Female Novel
Chapter 684
"Josiah didn't file a lawsuit to get Anne back, one reason being that you've already raised her for almost five years, the otherbeing our financial situation and living conditions allow us to continue taking care of her. If | remove the contraceptive ring andget you pregnant, it'd be easy for Josiah to win the lawsuit and get Anne back, if he does decide to do so."
He spoke in a low, restrained voice. | couldn't sense any emotions in his words other than a hint of resignation in his tone.
Under the circumstances of equal living conditions and social status, the situation seemed relatively fair when it came to the law.After all, none of us were good characters to offend.novelbin
Seeing that | was silent, he held my hand in his and said softly, "There will be plenty of opportunities for us to have children in thefuture. Don't worry."
"But it's unhealthy for your body to have it for a prolonged period of time. Besides, even if you take it off, we're not in a rush toget pregnant, so it's fine, isn't it?" Even if Josiah did want to get Anne back, it was not necessary for us to remain childless tocounteract. If things got dire, | could seek Uncle Charles for help. | was sure Uncle Charles’ influence would be strong enough tosuppress Josiah.
He smiled and asked, "Are you worried about me?"
| pursed my lips; that went without saying. "Hendrix, you have to think about this carefully. I'm serious. If we want kids, it's best todo it within these few years. If we drag it out for too long, I'd be treated as a woman of advanced maternal age and two livescould be lost at once; it's not worth it. Then, you'll have to remarry."
Though what | said was partially true but mostly false, it was still plausible. | knew why he was unwilling to remove thecontraceptive ring. It was in consideration of me and Anne.
He knew that Anne meant a lot to me, and that if she left me, my condition could worsen. Thus, he was able to deal with nothaving his own child.
But a human's life was so long and we've only journeyed through a third of it. Love is eternal simply because of the present.If it was possible to leave behind good memories while still in love, that would be a true blessing.
He held me in his arms and said in a husky voice, "No!" | didn't really know what his response meant; if he was referring to losingtwo lives at once or remarrying.
That night, | slept extremely soundly, having consecutive dreams intermittently. But | woke up remembering none.It was nine when my eyes fluttered open. It was such a long slumber.| was shocked to find Hendrix still in the room. "Don't you have to go to work today?"
He smiled, still in his comfortable tailor- made royal blue pajamas. "It's the weekend, I'm taking a break today to keep youcompany!"
I smiled, but when | moved my body, | felt a little wet underneath. My heart skipped a beat.
It seemed that | had stained the bed. | stretched out my hand to confirm it. When | felt the dampness on the bed sheet, | wascertain.
