Chapter 369

Ailie wasn't completely oblivious-she could tell Victoria didn't want to go into details, so she let it drop.

"Does McNeil know you're pregnant?"

Victoria fell silent.

Ailie immediately exploded.

"That jerk stayed with you in Evermore City for four, five days and still doesn't know you're pregnant? Does he care about you at all?"

A strange ache flashed through Victoria's heart, but she quickly pushed it aside.

Ailie sighed and changed tack.

"Forget him. What are you going to do about the baby? Are you keeping it or not? Honestly, McNeil is a lost cause. You ought to decide soon."

Victoria stared into the distance, her eyes vacant.

"This baby is mine. I could never give it up."

But as for McNeil, she didn't even want to mention his name.

Ailie had never been married, so she couldn't really grasp how a woman might feel as a mother. If she were in Victoria's shoes, and things with her husband were this bad, she probably wouldn't keep the child.

"Whatever. I won't meddle anymore. But what now? McNeil's the father-are you really planning to keep him in the dark? He has to take responsibility, doesn't he?"

Victoria managed a faint smile.

"You don't need to worry about me. Just help me keep this pregnancy a secret. Don't tell anyone."

Ailie could only shrug.

"Have it your way."
