Chapter 1868


    Bonnie never had the chance to hold hands with Jim in public, not like he had with Charlotte.


    Every time she brought up the topic of announcing their rtionship publicly, Jim always pulled the this-is


    for-your-own-good excuse to reject her.


    At one point, Bonnie had started to think that Jim’s personality was the reason he did not like public


    disys of affection, but their encounter in the elevator that morning made her realize something.


    He did not mind disying public acts of affection at all, the problem was who he was with.


    “Hey gorgeous, what are you doing here all alone?” a leering man’s voice suddenly rang out next to


    Bonnie’s ear.


    Bonnie frowned and immediately opened her eyes.


    A roguish man who seemed like a gangster stood before her, holding a piece of grass between his lips


    as he ogled Bonnie. “You look like you’re sick. Do you need someone to take care of you?”


    With that, he inched closer to Bonnie, grinning from ear to ear. “I’m great at taking care of people,


    especially in bed!”


    The man’s tone and sound of his voice disgusted Bonnie.


    If this had happened on a regr day, she would have stood up and left, ignoring him entirely.


    At this moment, s, she was a patient with a wound on her lower abdomen.


    She could not even summon the strength to get up from the bench, much less get away from this


    perfectly healthy man.


    On top of that…


    Her phone had been broken the day before during her encounter with Charlotte, and she had yet to buy


    a new one. Therefore, if she left at this moment, Christopher would not be able to find her when he


    returned, and he would surely panic.


    Therefore, after weighing the risks and benefits, Bonnie decided to remain seated in her chair.

    Seeing that Bonnie did not reject him, the gangster plopped down right next to her and gave her a leering


    once-over. Finally, his gazended on her hand, which was ced over her belly, and he asked, “What’s


    wrong with your tummy, gorgeous?”


    Bonnie narrowed her eyes as she suddenly recalled what she had said to Christopher earlier about how


    she looked pregnant when she kept her hand over her belly.


    As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie curled her lips into a smirk and replied, “I’m pregnant.”


    Jim, who had arrived at the scene just a few seconds earlier and was standing a few feet behind her,


    overheard these two words.


    He had already caught sight of Bonnie and the man sitting on the bench together from a distance, and he


    entered the garden out of curiosity,


    However, he never thought he would overhear Bonnie admitting that she was pregnant as soon as he


    got near.


    Bonnie, unaware that Jim was standing right behind her, was still thinking of ways to distract this man


    who tantly tried to take advantage of her.


    The man frowned, ncing at Bonnie’s belly, and asked, “You’re pregnant?” “Yes.” Bonnie smiled and


    lowered her head to nce at her belly, her hand stroking it slightly.


    Because her abdomen was covered inyers of gauze and bandage, it appeared a little more bulging


    than usual and resembled a baby bump.


    “I’m already about four months along, and I don’t intend on getting rid of it.” With that, she lifted her head


    t o grin at the man. “Sir, do you want to be a father?


    “If you want…I’ll be your wife as soon as I give birth to this baby. How does that sound?”


    The color drained from the man’s face. “Get away from me!” he shrieked before scampering away.


    After the man left, Bonnie could not help letting out a snicker.


    “Ms. Craig.”


    Out of the blue, a low, cold voice rang out from behind her. “Have you been doing things like this behind


    Christopher’s back all this while?”
