Chapter 7

Annabelle’s p.o.v

“I’m not going to marry you!”

He must be losing his freaking mind.

How could he come up with such a thought!

Not once did it crossed my mind to marry him.

I will do anything except that!

I hit him again.

“I’m going to abort it and that’s final! You can’t change my mind!”

I got irritated with the thought of being connected to him for the rest of my life.

What the hell!

“You are carrying my child, Annabelle.” He spoke in the most calm manner.

“Could you not say it casually?” He said it like I was carrying it voluntarily.

“I don’t want this. I don’t want your baby!”

“It is innocent.” His tone was rather gentle than his usual nature.

“You can hate me. But the baby is innocent.” He repeated.

I lowered my head.

He is right.

It is indeed innocent.

It is alive, and I can’t just take it life.

Furthermore, it was a terrible thing to do…

I started to cry.

I had been thinking plenty of terrifying things to handle it.

To get rid of it.

I am even worse than Richard.

I am just twenty.

I have numerous things ahead of me.

I am too young to experience all of this.

“Give birth to the baby. If you don’t want it. I will raise it myself.” He said probably trying to soothe my nerves.

I whimpered silently, and none of us uttered a word to each other.

The drive was as silent as a graveyard.

Richard stopped in front of a restaurant.

It was two in the afternoon.

“Huh? Why are you stopping here?”

It was one of the famous restaurants in the city.

“It’s lunchtime.” He answered as he stepped out of the car and opened the car door for me, who was in a daze.

My frown got deeper.

“You want to go to the registry with me? I don’t mind that, too.”

“No, I don’t want to.” I stared as I shook my head.

“Then let’s have lunch. I’m starving.”

“I don’t have much appetite…”

I keep throwing up after a meal, so I would rather not show him that.

I have had enough embarrassment for today.

“Then you can watch me eat. I will drive you back after that.” He muttered as he chose a private area.

“I can just take…”

He tilted his head,

“I will wait.”

I changed my words obediently.

Richard ordered several dishes.

It smells perfect.

My stomach growled.

“It’s a light meal. Try to eat some, you can’t starve even if you don’t have an appetite. I will bring you to our family doctor and let him check up on you.”

“It’s not necessary. I went to the doctor, and she said it’s normal for the first semester.!”

“Is that so?”

He didn’t force me anymore.

I decided to eat.

Some small bites, though.

“This one is tasty!” I muttered.

I like sour dishes the most.

I took some more on my plate.

“Eat carefully, nobody is going to take it away from you.”

A minute ago, I said I had no appetite, now I am clearing the plate.

It was just the dishes that suited my taste.

I ate quietly.

Richard put the dish I liked on my plate.

He was eating quietly too as he stole glances at me, but I tried to pretend not to know.

“Ah… Exc…” I covered my mouth with my
palms.

I ate too happily that I forgot these stupid pregnancy effects.

I rushed to the restroom.

Richard followed me from behind.

He entered the restroom and held my hair
carefully.

Preventing it from getting dirt.

“Does this always happen every time you eat?”

I nodded, my face was a bit flustered after throwing up.

I washed my mouth, feeling a bit embarrassed that you had to do it in front of him.

“Thank you.” I appreciated.

We both went back to the table, but I didn’t eat again.

He paid for the meal and drove me back to my family residence.

I did not know what to say to him.

“I have to leave the city for a few days. I will be back soon. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to call. I will get it arranged.”

“Okay.”

It was nice.

Very pleasant.

“Don’t have a weird idea of aborting the baby. Let’s talk later after I come back.” He warned.

“Stop saying it, someone will hear you.” I whispered as I looked around cautiously.

“If you act stupid behind my back. I will get back at you later, and you won’t like it.!”

“”Whatever.”

I thought he could behave like a nice person.

******************Time skip***************

“Now I know it’s my brother, I want to ki*ll him even more.” Abigail cursed.

“I plan to murder him myself, and don’t even try to stop me.”

I did not know what he really thought about the pregnancy, all he said he would be responsible for it.

She confronted me after the scenario Richard played in the school.

I had to finally admit that it was her
brother who impregnated me.

“Was it when you started to behave weird? Avoiding us and all?”

“Yes…” I said.

I had nothing to hide anymore.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I don’t want anyone to know at all. I hate your brother so much for bullying you.”

“He is a jerk… I understand… But don’t you want to keep it? He is a jerk but also right, the baby is innocent…”

“I don’t know… My parents don’t know yet, I don’t think they can accept this.”

To hear that their lovely and obedient daughter is pregnant…. They could go crazy…

I have never caused trouble for my parents.

I was always listening to them.

“Let’s sue my brother instead. I don’t mind. Let’s sue him.”

“I would rather not make this big… Besides, this is very embarrassing for me. Getting pregnant before marriage.”

What will people say?

What will my family say?

“I’m sorry.” She hugged me tightly.

“But when did you meet him?”

She knows that I wasn’t close to her brother.

I hate her brother, she knows that for sure.

“Gabriel texted me to come to a club… But he already left when I arrived. There was only Richard there.”

Like he was waiting for his prey…. which was me.

“Oh, that’s weird… Why would Gabriel text you if he knew he was going to leave before you arrived?”

That time I did not think it was weird at all.

But now that Abigail has pointed it out…. It was indeed strange.

I replied to his text saying I was on my way.

And when I arrived, I met only Richard there…. I wanted to leave, but he convinced me that Gabriel was going to come back.

I bit your lower lip.

Could it be that Richard texted me with Gabriel’s phone?

Why would he do that?

The more I thought about it, the more
strange it became.
