Ada’s heart sank when she saw Liam’s expression.
“Aren’t you happy?”
Liam scoffed and glared at her. “Do you think I should be happy?”
She was at a loss of words. She had yet to respond when Liam added, “I’ll get you an appointment for an abortion.”
Ada’s face immediately turned pale. She stared at him in disbelief. “This is your child. Are you really that cruel?”
“If you give birth to the child, it’ll be more painful for the child when it eventually learns the truth.”
Ada held her tummy in response. She took a step back and said, “I’m afraid you don’t get to decide that.”
“What do you mean?”
“I already told your grandmother about this before I told you.”
His expression instantly darkened, and he stared daggers at her.
“Ada, you’re setting me up!”
She cocked her eyebrow in surprise and sneered. “If you hadn’t walked into that bedroom, this never would’ve happened. You set me up too.”
He had walked into that room on purpose so that Abalene would think that he was the victim. He wanted to get more inheritance from her.
“You’ll regret this!”
“I might not be the one regretting it! Besides, your chances of winning will be bigger with this child, won’t it?”
Liam did not say anything else as he sulked. No one knew what was on his mind.
Meanwhile, Mindy had just calmed down. When she walked out of the study, she saw Idris walking secretly toward the garden with another woman.
A hint of surprise flashed across her eyes, and she immediately trailed after them.
She dared not get too close, so she could not hear their conversation. She only saw both of them walk into a pavilion and have a conversation before the woman left.
She could feel the warmth of his hand, and it also warmed her cold heart somehow.
“The birthday dinner that the Pond Family prepared for you is over, but my birthday celebration for you has just begun.”
Silvia seemed a little surprised. “What did you prepare?”
It did not seem like Neil had prepared anything in the past few days. She thought that he would get Curtis to buy her a set of jewelry like he did in the past.
“Let’s go home first.”
Silvia did not probe further when she realized that he was not willing to disclose more information.
Soon, they reached the mansion. When they walked past the entrance, Neil covered her eyes.
“Close your eyes.”
“Why are you being so secretive?”
