A Call That Changed Her Entire Life

Emily finally woke up. Her eyes met Jacob's and his icy stare brought shivers down her spine.

"Emily Bai, you are pregnant." With a blank expression, he looked at her and said it, as if words were squeezed out of his mouth.

Pregnant?

She could hardly believe her ears, and unconsciously her eyes widened, "I'm pregnant? How come..."

Subconsciously, she reached for her belly; it was still flat, but she didn't expect that there was life lurking inside her body.

"It's two months old."

Jacob seemed to mock her. Emily looked up at him with furrowed brows, "You don't believe it's yours, right?"

A fog of pain flashed across his eyes and he asked, "You think it's mine? If you say yes, I will believe you. So what's your answer?"

She was stunned. However, she was sad since she was unable to give him an exact answer.

The baby was two months old, so the time of her conception might have coincided with the day she was with Jack.

"See? Even you are not sure if it's mine." He gave a mocking smile.

She closed her eyes and was silent for a long time before finally asking, "So? What do you want now?"

"I want you to have an abortion." He said almost without any hesitation.

Pain rose in her heart. Her hand on her belly seemed able to feel the existence of the baby, "I won't do that. It's my baby."
