Flash Marriage: Slow Down Mister novel Chapter 295

"Okay," Clara nodded and answered distractedly. She was still thinking about the baby.

Seeing Clara say nothing with her head lowered to eat the soup, Horace felt a bit awkward. Eventually, he decided to break the silence, "Clara, where did you go? Why did you come home so later?"

"Nowhere. I was in the hospital with my mom." Clara didn't want to tell him anything about her and Laura, because he might think she was trying to speak ill of Laura again.

"How is she?"

"Good."

Nodding his head, Horace didn't know what to say. He had never been a talkative person, and the room fell into silence again,

After finishing eating the soup, Clara plucked up her courage and looked at Horace. "Horace, I need to talk to you about something."

"What is it?" Horace was a bit curious when he saw the serious look on Clara's face.

Taking a deep breath, Clara spoke, "I'll keep the baby. If you really want me to abort it, we can get a divorce."

Hearing her words, Horace couldn't help but feel angry again and his tone became stern. "C, can't you just listen to me on this? We really can't have the baby!"

"Why not?" Clara was angry as well, "I have told you this morning that I didn't get raped! This is our baby. Do you want to kill it?"

Seeing her insist that she wasn't raped, Horace didn't know how to help her take the reality.

If he could, he hoped that she never remembered it. She wouldn't get hurt if she was just unaware of it.

They couldn't keep the baby. However, if Clara couldn't remember what had happened, she would insist on having the baby.

Thinking of this, Horace made up his mind and said, "But the doctor has done an examination for you and it showed that…"

"I don't care what the doctor said!" Clara interrupted him excitedly, "I'll keep the baby! If you have a problem with it, let's divorce!"

After the quarrel this morning, Clara had realized that her attempts to explain everything to Horace wouldn't work, he would never believe in her.

Deep inside, he had believed that the baby wasn't theirs. In that case, she had to stick up for the baby to keep it safe.

"C, listen to me…" Horace tried to persuade her again when Clara cut in twice.

"You don't have to say anything. I have decided. If you disagree, we'll get a divorce and I'll raise the child up on my own."

Meeting the determination in her eyes, Horace fell into silence.
