After such a long time, Nina had almost forgotten about Vivian. She didn't expect her to survive after she was tortured by John's men.
What baffled her even more was the fact that she was pregnant. Thinking about the unborn child, Nina felt her heart soften since she was a mother of two children. She looked at John.
However, John was a cold-hearted man.
"Not a chance," he said indifferently. "She only has two options. It's either she gets rid of the child, or she finds a way to deliver the baby herself."
He glanced up at the two men pleading for Vivian. They had been his friends for many years.
"It's irresponsible for her to give birth to the baby because she won't be able to raise it anyway,"
Nina said. "Considering her situation, I think she should abort the baby."
"I know," Henry said with a sigh. "I was against her giving birth to a child in the beginning. And I don't even know who the father is. However, my father and Vivian's mother already know about it. After all, her child is still part of the Ye family. That's why they want her to continue with the pregnancy.
As you know, the Ye family doesn't have many heirs left these days." He cast a glance at Adrian.
"Ahem!" Adrian cleared his throat. "To be honest, the Song family is in the same situation."
And this was because he and Henry were gay.
Deep inside, he felt guilty.
Up to now, Adrian still hadn't come out of the closet. He was waiting for his sister, Evelyn, to get married.
Nina looked at the two men, and didn't know what to say.
After a few moments of silence, John asked Henry, "How about Noah?"
"Right. Is he seeing someone?" Nina asked.
"He..." Henry hesitated for a while before saying, "It's our fault. I think he has become gay because of us."
With eyes wide open, Nina asked curiously, "What? Are you sure?"
"Don't listen to them," John cut in. He put his arm around her waist and told the truth. "You can tell Noah that the one he likes is a woman dressing up as a man."
"Huh? A woman dressing up in men's clothes? This sounds a little familiar," Nina remarked.
She thought of Vicente. She had been disguising herself as a man for decades, and had successfully deceived many people.
"A woman?" Adrian was stunned.
"How do you know?" Henry asked.
"Yeah! How do you know?" Nina asked. She was baffled as to how John knew so much about the person.
And she was surprised to know that Noah was in love with someone.
She had never known any woman who was close to Noah. On the other hand, he was close to a lot of men, but they were all his colleagues.
The only one who was close to Noah and disguised herself as a man was Vicente.
At the thought of this, Nina's brain went blank.
Her amber eyes grew wide in disbelief. She looked at John and said, "No way! Really?"
Giving her a subtle smile, John bowed his head and said to her, "Congratulations! You finally got it."
Shocked, Nina just stood frozen beside him.
She tried to speak, but no words came out of her mouth. The situation was still difficult for her to wrap her mind around. She sat still while she tried to recall her memories of Vicente and Noah. While she did see them often together, she never thought of them in that light.
However, she knew that it would be difficult for them to have a romantic relationship.
She knew that it was going to be hard for them in the future.
Feeling sad, she couldn't help frowning as she thought about their situation.
John noticed her worry and patted her waist to calm her down. "Don't worry about them. I'm sure they'll be able to handle it."
