Chapter 121 I Cannot Promise Now

Cassie grabbed Elizabeth’s hand and pleaded, “Mom, I really love Oscar. I planned this just because I wanted him to spend more time by my side. Isn’t it great now? He is putting aside his work to accompany me.”

At that moment, Elizabeth was heartbroken. “Do you know how much damage abortion can do to a woman? This might cause you unable to have children again.”

Cassie was stunned. “Mom, what are you saying?”

Looking at Cassie’s ignorance, Elizabeth became even more furious. “What am I saying? I am saying you might not be able to get pregnant anymore. It’s all your own doing, so shame on you.”

Although Elizabeth’s words sounded offensive, it was still because she could not accept this cruel reality about her daughter.

Learning that fact, Cassie was bewildered. Her hands could not stop trembling as she held on to her mother. “Mom, is that true? Are you lying to me?”

Seeing her like this, Elizabeth’s heart softened. “I am your mother. Why would I lie to you? You’ve made a terrible mistake.If you’d discussed it with me, you wouldn’t have caused this mess. But don’t worry too much. The doctor only said that it will be difficult to get pregnant, but that doesn’t mean there will be no chance at all. I will find the best doctor for you.

Cassie’s face seemed to turn even paler. “Mom, I want to have a child with Oscar.”

Elizabeth uttered with annoyance, “Well, what goes around comes around. You should have expected it the moment you made this plan. Do you know that you might even lose your own life? You should be smart enough to know this! How I wish I don’t have a daughter like you.”

Cassie grabbed Elizabeth’s hand and whimpered, “Mom, I was wrong. I only wanted Oscar to marry me because I believe he still loves me. He told me that it was just a marriage of convenience between him and Amelia. He promised to marry me once I’m back.”

Right then, Elizabeth recalled what Cassie said just now. “Earlier, you said that you never slept with Oscar. What did you mean by that?”

Cassie’s expression turned a little awkward.

“Mom, there’s no need to ask about this anymore. You just need to remember that the child wasn’t his.”

Unable to hear the truth from Cassie, Elizabeth added angrily. “Honestly speaking, I don’t want to meddle in your business anymore either.”

“Mom, please don’t. I’m your daughter. If you don’t care about me, who else is willing to do so? Would you like your daughter to lose everything after suffering for so much?”

“Well, you deserve it.”

“B-But… I am still your daughter.”

Elizabeth was left speechless at that.

Just then, a knock on the door interrupted the quarrel between the two. Elizabeth went to open the door. It was their housemaid who had brought the food.

“Mrs. Yard, this is the meal I have prepared. Mr. Yard is still discussing work with the shareholders at the office. He asked me to inform you that he will only come later.”

Elizabeth nodded and said, “I see. You can leave now. Thanks.”

“Alright, Mrs. Yard.”
