Golden Sea villa.
Without wasting any ti, Jinhai ca forward and said, "I want to divorce Huian imdiately."
Huian looked at him, stunned. "What?"
He ignored her and looked at his father. "Dad, Nana is pregnant with my child."
Liu Hai was looking gravely at Jinhaibut only on the outside. Inside, he was happily dancing and jumping around like a little child.
'Grandfather! Grandfather! I'm going to beco a grandfather!
He cleared his throat. "Hm. So what have you decided?"
At this point, Huian just had to interrupt. "There is nothing to decide! Jinhai, didn't you say that you don't ever want a child?"
Nana widened her eyes.
When did this happen?
"Don't you still understand?" Jinhai said indifferently. "I don't love you, so I didn't want to have a child."
He quickly clarified his stand as he didn't want Nana to misunderstand.
Xiang Wei frowned. "But, you don't love Nana either."
Jinhai glanced at him. "I do."
"WHAT!!?"
Grandma Liu roared. "Liu Jinhai!!!"
Everyone was aghast, hearing Jinhai openly admitting his feelings.
Liu Chunhua shook her head.
Xiang Qingge stuttered. "H-how is that possible?"
Huian looked at Jinhai, stupefied. Admitting his love for Nana in front of all elders was a huge step, and which he cannot take it back.
It was all out in the open now.
Previously, she was able to maintain the current status quo because even though her truth was exposed, Jinhai's feelings were not. It was still skeptical and ambiguous.
But now it was officially out. The wrongdoing that Huian committed, Jinhai's feelings for Nana, and Nana's pregnancy will not let Huian force him in this marriage anymore.
Chen Liling asked seriously, "Jinhai, is this true?"
"Yes." His voice held the resilience not to back out.
Nana clutched her dress. Yukito and Yukira tightly held her hand, giving her their full support.
Xiang Wei and Xiang Qingge looked at each other, appalled.
Chen Liling squinted her eyes. "Since when?"
"Always." The response was almost instantaneous.
Even she was taken aback with this revelation.
Huian was thunderstruck. She felt as if she has fallen from such a high place above, that with its impact, every one of her emotions, her dreams, and her hope was smashed into smithereens.
"Liu Jinhai, take that back!" Grandma Liu furiously commanded.
"No." he firmly said.
"One minute." Xiang Qingge interrupted. "So that ans you had feelings for Nana even when she was engaged to Chen Jianyu?"
"Yes."
At first, she was baffled. But then she realized that it was not impossible. Jinhai was forced to marry Huian. He is married, but he isn't in love. In effect, she snatched the chance from him to genuinely fall in love with soone, which happened now. It wasn't like Jinhai claid he loved Huian, but cheated on her by having feelings for another woman.
"I-I see" she mumbled.
"No, mom." Huian was sobbing. "You are misunderstanding. Jinhai is only saying this because Nana is pregnant. There are no feelings! He is forced to admit because she is carrying" she gritted her teeth, "his child."
Jing snorted. "If bro doesn't love sister Nana, then he would have said the sa thing to her that he said to you; that he doesn't want this child. There is no need to affirm his love in front of everyone."
"Stop it!!" She looked at Jinhai, crying and begging him. "Jinhai, pleaseYou cannot abandon like this"
Grandma Liu stomped her stick hard on the floor. "Liu Jinhai, what do you plan to do even if you get divorced?"
Jinhai looked at Nana, his eyes filled with warmth and tenderness. "Marry Nana."
Silence.
Nana's eyes brimd with hot tears.
"The child is mine, Liu Jinhai's. With all my heart, I take responsibility. He or she will get the recognition it deserves - as the heir of the Liu family."
For a mont, Grandma Liu felt as if she was taken back to the past. The only difference was that instead of Liu Jinhai today, it was Liu Hai at that ti.
Those unflinching eyes, that unyielding voice, and that unshakable determinationLiu Jinhai is mirroring it exactly the sa.
It was as if she could see the semblance of the young Liu Hai just standing beside Jinhai.
But wellthat is a short story for another ti.
Huian scread. "Ughhhhh!! What recognition!? It is an illegitimate child! That baby is disgusting! He is a b*stard child. Nana should abort it-"
*SLAP*
Everybody's mouth was hanging wide open because the person that slapped Huian was neither Jinhai nor the Xiang's.
It was Nana.
She was shaking in anger. Her eyes were red in tears and fuming mad. Her aura exuded that she was outraged.
Telling to kill my baby...
"Don't you dare call my child a stain. Don't you dare curse my child. I don't care if you feel unjust or whatnot, but I will not tolerate a single word against my baby."
Even Jinhai looked at her in disbelief. The kind and gentle woman had turned into a raging lioness.
And a lioness always protects her cub.
Huian watched her dumbfounded. Her cheek turned red after that harsh slap.
"How dare youWhat else do I call him if not a b*st-"
Before she could say any further, Nana slapped her once again.
"I told you I wouldn't tolerate a single word against my baby. I will keep on hitting you until you zip that foul mouth of yours. Who do you think you are to utter such profanity? Neither you have the right to call my child nas, nor can you tell to abort my baby. Do you get that?"
