The day I found out I was pregnant, I had lenght up the tople, for it wouldn’t look good in the wedding piston when I was beginning to have a day
By then, we could take plentos withi
be baby was born.
I thought it was meaningful, so I agreed.
In these three months, I hadn’t mentioned that agalu.
Today, when I brought up the tople, Bronson avoided my gaze
He sighed helplessly, “Idn’t we say to wait until the child is born? Veronica, have you forgotten about it? Is it because you’re pregna?”
Bronson got up, tugging at his the “I’m going to take a shower. Don’t think too much. We’ll definitely get married.”
He went into the bedroom, leaving his phone on the coffee table,
Soon, messages popped up one after another, with Nathalie’s name on them.
My breath hitch as I picked up the plane and unlocked it, scrolling ng through the texts.
“Have you gotten home?”
“You know what? As soon as you left, the balry started kicking non stop”
“Honey, do you think he was getting upset became his daddy left?”
“But don’t worry, I’ll soothe him. I’ll tell him his dad loves him very much
My fingertips trembled as I slowly put down the phone,
Those messages were like thoms, stabbing into my heart.
Honey? Baby?
Turned out he had a family already
I was just an outsider.
Chapter 2
When Bronson came out, the broken hair on his forehead was still dripping water.
I tightened my grip on the cup in my hand. Some things, it’s also time to make clear..
I opened mouth and felt a dryness in my throat,
“Bronson ”
Before the words had even finished, Bronson’s phone rang.
He frowned, walked towards the balcony, and even closed the French window,
I saw Bronson’s eyebrows relaxing and slowing down through the glass, but there was always a hint of indulgent smile on the corners of his mouth.
I twitched at the comer of my mouth and lowered my gaze, suppressing the emotions in my eyes.
Not long after, Bronson hung up the phone, with a slight frown on his forehead,
“The company had an urgent matter, and I had to rush over to handle it. Veronica, you can go to sleep first, no need to wait for me.”
He bent down and planted a kiss on my forehead, his voice filled with tender affection
“He good and rest early.”
1 watched his fast–paced figure disappear into the distance, and my
ad my heart sank suddenly
It was almost ten o’clock, and there must have been something important at the company that required his personal attention.
And that phone call, besides Nathalie, I couldn’t think of anyone else. Nathalie and Branson were childhood sweethearts, and they had a deep bond.
Back then, when I was dating Bronson, she secretly approached me and asked me to stay away from Bronson.
I naturally disagreed and had a big argument with her.
She got angry and ran away. Bronson just waved his hand and said she had a childish temper, and she would come back in a couple of days
Now, because of a phone call from Nathalie, he even lied to me without hesitation
My stomach suddenly started to ach
ache, and after a spasm, my hands and feet turned cold, and beads of sweat appeared on my forehead.
1 called Bronson, and as soon as he answered, I could hear his impatient tone,
“Veronica
Η
“Bronson, my stomach hurts, can you come back and take me to the hospital to lie down?”
There was a car bom at the other end of the screen, and Bronson suddenly chuckled
“I had just left when your stomach started hurting, Veronica. You really know how to make a a scene, even more so than two years ago.”
“If it really hurts, go to the hospital. I am not a doctor, I cannot cure the illness.”
I hesitated for a moment, and the next second, the phone gave a busy tone
I comforted the little baby in my belly and called 120 while enduring the pain.
Bronson has changed, compared to his college days, all his gentleness is now masked.
It was only two years later that I lifted a corner of this mask.
After a thorough examination, the doctor told me that the stomachache was caused by the pregnant woman’s excessive emotional excitement
He glanced at my side and furrowed his brows, asking, “Did you come alone? Where is your husband?”
I pursed my lips, and that word “husband sounded extremely ironle
“I didn’t have a husband”
The doctor’s eyes looked strange for a moment.
I asked again, “Excuse me, ca
can you arrange for an abortion procedure?”
The doctor shook his head, as if he was accustomed to people like me. Chapter 2
He made an appointment and the surgery was scheduled for three days later.
“Take a good rest these three days, don’t get too excited emotionally, girl, take care of your body.”
I listened to the well–intentioned advice, and my heart ached for a moment. When the elevator door opened, I walked in with my head down.
The surprised exclamation “Veronica” brought me back to my thoughts.
Bronson pulled me into the corner.
“Why did you come to the hospital?”
He spoke with a questioning tone, even doubting if I had been following him.
I took out the list, and the coldness in Bronson’s eyes dissipated a little.
He reached out and touched my belly, with a smile on his lips.
“You were so naughty, always causing trouble for your mother. Just wait until you come out, I’ll show you how I’ll deal with you.”
My eyes suddenly became warm.
With a tone that slightly resembled my father’s, it made me instinctively believe that he also anticipated this child.
1 opened my eyes wide and silently took two steps back.
Bronson’s hand froze in mid–air, and his eyes darkened.
I whispered, “The doctor said that it was caused by the pregnant woman’s excessive emotions, and now her stomach still hurts with intermittent
contractions.”
Listening to my explanation, Bronson’s face finally relaxed.
He took my hand and brought me to a high–end restaurant.
“Baby, you worked hard during the pregnancy. It’s my fault that I’ve been too busy lately and didn’t have time to accompany you.”
“Did I supply you well today?”
Chapter 3
Bronson did not explain why he appeared at the hospital.
I didn’t ask either.
seems like we really just happened to meet each other, and then we had a meal at the restaurant.
From beginning to end, he remained calm and showed no sign of guilt,
I was cutting the steak, but my hand just couldn’t exert any force.
When I looked up, I found myself staring into Bronson’s deep eyes.
In those eyes, it seemed as if there was hidden eternal ice,
The next second, the ice melted and brought a smile. “I’ll help you.”
“Are you still feeling uncomfortable? Do you want to go to the hospital for another check–up?”
The kalle scraped against the plate, making a sharp sound.
1 shook my head and Bronson placed the plate in front of me.
“Okay, try it. I remember you loved the steak from this place when you were in college.”
1 put a piece into my mouth, but I could no longer taste the flavor I used to have before. In fact, there was a hint of bitterness added.
Bronson’s phone suddenly lit up,
lit up, and be picked it up to take a glance. His eyes softened in an instant.
But the next second, he put down his phone and switched it to silent mode.
“Why didn’t you answer?
Fronson raised an eyebrow and said softly, “I’ll accompany you until we finish earing, the rest doesn’t matter.”
I tightened my hand holding the knife, how could that phone call bo unimportant? It was his wife’s phone call, the mother of his child.
Tate absentmindedly, but Bronson was very interested. I clearly felt that his mood was good.
Was it because he was enjoying the process of getting back at me? Enjoying the process of deceiving me.
I tilted my head back and drank a glass of water, suppressing the bitterness in my heart.
“I won’t eat anymore, please take me back.”
When he got home, Bronson didn’t even enter the house before leaving. He said there was something urgent at work, but I knew he went to the hospital.
I passed by the ward just now, I saw Nathalie’s name on the screen on the wall.
She was hospitalized.
I touched my belly, and in three days, this life would turn into a pool of blood.
I packed my luggage, intending to clarify things with Bronson when he came back.
Whether you hate me or seek revenge, at least let this relationship end clearly and unequivocally.
But these three days, Bronson did not come back.
When I called, he also used the excuse of being on a business trip to evade me
I didn’t notice Bronson leaning over Nathalie’s stomach until I passed by her ward,
At that moment, I realized that nothing mattered anymore. There was no need to expose his lies, nor was there any need to ask for a reason
Just leave quietly.
The day
I had the surgery, Nathalle was also wheeled into the operating room.
I saw Bronson pacing back and forth at the end of the corridor, his face filled
filled with anxiety with every step
He clasped his hands together and prayed for the child’s safety.
But even today, his another child was gone.
Chapter 3
Even, he knew nothing
I lowered my gate and left a letter on Nathalie’s sickbed.
Afterwards, I carried the suitcase and went to the airport.
I thought, this time, it was truly our farewell with Bronson.
I sat in the waiting room, my stomach still hurting.
As the ringing phone sounded, I weakly answered it.
Just as the call connected, Bronson’s gloomy voice came through.
“Veronica, you told me, what does ‘goodbye for good‘ mean?”
“Did you want to walk away again?
I remembered that at the end of the letter, I left this sentence.
I remember the day of my college graduation, when everyone was preparing to embrace a new future.
Bronson was also preparing to welcome us in the future.
That day he was very excited, and his voice trembled as he spoke.
He said, “Veronica, we would have a house, we would have a cat, and we would have two children.”
He was speaking incoherently, and as I kept watching, I started laughing, and as I continued laughing, I ended up crying.
I didn’t want to burst that bubble, not at all.
So, I spent the whole day with him, fantasizing
That day, he drank a lot, got very drunk, and while he was sleeping, he was still muttering about our future.
The next day when he woke up, he couldn’t find me no matter how hard he tried, and only found the brown envelope at the bedside.
In that letter, it seems like I also wrote a sentence, “I will never see you again in this lifetime.” But who knew, three years later, we met again. Even then, they were together again.
1 opened my mouth and felt a momentary tightness in my chest.
Bronson’s heavy breathing came in bursts, one after another. I knew, he was getting impatient.
But I didn’t know that he was still angry and hadn’t yet enjoyed the true satisfaction of getting back at
I was still angry when I discovered his conspiracy beforehand.
Perhaps, both are possible.
“Bronson,” I said softly, my voice choked with emotion
Actually, when I saw that marriage certificate, it really hurt, hurt so much that I could hardly breathe.
“Later, I found out that Nathalie was pregnant, and 1 became even more caring.”
“Congratulations, your revenge was successful. Now, can you let me go?”
Ime.
After a moment, Bronson sneered, “So you’ve already figured it out, huh? How boring. I was planning to tell you after you gave birth to our child.”
“Veronica, you have also been married, so you shouldn’t mind, right?”
kind of mood are you in now?”
Chapter 4
using my teeth to chatter from the cold.
Achill swept over me, causing i
Originally, Bronson no longer cared about my pain.
Thung up the phone and deleted all of Bronson’s contact information.
The moment I boarded the plane, I felt as if I had returned to that day.
The only difference was that this time I left in a sorry state, covered in bruises.
After leaving the airport, I saw a figure in the crowd waving a sign excitedly
I forced a simile and walked towards him.
After seeing me, my younger brother Maxwell Mercado gave me a big bear hug
“Veronica, you finally came back, I missed you so much.”
I frowned in pain and busily patted his shoulder.
“Take it easy, I just had surgery,” Maxwell exclaimed, widening his mouth in shock. “What surgery? What happened to you, Veronica? It’s not serious, is
head, “Not serious.”
I shook my head
Maxwell had a lot to say, chattering incessantly all the way
“Veronica, did that Bronson not come back with you?”
Two years ago, when 1 reunited with Bronson, I was so excited that I immediately opened a video call with Maxwell and told him everything
Maxwell was clearly very tired, but he still forced himself to listen to me until I finished.
“Veronica, if you still loved each other, then be together. You have already missed each other once; you cannot miss each other again.”
I was so excited that I nodded repeatedly, even thinking of several possible outcomes.
What should I do if Bronson doesn’t love me anymore? If he is single, then I will pursue him.
If he had a girlfriend, then I would withdraw.
Before I could take the initiative, Bronson took the lead and sent me a signal of reconciliation.
He spoke with deep sincerity, his eyes filled with tenderness and affection.
I panicked, my heart moved, and I couldn’t even be bothered to argue about the authenticity, so we just got back together like that.
We were together for two years, but it was a colossal lie.
The car slowly came to a stop, and I suddenly came to my senses, looking at the familiar buildings outside the window, feeling a tightness in my chest.
I unbuckled my seatbelt, but Maxwell remained motionless.
He stretched out his hand and pointed at my eyes.
“Veronica, you cried again.”
I subconsciously touched the corner of my eye, and Maxwell suddenly hugged me.
