Chapter 1820

Author: Anastasia Marie
"Seems like something's bothering you. Are you still worried about the baby?" Serenity asked.

"How could I not be?" Lisa responded with a wry smile. "My parents know about the baby now and left the decision up to me. Terry has said he's willing to take responsibility and marry me.

"After thinking about it, marrying him seems like the best option. Not only will it look good, but the baby won't be illegitimate. People around us would probably envy me for landing a wealthy husband rather than mock me."

"But you're still hesitant, aren't you?" Serenity observed, noting the lingering doubts in her friend's expression.

"Should I... get back together with Terry?" Lisa asked.

"The question you should be asking is whether you still love Terry," Serenity countered.

Did she still love him?

Lisa pursed her lips tightly. If she didn't love him, perhaps she wouldn't be so troubled and might have easily opted for an abortion.

Even without a direct answer, Serenity could guess Lisa's feeling

    But Lisa was certain of one thing: if she didn't take this chance, she would surely regret it in the future!As she approached the villa, Lisa parked her car to the side and was about to get out when she suddenly saw another car overtake hers and stop at the villa's entrance.And the person who got out was... Monica!Lisa's eyes widened in shock.Why was Monica here at this time? Hadn't she and Terry broken up?What followed only added to her shock. The security guards at the entrance respectfully stepped aside. One took Monica's car keys to park her vehicle, while the other opened the gate to let Monica into the villa.Monica didn't even exchange more than a few words with the guards, indicating that such occurrences were routine and they had an understanding.Lisa was stunned as she watched this scene unfold, feeling a sharp sting in her eyes.She exited her car in a daze and walked towards the guards, her mind swirling with questions. Why was Monica allowed in so familia

    "Hey, watch what you say. If Mr. White finds out you're gossiping behind his back, you might lose your job," the other guard warned.The guard who had been advising Lisa quickly shut his mouth and said no more. The two of them then treated Lisa as if she were invisible.Lisa felt an increasing chill enveloping her. The words she had wanted to say to Terry, the reasons for her visit, all seemed to slip away from her mind, leaving a blank void.She walked back to her car slowly but didn't start the vehicle to leave. Instead, she just sat there and looked toward the villa.Maybe... Monica was just there for a short visit, or perhaps... it was merely some unfinished business between White Maple Group and the Hart family...Lisa kept making up excuses for Monica's presence, but convincing herself became increasingly difficult as time passed.When her phone rang, she saw it was a call from her mom, and her eyes immediately welled up with tears."Mom," she answered, trying to keep her

    Monica watched Terry's agony with a cold gaze. This man, who had turned her into a laughingstock and led the Hart family to its downfall, was now in such pain.Yet, she felt no joy.Instead, there was a sense of loss.This man was enduring inhuman suffering all because of Lisa! The Blood Parasite targeted only Lisa. He could have chosen any other woman in the world and avoided the pain of removing the curse. Yet, he was willing to risk death for Lisa!And what about her? After all these years, she had gained nothing!What was so special about Lisa that Terry would go to such lengths? That woman seemed so ordinary. She never had to make any sacrifices, right?!"Terry, is it really worth enduring such agony for Lisa? She doesn't even know the pain you're going through!" Monica crouched down in front of him and said, "If you don't survive tonight, you'll die. Even then, she might not shed a single tear for you. In her heart, you're just the traitor who abandoned her."It seem

    Lisa consoled herself internally, but the tears she had suppressed all night finally betrayed her and streamed down her cheeks.Could she really walk away from feelings that she hadn't fully let go of in the past?If that were possible, why was she in such agony now? Why couldn't she stop the tears?What was this pain in her chest?"Lisa, if I tell you I've only ever loved you, would you believe me?""Lisa, just give me a little time. That's all I need.""Lisa, how are you going to take responsibility for me?""Lisa... Lisa..."His voice, his words from the past, kept echoing in her ears. Yet, they felt so distant to her now...Finally, Lisa started the car. She turned it around and drove away from the villa.-Lisa knew she had to head to the office. It wasn't a day off, and she needed to work.She tried hard to compose herself, to stop the tears. If she continued, her blurred vision would prevent her from seeing the road ahead.Just then, a scooter suddenly darted in f

    Lisa closed her eyes with a bitter feeling.Perhaps it was fate that she encountered this accident now, allowing the child to leave her through this ordeal. Maybe this was the best ending... to let the child go and sever any ties between her and Terry!The car quickly arrived at the hospital. Gale carried Lisa swiftly into the emergency room. He briefly explained the situation in the simplest terms and emphasized, "She's pregnant! Please, do everything possible to save the child!"Lisa was placed on a gurney and rushed into the emergency room for urgent treatment. Gale sat anxiously on a bench outside.If Lisa hadn't asked him not to inform her parents before going in, he probably would have already called Austin and Hersha. But Lisa hadn't mentioned Terry. Should he contact Terry?Gale was indecisive. Informing Terry could mean access to better medical resources, given Terry's capabilities. It would ensure Lisa got better treatment if necessary.While he was pondering, h

    The doctor had mistakenly assumed Gale was the father of the child Lisa was carrying.Before Gale could clarify, Lisa said, "He's not the child's father, so I can make the decision myself. Doctor, please arrange for the abortion."Hearing Lisa's firm stance, the doctor began to respond, "Alright then, I...""I am the child's father. What if I don't agree to the procedure?" A voice interrupted the doctor.With those words, a tall figure appeared in the doorway.Lisa stared in disbelief as Terry approached her. He was dressed in a simple white shirt and black trousers. His hair was slightly disheveled, and his shirt collar was crooked. His appearance indicated that he had been in a rush to come here.Terry looked at Lisa lying on the hospital bed. He had intended to contact her that morning to share that they could finally be together and to reveal everything about the past!Yet, he hadn't expected to hear from Gale about her accident and then arrive to find her requesting an abor

    "But... ""It's okay, Gale. Let me have a word with him. I'd like to make some things clear to him," Lisa interjected.Hearing that, Gale finally walked away. However, before leaving, he couldn't help but tell Terry, "Mr. White, Lisa hasn't fully recovered yet. If you have anything to say to her, please be civilized. Don't grab her."Terry completely ignored Gale. His eyes never left Lisa.Letting out a sigh, Gale eventually left the hospital room.Now, only Lisa and Terry remained in the room."Are you really getting an abortion? You're so desperate to cut ties with me?" his cold voice filled the room."Yes," she took a deep breath and replied firmly."You won't even give me a chance now because I broke up with you in the past when you were severely injured?" he questioned."Since we already broke up, why should we get back together? The baby will only become a burden," she stated.A pang of pain flickered in his eyes. She had no idea how much he looked forward to the baby.

    She reminisced about the playful conversations they used to have, teasing each other about the future. "Terry, do you think we'll still be kissing like this when we're old and gray? Would we ever get tired of kissing?" she asked. He replied with tenderness, "We'll never get tired of kissing. Even when we're old, I'll still keep kissing you. I'll continue to kiss you until the moment we close our eyes and leave this world."But... that would never happen now. It was already impossible five years ago, and it was certainly impossible now.Lisa didn't resist or push him away. She allowed Terry to deepen the kiss.To her, it felt like a goodbye kiss. She was bidding their relationship goodbye.When the kiss eventually ended, Lisa heard Terry's hoarse voice pleading with her, "Lisa, you still love me, don't you? Do you have any idea how badly I've wanted to kiss you like that?"After five long years, he could finally touch her again without experiencing extreme pain."Lisa, listen to

    “……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

    Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me!

    "Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

    Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

    "Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

    Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

    But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

    Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

    "Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
