Pregnant and Favored: See You in the Morning, Young Master novel Chapter 1536

‘In the end, I decided not to. After all, I had a feeling that none of the Burtons would ever accept me. Aside from that, I also feared that they’d take Yulia away from me forever. Again, I almost died giving birth to her, and I absolutely refused to let her go. All I could do back then was silently apologize to my child, and only through that self-reassurance did I manage to make it this far.’

‘I’m sure there are single mothers out there reading this, and I know you all understand how hard it is to raise children on your own. I, for one, barely even had the hands to take care of myself in the first few months! Speaking of childcare… An unforgettable incident happened when she was one. She was ill back then, and no matter what I did, she simply kept on crying… Due to how worried I had been, I ended up cutting myself while preparing food for her.’

‘Though I couldn’t fully stop the bleeding, I simply continued cooking… and it was only after I was done, that I made a simple bandage before rushing off to the hospital with the food. Alas, I ended up dropping the food, and I remember how heartbroken I had been at the time. I spent a good chunk of time sobbing uncontrollably in a corner, wondering why I had to suffer so much at my age.’

‘It didn’t help that I kept seeing other girls my age getting pampered by their parents and friends… It just wasn’t fair that I had nobody to lean on to… Nobody to even acknowledge my hardships… However, after persevering for the longest time, everything changed when I met up with Young Master Burton years later. We had met by chance, and at the time, he had mistaken me for Jenna.’

‘Even then, I was sure that we were from different worlds, and I kept trying to avoid him since I didn’t want to be with a man who couldn’t even recognize his wife. Thinking back, many other things were different back then. For one, Maison wasn’t as talkative as he is now… I still remember how he refused to let go of me after I talked to him for a bit… and it was then that I realized that I was responsible for Maison as well. It’s the reason I cared so much about him.’

‘It doesn’t help that he was known as Jenna’s husband, and for the longest time, I kept telling myself that he’d dump me once he had his fun. It was for that reason that no matter how well he treated me, I continued rejecting him for the longest time… But the thing that convinced me that I was wrong? It was when I attempted to test him to see if he was serious about me. Long story short, he was disappointed when he found out the truth, and he walked away…’

‘That was enough to tell me how serious he had always been.’
