Chapter 3929
But Olivia went on with a faint smile, “I was already with Dylan when I found out that I was pregnant, and back then, those rumors about you and Sharon were rife.
How would you have responded to me if I just came to tell you that I was pregnant with your child?”
She paused for a moment before continuing.
“Certainly you would ask whether this baby was really yours.
You might even think that I was only using you as a Plan B because Dylan had rejected the pregnancy.
”
Raphael wanted to refute this suppositions of hers, but he couldn’t open his mouth to speak.
He was at a loss what to say, because what Olivia had said might easily have happened.
If she really had told him she was pregnant with his child, he would have certainly denied and even mocked her.
Knowing that she was with Dylan not so long ago, he wouldn’t even think twice about rejecting any such pregnancy claim from her.
He would never have taken her seriously at all.
Seeing the stiff expression on his face, Olivia said with a faint smile, “Can you see how ridiculous it is? We’ve just been taking turns to hurt each other.
To be honest, Raphael, the main reason why I chose to hide it from you is because I’m in love with Dylan and want to spend the rest of my life with him.
”
So, this was the reason Olivia had kept the secret from him all along!
Raphael was so shocked and devastated by her admission that his face became as pale as a sheet.
After a long period of silence, he said to her in a sincere tone, “Olivia, let’s put everything that happened in the past behind us and start afresh.
”
After Olivia heard this, she looked down at the baby in her arms and whispered, “You want us to start afresh? Raphael, you’ve always known the obstacles between us, but you never had the courage to face it.
Why do you want to start afresh with me all of a sudden, hmm? Are you doing it because of Leyla? Will you really put everything behind you just because of her?”
She paused to wait for his response, but when she heard nothing, she added in a firm tone, “If that’s the case, then I refuse!”
Pressing her face against Leyla’s, she murmured, “Mr.
Jones, to be clear, my daughter’s name is Leyla Wright! And Dylan is her father! We’ll wait until he comes back to us.
Regardless of how long, we will continue to wait until he returns.
”
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
But since Raphael had locked the door from inside, there was no way anyone could get in from outside.
When the nurse outside didn’t get a response, she was very worried that something bad might happen, so she quickly called security.
Meanwhile, in the VIP ward, Raphael kept staring at Olivia unblinkingly.
In fact, he often watched her from a distance when she was still pregnant.
At this moment, he suddenly felt as if he didn’t know Olivia anymore.
He couldn’t help but wonder what had gone wrong.
But it didn’t dawn on him until much later.
Olivia’s strange behavior was as a result of the fact that she had completely given up on him.
She wouldn’t even want to go back with him, even if Dylan was gone forever.
After a long period of silence, Raphael pleaded, “Even if it’s just for the sake of our child, we need to try to start afresh, Olivia.
”
“I don’t think so,” Olivia coldly retorted.
By now, the knocking at the door had become intense.
“Mrs.
Wright, are you okay in there?” the nurse called out.
“Should we alert the police?”
Olivia put the child down on the bed and went to the door.
Raphael didn’t try to stop her.
When she opened the door, apart from the nurse and the security team, Cecilia and Laura were also present.
Both women were carrying a Large bag of food and some baby products in their hands, and they both stared at Raphael somehow.
