Love Is a Sweet Addiction

Chapter 200 Be Shocked



Terence had never experienced the feeling of being abandoned by a partner. Perhaps he couldn’t feel the pain she was talking about, but…

“Don’t you think your words are very contradictory?” He raised an eyebrow. “On one hand, you said how despairing you are. On the other hand, you said that you would recover soon.”

Esther thought for a moment and said, “Even if you get rid of his mistress this time, he’ll cheat on you later. It’s just his nature. So when I saw him cheat on me, I was disappointed in him and just gave up. Though you always thought I was scheming to keep them apart, I swear I never had any intention of getting this man back.”

Esther spoke so seriously, but Terence felt that it was a bit inconceivable.

Perhaps just as she said, because he had never experienced it before, he did not understand her feelings.

But no matter what, Terence was still satisfied that Esther confided in him seriously.

James had always been like a thorn in Esther’s heart, a thorn that could not be pulled out but could always make her feel pain.

“Is there some kind of conspiracy in your saying that?” Terence looked at her and deliberately said with a terrified face.

Esther was speechless, but she subconsciously held the bag on her leg tightly. A guilty conscience flashed through her heart.

Fortunately, when she was downstairs just now, she threw away the bottle of medicine. Otherwise, if he found out, he would think that she was an impenitent woman.

“Certainly not.” She picked up her bag and stood up from the sofa. “I’ll go take a shower.”

Esther had originally planned to accompany Mrs. Gibson to stroll around Proley these days, but Mrs. Gibson rejected her because of something important to do.

Esther surely didn’t believe in Mrs. Gibson’s excuse.

Mrs. Gibson said that she came here to enjoy the scenery. The truth was she was just to visit Esther and Terence. She was unwilling to stay for even a day long after that.

However, several days after Mrs. Gibson went back, her call came again, asking if Esther had done as she said.

Esther neither wanted to lie nor be blamed by Mrs. Gibson. For a moment, she didn’t know what to do.

In her panic, she had no choice but to make an excuse. “Mom, I have to wait until the proper time.”

“When is your critical period?” Mrs. Gibson asked bluntly.

“It’s usually around the 9th of every month.”

“Then it’s almost time. Take care of yourself and don’t miss it.”

Esther was surprised at the time.

She quickly adjusted the speaker on her phone and then looked at the calendar.

It was already the 6th day, but her period hadn’t come.

She looked at the calendar again. That’s right, today was the sixth day. According to her usual period, the critical period would come in a few days.

“Esther, are you listening to me?” Mrs. Gibson, who was on the other side of the line, asked unhappily.

Esther hurriedly said, “Yes, mom. I’ll do as you say.”

“Good girl. You won’t lie to me, will you?”

“Of course.” Esther somewhat uneasily agreed.

After hanging up the phone, Esther began to calculate her period. It turned out to have been delayed for about ten days.

However, her period had never come on the same day of each month. Last month, she took the medicine that Terence gave her, which was harmful to her body and could disrupt a woman’s period.

After thinking about it over and over again, this was the only possible reason to explain why her period was delayed.

It couldn’t be that the medicine had lost its effect, and she was accidentally pregnant. How could it be so coincidental!

However, she still went to the pharmacy downstairs and bought a pregnancy test kit.

When she saw the two red stripes on the pregnancy test kit, one deep and one shallow, she was instantly shocked.

God! Was she pregnant?

To figure it out, Esther quickly used her phone to search for similar cases. As a result, she found that the two lines, one deep and one shallow, meant she was in early pregnancy.

Previously, she had been looking forward to having a chance to have Terence’s child to stabilize her position in the Gibson family.

But today she was scared.

Terence said that his health didn’t allow him to have children. How did she have this baby?

Terence had been deliberately avoiding her from getting pregnant, and he had not slept with her since the last time he gave her the medicine. Moreover, she had sex with Terence just in her critical period last time. If she got pregnant, it must have been that time.

How could she possibly be pregnant after drinking milk with birth control pills in it?

In a place like Proley, the birth control medicine couldn’t be fake, could it?

Esther felt complicated at this time. When she could not get pregnant, she was anxious. Now that she was pregnant, she felt even more uneasy.

In order to prevent the pregnancy test from going wrong, she went downstairs to buy a second one, but the result was the same.

This time, she was completely stunned.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

After sitting on the balcony for a long time, she repeatedly thought about how Terence would react when he found out that she was pregnant. Would he be so angry that he would knock her out? Would he immediately force her to abort the child?

Terence was so afraid that she was pregnant. How could he accept this?

It wasn’t until the sun had set that she pulled herself back from her knitted thoughts and walked towards the kitchen.

No matter what, life still went on, dinner still had to be done, and she couldn’t mess up her life because of this.

It was a little late. Esther sped up her cooking. Fortunately, when Terence came back, the dinner was ready.

Hearing Terence’s footsteps, she managed to calm down and behave as usual. She smiled and greeted him.

Terence had changed into a set of home dresses and came out of the bathroom after washing his hands. He leaned against the door and looked at her. “What will we eat tonight?”
