Chapter 837 Abort the Child

After all, would a sober woman, who had learned how to fight, not be able to push a drunk man off of her? No; of course she’d be able to do so. She could even knock the drunk man out before throwing him over her shoulder. Charles knew of Daphne’s capabilities—that was why he immediately realized what she was trying to do after learning that she had allowed him to bring her to bed. That was why he hated her so much.

Daphne had been his secretary for years. She was a trusted secretary and friend, yet she tried to manipulate him this time. How could he not feel angry and hateful? So, he didn’t exactly make a mistake when he decided not to take any responsibility for her. Sonia let out a sigh. “Regardless of who was right or wrong, the child is still innocent. Are you sure you want to abort the child?”

“Yeah.” Daphne nodded. “I’ve made a decision. This child popped out of nowhere, and the father is not going to like the child. President Lane is not going to welcome the child if I give birth to it, and this would make my baby an illegitimate child. How am I supposed to answer my child when my child asks me who his or her father is? I thought about it. Since I can’t give my child a happy family, and since my child won’t have a father, I’d rather not have the child come into this world at all. I can’t allow my selfishness to harm the child,” she uttered.

Sonia wasn’t too surprised after hearing Daphne’s words. That was exactly what went through Sonia’s mind when she was pregnant. Back then, she didn’t know that she was pregnant with Toby’s child—she thought the child belonged to a stranger. So, she decided not to give birth to the child as she didn’t want things to be unfair for the child.

“Since you’ve made up your mind, I don’t think I should make any more comments. But I’d like to know if Charles knows about this baby. If he does, then you should tell him about it before aborting the child. If he doesn’t know about it, then you can just pretend I never said anything.”

Daphne shook her head. “He doesn’t know about my pregnancy. I didn’t tell anyone about this, and I don’t plan to tell President Lane about it either. If he knew that I got pregnant, he would only hate me even more. He might even think that I didn’t take the morning after pill just because I wanted to be pregnant with his child.”

all. Judging by the negative feelings Charles presently had toward Daphne, he would probably make the worst

 

That way, all of the fate and connection between President Lane and me would come to a proper end,” Daphne said with her glass of milk in her hand. The milk was hot, yet its temperature didn’t seem to warm her cold hands or her icy heart at all. Her

When he saw the woman sitting around and zoning out with a soulless look in her eyes, he raised an eyebrow before walking in quietly. Sonia only noticed movement in the room when Toby placed the lunchbox on her desk. Then, her eyes lit up for a moment as she returned to her senses. She turned
