Helen was taken aback Where did you hear that?”
Shawn felt her reaction was a bit off, so he decided not to spill the beans, “A colleague mentioned
seeing you in the hospital’s maternity ward.”
Helen had nned to have an abortion this week, but before she could, Shawn was already onto her. If
she denied being pregnant, Shawn would be suspicious and definitely have someone investigate. If he
found out she was lying, things would gel messy
With that in mind, Helen hesitated.
“I am pregnant.”
Shawn was shocked. It took them years to conceive Jacques. His sperm count was lower than
average, and he didn’t think he could father another child. He didn’t expect Helen to be pregnant again.
Thinking about bing a father again, he immediately helped Helen up. “Why didn’t you tell me
about this?”
“I didn’t want to keep it from you. I just didn’t n on keeping the baby” Helen looked somewhat
worried
“What did you say?” Shawn frowned
“When I went to the hospital for a checkup, the doctor said my fetus is unstable. My blood sugar and
blood pressure are high, so childbirth could be risky”
“Which doctor said that? How many hospitals did you go to? Are their diagnoses urate?”
“It was the best hospital in town, they wouldn’t misdiagnose.”
“I know a friend whose wife also had a baby at forty. They said it was risky, but the child is very healthy
now. Doctors always like to exaggerate problems”
Helen didn’t actually want the baby, she was lying on purpose. But Shawn’s words chilled her. In his
eyes, having a baby was more important than his wife’s safety All she could do was swallow her
difort
“I really want another child, but the doctor said that older mothers have a higher chance of having
babies with birth defects. I’m really worried..
Sure enough, once the possibility of a baby with birth defects was mentioned, Shawn started to waver
He thought for a moment, “Let’s go see a few specialists in a couple of days. If there’s really a problem
with the baby, then we’ll have the abortion.”
Helen reluctantly agreed.
“By the way,” Shawn asked her, “Where did you put the property certificate for Caitlyn’s old house?”
“It’s in the safe at home. What do you need it for?”
“Nothing, you just need to keep it safe.”
Helen responded, “The payment period for Jacques trust fund ising soon. Remember to transfer
the money in the next few days.”
Shawn frowned, “Another payment? What’s the use of this trust fund? We might as well not pay it.”
“I’ve been paying insurance for several years. If I stop now, won’t I be at a loss? This money is for
Jacques‘ future. If he gets sick or wants to start a business, won’t this moneye in handy? Besides,
is this money more than what you spent on treating Caitlyn? Celeste’s piano alone is more expensive…
