296 Ch. 296 Jamie Arc (part 10) Jamie Is Pregnant
With great difficulty, Jamie woke up and broke away from the cold embrace of the man who had been fucking her all night. She put on her clothes and decided to leave the hotel without taking her things. She only brought a few hundred yuan and ordered a taxi to where her mother was buried.
After saying goodbye to her mother, Jamie went to the bank to withdraw some money so she could book a plane ticket to Hong Kong. She decided to find Loraine and force the girl to accept her. Now Jamie has no oneâthe only person who still holds her hope is Loraine alone. If the girl didnât want to take her, sheâd better kill herself and follow her mother.
Previously she had texted Loraine that she was coming to Hong Kong, so Jamie was sure her friend must have read her message after she arrived at Hong Kong airport.
Jamie didnât know where Loraineâs house was now because she knew Loraine had moved but had yet to tell her the address. So Jamie could only wait at the airport.
Luckily, it didnât take long for someone to tug at Jamieâs hand rather roughly, startling Jamie. She panicked even more when she saw that the person pulling her was a woman dressed in thick clothing and wearing a hat and sunglasses.
âJamie, what are you doing here?â
Jamie sighed at the sound of her friendâs voice. âI have no choice.â answered Loraine briefly using hand language. Without realizing it, tears were gathering at the corners of her eyes when she remembered what had happened last night.
Loraine gasped when her friend started sobbing, which confused her. Why is Jamie crying?
Ultimately, Loraine had no choice but to take Jamie to her home. Meanwhile, her mother-in-law was cradling Anxia, who was now starting to sleep in her grandmotherâs arms.
.....
âMother, I had to bring Jamie here.â
Madam Zhou smiled gently at that. âItâs okay, darling. Jamie can come here whenever she wants.â
Jamie returned the older womanâs smile kindly, then let Loraine take her hand and lead her into a room.
âAs you know, our house is not as big as it used to be, and we only have three rooms here. For the time being, you sleep here with Anxia and me.â
âSorry to bother you.â Jamie felt guilty because she came here without knowing Loraineâs actual condition. âWhat happened?â
âThis is all because of that bastard Yu Long. He attacked my father-in-lawâs small thriving company, and we went bankrupt. Luckily I met our school friends. Do you remember Cecilia Chung, our old school friend? It turns out that she also had married and now has a beautiful daughter.â
âCecilia?â
âWe met by chance four months ago, and she knows my familyâs condition. Long story short, she asked her husband to hire Yu Hue. Our lives were getting better, but we still had to stay low profile. I never even took Xiao Xia out of the house and kept her existence a secret from everyone. Only you and this family know I have given birth to Xiao Xia.â
âWhy?â
âYu Long⦠he is the biggest investor in Wongâs company. I donât want him to use Xiao Xia to pressure my family and me.â
Jamie held Loraineâs hand to comfort her and give her strength.
âHow about you? What happened? Why did you leave Singapore and come back here?â
Jamie didnât want to add to the burden on her friend and decided not to tell what Loraineâs brother had done to her.
âMy mother is gone.â That was the answer she gave which made Loraine also feel sad.
âIâm sorry to hear that... and Iâm sorry... I couldnât make it... Your mother is my mother too.â Loraine hugged Jamie very tightly, and both expressed their grief to each other because the only mother figure who cared for them and rebuked them when they were naughty had left this world.
âFrom now on, you are my family. You can stay here with us, and I wonât leave you.â now Loraine understood why Jamie had returned to China.
Loraine knew that Jamie had no one else, and she was the only one Jamie could rely on. Her protective instincts kicked in, and she decided to protect Jamie like she did her daughter.
Since then, Jamie had lived with the Zhou family and was well-received because everyone knew Jamieâs mother was their distant relative. Jamie also learned that the Zhou family experienced great grief when Zhou Yu Huan died in a car accident last year. Loraine once let slip that she suspected Yu Huanâs accident was not a mere accident, and her instincts said Yu Long was the one who caused the accident, but she had no proof.
It explained why Loraine wanted to keep Anxiaâs existence a secret and never took her daughter out of the house. It was no wonder Loraine often covered her face to avoid the Luen groupâs people across Hong Kong.
Loraine wished she could leave this country and go to a place where no one could find her family. However, she couldnât go to the airport because Yu Long would know where she was going. Besides, she didnât have the money to take the entire Zhou family out of the country.
It was then that Jamie decided to give Loraine her savings. But Loraine turned her down because the girl didnât want to use Jamieâs motherâs hard-earned money.
Several months later, Jamie often felt nauseous and easily tired. This made Madam Zhou suspect something and blurted out without a second thought. âAre you expecting, my dear?â
Jamie gulped, and cold sweat all over, remembering that horrible, unpleasant night.
âYouâre pregnant? Who got you pregnant?â Loraine was shocked and wondered who the babyâs father might be.
Jamieâs face turned as white as snow, and her hands gripped her belly as if she wanted to get rid of something in her stomach. She hated this... she didnât want to have that bastardâs child.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Jamie stood and walked towards the kitchen to get the madamâs medicinal pills. She wanted to abort this fetus!
âJamie! Wait a minute.â Loraine threw Jamieâs hand, so the pills she clutched were thrown all over the floor.
Madam Zhou didnât expect the situation to develop like this, so she decided to bring little Anxia into the room and let Loraine comfort Jamie, who looked like she had seen a ghost.
