    Chapter 779 She’s Pregnant-With My Child


    “I’m not here for the professor!” Brendan cut her off, his fingers clutching Julia’s arms. He had never


    looked so anxious before.


    ‘‘That piano teacher! Where is she?”


    Julia froze for a second. “The piano teacher?”


    Brendan shoved her aside and ran toward the piano room as Julia reeled out of her shock to follow


    him.


    “Brendan, she’s clocked out. She has gone home.”


    “Gone!?”


    Brendan thinned his lips and turned to fix a piercing stare at her.


    ” I’m going to ask you one question, and I need you to answer me honestly. That piano teacher is


    visually impaired, isn’t she?”


    Julia averted her gaze. “Visually impaired? You mean, like a blind person?” ‘Yes. A blind woman.”


    Juliaughed mirthlessly. “Come on. How’s a blind person supposed to be anyone’s piano teacher?”


    “She’s… an able-bodied person, then.”


    ‘Yeah,” Julia quickly answered, nodding. She could not stop herself from adding, “You’re really out of


    sorts, Brendan. Why? Did you think that piano teacher is someone you know?”


    ‘Yes.”


    Brendan scanned his surroundings until his eyes settled on the lunchbox, which was too rustic and


    in to belong to the rest of the environment. Two secondster, he looked away, his face pale and


    exhausted. “I miss her too much. That piano teacher might have been her…”


    “Miss?” Julia’s heart raced.


    “What do you mean?”


    Brendan cast his eyes low, his expression helpless. “Do you know who she is to me?”


    Julia shook her head.


    Brendan smiled self-deprecatingly. “She’s my wife. We’ve been married for six or seven years by now.”


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    “What!?” Julia was shocked. Confusion was strewn across her face.


    ‘Y- Your wife is missing?”


    ‘Yes.” Brendan smiled mirthlessly.


    ‘I’m sorry for acting out of sorts today, Julia. But it’s because she’s my wife. She left me while I wasn’t


    watching to elope with another man… while still pregnant with my child.”


    Julia’s eyes twitched. “W-What do you n to do!?” “Nothing. I love her. I won’t hurt her even if she


    doesn’t love me. All I hope is that she will let the baby live. She’s been making as much money as


    possible to abort that child… To abort the fruit of our love.


    “Julia, please. If you know anything, don’t hide it from me. Not unless you want to watch my child die


    before they are born.”


    Even as Tobey led Deirdre back to their room, her mind was nk. Tobey grabbed her arms tightly and


    tried to shake her out of shock.


    “Dee, Dee! What happened? How did you encounter him?”


    Deirdre reeled out of her stupor and still felt herself shaking in fear. She held onto the door frame to


    support herself. “Brendan and Professor Ward … they know each other!


    They were chatting to each other and m- mentioned me, and Brendan… must have guessed it was


    me… He stormed inside the piano room and… if I didn’t hide in the closet…”


    It was that one second. One second sooner, and she would havee face to face with the devil. If it


    were not for that call…


    Brendan then left after receiving it, too. She could not tell what could be the reason.


    “How could this happen?” Tobey’s expression darkened. ‘You should… quit your job, Dee. You can’t go


    there anymore. Now that Brendan’s suspected something, his obsessive *ss willpel him into


    returning to confirm his hunch. Every time you go there, the risk increases!”
