Chapter 332
You Hit My Heart
Joyce instantly understood that she and Luther had never been
divorced.
Charlotte couldn't take the pressure anymore.
As Joyce saw how she was kneeling and also kowtowing, Joyce felt so
embarrassed.
"Charlotte, get up and we can talk. You shouldn't think about it. It's not
good for the baby in your belly.â Joyce advised, âI know what you
mean. Too many accidents happened some time ago, I was not able to
divorce Luther in time, I know it has caused you trouble, and I am sorry.
But you don't have to get down on your knees to me, it was my
responsibility.â
"Hurry up and get up, it's not nice to be seen. Let's sit down and talk,
shall we?"
"No, I can feel that his attitude towards me has changed, and I worry
every day that he will change his mind. I can't sleep every day. He
said..." she cried, "He swore to me, said he loved me, swore he would
marry me, and I gave him everything. We also ... had this child. But
now, I am so worried that he will change his mind. I am afraid he will
abandon me and not want me and the child in my womb."
Charlotte couldn't stop crying and her eyes were swollen like walnuts.
Joyce took out a tissue to wipe her tears, but the more she wiped, the
more she cried.
"Joyce, I can't live without this baby.â Charlotte moved forward on her
knees, hugging Joyce's legs as if she was afraid, and refusing to let go.
"The doctor said that my uterus was in a bad condition when I had the
child and if I donât give birth to this baby, perhaps I won't have another
chance. I want this baby. I want this child, and I can't live without this
child. I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't have asked you for something like
this, everyone has the right to pursue their own happiness, but I'm
really scared. Ugh." Charlotte cried and cried, and in the end she could
barely breathe.
Joyce squatted down and sighed as she subconsciously stroked the
small of her back.
Who would have known that she was actually pregnant as well?
Charlotte worried that her child would be born without a father.
But her child was the one destined to be born without a father.
What a sin.
"Charlotte, I'm sorry. It's a little late, but I'm already looking for a place,
and I'll move out the day after tomorrow after the board meeting." Joyce
promised.
"Really?" Charlotte looked up, her tearful eyes filling up at her as if she
couldn't believe it.
"I promise!" Joyce nodded, "You get up.â
Saying that, Joyce pulled Charlotte up from the floor with force and
helped her sit on the couch.
After Charlotte sat down on the couch, Joyce handed her a tissue to
wipe her tears.
Immediately, she walked out of the box again, ordered a hot cup of
oolong tea and a glass of lemon juice.
By the time the waiter brought up the tea, Charlotte had finally stopped
sobbing.
Joyce pushed the hot oolong tea in front of Charlotte, "Have some tea,
don't cry.â Although she and Charlotte grew up in the same orphanage
as children, she and Charlotte did not really know much about each
other. Perhaps it was because she was introvert herself, or perhaps
she and Charlotte really didn't get along.
Even later, after the two entered the same university, they didnât meet
often.
Instead, they started to communicate and meet more frequently from
the time they started their internship at R&S Group.
She did not know much about Charlotte's temperament or past, nor did
she know how Charlotte met Luther.
However, none of that mattered anymore. She didn't want to get
between them.
âI didn't mean to take your place either. Things happened suddenly
recently. I'm sorry, I'll take care of this soon. You have been worrying
too much. It's not good for the fetus, you should take care of your
health and take care of yourself.â
