Let's Get Married novel Chapter 294

The light in the bathroom is not as bright as outside. Refusing to believe the result she got just now, Lily takes out a test stick to have another check. When she sees the same result, she almost falls down from the toilet with cold sweats falling down from her forehead. She struggles to put the pants on with all her strength. When she stands up, she suddenly falls back onto the toilet again as there is no strength left in her body.

She subconsciously puts her left hand on her lower abdomen. Although it is very flat, it is now bearing a little baby inside.

It’s awesome. At the same time, she has an inexplicable feeling, as if she and the baby are connected by some intangible magic and that her breath is carrying the breath of baby. Only mothers can understand such a special and fantastic feeling.

When did it come into being?

Lily didn’t know that she has been pregnant for several months. She tries to recall that her menstrual periods came regularly every month and had seldom been delayed. Although there was a delay, it was just several days later than the regular period. Rex always wore condom when had sex with her. She thinks about it carefully, and then recalls that last time in the hospital, as he was very tired and she herself was under great stress, they were desperate for seeking solace from each other and had an extremely enjoyable sex, during which they forgot to take any contraception methods. Later on, they were all busy with the case so she forgot to take pills.

It has been more than a month since the last sex, and her period hasn’t come this month.

Lily doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry – she hasn’t expected such a coincidence.

She is bearing the child of Rex.

Her mind completely goes blank. Various kinds of turbulent thoughts fill her mind, making her unable to think. Actually, to ensure whether she is pregnant or not, what she needs to do now is to have a check in the hospital; after all, there might be some mistakes on the result of the test stick. However, at this time, it’s obviously impossible.

As long as she goes to the hospital, Rex will definitely know that she is pregnant. She can’t take this kind of risk because she dares not to trust him anymore.

What will he do if she knows that she is bearing his baby?

They haven’t married each other, so she is not his legal wife and what they did before were nothing more than dating. Now she is a suspected murderer, it is possible that he may require her to have an abortion; otherwise, things would get messier.

Thinking of this, Lily feels so chilly and depressed with her hand stroking her soft belly.

She can just keep it secret. Since she has got the result from the test sticks, plus her morning sickness, she is probably pregnant. She must accept this result and believe it.

She loves Rex. So when she learned that she is bearing his child, she was shocked yet overjoyed that she almost cried out. Although she is unwilling to admit this and pretends in front of others, she can’t convince herself.

Such contradictory and helpless feeling almost drives her crazy. Thinking about these Lily even becomes breathless; she can't imagine how he would react if he is informed of her pregnancy.

Would he pick her up, spin her, kiss her forehead and say ‘Wow, we finally have our baby’? Or would he give her a cold shoulder and say ‘It comes at an inopportune time.”

Will he feel delighted that he is going to be a father?

Lily’s eyes get red when imaging such a happy scene, but in the next second, she shakes her head, thinking, “No… He…will not feel delighted.”

Even she herself is clear that the baby comes untimely, let alone Rex. He is always rational and thoughtful. Considering her current situation, it is inappropriate to bear a child.

Should she have an abortion?

This thought gives her a wave of contractions. Although it is just an embryo in her belly, it is really a baby. It makes her heartbroken when thinking of killing it.

She likes it and wants to keeps it, but she can’t do it! What a tragedy!

Lily finally fails to hold back the tears in her eyes. Fearing that she would cry out, she quickly pulls a stack of paper to cover her mouth, and tightly grit her teeth to hold back the groans. But she is trembling.

She gently puts her hand on her belly and tries hard to hold back the groans, and thinks to herself, “My dear baby, please give mommy some time. Just some more time…”

Rex has recently been busy with Lily’s lawsuit while worrying about her who is now detained in the police office. As the case is about to come to trial, she will have to be transferred to the detention center in the suburbs. In order to evade the reporters, they specially choose to send her over at night.
