Nathaniel had said such words. At that moment, Melanie felt that their relationship was ending!
"Fine! Since you're sorry for her, I'll leave!" She stood up and wiped her tears before continuing, "From now on, you don't need to worry about the baby and me! I'll leave!"
She deliberately mentioned the baby to see his reaction and pressure him. What she did not expect was that this trump card was useless.
Nathaniel looked at her coldly, "Do you really plan to give me a child, Mel?"
Melanie immediately felt guilty. She did not intend to keep the baby and had made an appointment for the abortion in two days. Apart from her health condition, there was also her affair with Frank. She knew that it would eventually be a thorn in Nathaniel's heart. She cannot have the baby hold her back. Therefore, she absolutely cannot have the baby.
The baby was her bargaining chip in negotiating with Nathaniel, as he did not know about the upcoming abortion. Could it be that the bargaining chip was useless now?
Melanie must not panic. She concealed her guilt and stubbornly said, "What do you mean? Do you mean I faked my pregnancy? Do you know how difficult it is
to be pregnant? I can't eat or sleep well! I have to help you and the company! Who do you think I'm doing this for?!
"I know that you're still blaming me. You hate me, and even if the reason I did that was for you and MN Inc., you still can't forgive me! Am I right?" She cried and hated him for being heartless, "I can understand! You don't have to use these excuses to hurt me. Since you can’t accept it, we can break up. I won't hold you back. You can go to your old flame, but don't regret it in the future!"
After she said that, she turned around and left.
She raised her legs high, but her stride remained tiny. Sure enough, she heard him calling her from behind before she reached the door. "Mel!"
She stood still. There were tears in her eyes, but she was already smiling.
However, before she could laugh, she heard him say,' I'm sorry."
She turned around and looked at him with wide-open eyes. She could not believe what he said. "What did you just say? What do you mean you're sorry?!"
She thought he would coax and comfort her after a few seconds, just like before. After all, she knew him well and was best at grasping his heart.
What did he mean when he said that he was sorry? What was he planning to do?
Melanie quickly walked back toward the hospital bed. She bent down and held his hand, "No, please don't say you're sorry, Nate! You did nothing to apologize to me. I didn't mean to blame you. I'm willing to do anything for you, but I don't want to break up with you. I don't want to lose you. I know that I've hurt you, and I'm very sorry. I regret it, and I'm also sad about it. Can we forget that unfortunate event? I promise it’ll never happen again!
"We'll be happy forever! We still have a baby. We will be a happy family, right?" She pulled his hand and placed it on her lower abdomen while saying so.
