Facade of Love

Chapter 21 Moore Moves Into the Old Manor

I did not look at him and calmly said, “Does it matter what was said? She’s been looking forward to having great–grandchildren for so many years, and now two are coming along at once. What else could she say?” I then looked at him sarcastically. “What about you? Have you figured out how to accommodate these two soon–to–be–born children?”

His eyebrows slightly furrowed, and he looked at me with his dark eyes. “How do you want me to accommodate them?”

“Heh!” I chuckled coldly, stood up, and smoothed out the folds in my dress. I said to him somewhat sarcastically, “What do I want? Of course I want you to abort Moore’s child and only be the father to mine. However, would you be willing to do that, Mr. Young?”

“You’re a vicious woman, Yvette Scott!” Of course, it was not Idris who said this, but Moore.

After finishing up her check–up with Mr. Zachary, she had been brought back to the old manor. Presumably, she had come to report the status of her pregnancy to Madam Young. Hearing my conversation with Idris, she was so furious that she looked like she wanted to scratch my eyes out.

However, Idris restrained her, frowning as he said, “Be careful. You’re pregnant.”

Hearing his concern, Moore regained some rationality. Her eyes were teary as she looked at him and said, “Iddy, you don’t actually want me to abort this child, do you?”

A rare look of helplessness appeared on Idris‘ face. His gaze softened as he said, “Grandma has already decided that you’ll be moving into the old manor so the baby can be well taken care of. Why

would I harm the child?“.

Upon hearing this, Moore’s mood seemed to improve significantly. She turned her gaze toward me and said to Idris, “What about her? Is she also moving into the old manor?”

Moore’s face intensified. She looked at me provocatively, yet her words were absurdly disingenuous. “After all, I’m not the Youngs‘ daughter–in–law. Would it be against the rules for me to move in so abruptly?
