PopularNovel"You dare!" At that moment, the door to the room suddenly swung open. Aveline, her face pale but her expression taut, stood there.
Although she couldn't see anything, her eyes were filled with a fierce determination.

Though she had been lying on the bed, anxious, she quietly got up and moved closer to the door, wanting to overhear what they were discussing.
To her shock, she caught wind of the possibility that she might be pregnant! Stunned, her mind raced as she recalled her recent moments with Lucas. There was one twhen things had gotten too intense, and the next time, they hadn't used any protection. She had assumed she was in her safe period and brushed it off at the time. Clearly, the so-called safe period wasn't safe at all! But now that she knew she was pregnant, she was determined to keep the baby.
Without close family in this world, she would create her own family.
No one could touch her child! The doctor glanced at the man and said, "I've prescribed smedication to help her recover. We'll know for sure if she's pregnant after the tests." The man said nothing, but Aveline could feel his gaze fall on her.
As the doctor's footsteps faded, the man's electronic voice echoed coldly. "Didn't you claim you no longer cared about Lucas? So why keep his child?" "It's My child!" Aveline's voice was sharp, unyielding. "Mine alone!" He let out a derisive laugh. "But the father is Lucas. The child shares his bloodline. You can't claim it as yours alone. If Lucas finds out you're pregnant, you'll never escape. You'll be bound to him forever." Aveline's heart raced. "Who are you? How do you know so much about me?" She picked up on the subtle hint in his words he knew she had been trying to get away from Lucas. That meant he had to be someone close to her.
Only a few of her friends knew about her situation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCould it be Sidney? Or Gernard? Russell? First, she mentally ruled out Sidney. He spent all his money on medical bills and couldn't afford to orchestrate such an elaborate plan to keep her captive here. He didn't have that kind of power.
So was it Gernard or Russell? It couldn't be Russell either! He had recently gotten married and was fully focused on taking over the Skyler family business. He even went as far as marrying Rina for that purpose. There was no way he'd do something like this to her. Deep down, she refused to believe that Russell would be capable of such a thing.
Could it be Gernard? But he already knew she had divorced Lucas! Why would he still be fixated on whether she cared about Lucas or not? Yet, if it wasn't them, then who else?
It had to be someone with the power to pull this off without Lucas discovering it immediately, someone who also understood her inner thoughts. Aveline found herself sinking back into confusion.
Amoment The man watched her pale face in silence for a long moment before finally speaking Aveline, 1 won't let you have Lucas' child. If you want a child, I can give you one." "Get out!" Aveline cursed angrily. "You makesick!" In her panic, she hurried back into her room, slamming the door and locking it behind her.
Her hand instinctively rested on her stomach. Whether or not she was truly pregnant was still uncertain, but her mind was made up. If she was carrying a child, she would protect the baby at all costs. She would never let anyone harm him!
