Babel Novel
Chapter 148
“Vernon, what should | do... | seem to be pregnant...”
Upon hearing that news, Vernon was struck dumb, his mind buzzing. “What? You're pregnant?”
He had already been kicked out of the Morton family. Although he still had some savings, he was used to spending lavishly. It was barely enough for himself. How could he support Nora, who was also used to a life of luxury, and the baby in her belly?
Besides, the money wasn’t readily accessible. Most importantly, he didn’t like Nora at all, so he didn’t want to spend the money on her. They fell silent all of a sudden. Neither of them said anything.
After a long while, Vernon struggled to open his mouth, “Why don’t you go to the hospital for a check-up first? Maybe you're not really pregnant.”
What bad luck he had these days! He honestly didn’t want Nora to be pregnant. But if she was really carrying his baby, he couldn’t just abandon her. What a hassle!
“How about this, Vernon, I'll accompany Nora to the hospital tomorrow for the check-up. It'll attract too much attention if both of you go together.”
At this moment, Bessie quickly stood out. She couldn't let Vernon accompany Nora to the hospital for the check- 1.1me Nuru a picynunoy, no would vermey figure out that the baby wasn't his.NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
After hearing Bessie’s words, Vernon thought for a moment. He didn’t want those meddlesome reporters to catch wind of anything and ruin his reputation again.
“Fine.” Vernon nodded.
Tomorrow, he would figure out a way to make some money. If Nora was indeed pregnant, then he would have to raise the baby, even if he
didn’t like it.
Although Vernon was despicable, he couldn’t bring himself to abandon his wife and baby!
Seeing him agree, Bessie and Nora exchanged a quiet glance.
As long as they brought back the pregnancy test result from the hospital tomorrow, Vernon would become the baby’s father.
However, Vernon felt that something was off. He had only slept with Nora once, and that was half a month ago at the hotel when he was
set up.
Didn’t women usually discover their pregnancy after at least a month?
The timing just wasn’t right.
Vernon spent the whole night tossing and turning, feeling increasingly agitated about Nora’s pregnancy. In the end, he got up and went to Holy Night to drink and calm himself down.
Meanwhile, at Holy Night.
Night fell, lights lit up, and the place bustled with people.
Here, it was a world of revelry and excitement.
Right after Delbert, Harriet, Marc, and Molly arrived at the VIP room on the top floor of Holy Night, a remarkably handsome man walked out from inside.
As soon as the man saw Delbert, his face lit up with joy.
“Boss, you're finally here! We all are waiting for you!”
Delbert’s voice was calm and indifferent as always, “Right on time. I'm not late.”
The man knew his indifferent nature and didn’t dwell on it. Instead, he turned to glance at the round-faced Harriet beside Delbert. The next second, his eyes lit up with excitement.
“Yuri, Selena, come out quick! Boss’s here. He brought his wife!” He shouted excitedly into the VIP room.
