Chapter 1254 Give Up On This Child
Not wanting to waste time arguing with Timothy, she continued asking Loraine, “When did he take Johanna away?
Where did this happen?”
“It was the day after Ms. Joule and Mr. Timothy quarreled,” said Loraine. The incident was still fresh in her mind.
That morning, when Loraine went to the kitchen to get something, she saw Timothy throwing something into the
trash can before walking out with a glass of warm milk.
After he left the kitchen, Loraine picked up the small medicine box from the trash can.
She recognized some of the words on the box and could roughly tell the medicine was for halting fetal
development.
Loraine was shocked and puzzled.
When Johanna found out she was pregnant, Timothy was overjoyed and cautious about protecting the child. Since
Johanna couldn't see, he would always carry her up and down the stairs, worried that walking would tire her out.
Why did Mr. Timothy put that medicine in Mrs. Jensen's glass of milk?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTimothy happened to have left the house when Loraine exited the kitchen. Johanna was playing with Asel in the
living room and was about to take a sip of the milk that was placed on the table.
Thinking about all the hardships Johanna had to endure during her pregnancy, Loraine couldn't help exclaiming,
“Ms. Joule, don't drink that!”
Johanna paused in her tracks and looked in the direction where Loraine's voice came from. “What's wrong,
Loraine?”
Loraine walked toward Johanna and whispered, “I saw Mr. Timothy adding some medicine that stops fetal
development into the milk.”
Johanna froze in disbelief, widening her unfocused eyes.
“I'm not lying to you, Ms. Joule.” Loraine handed the box to Johanna. There was a set of instructions written in
Braille inside the package.
Having lost her vision for a long time, Johanna spent her free time learning Braille at home. As such, she recognized
many words.
Feeling the Braille writings with her fingertips, Johanna shuddered upon understanding the meaning of the words.
Loraine said, “I think Mr. Timothy must've misunderstood something. You should explain to him that being pregnant
is tough and getting an abortion will bring extreme harm to your body as well.”
After calming down, Johanna called Timothy herself, asking him to return home.
When Timothy returned and saw the untouched glass of milk, his eyes flickered. He then walked over and sat down
beside Johanna. “Why didn't you drink the milk?”
“Asel rummaged around the kitchen just now and found this in the trash can.” Johanna tried her best to contain her
emotions as she handed the medicine box to him. “Besides, you know that I seldom drink milk in the morning. Why
did you serve me a glass of milk today?”
Pausing, she faced Timothy and could feel his breath despite being unable to see his expression. “What did you put
in the milk?”
Timothy merely responded, “Jojo, let's give up on this child.”
Johanna stiffened, thinking she might've heard it wrong. After a long while, she finally came back to her senses and
reacted. “Give up on this child? I've gone through so much carrying this child. You even prepared a nursery and
listened to the baby's heartbeat every night. You spoke and crooned to her lovingly. Why are you giving up on her?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmA thought suddenly occurred in Johanna's mind, and she seemed to have understood Timothy's sentiment. She
added, “I go for prenatal checkups with Loraine every month. The doctor said that the baby is healthy.”
Johanna asked Loraine to bring over the album that contained prenatal checkup reports that she had put together.
However, when Loraine returned with the album, Timothy didn't even bother taking a look. He merely ordered
Loraine to bring Asel—who was playing with building blocks—away from the living room.
Then, he spoke. “I checked with the hospital. You're not only nine weeks pregnant.”
“What do you mean?” Johanna was confused.
Complete silence ensued in the living room. Soon, realization dawned on Johanna, and she immediately slapped
Timothy across his face. “Timothy Jensen, you b*stard!”
Her fingernails scratched his face, leaving a bloody scar.
Consumed by rage, Johanna felt suffocated and almost couldn't muster a word. “I told you the moment I came
back that I got some birth control pills from Frank, so I wouldn't get pregnant. Besides, I only got pregnant a long
time after I returned. I can't believe you still think this child isn't yours!”
Johanna had never felt so humiliated in her life, not even when she was confined by Zephyr back then. At that
moment, she felt her blood run cold from the devastation of being suspected by her own husband.
