Chapter 783 Abortion
Deirdre wondered when such days would end.
Sensing her emotional state, Tobey handed her a bottle of water and comforted her.
“Don’t worry. Brendan won’t be able to find US here since he doesn’t have any talons or fangs here. I’ll see if we can find another new place to stay in the coming next few days.”
“But are we going to keep on doing this?” Deirdre raised her head and smiled mockingly. “Brendan is hunting US. We are hiding here and there and have lost our freedom.”
She would not care about it if she was alone, but she could not bring herself to do this to Tobey.
Tobey petted her head and said, Tm sure he’ll give up at some point. When that happens, we can live here with our own identities.”
“He won’t give up,” said Deirdre. “From the fact that he can track me here, it’s obvious that he won’t give up until he catches me.”
She lowered her head for a moment, placed her hand on her stomach, and continued.
“I know what he wants, so…”
An idea surfaced in her head as she raised her head, her eyes brimming with light.
“Tobey, help me find a clinic where I can get rid of the baby.”
Tobey frowned. “Deirdre, you don’t have to do this.”
Deirdre shook her head and smiled bitterly. “I have to do this. I’ve been thinking of getting rid of the baby as soon as I stepped foot on this place, and now it’s time for me to take action.”
“But Deirdre, your body won’t be able to handle the procedure. Besides, the baby is innocent,” said Tobey. “It’s true that it’s Brendan’s kid, but Deirdre, it’s your baby too.”
Deirdre crossed her arms and said without any hesitation, “It’s okay. I’ve gotten a lot better since I’ve taken a lot of rest recently. Besides, I can’t afford to raise a kid with my current condition.”
“Deirdre…” Tobey sighed. “Let’s rest. We’ll talk again tomorrow.”
He was hoping that she would come to her senses and change her mind the next day.
Deirdre nodded. She threw herself on the bed, but sleep just wouldn’t come to her. She did not know if her fear had affected the baby in her womb or if they were somehow connected, but the baby seemed to know clearly that it was going to be abandoned by its mother, and her womb hurt all night.
Tobey knocked on the door and came into the room the next day. He was stunned when he saw how tired Deirdre was. “What’s the matter? Did you not sleep last night?”
“Yeah.”
“Is it because of the baby?” Tobey tried to talk Deirdre out of her decision. “Deirdre, I think you should keep the baby.”
Deirdre’s face was pale. What if Brendan refused to let them go if she kept the baby?
She knew very well that what Brendan wanted was the baby. As long as the baby was gone, he would no longer have any reason to come after them, and she could live a normal life again.
“Don’t worry. I can have another child in the future.”
Tobey was tongue-tied.
’Tobey, you should know everything that happened between Brendan and me.”
Deirdre continued, trying her best to convince him. ‘This baby will become a shackle that binds me. Its existence will bring me nothing but pain, so I have to do this. Can you help me, please?”
Tobey had nothing to say anymore.
“We can’t go to a hospital. Let me contact some of my friends and see if they know any reliable clinics around here.”
“Okay.”
The western zone was under regulation, and there were not many clinics. However, there were many clinics in the eastern zone. After Tobey found a reliable clinic, he brought Deirdre there.
