Chapter 390 Getting Pregnant After the Divorce, How Ridiculous
The doctor’s words echoed in her ears, but she did not absorb them in the slightest. She muttered to herself, “But I
took contraceptives. I took them every time.”
“Contraceptive pills are not 100% effective,” the doctor kindly reminded her as he observed her expression. “About
the child, it’s no doubt a significant decision, and it’s important that you consider all your options. If you decide not
to continue with the pregnancy, we can arrange for hospitalization and schedule an abortion as soon as possible.
Just remember that time is of the essence as you may not be able to terminate the pregnancy later on.”
“I don’t know…”
“Take your time to think about it.”
In a daze, Chloe walked out of the hospital. She absentmindedly raised her hand and gently touched her still-flat
belly, her mind engulfed in a whirlwind of emotions. Instead of hailing a cab, she opted to slowly walk back home.
She began to ponder her situation, ‘Being one month pregnant means that it isn’t from the time at Graceville
Estate. Getting pregnant after the divorce… How ridiculous.’
On her way home, Chloe found herself walking alongside a middle-aged couple who were in the midst of a
heartbreaking moment. Tears streamed down their faces as they held tightly onto their hospital reports, their cries
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtechoing with despair. “This is the fifth time. Our IVF attempts have all failed. What have we done wrong? Is God
punishing us?”
“Don’t cry, my love. Maybe it’s time we let go. I can’t bear to see you suffer like this. I…I feel heartbroken for you.”
“But I want a child of my own…”
“Love, let’s consider adoption. We can still have a beautiful family. Please don’t cry.”
The man embraced his partner, pouring out all his love and tenderness. Chloe observed this scene, her grip
tightening on her own prenatal examination report. She quickened her pace, unable to bear witness to any more of
their heartache.
She needed to think rationally and not be influenced by the outside world. If she chose to proceed with the
pregnancy, she pondered how she would confront Joseph. Should she demand that he cut ties with Xavia? Setting
aside whether Joseph would even be willing to do so, there was also the matter of Xavia’s unborn child. They were
innocent in all of this. Asking herself to generously care for the child of her love rival was a daunting prospect. She
doubted whether she possessed the strength of mind to do so, especially considering the painful fact that Joseph
had cheated on her.
Chloe’s thoughts grew increasingly chaotic. In the midst of her turmoil, Emily called and extended an invitation for
lunch. Unsure of what to do, Chloe accepted, hoping to seek her
best friend’s opinion and guidance.
Nearby, the masked woman lurked in a corner, her eagle eyes shimmering with a sinister gleam. She swiftly
retrieved her phone and contacted S. “Sir, I just saw Chloe entering the OBGYN department. I suspect she’s
pregnant.”
A brief silence followed on the other end. “Do not take any action against her.”
“Why? Why shouldn’t we seize this opportunity to kidnap her and exploit both her and the child in her womb to
threaten Joseph?”
“How are you certain that Joseph would care about her?”
“Well… I believe Chloe possesses more value for manipulation than Xavia.”
“Can you guarantee that nothing will go wrong?”
“No…”
“For now, let Chloe be. Allow her to proceed with her pregnancy undisturbed, and we’ll come up with a foolproof
plan in due time. Let’s not forget that Xavia’s pregnancy is only one month behind hers.”
Revenge was not merely about committing acts of violence. It was about identifying the other person’s
vulnerabilities, ruthlessly crushing them, and subjecting them to absolute
humiliation.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe masked woman appeared to understand his intentions. “Boss, are you planning to execute. a switcheroo on the
children?”
“Precisely.”
“So, we won’t take any action against Chloe for now?”
“That’s right. Focus on taking care of Xavia and, if needed, ensure our influence extends to the hospital.”
“Understood, sir.”
Chloe and Emily arranged to meet at one of their favorite restaurants.
“Coco, you’ve got to try the chicken wings. They’re incredible!”
Lost in thought, Chloe absentmindedly picked up a piece of meat from the plate and took a few bites. “Do you think
a woman can raise a child on her own?”
“Absolutely! Men can do it, and so can women. We have all the necessary capabilities. Being self-sufficient and
independent is empowering and really cool, you know?”
“Why do I feel like you’re just saying that without truly giving it a thought?” Chloe
questioned skeptically.
Indeed, throughout history, raising a child has never been an effortless endeavor.
