Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 925 Elias and Ashley's Side Story: Number 1

The doctor paused briefly before responding, "Medically, a pregnancy where the woman is over 35 is considered an advanced maternal age. Statistics show that as women age, they face more risks during pregnancy.

"For example, there's an increased risk of chromosomal abnormalities. Conditions like gestational diabetes or hypertension become more common too. But not every woman will experience these issues-it varies from person to person."

Elias tensed up. "So, what are the chances of having no complications at all?"

The doctor replied, "Not very high."

They could still try for a child, but it would likely take a toll on Ashley's body.

As they left the hospital, Elias said without hesitation, "We're not having a baby."

Ashley furrowed her brows. "Why? I thought I couldn't get pregnant anymore, but now, the doctor that you'd brought in said that I can. Isn't that good news?"

"Bullshit! I'm not letting you put your body at risk for a child we don't even know yet. What kind of idiot would agree to something like that?"

A fierce glint flickered across Elias' eyes, and Ashley stared at him with a blank expression.

Elias stood firm, and neither of them surrendered for three minutes. Eventually, Ashley turned on her heel and walked away. However, Elias didn't follow her.

Before, Elias had never shown anger toward Ashley, and he had always accommodated her. But now, regardless of whether she spoke calmly or threatened him with sharp words, Elias wouldn't yield.

Elias was even prepared to give up their physical intimacy. Every night, he wore long-sleeved pajamas to bed, as if he were a monk sworn to celibacy.

But that night, Ashley narrowed her eyes and playfully reached out to touch his chest.

Elias immediately sat up and scooted away from her.

"You need to behave yourself! Keep this up, and I'll go sleep in the guest room," he scolded lightly.

A hint of amusement flashed in Ashley's eyes as she nonchalantly tossed her hair behind her shoulder. She never wore a bra to bed. So, as her nightgown's strap slipped off her shoulder, a smooth expanse of pale skin was revealed.

"Oh? Where did you say you were going to sleep?"

Elias felt an immediate response.

How could she tease him like that?

Although Elias was frustrated, he stood his ground and refused Ashley's seduction. He rolled out of bed and marched straight into the bathroom to take a cold shower.

Ashley was left speechless.
