Chapter 248: It’s Up to Me


    Steven doesn’t try to avert suspicion, following me into my room. Mom and Dad stand at the door and


    give me an encouraging wink, beckoning me to seduce Steven.


    What are they thinking about? How can I seduce Steven as a pregnant woman? Moreover, there is no


    chemistry between us.


    Steven sits down on the bed, fixing his eyes on me. It seems that he has something to say.


    “Speak out.” I say indifferently.


    “Frances is driving me crazy.” Steven sighs and then continues, “You know what? He has been stalking


    me almost every day for the past few months. I guess he does this to find you. It took me a lot of effort


    today to finally get rid of him. If he continues like this, he will find you sooner orter.”


    “I have already paid off my debt. Why is he so persistent?” I say helplessly, smiling bitterly.

    The first time Steven came, he told me that when he gave the card to Frances, Frances turned grim


    with a cloudy face. When he walked out of Frances’ office, he could hear Frances smashing things


    from afar.


    “What if he cares about you?” Steven stares at me and says seriously.


    I shake my head firmly and say, “Impossible. Stop spouting nonsense. How could he care about me?


    He just can’t ept that I’ve fooled him.”


    Frances is very proud, and he has to be the one who dumps instead of being dumped. How could he


    ept that I left without telling him? It’s humiliating to a man like him.


    “I hear that he has been trying to divorce Whitney, but old Mr. Louis doesn’t agree because Whitney is


    pregnant.”


    I nod with indifference.


    It’s none of my business if he divorces Whitney or not. I’ve got rid of them in my life, and I’m not


    involved with them anymore.


    I have to ept the fact even though it hurts.


    “You will have the pregnancy check-up tomorrow. Go to sleep.” Steven gets to his feet, walking out.


    “Steven.” I stop him with a whisper. “Now that you are being stalked, don’te to me anymore. I can


    handle the pregnancy check-up myself.”


    “I know how to deal with that. Don’t worry.”


    I fall silent.


    Steven is stubborn. He does not change his mind no matter what I say.


    I have to face it. Mom’s not blind, and I’m not stupid. Even if I didn’t understand Steven before, I


    definitely do now.


    He likes me.


    However, I am not worthy of him at all. I’m a divorced woman who used to be a home wrecker, and now


    I’m having an illegitimate baby.


    “Steven, I’m not worthy of you. There are so many good women around you, and you don’t need to


    waste...”


    “It’s up to me to decide if you are worthy or not. Your opinion doesn’t count. Jane, don’t underrate


    yourself. You’re a thousand times better than you think. You deserve a man who is willing to doing


    anything for you.”


    Steven turns to look at me with the familiar affection in his eyes.


    Then he leaves the room, not giving me the chance to reject him.


    When he apanies me to the pregnancy check-up the next morning, he is peaceful as if nothing


    has happened.
