No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 121



Haley stood there, awkward and embarrassed, unable to muster a single word in response to my words. It was a discomfort she had brought upon herself.

"Ms. Perez, if there's nothing else, you might want to head home early. You're carrying a precious load, and any mishap would be unfortunate," I said, my words more of a genuine caution than sarcasm.

She had her reasons for wanting to keep the baby, so she ought to be more cautious, instead of wandering around recklessly, even venturing into places as hazardous as amusement parks.

Unless, deep down, she didn't want the child at all.

This thought crossed my mind, sending a shiver through me. I looked at Haley's face, still flushed with the humiliation I had inflicted, but nothing more revealed itself.

Having said what I needed to and vented my frustrations, I turned to leave.

"Do you really no longer love Rad? You don't want to be with him anymore?" Haley's voice trailed after me.

I laughed, not bothering to look back, "Sure, he's all yours."
