'

'I am not afraid of anything!'

'Then what is it? You have the money to care for me and our baby. You and I are both adults and in love. What is there to stop us getting married? You can definitely not be unsure of my love for you are you?' Nancy asked perplexed.

Robert had kept silent. And then brought out his wallet and drawn out some amount of money.

'Here, take this.It should cover the expenses for the abortion. If you need more, let me know. But do it quick before it becomes too late. By the time I call you this evening, I want to hear you tell me that you have successfully terminated this pregnancy. We need to get to know each other more before welcoming any pregnancy'.

Nancy could have been blown down by a feather as she stared at him, with her mouth agape.

'Take it!' he commanded and she came out of her stupor.

'I won't!'

'And why not? You have enough money for the D&C?'

'I don't but I won't take this money from you because I shan't be aborting this baby'.
