Chapter 631: 631. Abort the child…_1 Chapter 631: 631. Abort the child…_1 Helen lendy looked down and gently touched her flat belly, her voice hoarse as she asked, “How is the baby?”
Her emotions sounded very calm, and with her eyebrows and eyes lowered, one couldn’t see the emotions in her eyes.
“Chief Wood said there are signs of a threatened miscarriage and that you’ll need to be hospitalized for observation for a while until the baby is stable before you can be discharged,” Adam Jones did not conceal this from her, nor did he ntion whether or not to keep the child, but simply held her hand tightly and said seriously,
“You’re too skinny now, lacking nutrition, how can the baby be okay?”
As she spoke, she rose and walked out, “Wait for a mont, I’ll go buy you sothing to eat.”
“Elly.”
Just as Elly Campbell turned to leave, Helen lendy grabbed her, her fingertips very cold, as if ice had been poured into her blood.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing Helen lendy biting her lower lip, her voice hoarse, she said, “Let’s… abort the baby.”
When she finished saying this, her voice clearly trembled.
Even Elly, upon hearing these words, her hand trembled slightly.
“You… have you decided?”
Seeing the slight redness at the bottom of Helen lendy’s eyes, she knew she couldn’t bear it.
Yet she heard her lower her gaze, hiding all her emotions, and say with a trembling voice, “Yes, I’ve thought it through.”
“I thought I could be like you, to give birth to the child on my own, to raise him on my own. But Elly, I’ve realized… I’m not capable.”
She gripped the blanket tightly, almost with all her strength, the bedsheet wrinkling under her grasp, “I can’t even take care of myself, how can I take care of a child.”
“Not to ntion raising him to be an adult, Elly, I don’t have the ability, I can’t take good care of him…”
At this mont, Elly Campbell didn’t know how to comfort Helen lendy. The existence of this child wasn’t sothing she could decide.
After a mont of silence, she looked at Helen lendy and asked softly, “Is the child Harry Hall’s?”
Although she was asking her, Elly Campbell was quite certain in her heart.
No one else besides Harry Hall.
Helen lendy’s body stiffened a bit but didn’t hide it from Elly Campbell, nodding.
“What does he think?”
Elly Campbell’s tone was a bit unpleasant.
But she saw Helen lendy smile bitterly and shake her head, “He doesn’t know about the child, and I never intended to let him know.”
Upon hearing this, Elly Campbell furrowed her brow, “Why not let him know, the child is partly his, he should take responsibility.”
“What about you?”
Helen lendy raised her eyes to ask her, “Elly, back then… why didn’t you let Adam Jones know about the child’s existence?”
Elly Campbell was taken aback by Helen lendy’s question, and after a long while, she pressed her lips together and said, “I didn’t want to get entangled with him, but I didn’t want to abort the child, either.”
Her response was sowhat dry, but she listened as Helen lendy laughed at herself, “I feel the sa. I don’t want to be involved with him, so it doesn’t matter whether he knows or not.”
She looked at Elly Campbell, suppressing the bitterness in her eyes, and said, “Elly, there’s no future for and Harry Hall. The Hall family would not accept a daughter-in-law without a background, and I can’t humble myself before the Hall family just to marry Harry. I can’t do it.”
“Elly, I don’t want to use this child to tie myself to him.”
She gripped Elly Campbell’s hand, a bit tightly, “So, Elly, besides the doctors, you’re the only one who knows about the child. Please don’t tell Harry, okay?”
