"So how did Aaron pass away back then?"
Yara Reagan couldn’t help but ask.
Evelyn Clayton frowned deeply, gently put down the photo frame, and said softly, "It seems it was an accident too."
Although Shane Sinclair never mentioned it specifically, she overheard some chat from the nurses in the hospital, getting bits of the truth.
"It seemed to be a car accident. I’m not exactly sure. I only know that the Sinclair’s second miss passed away very suddenly. No wonder Mrs. Warren can’t accept it," Evelyn sighed silently.
Yara nodded in a daze, "No wonder... Such a cute and beautiful little girl, suddenly gone, which mother can take that?"
Evelyn didn’t respond, just looked down at her belly with a complex expression.
She gently touched her warm abdomen, a motion Yara noticed.
Yara sighed lightly and guided Evelyn to sit down in the living room.
"Just right, we should have a good talk," Yara said softly, her gaze drifting to Evelyn’s belly, "Have you decided whether to have this child?"
During the days of staying with Evelyn in the hospital, Yara practically lived with her, but they never talked about what to do with the child.
Evelyn went through regular check-ups, medication, and treatment, all in an orderly manner.
Even the Sinclair family already thought that Evelyn completely intended to have this child, especially Pauline, who was very happy, even talking about whether the child in Evelyn’s belly could be her grandchild in the future.
Evelyn didn’t answer directly at that time, just evaded it.
Yara realized then that Evelyn perhaps hadn’t made up her mind about whether to keep the child.
"Evelyn, you don’t have much time," Yara’s voice was heavy as she reached out to touch Evelyn’s warm belly, "It’s almost three months. Once it’s over three months, if you want to terminate the pregnancy, it will cause irreversible damage to your body—I’ve asked the doctor about this."
Evelyn looked at Yara in surprise, "When did you ask?"
Yara smiled helplessly, "During your time at the hospital, I asked around, seeing you didn’t want to talk about this, so I didn’t say much then. But just now, it seemed like because you’re about to become a mother, you empathize with Mrs. Warren, so I think it’s better for you to decide early."
Evelyn’s eyes were incredibly complex.
This child was undeniably James Grant’s and hers.
If it were two months ago, Evelyn would not hesitate to abort the pregnancy.
But now, she’s hesitating.
Remembering James’s red eyes as he left and his trembling lips, Evelyn felt as if a knife was cutting into her heart.
To make her terminate the pregnancy now is akin to killing her.
After observing Evelyn for a long time, Yara finally made up her mind.
"Actually, at first, I wanted you to terminate the pregnancy," Yara took a deep breath, "But Evelyn, if you really want to keep it, then let’s keep her!" Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel※fire.net
Evelyn looked at Yara in surprise, her eyes already slightly red.
Yara squeezed out a gentle smile, "This child is not just James Grant’s; she’s yours too. If you think you’d regret terminating her, then let’s have the baby! Isn’t it still me here? I can help you take care of her too!"
Tears couldn’t be held back anymore, Evelyn choked with a light laugh, "What, you want to help raise the child?"
"You forgot, back in school we said, whoever gets married and has a child first will be the godmother," Yara’s eyes were also red, but she showed a brilliant smile, "What, now you’re trying to back out?"
