Chapter 361
Chapter 361 The Baby's Father
But Aaron didn't give me a chance to catch my breath. When Kristy regained her composure and wanted to speak to him, he grabbed my wheelchair and said vigilantly, "Mrs. Woods, I have something to talk to Olive about. Since you aren't her mother, it's not appropriate for you to stay here."
Kristy's face darkened at Aaron's obvious attempt to drive her away
She turned to look at me, but I pretended not to see and lowered my head
To be honest, I was unwilling to face Kristy or Aaron now
But if I had to choose between the two of them,
I would rather be with Aaron alone
After all, I was closer to my ex than my biological mother
But we probably couldn't get any closer now
Thankfully, facing my silence and Aaron's anger, Kristy chose to leave, allowing me to focus all my energy on dealing with Aaron
However, when all was quiet, I didn't feel relieved. Aaron strode to the front of me, and that was the first time I had seen unease and temptation in his eyes
"When did you get pregnant?"
Aaron's voice was a bit hoarse, indicating that he thought long before asking this question
I licked my almost cracked lips and instinctively
placed my hands on my lower abdomen, trying to suppress my emotions. I replied lightly, "It's been about 19 weeks."
I deliberately wore loose clothes today to cover up my pregnancy but failed
Aaron's eyes darkened. We already broke up more than four months ago
He didn't remember what absurd thing we did that night. No matter how passionate the sex was, it was just an indulgence under the influence. When we woke up, what happened between us would go with the wind
And the baby in my belly, like a joke, came as a surprise that caught me off guard
But I didn't want to bind anyone to me with the baby. I hoped Aaron could be with me out of
love, not responsibility
Since he couldn't give me love, I'd let him give up
Sure enough, after a moment of silence, Aaron asked in a trembling voice, "Did you break up with me because of the baby? Olive, it's okay. I am willing to..."
"Kristy also said she was willing to take care of me after giving birth to me." I pretended to be calm and looked up to interrupt Aaron. "Don't say you're willing, Aaron. No one can predict what will happen in twenty years. It was not because of the baby that I broke up with you, but because I don't love you!"
"Who do you love? The baby's father? Colston?"
Aaron gripped the armrests on both sides of my
wheelchair. After barking those questions at me, he looked at me, with sadness in his eyes. "You said you loved me on the snowy mountain
Doesn't that count?"
"Don't be too childish, Aaron." I deliberately looked away. I was in no mood to identify whether he was truly sad or not. I mocked, "You often said that you only loved me, didn't you? These are just honeyed words between lovers
How could you take them seriously?"
While satirizing Aaron, I seemed to take the opportunity to persuade myself
If he cared about me like he did now, he wouldn't shout out Lukita's name when he had sex with me!
"Aaron, our relationship has become history. I agreed to meet you because I wanted to wish
you a safe journey. Except for this, I don't think we have anything to talk about."
I didn't look at Aaron throughout. After finishing my words, I reached out to touch my wheelchair and struggled to turn the wheels, pushing my wheelchair toward Cinder
Aaron cursed from behind, but he didn't catch up
It was all over
Colston's POV:
At 6 p.m. Berlin time, I sorted out all the patient information for today before leaving work
The department was still in a Christmas atmosphere. At some point, snow started to drift outside the window. I thought of Olive in New York and wondered what the weather was like
there... She should have had lunch by now
Cinder would take good care of Olive, so I didn't need to worry. But I felt frustrated like an outsider. I was Olive's boyfriend, but after she had an accident, I was the only person who hadn't visited her so far
Moreover, Aaron was with Olive a few days ago, and he even proudly told me that they might get back together. As Olive's boyfriend, I must be lying if I said I didn't have a sense of crisis
I glanced at the heavy snow outside the window, feeling uneasy
Just then, my phone in my pocket rang. The caller ID on the screen was from New York, but it was Aaron, not Olive I had been thinking about day and night

I pressed the answer button. Before I could speak, Aaron asked anxiously, "Do you know about Olive's pregnancy? The baby is about 19 weeks old. She got pregnant on the snowy mountain!"
When I heard this, my hands seemed to be out of control and instantly became cold
Was Olive pregnant?
And the baby was about 19 weeks old... But since we began to date, we had been very busy. I didn't know if it was her intentional avoidance or a coincidence, but I didn't have the opportunity to go to her house
Grief welled up in my heart. I instinctively thought Aaron intended to provoke me as the
winner and forced me to break up with Olive
But the next moment, his anger and questioning brought me back to my senses. Olive didn't tell anyone about her pregnancy, and Aaron might believe that I was the baby's father
No matter whose baby Olive was carrying, she didn't break up with me or want to get back together with Aaron
So this was my chance
Just as sparks reappeared on the blazing firewood pile that had been extinguished by rainwater, I felt better at this realization
I gave a mild cough, pretended to be calm, and said to Aaron, "Right. This should have been good news, but Olive and I agreed that she needs to rest before announcing it to our
families and friends."
