Bye, My Irresistible Love

Chapter 542: He Has A Son 

Caroline’s POV:

One evening, Icey invited Nina and me to a bar.

My belly was getting bigger and bigger with each passing month. Charles prohibited me from going to bars, so I lied to him that I was just going to a bookstore with Nina.

 As soon as we entered the bar, the familiar scent of cigarette smoke and alcohol wafted into our nose. The putrid odor choked me, causing me to cover my mouth and cough. Icey swept away the smoke in front of her. 

“I’ll just finish this cigarette and I’m done.”

“Aren’t you supposed to be preparing for pregnancy, Icey?” I asked tentatively. 

“I don’t have to do that anymore. He already has a son.” Icey took a deep drag of her cigarette and continued, “You should all know that he once slept in a waitress. If he just still has some feelings for that girl, then I can bear the thought of it. After all, she was before me, and he and I were married because of our families’ interests and businesses. But I’ve never thought that he’d have a child with that waitress.” Nina and I exchanged glances when we realized the gravity of the matter.

“Did that waitress came to David with their child?” Nina guessed.

“Yes, and it seems like the child is suffering from a rare condition. The waitress said that she’s not capable of paying for the medical bills, so her only choice was to turn to David for financial aid.” Icey scoffed and stubbed out the cigarette as if it would help to vent her anger. Having heard what she said, I was rendered speechless. 

Though David and Icey indeed got married for mutual interests, as bystanders, we could tell that their relationship was getting deeper than before. Icey had been actively preparing for pregnancy these past months, hoping to bear David’s child. She even decided to quit smoking

But now that things had turn out this way, how could she take it?

“It’s going to depend on how David will deal with this matter.” Nina sat down next to Icey, and patted the latter on the shoulder. 

“The child is sick. Paying for the medical bills is easy. But what is he planning to do once the child recovers? Does David have a plan already?”

“Who knows what that guy is thinking? I’ve been a strong independent woman for over thirty years. Never have I imagined that I would experience something like this one day!” Icey chuckled bitterly and then she bent down to pour some wine for herself. 

After a while, David came in, visibly embarrassed. I shot him a cold glance.
