Chapter 244: Leave the Johnson Family, Or Abort the Child

Amanda Smith slowly exhaled, her eyes slightly vacant. In fact, she had never thought about marrying Samuel Johnson with her child in tow; she knew it was impossible...

But hearing another woman confidently outlining her future marital bliss with Samuel in front of her still made her heart ache.

It felt as though something she had worked hard for, for a very long time, had been effortlessly taken away by someone else.

She didn't feel hatred, just a senseless emptiness and sadness.

"Of course," Tasha Moore spoke again, "asking an unmarried woman to have a child is indeed asking too much. I also don't wish for my future husband to have an illegitimate child he's never met. If Miss Smith is willing, I can take you to have an abortion. I'll pay for the procedure. How does that sound? If afterward you still want to stay with the Johnson family, I won't stop you, but I won't budge on the matter of the child. Well, isn't that generous of me?"
