Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Chapter 615

The doctor theorized that maybe it was Evangeline's heartache, her rollercoaster emotions, that caused such a massive bleed, putting the baby at risk. However, how could Holden, her uncle, ever bring himself to say that to her?

"Evie, maybe it just wasn't meant to be with this baby. And hey, you're about to kick that jerk Walter to the curb with a divorce. Keeping the baby wouldn't be the best for you."

Holden eased down next to Evangeline, gently pulling her into a half-hug, letting her rest against him. "Sometimes things end, but you've got your whole life ahead. Why tie yourself down with Walter's kid? One day you'll meet someone amazing, and you can start a family then. Wouldn't that be so much better?"

Holden's words were careful, but Evangeline got the painful message loud and clear.

Without Walter, any child she had would grow up fatherless, and it could mess up her chances of finding happiness with someone else down the line.

Maybe it was better to let go then, to one day have a child with someone new, someone who would be in it with her, for real.

Even so... that was her and Walter's baby.
