Chapter 393 Dilemma

It was undoubtedly a dilemma. For a mother, nothing could make her give up her baby simply because of a question with an indefinite answer

So what if my baby was still just an immature embryo? It would soon grow into human form inside me. Was I supposed to deprive it of its right to continue growing simply because of an unknown result?

I knew how absurd it sounded for me to use the word "right" in relation to an embryo. Yet the truth remained. Though I was never indecisive, I couldn't give Maria an accurate answer on this matter whatsoever

In contrast to my hesitation, Aaron seemed

much more decisive

He double-checked with Maria the extent to which each option affected me, and then he suddenly turned and took my hand

"Olive, I think you know that you are the most important to me. The same goes for yourself."

I knew what he was implying. Few mothers would give up the babies inside them, but few fathers would give up their wives for fetuses they had never met

It was nothing but normal. However, when I became the one to make a choice, I became extremely unstable emotionally

If I hadn't managed to retain a shred of sanity, I would have used the word "selfish" to describe Aaron at this moment, though I knew I was

wrong

Perhaps it was my emotions or maybe it was hormones, I couldn't accept what Aaron had just suggested whatsoever

He advised me to have an abortion now to avoid the worst outcome after two weeks

He suggested so for my sake, yet I couldn't live with it

"Then, Aaron, has it ever occurred to you that these two weeks of waiting might be a turnaround given by fate?"

Maybe after two weeks, the test results would show nothing wrong. The baby would be fine, and so would I. We could look forward to it the same as before instead of looking back one day and saying with great regret, "If we had known,

we would have waited for the test results and kept the baby."

"You're gambling with your life!"

Aaron didn't agree with me, and he didn't think it was a "turnaround" at all. He said to me resolutely that life wasn't some game, and we couldn't afford to risk trial and error at all. He couldn't accept that I was in any way at risk of harm

I admitted that it was touching, yet still, I couldn't say yes to his advice. The result was that Maria, feeling embarrassed, asked us to think about it, and Aaron and I had a quarrel again after we patched things up

It seemed that every quarrel we had had since We were married was due to external causes and extremely painful for both of us

Neither I nor he profited from the quarrels, and neither of us felt good after saying nasty things to the other

Quarreling like this made us sadder than some relationship problems

When Charlotte came to visit me from work, she saw Aaron sitting on the couch in silence and me lying in the bed with a cold face, seeming as if I was napping

"Mr. Morris, Olive, what's the matter?"

She didn't know the dilemma I was about to face. And to be honest, I didn't know how to explain to her what had just happened

Therefore, I could only force a smile and sidestep the crucial point

"Nothing. It's just that the test results won't be

useful until two weeks later, which makes me a bit worried."

I saw Aaron clench his fists after I said that, yet I was determined to say so as my way of telling him repeatedly that I wouldn't change my mind

I was glad that Charlotte wasn't inquisitive, and she didn't ask me anything else after I explained

She simply comforted me for a while, and then she turned to Aaron and handed him some documents from her briefcase

"Mr. Morris, the test results on the experimental equipment came back, and it's almost certain that it was man-made damage. Do you ... want to apply in TWH's name to investigate all the people involved?"

She was very subtle. Yet I had already had a bad feeling after I heard the conversation of those

two employees from Lorna Jewelry Group

Charlotte's words only confirmed my guess

Vega was so into Aaron. She was certain that he was just being tricked by appearances and that I was just a low-level woman who wanted to climb the social ladder with my baby

Yet Vega was so simple-minded. Her tricks in dealing with me were nothing new. She either belittled me in a high-profile way or incited others to curse me together. And this time, she decided to go after my baby. She naively thought that if I lost the baby, Aaron would "come around"
