Chapter 51 What Right Do You Have
In Yuliana’s opinion, Christopher was a playboy who lazed around all day. Based on their previous disagreements, she presumed he was a childish scoundrel. This was the first time she had seen Christopher look at her with such a serious expression.
Yuliana avoided his gaze guiltily. Naturally, she wasn’t going to swear on her child.
When she saw Christopher at the school gate, she had a rough idea of why he had come.
Along the way, she thought of discussing the baby with Christopher in a composed manner.
She contemplated doing that but was unable to follow through with it.
Christopher calmed down upon seeing that she wasn’t saying anything.
Looking at Yuliana’s side profile, various indescribable emotions surged within him.
After a long time, he asked in a deep voice, “Why didn’t you tell me?”
Yuliana lowered her eyes and pursed her lips slightly. “I wanted to tell you. I asked you to meet me at the café so that I could tell you that I was pregnant.”
She paused and pursed her lips. “But you said you didn’t want a child for the time being. Also, didn’t you have some urgent matter to attend to then?”
Thinking of what happened that day, Christopher was silent for a few seconds before asking. “What about later? I remember I asked you if you were pregnant, but you lied to me with a registration form from the gastroenterology department!”
Yuliana raised her brows and turned to face Christopher. “So what if you’re aware of it? Will you let me get an abortion, or will you be responsible for this child?”
She scoffed before continuing, “Can you bear responsibility for the child?” NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Christopher’s face stiffened. He replied with a darkened expression, “Don’t I have the right to know about my child?”
Yuliana did not say anything, as she didn’t understand why Christopher was so angry. She thought, “Isn’t it better if he doesn’t know about it? Why does it seem as though I owe him now?”
Christopher looked at her for a while before he averted his gaze.
After a while, he picked up a pack of cigarettes and took one out. He placed it between his lips. Just as he was going to light it, he suddenly thought of something and paused momentarily. He cast a glance at Yuliana beside him. After a few seconds, he opened the door and got out of the car.
Yuliana turned around and looked out the window from the driver’s seat after hearing the sound of the door closing.
Christopher stood in the vacant parking space next to the car as he lit the cigarette with the lighter.
After lighting the cigarette, he took two deep breaths and exhaled a puff of smoke. The crease between his eyebrows relaxed slightly.
After a moment, he looked over to the car. His gaze remained on the car for a while.
Yuliana couldn’t see the emotions on his face, most likely because of the smoke.
“He’s probably annoyed by the unexpected life that has entered his life. A stumbling block suddenly appeared as he was about to marry Annabelle. Nobody will be pleased if that happens to them,” she
pondered. After smoking a cigarette, Christopher returned to the car.
Yuliana stated, “You don’t have to be concerned about my pregnancy, Christopher. I didn’t mean to hold you accountable for the baby or me. Even if the baby is born, you will have nothing to do with it.”
“What do you mean?” Christopher’s actions paused, and he couldn’t help but frown again.
Yuliana looked at him and said, “It’s exactly what it sounds like.”
Christopher’s expression darkened. He sneered coldly. “Yuliana, you sure are looking out for me! Since you’re being so considerate of me, why don’t you go to the hospital and get an abortion? Isn’t that better?” Hearing this, Yuliana was no longer calm. She pursed her lips and frowned at him, “The baby is mine, and I
have the right to decide whether or not to have it!”
“You have the right. What about me? Yuliana, what right do you have to decide for me?” Christopher mocked.
