Hypnotizing Love

Chapter 167 Amber Decided to Abort the Baby

After hanging up the call, Jared put down the phone, lost in thought.

He was considering Hayden's suggestion.

Probably, Hayden was right. If he kept stalling, things would probably got out of control.

Jared picked up his phone again as he was thinking, open WhatsApp, tabbed on Amber's ID in the

contact list, and messaged her.

Z: I knew about your pregnancy.

Amber was reading a file. Her phone vibrated.

She looked up to check it, only to find a message from Z. She was confused.

They had just finished chatting. Why did he message her again?

"What do you want to tell me?" Amber thought to herself as she tabbed open the chatbox.

Reading his message, Amber stiffened.

He had known it.

Amber clenched her hands, frowned, and replied: How did you know?

Z: Your friend went to find Hayden. Hayden called me.

Seeing that, Amber understood. She patted her forehead.

Oh, she thought Z had sent someone to watch her.

Had the pregnancy diminished her intelligence?

Amber typed: Since you knew it, I won't hide it from you anymore. Yes, I'm pregnant.

Z: Why didn't you tell me?

Amber frowned.

Amber: Why should I tell you?

Reading her question, Jared looked annoyed.

Why?

She asked why!

Z: Because I'm the baby's father.

Amber pursed her lips.

Amber: You are the baby's father, but it doesn't mean I must tell you. It was an accident between us. I

also got pregnant by accident. We don't know each other. I don't know your identity. I don't need you to

take any responsibility. Why should I tell you just because you are the baby's father?

Jared was rendered speechless, pressing his lips tightly.

Although he had to admit that her words made sense, he felt pretty irritated.

Pinching between his eyebrows, Jared typed: Although you don't need me to take the responsibility, I

must. I want to know your plan for the baby. Would you like to keep it or...

He paused several seconds. Then clenching his fists, he finished typing and sent the message.

Amber read his question. When she saw that he asked if she wanted to keep or abort the baby, her

heart tightened.

Although the doctor also asked her such a question earlier, she was shocked by her pregnancy at that

time. She had never thought about her plan on the baby.

However, the baby's father asked her, so she had to think about it sincerely.

Amber bit her bottom lip and entered the words with trembling fingers: I don't know.

Jared wasn't surprised by her answer.

In the past few days, she had never been to the hospital for a checkup. Hence, he knew she hadn't

made up her mind yet.

Z: It's alright. Take your time. If you want to keep it, please go ahead. I'll raise the child with you in

secret. If you don't, I'll compensate you.

Raise the child in secret?

Seeing his words, Amber squinted. "Okay, I'll think about it."

Z: Tell me after you've made up your mind.

Amber twitched her lips and didn't reply. She directly turned off her phone.

He mentioned raising the child in secret, so she knew he had no plan to recognize the baby openly.

In this case, he probably had been married or had a girlfriend or a fiancée. Or, his family didn't allow

him to have any illegitimate child outside. Hence, he wanted to raise the child in secret without letting

others know he was the baby's father.

No matter what, the baby in her belly would be an illegitimate child not expected.

Neither the baby's parents expected it. Nor would it be expected by its father's family.

Hence, it was evident for Amber to make a decision.

Amber covered her belly.

A child should be raised in a family with love instead of with a strange man that she didn't love at all.

Amber also couldn't accept that her child would become illegitimate. Hence...

Amber pinched her blouse. Bearing the sharp pang from her heart, she apologized to the baby, "I'm

sorry, baby. I'm not a good mother. You shouldn't have come to my belly. I'm sorry..."

Right then, her office door was pushed open. Cole rushed in with an angry look.

"What happened?" Amber suppressed her guilt, looked up at him, and asked.

Cole walked to her desk, picked up her coffee mug, raised his head, and gulped down.

Amber couldn't stop him.

She gave up. It was just a cup of coffee.

He didn't mind drinking the coffee she had touched. Why would she remind him?

Cole smashed the empty mug onto the desk and cursed loudly, "Damn you Hayden Cohen!"

Amber blinked. "What's wrong with him?"

"I went to ask him to tell me about that man. He said that man was abroad."

"Yes, he is," said Amber.

Cole snorted. "So I asked Hayden Cohen to give me that man's phone number. Guess what? Hayden

gave me a fake number! Fuck!"

Amber chuckled. "Probably Hayden didn't do it on purpose. That man might have changed his

number."

"Who knows? Anyway, this is not the end. I must find that man," Cole said, patting the desk.

Amber rubbed her temples. "All right. He has known I'm pregnant. Hayden told him. He also messaged

me earlier."

"Did Hayden tell him?" Cole frowned. He was enraged. "Fuck! Hayden Cohen tricked me, so he gave

me a fake number. Otherwise, how could he get in touch with that man?"

"Uh..." Amber was taken aback.

Hayden gave Z's number to Cole, but Cole found it was a fake number. However, Hayden could

contact Z.

It meant Hayden didn't give Cole the correct number. Why did Hayden do that?

"Shit! Hayden Cohen is a bastard!" Cole clenched his fists, wishing to hit Hayden. "If I see him again, I'll

beat him up. How dare he trick me!"

"All right. Calm down. Please forget Hayden's matter. Aren't you curious what that man has said to

me?" Amber looked at him.

Cole approached her. "What did he say? Did he deny it or..."

"No, he didn't deny he was the father of my baby. He's willing to take the responsibility," said Amber.

Cole looked much better. "That's better. As a man, he should do that. Otherwise, he's not a man. What ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

does he plan to do?"

"Cole, what about I have an abortion?" Amber asked instead of answering him.

Cole became solemn. "Are you serious?"

Amber nodded. "Yep. I don't want to give birth to a baby whose father doesn't love me. I also don't want

the baby to be illegitimate. So, I want to abort it."

Cole smiled. "That's right. Since it was an accident that night, you shouldn't keep this baby. It's good for

you, that man, and the baby in the belly. Babe, I'm so glad you can think it through."

Amber became more determined to abort the baby with her best friend's support.

She took a deep breath and nodded. "That man said if I aborted it, he would compensate me. So far, I

don't know what kind of compensation it would be."

"I guess it's money," Cole said.

Amber smiled. "I guess so."

"Babe, when will you do the surgery? I'll go with you," Cole said while staring at her.

Amber shook her head. "I haven't thought of it yet."

She had just made up her mind and hadn't thought about the date yet.

After thinking for a moment, Amber said, "The day after tomorrow. I won't be busy that day."

"All right," Cole answered.

Then, Amber checked the time and stood up. "Alright, Cole, I need to go to the hotel now. The project

partners of the Farrell Group will be announced today."
