My Rich Hot and Infertile or Maybe Not Husband

Chapter 1020

Shawn seemed a bit guilty, mumbling, “I was in a meeting and didn’t hear the phone ringing. What happened?”

His words rang a bell. Back when Shawn was having a fling with her, whenever Caitlyn called, Shawn would always divert the conversation, even if they were in bed together.

The way he spoke, his lying tone, all the same.

Helen was so furious she was shaking. She cut to the chase and asked, “Why hasn’t she had the surgery yet?”

Shawn beat around the bush. The doctor said her current physical condition isn’t suitable for an abortion. It could be life–threatening.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Helen sternly asked. “When can she have it then?”

Shawn replied, “Once her health improves a bit, let’s see what the doctor says If the doctor says no, we can’t force her to do it.”

Helen clenched her fists, scoffing internally Since when did he become so moral? When she initially suggested taking action against Caitlyn, he pretended to be hesitant, but as soon as he realized he might end up in prison, he didn’t hesitate at all

Helen swallowed her anger, keeping her voice steady, “Shawn, do you really want to keep the baby?”

Shawn was taken aback and quickly denied, “How could that be? I’ve already promised you that as long as you take care of your pregnancy, I’ll handle things with Lucilla I do like kids, but we’ve been

together for so many years, I have to consider your feelings. Don’t overthink things, just focus on your pregnancy

Helen sneered internally but spoke gently, “Shawn, if the risk of the abortion is so high, we won’t do it.”

Shawn was stunned, thinking he misheard, “What what did you say?”

Helen said, “If you really want this baby, keep it. But you have to promise me that once the baby is born, this woman will leave J City forever I’ll treat her child as my own, as long as you can assure me of this. I’m willing to accept the child.”

Angel exclaimed in shock, “Mom, have you lost your mind-

Helen shot her a stern look and Angel shut up

Had her mom gone mad from anger? Willing to raise someone else’s child? Had pregnancy made her stupid?

Shawn was left dumbfounded by Helen’s sudden change, even feeling a bit wary

Based on his understanding of Helen, she wasn’t this forgiving.

“You why the sudden change of heart?”

“What else can I do if I don’t? Helen said, her voice choked with tears. “If I keep pushing you, one day you’ll leave me just like you left Caitlyn. I’m not compromising. I just don’t want to lose you‘

Shawn was touched and regretful hearing her sobs. He knew very well how Helen felt about him after two decades together.

In fact, Shawn knew Lucilla was too young to settle for being someone’s mistress. If she hadn’t gotten pregnant, he had planned to keep his distance.

But the existence of this child made him hesitate.

Recently he had been quite troubled by this, but now that Helen had figured things out, it was the best outcome for him

This eased Shawn’s mood a bit, he said gently, “It’s great that you think this way. Don’t worry, once the baby is born, I’ll make her leave We’ll never see each other again

Helen suddenly said, “We should have a wedding ceremony”

Shawn was startled by the suggestion, frowning, “Why bring this up all of a sudden?

Helen had brought up having a wedding ceremony more than once, especially during the few months after they got their marriage license. But because they chose to marry in secret, she lowered the frequency of her suggestions after understanding the situation.

But now she was suggesting it again, and clearly, Shawn wasn’t thrilled

Ever since the news broke that Angel was his illegitimate daughter, almost everyone knew about his relationship with Helen, his affair, his second marnage. Shawn always felt ashamed

So every time Helen suggested having a wedding ceremony, he would just brush her off.

Helen knew what he was thinking, she said softly, “Shawn, here’s what I’m thinking. We can announce my pregnancy at our wedding ceremony, saying I’m expecting twins. So when we bring that child home, it won’t raise suspicions. I can accept this child, but I can’t accept people poking their noses into our mamage Do you understand what I mean?”

Helen’s intentions were pretty clear.
