Chapter 111 – Love Entangled with Her Unconscious Husband Novel Free (Volume II)

Yet he had just found out about it.

Averie met his eyes, which were burning with rage, and retorted in frustration, “you always manage to find a way to humiliate me!”

‘Whose child does he think it would be, if not his?’ She thought, ‘Eric’s, òr Mike’s?’

“If it’s mine, why didn’t you tell me?!” Elyette did not realize that there was an issue with his suspicion, as her action had brought back memories of the past.

It was not the first time she had hidden her pregnancy from him. He hated how it felt to be kept in the dark while she toyed with him like a fool.

“Don’t you ever get tired of this, Elyette?” She stared at the furious expression on his face and said in desperation, “I am… I am so tired… No matter what happens, you can always find a reason to be mad at me! Who do you think I am? What exactly am I to you?!”

Averie pressed on the button in the elevator to open the door.

Elyette glanced at the display screen and realized that they had only reached the third floor.

The elevator opened slowly and Averie strode off.

Elyette followed closely behind as his heartbeat sped up. “Averie Tate! What are you thinking?

“I am getting rid of this child!” Resentment filled her eyes as she shouted in a hoarse voice, “I have had enough! This child would only suffer if I give birth to it! If that’s destined to happen, why should I give birth to it?!”

Elyette had forced her to go through abortion when she got pregnant five years ago, and he had never imagined that things would take such a turn at the time.

He felt as though he had been stuck in the heart when he heard that she was going to get rid of their child and he could barely breathe through the excruciating pain.

Unable to think properly, he followed his instinct and stopped her.

“I won’t allow you to get rid of our child!” His eyes reddened as he grabbed her by the shoulder and stopped her from moving forward. “Give birth to it! Even if it’s a freak, you have to give birth to it!”

‘A freak! This is how he cursed his own child?’ Tears scrolled down her face at the thought and she shouted in tears, “you are the freak! You are!”

Unable to move her arms, she resorted to kicking him in the legs with all her might.

They were in the maternity ward at the time; there were countless women who came for abortion, and countless others had been overjoyed to find out that they were pregnant here.

There had been many couples who argued about what to do with their children, but it was rare to see an instance where the woman wanted an abortion while the man tried to keep the baby.

Someone took out their phone to take a video of them, and the bodyguard immediately hurried over to stop them.

Elyette lifted Averie up and strode towards the elevator.

‘She is too emotional right now. I have to take her away from her, or she will keep thinking about getting an abortion,’ he thought.

“Let me go! I have legs! I can walk on my own!” She punched him on the chest, but he refused to let go.

Once they were out of the hospital, he carried her towards the parking lot.

The bodyguard ran back to the car to open the car door for them.

Reluctant to be exposed to public view, Averie buried her face in Elyette’s chest. Once she was inside the car, she commanded coldly, “send me home, my home!”

Elyette sat down next to her and closed the car door.

The bodyguard sat in the driver’s seat and started the engine. “Where to, Mr. Foster?”

“Her house,” Elyette responded in a hoarse voice.

Averie was pregnant and it could affect the child inside her if she was too emotional, so he didn’t wish to provoke her any further.

Car sped forward. Once Averie had regained her composure, she took her phone out of her purse.

Elyette stared at her slightly flushed face which was directed towards the window at the moment, and swallowed, “Averie, I forbid you from getting rid of our child! Not if I don’t agree to it. Don’t even think about it!”

Her eyes reddened in rage. “And what if I have a miscarriage?”

Her question had caused a lump to form in Elyette’s throat and he was rendered speechless.

“The baby is barely three-months old, it’s not certain that it will survive! If you keep pissing me off every single day, I can assure you that it won’t.” Averie watched as Elyette gaped at her words and felt a rush from being able to retaliate.

He moved his lips, but did not say a word in the end. He knew that he shouldn’t provoke her any further when he remembered how hopeless Averie appeared to be back in the hospital.

She had plenty of chances to get rid of the baby before, but she didn’t; she suffered through the morning sickness in silence and did not get rid of the child despite losing so much weight, which meant that she wanted to give birth to it.

Elyette slowly began to regain his composure.

Averie calmed down and unlocked her phone to find messages from Mike, Tammy and Eric. She replied to them one by one to inform them that she was safe.

Shortly after, the car drove into Starry River Villa and stopped before Averie’s mansion.

Once the door was unlocked, she pushed it open and get out of the car; but so did Elyette.

“Why are you getting out as well? Go back.” Averie held onto her purse and stared at him across the car.

“Let’s talk.”

“Talk? What’s there to talk about?”

She was exhausted from the fight they had earlier and only wanted to go to sleep.

However, Elyette simply stood in front of the entrance of the mansion and waited for her to open the gate.

She walked towards him and opened the gate, before stepping into the yard with Elyette following closely behind..

She felt as though she was inviting a wolf into her house. When the door to the mansion was opened, he even hurried inside before she did.

She gaped when she saw him taking a pair of brand-new slippers from the shoe cabinet and changing into them.

“Don’t you see how ridiculous you are being, Elyette?” She watched as he changed into the slippers from the door and mocked, “weren’t you disgusted by the idea of me having your child back then? Have you forgotten about what happened all those years ago?”

‘How can I forget? Not only do I remember, the memories are carved into my brain,’ he thought.

“Throw sarcastic remarks at me all you want if that makes you feel any better, Averie.” He changed into the slippers and turned to look at her calmly.

“Are those pretty words supposed to cover the mistakes you made back then?” She said, before walking towards him to place her purse onto the shoe cabinet and changing into her slippers.

“My mistakes?” He chuckled and said, “I would do the exact same thing even if I have to do it all over again.”

She froze.

“Did I even know you that well back then?” He questioned sharply before she could react,” have you ever tried standing in my shoes to think about what you would have done back then if you were me?”

She stared at him dazedly.

“If you were me and you woke up to a wife you didn’t know, who was pregnant with my nephew’s child, what would you have done? No matter whose child that was, I couldn’t have accepted it,” he said coldly.

It was the first time Averie had heard about Elyette’s true thoughts throughout all the years and she felt that the rock on her chest was slightly lifted.

“You accuse me of not standing in your shoes, but have you tried standing in mine?” She retorted, “how do you think I got pregnant to begin with? It’s not like I can get pregnant on my own, can I?”

Elyette, too, was taken by surprise at her words.

“It was your mother’s plan! You knew all along, but you didn’t care. I understand that you forced me to get an abortion at the time because you didn’t love me, but I still hate you for it. It doesn’t matter what excuse you try to use, nothing can change that,” she gritted out while staring into his eyes.

Elyette was not enraged. He tried to calm down and thought about it. Though an abortion was a comparatively minor surgery with no life risk, but there would surely be pain and emotional trauma; just like how much it hurt for him when she said that she wanted to get rid of their child in the hospital. Perhaps she hurt as much when she was forced to go through the abortion five years ago.

He strolled towards the living room and stood still to wait for Averie to approach.

“What else do you want to talk about?” She walked towards the stairs, longing to go upstairs to rest.

“Are you going to sleep?” He studied her slim frame and lowered his defense.

“Yeah. We can talk first, though, if that’s what you want.”

Averie remained standing by the stairs with the sole intention of staying away from him, as her heart ached whenever she caught onto his scent. It was so familiar, yet destiny had made it so that their hearts were miles apart.

“Go to sleep!” He sat down on the couch. “I will leave in a while.”

“Oh…” She looked away from him and went upstairs.

Elyette stood up from the couch as soon as Averie was upstairs. He finally realized how self centered and selfish he had been all this while. He had never truly understood what she wanted. He had thought that he gave her everything he could and blamed her for not accepting him, when the truth was that what he gave was not what she wanted; and he had never once given her what she truly wanted.

After half an hour, Elyette assumed that Averie was asleep and unlocked his phone to call his family doctor.

“Congratulations on becoming a father, Mr. Foster,” the doctor said.

The hospital that Elyette had taken Averie to was the one where his family doctor worked.

“Is there a way to ease the morning sickness?” Elyette scowled and asked.

“No,” the doctor responded, “she will have to make it past it on her own. Usually, the symptoms would improve when the pregnancy progresses to around twelve to sixteen weeks. Miss. Tate is currently eight-weeks into her pregnancy, so she should feel better after a month.

“She has lost so much weight that she barely looks human.” Elyette clenched his fists, as his voice tightened up as well.

“That bad, huh? We can put her on IV if she really can’t eat. She’s a doctor, too, so she should know; unless she doesn’t want the child…”

“Indeed, she doesn’t want the child.”
