After Vera had come back from her trip, Mabie kept asking her questions about where they went, if she had fun, whether they took any pictures and things like that.

At first, Vera thought Mabie was just concerned about her love life, so she would answer all her questions without overthinking. She even showed her pictures she took on her phone.

Although they were mother and daughter, they were more like friends.

Therefore, Vera was more than happy to tell Mabie everything. She even shared her joy and love life with Mabie.

In the beginning, Mabie was also elated, as she saw how blessed her daughter was. It was when they swiped to the picture of Vera and Quill on the bed at the hotel that they were both stunned for a moment. It was only three seconds later that Vera reacted and wanted to grab her phone.

But Mabie beat her to it.

"Mom, give me back my phone!" "Why the rush? It's not anything inappropriate; why can't I see it?" Mabie kept her phone away and didn't want to give it back to her.

Vera pouted anxiously. She was her mother, after all. If it were someone else, she would've already snatched it back.

However, she couldn't.

She had taken too many scenic pictures with him. Therefore, she got a little carried away and had forgotten about their picture on the hotel bed.

She didn't even dare to share those pictures on her social media as she thought it was rather ambiguous. When Vera saw the picture, she could see the background of the hotel room. Then she would naturally relate to what they did that night.

Thinking of that, Vera's face started to blush.

Ah!

How could she be such a disappointment!

"You're blushing!" To her surprise, Mabie didn't let her off the hook. She stared at her, squinting. "You two have done it, haven't you?"

She said it so directly, without any shyness. Vera became shy and flustered because of this. She then stomped her feet on the ground like a shy girl and squealed, "Mom!"

"What?" Mabie retorted, "You still remember I'm your mother? Why are you taking so long to answer? Do you still regard me as your mother?"

Vera was flabbergasted.

She muttered to herself, "Who asked you to ask so directly?"

"What? I raised you and you're now running away with someone else. Can I ask as a mother? Vera, you can't be so bossy!"

"How am I bossy..." Vera mumbled helplessly, and then lowered her head dejectedly, "Fine, I'll tell you. We have done it."

After that, she suddenly raised her voice and said, "But, it was my own volition; he didn't force me. He wasn't willing in the beginning, I was the one who forced him!"

Vera shouldered all the responsibility on herself and left Quill out of it with one statement.

Mabie rolled her eyes when she heard this, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old? You're already so protective of him before marrying him; wouldn't it be worse after you marry him? Besides, if he is still unwilling after you've forced him to sleep with you, then you're really screwed."

"What do you mean?" Vera stared at her mother in confusion.

"You're like an idiot when you're in love." Mabie helplessly poked Vera's forehead hard as she spoke. "How can you want him if he really doesn't want to touch you? Perhaps he has some underlying illness, or maybe he doesn't even like you to begin with."

"You're too extreme, Mom. There are many aspects to this. For instance, it could be that he wants to be responsible, or maybe he's more conservative. It's not as over the top as you said."

"It will usually be like what I said. I've been there; how would I not know?"

Fine then. Vera secretly stuck her tongue out and decided not to argue with her mom.

They were of different generations, after all. Even people in her generation had different mindsets, let alone her parents' generation. The mindset would be worlds apart.

"You brat. It's up to you what you

want to do. can't control you anymore, nor do I want to. But you

have to know what youngine

always use protection. Don't

Lover

foolishly take everything so passively, understand?"

Mabie hadn't 't been concerned before this, but this trip had brought their relationship much closer. It would be great if they could end up getting married, but if they didn't, and Vera got pregnant, the one who would be hurt would be her daughter.

Vera suddenly felt uneasy after Mabie mentioned

Because they hadn't had the chance to use protection that night, and it had been too late to take other precautionary measures when they left the island.

She didn't know if she would get pregnant.

Now that Mabie had mentioned it, Vera felt extremely guilty, but she couldn't do anything about it. She could only take note of whether she would be pregnant for the coming days. She even planned to buy some test kits from the drug store. She would test it as soon as her period was late!

Seeing that Vera did not reply and that her gaze was avoiding hers, Mabie immediately knew. She immediately pulled on Vera's collar and said, "What is it? You guys didn't use protection?" Vera stammered, "We... it was a special situation, so..."

"F*ck!" Mabie couldn't help but swear in front of Vera for the first time. She clenched her fist and scolded her, "Men sure are unreliable. Couldn't he have

prepared beforehand? And you, how

can you be so naive? You didn't even use protection; what if you get pregnant?"

Vera didn't answer.

She bit her lower lip and hung her head low like a child who had done some wrong.

"Have you talked to him about this?"

"We've talked..." Vera nodded.

"Then what did he say? Did he say anything?"

Vera thought for a moment and shook her head, "Mom, stop asking me these questions already. It's really hard to talk about this. If I really am pregnant, I want to give birth to the child!" "What did you say?" Mabie widened her eyes in disbelief, "Give birth? Did he agree to marry you?"

Um...

Vera blinked and said, "I don't think so. It doesn't matter if he wants to marry me or not. I will definitely give birth to the child if I get pregnant! Hmph!"

Mabie was speechless. "Whose foolish daughter do you belong to?"

"Mom, you know I like him. Even if I don't end up marrying him, I don't want to force him either."

Hearing this, Mabie couldn't help but pull Vera into her arms, closing her eyes helplessly.

Vera was too lowly in this relationship.

No matter how good that man was, she shouldn't lose herself like this...

"Alas, there is no way she would be able to listen to other people's words now. All that she longs for belongs to the happiness that is solely hers. Others wouldn't understand." Mabie thought.
