However, Samantha didn’t trust her at all.
“Last time, you also told me that you weren’t going to see him, but what
happened next? You went to see him again, and you even got sad when
you came back. Isn’t that right?”
When Samantha said that, Sandy couldn’t even retort.
After a long while, she patiently said, “Mom, I know I was in the wrongst
time, and I even lied to you. However, I’m telling the truth this time. If your
don’t believe me, I’ll definitelye back within 30 minutes.”
“Within 30 minutes?”
Samantha narrowed her eyes suspiciously at the time frame. If Sandy
wanted to see that man, she wouldn’t be back within 30 minutes.
Could it be that she had misunderstood Sandy this time?
“Mom, I really have something to attend to.” Sandy looked at the time,
appearing a little anxious. She feared that if she went toote, Victoria

wouldn’t be waiting there anymore.
Seeing that Samantha was still not open to negotiation, Sandy said
urgently, “If you keep acting like this, I’ll leave the Rogers Family and never
When she saw that her daughter was getting mad, Samantha finally
realized that it would only damage their rtionship if she kept acting like
this, so she said, “If you’re not lying to me, then I’ll certainly believe you,
Sandy. Go ahead. However, you have to keep your promise ande
back within 30 minutes.”

Samantha paused for a moment before adding, “Since it’s just 30 minutes,
I’ll wait for you here.”
Sandy silently lowered her gaze.
Just as expected, no matter what she said, her mother wouldn’t believe
her.
“Alright, wait for me here. I’ll be right back.”
With that, Sandy left without any hesitation.

Meanwhile, Victoria had been sitting alone in the restaurant for almost 30
minutes. She ordered the restaurant’s specialty pasta even though she
didn’t have much of an appetite, for it wouldn’t be appropriate to sit in a
restaurant without ordering anything for half an hour.
Then, she ordered some soup.

There were quite a lot of customers in the restaurant at first, but the
numbers dwindled after that, and Victoria was the only one left in the end.
Victoria lifted her hand to nce at the time on her watch.
There were only three minutes left before the time she and Sandy agreed
on ran out.
Sandy hadn’t shown up after almost half an hour.
Just a few minutes were remaining, so Victoria assumed that Sandy
wouldn’t being.
It wasn’t a surprise, though. Back in the hospital, Sandy didn’t look like she
wanted toe. Samantha was a forceful woman too, so it was only
reasonable that Sandy wouldn’te.

Victoria put down her fork and took a sip of the soup.
Perhaps 30 minutes isn’t sufficient. Why don’t I wait for another ten
minutes?
As she was pondering, a slender girl entered the restaurant. The familiar
figure caught Victoria’s eye, and the two quickly met each other’s gaze.
“Victoria.”
Sandy held her skirt up as she swiftly walked up to Victoria.
“You’re here.”
Victoria was reassured to see her.
“I was worried that 30 minutes might be too short, and you couldn’t find
time toe here.”

When Sandy heard that, she panted as she said, “Thirty minutes is plenty,
but I took the wrong turn on my way here, and I had to take the long route
to find this ce.”
So that’s what happened. This meant that Sandy had already decided to

“Are you hungry? Do you want to eat something?”
Sandy wanted to decline, but when she saw the foodid out in front of
Victoria, she said, “I’ll have some soup, please.”

“Alright.”
After that, they both sat down. Sandy grabbed a spoonful of soup.
“Didn’t you find it strange when I wanted to talk to you? I can’t believe
you’d be willing toe.”

When Sandy heard that, she raised her gaze and nced at Victoria, then
put down her spoon.
“I did find it a little strange, but… I know you won’t harm me, Victoria.”
Victoria smiled at her. “If you put it like that, I’ll get straight to the point,
alright? Your mom will be upset if you go back toote, won’t she?”
Chapter 143 Why Would You Abort the Child?
At the mention of her mother, Sandy could only smile bitterly.
“Yes, she’s still waiting for me at the hospital. I’ve already told her it
wouldn’t take more than 30 minutes.”
Victoria wasn’t surprised to hear that at all.
“I’ll make it short, then.”
“Okay.”
“Perhaps this might be too sudden to you, but believe me, I have no
intention of offending you. That day, I spotted you and your boyfriend in
the washroom of a restaurant.”
Sandy thought that Victoria had asked her out to talk about her
pregnancy.
However, she didn’t expect Victoria to mention the incident at the
restaurant.

“I identally overheard your conversation when I passed by that day. I’m
sorry.”

Sandy smiled. “It’s okay. We were talking too loudly that day, and it’s only
normal that someone overheard us.”

Seeing her forced smile, Victoria continued, “After you left, I bumped into
your boyfriend at the entrance of the restaurant again. There was another
woman beside him, and when I heard them talking, they sounded like a
couple.”
At that, Sandy suddenly stood up in a rush of emotions. She moved so
quickly that she even toppled the chair behind her.
Victoria was startled at her movements.
Even the owner of the restaurant looked over at them.
When Sandy realized that her actions were being a nuisance to others, her
pale face and neck turned red, and she hastily apologized.
“Sorry! I’m so sorry.”
As she apologized, she picked up the chair and sat back down.
She didn’t say anything as she stared at the table. The
Chapter 143 Why Would You Abort the Child?
embarrassment–induced redness on her face had disappeared.
“How… is that possible?”

Victoria looked at her, fearing that the news might have been too much of
a shock to her. Hence, she said carefully, “I know you may not be able to
ept this right now, but I’m telling the truth.”
With that, Victoria held Sandy’s hand and said lightly, “Didn’t you notice
anything after being with him for so long?”
Even though Sandy didn’t reply, she subconsciously bit her lower lip, and
her gaze was a little avoidant.
Seeing her like that, Victoria understood.
“You already knew about it, didn’t you?”
After all, when two people were dating, they would expend effort on each
other.
A person’s effort and energy had their limits. If there was another person
involved, the effort expended would be halved, so the other party would

definitely sense that.
She looked at Sandy in front of her, making guesses in her heart.
Perhaps Sandy already knew about this, but she just refused to believe it.
Just as expected, before Victoria asked again, Sandy admitted it herself.
“I suspected it before, but I never verified it.”
When Victoria heard that, her eyshes quivered. “Was it because you
didn’t want to, or you didn’t dare to?”
There was no reply.
Victoria could only continue, “Since you’re aware of it, why did you
continue the rtionship? You and him-”
Halfway through her words, Sandy suddenly looked up.
“What about you, Victoria?”
“What?”
