426 This Is What I Owe You
Isabella was silent for a while. “As long as Joseph is honest with me, even if Stella is pregnant with his child, I will accept it. I will be sad, but I won’t care about his past. I said that I can’t interfere with his past...”
Isabella retracted her arm without any sense of security. “David, am I stupid now? Why don’t I have any principles? I even feel that as long as he loves me, it doesn’t matter.”
David shook his head. “No! You are too principled! If you think it doesn’t matter, why do you care about the truth? As long as he will do his duty as your husband, wouldn’t it be okay?”
Isabella was silent again. “I still want to know the truth. I don’t want to be suspicious of him...”
“Well, as expected, women in love are stupid.” David patted Isabella on the shoulder. “No matter what, Jane and I will support you in the end. Do what you want to do. Remember what I said. Even if there is an unacceptable truth, don’t be too impulsive.”
“Yes.”
Sure enough, the car did not come to the Globe Building but went to the Ayanna Hospital in Peace City.
Isabella looked at the well-decorated treatment building and felt her heart go cold a lot.
She waited downstairs, thinking about whether she should follow up and take a look, but she hoped that Joseph would only go up to visit Stella for a few minutes to comfort her, and then quickly leave. It was not a lie she imagined.
.....
Ten minutes later, Joseph quickly went downstairs, but Isabella wasn’t happy at all because he was cuddling Stella in his arms.
On a hot day, Stella was still wearing a long-sleeved shirt. Joseph pulled her shirt and carefully covered her lower abdomen. “I’ve turned off the air conditioner in the car, but you should be careful not to catch a cold.”
Stella immediately nodded and smiled sweetly at Joseph. “Thank you, Joseph.”
“Never mind. I owe you this.” Joseph sighed softly. “This matter started because of me. Let me settle it.”
...
The black Rolls-Royce arrived at the Maternal and Child Health Hospital in Peace City.
Isabella felt her heart sink.
Joseph protected Stella as they got out of the car and went upstairs. Seeing her future husband being so considerate to other women, Isabella could no longer hold back. She kept following them. When she saw that the floor they stopped at was the obstetrics department, her heart continued to sink.
There were many women in the hall of the obstetrics department. There were pregnant women with happy faces. Some young girls were holding the list excitedly when they were just pregnant. Joseph seemed to have helped Stella with an appointment with a doctor. Stella went straight to the innermost examination room without waiting in line.
Isabella stood in the corner of a nearby corner and observed secretly.
After Stella entered the examination room, Joseph started to walk around from time to time. He seemed to be very anxious. He even took a cigar and wanted to smoke. After thinking about it, he seemed to remember that this was the hospital and put it back in.
Isabella stood in the corner of the wall, and her brain had stopped thinking.
She didn’t dare to imagine anything. She just waited there and wanted to get a clear answer from their conversation or behavior. It was like waiting for a verdict.
After a while, the door to the examination room opened. The doctor walked out and whispered a few words to Joseph. Joseph immediately frowned and said calmly, “In that case, it’s better to abort it. Anyway, I don’t want Stella to keep this child.”
“Okay.”
Just as the doctor finished speaking, Stella suddenly rushed out of the examination room and pounced in front of Joseph. She knelt beside him and cried, “Joseph, let me keep this child! He is innocent, don’t be so cruel! Please!”
Isabella’s heart trembled.
“It’s not that I’m cruel.”
Joseph leaned over to support Stella and said calmly and decisively, “The doctor said that you have been bleeding irregularly recently. Moreover, you have used a lot of drugs to treat mental problems. Even if this child survives, he may be deformed in the future.”
“I don’t care! He is my first child. Even if nobody wants him, I want him!”
“Stella, calm down.”
Joseph comforted her gently and patiently, “The appearance of this child was a mistake in the first place. His existence will bring us endless trouble... Why don’t we just pretend that this child never appeared?”
When Isabella heard this, she shed tears. Although Joseph was trying to persuade Stella to abort the child, she didn’t feel relaxed at all.
“No, no, no. I’ll raise the baby by myself. It’s the only thing I can rely on to survive...”
Stella suddenly shrank her hands in fright, looking a little desperately frightened, “Forget it, Joseph, you don’t have to worry about this matter. Just treat it as if it has nothing to do with you. In the future, I will not complain about you because of this child. I will not tell him anything about his biological father, so please let me keep this child. Please...”
Joseph frowned and shook his head. He said seriously, “It’s not that I can’t keep him, it’s that he might not be able to survive at all! Why do you have to put our lives in danger again because of such a life that is impossible to survive at all? Isabella and I are going to get married. I love her. I don’t want her peaceful life to be painful because of me!”
“So you came to kill my child for her happiness?”
Stella screamed, “I already said that this matter has nothing to do with you, Joseph! Leave! Don’t touch my child!”
“Stella! You have to be rational!”
When Isabella heard this, tears fell. Although Joseph was trying to persuade Stella to abort the child and said that he wanted to take care of Isabella’s happiness, she did not feel relaxed at all.
Joseph had a relationship with Stella and even had a child who might not be able to live.
Seeing Stella desperately trying to protect the baby, Isabella’s tears fell.
She didn’t know whether she should choose to be as cruel as Joseph and pretend to be happy that she didn’t know anything. Or should she stand up and tell Joseph to help this child live as much as possible?
Her position was very awkward. She couldn’t choose for the time being. She just felt suffocated in her chest and didn’t want to see this cruel scene again.
Then she turned around and saw Cedric standing not far away.
Isabella was stunned. She wiped her tears and left Cedric expressionlessly. Cedric immediately grabbed her wrist and whispered, “Did you see and hear it? Did you get the truth you wanted?”
Isabella looked at Cedric in silence. “Why are you here?”
