My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy) novel Chapter 105

Amy had been pregnant for three months, and she didn’t suffer morning sickness any longer. She ate much, and her baby was good in her belly.

Stephen was still living in the villa. Richard said that Amy loved the food cooked by Stephen, so he asked Stephen to stay and cook for Amy.

Richard was right, so Amy found it improper to insist on her father's moving out. She felt it quite pleasant to have her father keep her company at home.

"Amy, it's been three months. We should go to the hospital to have another check-up." Richard took a day off from his busy schedule and planned to take Amy to the hospital.

"I'll go myself. Business first." Amy thought she could go to the hospital on her own, and there was no need for anyone to keep her company.

"I'd better go with you. Anyway, I've finished my work today, and I don't have much to do tomorrow." Richard was still worried. He wanted to be there for Amy all the time.

Amy didn't insist. Since Richard said so, she believed he had arranged everything well.

As Amy was pregnant, Richard spent more time at home, but he often went out at night. Amy thought that he might have gone to see Allison, so she felt a little flustered.

"Mr. Carter, I’m sorry to tell you the bad news. You baby suffers from congenital physical deformity. We suggest abortion," The head of the gynecology department looked at the ultrasound report and said to Richard.

"What? Congenital physical deformity? Is it serious?" Richard got anxious.

"Yes. Sorry. So far, we cannot see his limbs." The head showed the B-ultrasound image to Richard.

Richard took a look. However, this was Amy's first baby. She was so happy to be a mother. If he suddenly told her to abort the baby, Richard was afraid that she would not be strong enough to stand it.

"Can't we wait any longer?" Richard said to the head.

"We can't wait any longer. Otherwise, the mother will suffer more and it will cause ill effects on her womb. So we have to abort the baby as soon as possible. You are still young. You can have more babies in the future." The head sighed and comforted. She didn’t want to see this either. But she had to be responsible for both the patient and the child. A child born with physical disability wouldn’t be the only one who suffered. So would everyone around it.

"I'll think about it. I need to go back and discuss it with my wife." Richard had a heavy heart.

"Alright, Mr. Carter. If you make up your mind, please contact me as soon as possible so that I can arrange the operation." She sighed again.

Richard walked out of the office, feeling sad and unfair.

"How's it going?" Amy had a hopeful expression on her face. She felt that her baby was fine and there was no need for any examination.

"Amy, are you hungry? I'll send you back first. I have something to tell you tonight." Richard had yet to figure out how to tell Amy. He wanted to go to the company and think about it.

"Alright, then I'll wait for you." Seeing that Richard's expression was terrible, Amy stopped asking.

Just as they left the gynecology department, Allison came out from the corner. She saw Richard bring Amy here, so she followed them. Now that they left, she entered the head’s office.

"Hello, Monica." Allison greeted the head.

"Allison? I haven't seen you for a few years, and you have grown taller and prettier." Monica Neville was a classmate of Allison's mother.

"Monica, you look as beautiful as before." Allison and Monica had a small talk.

After exchanged greetings, Allison got to the point.

"Monica, what happened to Richard just now? He looked a little pale."

"The woman coming with him was pregnant. It's supposed to be good news, but her baby suffers from physical disability. So she will have to abort it." Monica didn't hide anything from Allison and told her.

"Well, this is indeed quite pitiful." Allison knew that Monica was a kind person, so she pretended to feel sorry for Richard. After getting the answer, she said goodbye to Monica.

Allison went to the company and found that Richard was working in his office. He probably hadn't told Amy about the news yet. But she came up with a better idea. She could go and tell Amy about it.

"Richard, I know Amy is pregnant, but I don't mind it. Don't force her to have an abortion. Life should be valued." Amy suddenly got this message.

Soon, another came.

"I made a mistake. Amy, don't misunderstand."

Amy deleted both text messages. 'What does it mean? Will Richard ask me to abort my baby? Did he pretend to be nice to me before? But it doesn't look like so.'

A second later, Amy received a call. She saw that it was an unfamiliar number, so she did not answer it.

However, that person was persistent. She kept calling, so Amy could only pick it up.

"Amy, I made a mistake just now. Don’t get me wrong and never blame Richard. He has no other choice." It was Allison who called. Her voice sounded anxious, as if she were about to cry.

"What do you mean?" Amy asked her.

"Amy, I don't mean to hurt you. Richard...I don't want to. The baby is innocent." After Allison finished speaking, she hung up the phone in tears.

Amy held her phone and stared at it blankly. Did Richard intend to abort her baby because he didn't want Allison to become a stepmother? Amy was four months pregnant. How could he be so heartless?

Amy didn't come to her senses for a long time until Stephen called for her for meal.

The food Stephen and the nutritionist cooked was delicious, but Amy found it tasteless.

She didn't know how much she had eaten, but she couldn't have anymore. She had no appetite at all.

She wanted to see Richard and asked him why he wanted to kill her baby.

However, she couldn't be anxious. She must calm down and protect her baby. Her baby couldn't be killed. It meant everything for her. If the baby was aborted, her love and concretion towards Richard would disappear as well.

"Amy, why don't you turn on the light?" Richard walked into the bedroom and saw Amy sitting in the darkness.

"Richard, you're back." Amy called Richard in such a trembling voice that everyone would feel heartbroken once hearing it.
