    Chapter 30


    Inside the room, Ada questioned, “Why? You’re both still young. How can it be possible that you


    won’t have a kid? Jason, you’re lying to me, aren’t you?”


    Jason didn’t want to borate, but he knew Ada wouldn’t let the matter go unless he satisfied her


    curiosity. “Ever since her miscarriage two years ago. I’ve been giving her birth control pills. Plus,


    with only one fallopian tube, her chances of conceiving are virtually nil


    Ada clearly didn’t believe him and pursed her lips. “You must be deceiving me. As far as I know,


    Sophia has been desperately trying to conceive for the past two years. If she was taking birth


    control pills, why would she go through all that trouble!”


    Jason’sst shred of patience wore thin at her relentless probing. Tve been giving her that without


    her knowledge. Well, let’s not talk about that,


    Don’t mention it to Sophia. It’ste, you should rest.


    Outside, Sophia leaned weakly against the wall, trembling uncontrobly, ‘He’s been giving me


    birth control for two years, huh! It’s not that there’s something wrong with me that I can’t conceive;


    it’s because of him. While he cut off all my chances of having a child, he coldly watched as I ran


    around trying to prepare for a pregnancy. Heh, what am I in his eyes! What’s the child I fought so


    hard for to him? Just a joke? she thought.


    Sophia had thought Jason having an affair was the cruelest thing he had done to her and that


    nothing else he did could hurt her. But now


    Hatred grew wildly in Sophia’s eyes, swallowing what little affection she had left. N?velDrama.Org content.


    “It’s not that I can’t get pregnant; it’s that he never wanted me to. He looks down on our child, so he


    went abroad and joyfully returned with his old lover and their illegitimate child, aiming for a picture–


    perfect family, she thought painfully.


    Enveloped by boundless darkness and despair, Sophia slowly closed her eyes, her palm gently


    touching her stomach, tears rolling down her cheeks.


    ‘Baby, what should we do! From the start, all of this was a mistake. Your father never looked


    forward to your arrival. In his eyes, we are burdens; she thought. Her fingers clutched tightly at her


    clothes as a crazy idea of revenge began to take shape in her mind. Jason made her suffer, and


    she vowed to


    make his life a living hell.


    Inside the room, Jason seemed to sense someone outside and turned, preparing to check.


    However, Ada clung to his arm, weakly saying, Jason, stay with me tonight, will you!”


    Although she didn’t know why Jason had been giving Sophia birth control, she was sure that once


    Jason found out about Sophia’s unexpected pregnancy, he would insist on the child being born. So


    before that happened, she had to find a way to get rid of the child in Sophia’s womb.


    Jason gently pried her fingers away, saying calmly. “Be good. I still need to be with Grandma. Get


    some sleep. With that, he gave Ada no chance to speak further and left the room.


    Ada tightened her fists as she watched his indifferent departure. Even with the lifesaving grace, I


    never truly had his heart. Why should Sophia be in it! I won’t let her get what she wants, even if it


    means to destroy everything, she thought.


    Not long after Sophia returned to her room, Jason entered with a ss of milk in hand. He walked


    steadily toward the bed. “You’re awake. Come on drink this milk.”


    Sophia looked at the cup in his hand and remembered the humiliating experience at the pavilion,


    and it all clicked. For two years, she had wondered why Jason always offered her a ss of milk


    after they had  . Now she knew. He had been mixing birth control in her milk; he never intended to


    have a child with her. It was all one–sided on her part.


    “What if I don’t drink it?” she asked.
