To Be Yours Again novel (Alec and Jenny) novel Chapter 1065

Marigold finally panicked at that moment. She struggled with all her might. "I'm not getting an abortion! Paul, let me have the baby. You're capable enough and won't need to rely on my arranged marriage for power. Just let me raise the baby alone," she wailed and sobbed.

Paul's expression hardened, but at least he stopped dragging her into the hospital. "Yeah, I do not need to arrange a marriage for you. But have you considered the consequences of having the baby? You'll be the brunt of the joke, and that's going to be tough. Are you sure you can handle that?"

Even though the Wagners were not the most influential, they raised Marigold as a princess, and she never encountered any major obstacles in her life. Her claim that she'd raise a child as a single mother was an absolute joke.

She straightened her back and said in all seriousness, "I can."

"You—" he choked on anger once more. "You can keep the child if you want. We can afford that. But in return, you need to tell me who is the father, so I can decide on our next step." His tone softened as he reached for a compromise.

She hung her head and stubbornly refused to speak. That was the last straw for him. "If you're not telling, we're not keeping the baby!" Then, he started dragging her into the hospital.

She was terrified. Knowing Paul, he totally had the means and guts to carry out his threat. "Paul, if I tell you, will you really let me keep the baby?" she asked tentatively.

"Do you have a choice now?" he fired back. Her face went blank as she sank into despair. He threatened her again when she refused to tell, "Do you think I can't get to the bottom of it? I can investigate all the people you were in contact with. It's a matter of time before I find out about him."

"I'll tell," she hurriedly added. "But promise me not to tell anyone else. And don't give him trouble. I willingly keep the baby, and he doesn't even know about the pregnancy."
