Chapter 98


    "You knew from the beginning?"


    Kaley''s eyes lit up, and she nodded saying, "Trista recently saw Izabe taking some medicine and


    got curious. Turns out, her daughter-inw was taking the same pills for her pregnancy."


    So he was thest to know Izabe was pregnant? Brett didn''t feel great about it and equally didn''t


    understand why Izabe would keep it from him.


    Thinking of the lost child, Brett''s heart ached. He asked, "When did you find out?"


    "Yesterday. I thought you knew, so I didn''t tell you." Kaley lowered her head.


    Kaley hesitated and nced at Brett''s face before saying, "Before Izabe pushed me down the


    stairs today, she said a few things..."


    "What did she say?"


    Kaley hesitated even more, making Brett increasingly frustrated.


    "Don''t be mad at what I''m about to say. After all, Izabe just had a miscarriage."


    Brett stared at her.


    "She said she felt disgusted being with you and also said," Kaley paused, looking at him. At that


    moment, Brett''s face was tensed, and the bloodstains on his shirt added a hint of murderousness to


    his appearance.


    Kaley''s heart skipped a beat, but she tried to stabilize her emotions before finishing her sentence,


    "She said she wants to take revenge on us. Brett, I''m not overthinking it. The fact that she said all


    these things and hid her pregnancy from you, I suspect she deliberately miscarried to make you feel


    guilty."


    Brett''s eyes were deep and unreadable, like a bottomless abyss.


    Brett appeared calm on the surface, but his hand tightly clenched into a fist. He was suppressing his


    anger.


    "Did Izabe really say that?"


    Kaley nodded.


    Brett let out a bitterugh, seeming to understand everything at once. No wonder Izabe kept her


    pregnancy a secret. She was waiting to strike right here.


    Thinking he would feel guilt and regret to fuel her revenge? Nice try.


    Usually, Brett''s emotions didn''t show on his face. Although his heart ached like burning fire, his face


    remained calm. Kaley couldn''t quite tell his emotional state, but she aplished her goal.


    She didn''t believe that after all this, Brett would want to be with Izabe.


    "Brett, were you serious about agreeing to all my conditions in the phone call today?"


    Brett replied, "Yeah, anything I can give you, I will."


    Kaley looked straight at him and said with hurt in her voice, "I want to marry you. I don''t want to be


    called your mistress by Izabe anymore."


    Brett''s eyes were cold, but he suddenly gave a hint of a smile, "I''ll marry you in a year."


    Kaley stiffened, her voice trembling with restrained emotions, "Why wait a year?"


    "Kaley, do you like children?" Brett asked.


    Kaley didn''t quite understand his intention, but thinking of children... she touched her stomach; the


    car ident four years ago had taken away her ability to be a mother.


    "I do, but I won''t have my own child in this lifetime..." The more she thought about it, the more she


    resented Izabe! If it wasn''t for her, she wouldn''t have been in the car ident.


    These years she''d been avoiding this issue, but now that Brett brought it up, she had to face it.


    The Windham family wasn''t an ordinary family, as a prestigious n, they valued offspring the most.


    If she couldn''t have children... Brett''s parents wouldn''t allow her marry him.


    Kaley cautiously asked, "Brett, is it because I can''t have children that you aren''t divorcing Izabe?"


    Brett held Kaley''s cold hand, gently stroking the back of her hand, trying tofort her, "Stop


    imagining things! Technology is so advanced these days, we can use scientific methods if ites


    to it. And not to mention how painful childbirth can be."


    Pausing, Brett''s expression suddenly became cold, "But now we have a ready-made one."


    "Ready-made?"


    "Yeah, I want a child with Izabe. What do you think?" His tone seemed to be asking for her


    opinion, but his gaze wouldn''t take no for an answer.


    Kaley was reluctant. Though she said she liked kids, she wouldn''t want to adopt Izabe''s child.


    What was Brett thinking?

    She swallowed herints, realizing that Brett was set on this decision. So she might as well


    agree with him.


    Thinking from another perspective, this could also be a way to torment Izabe. The idea of being


    able to torment her child in the future started to sound appealing.
