One year, one love by Aurora Miller

Chapter 112

The outpatient hall was bustling with people. Through the crowd, Lewis spotted Matteo.

A young girl was holding Matteo’s hand, her pretty face showing a shy smile. “Mr. Webb, I’m pregnant.”

Matteo reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear but didn’t say anything.

They had met at a cocktail party. Roniany Shelters was a recent college graduate.

After a one–night stand, Matteo had given Romany 65 thousand dollars to leave him alone.

She didn’t take the money, only saying, “My feelings can’t be bought. I just love you.”

After that, Romany resigned from the company and didn’t bother him again.

Later, they met again at a bar. Romany was being harassed, and Matteo stepped in to help. That was when he found out they had attended the same university, though he had graduated before she enrolled.

When he took her home that night, they couldn’t resist each other and ended up together again.

Romany was gentle and well–behaved. Whenever Matteo was upset, he would visit her.

She would cook for him and keep him company without saying much. They were like a couple.

Romany’s period was late, so she came to the hospital for a checkup.

Romany bit her lip and said urgently, “Mr. Webb, I won’t make things difficult for you. It’s up to you to decide about this child. If you don’t want it, I’ll get an abortion right away-”

She was smart. She didn’t use the child to force Matteo to give her a title. Instead, she retreated to advance, making him feel -pity for her.

“If you want to keep it, then go ahead.” Matteo’s eyes showed a hint of a smile.

Romany was surprised that Matteo agreed to let her keep the child.

“This is our child, of course I want to keep it. But can I really? Will we be safe?” Romany gently touched her flat stomach. “Will my child and I be safe?”

She had always known Matteo was married. But she didn’t know what kind of person Matteo’s wife was. She heard that wealthy wives might turn a blind eye to their husbands‘ affairs, but they wouldn’t tolerate illegitimate children.

“Of course you can. I’ll be here.” Matteo ruffled her hair.

Romany was seven years younger than him, young, cute, gentle, and considerate–everything he liked.
