Love Comes Secretly After Their Contract Marriage novel Chapter 160

"What about my feelings then? I'm the father of the child in her womb. Do you understand how I feel now that I have lost my child?" Henry pointed upstairs and growled angrily.

His words choked Dominic. Guilt was apparent in his eyes.

Henry forcefully closed his eyes as he tried to calm himself down. "Dominic Conrad, who gave you the courage to do this? You kidnapped my wife and killed my child. Aren't you worried that I'd exact my revenge?"

Dominic started panicking at the mention of revenge." Henry, I know this is my fault but it is for the sake of saving Jackie's life."

"Yes, it is for the sake of saving Jackie. But did you have to kill my child to save her?" Henry looked at him dangerously.

“I had no choice! Why did she have to get pregnant at this time? I'm sure you know about Jackie’s situation. She's in grave danger. If she doesn’t undergo the surgery as soon as possible, her days are likely numbered..."

"I told you that I'd have Shane stabilize Jackie’s condition. Did you choose to ignore my words?" Henry picked up the teacup from the coffee table and

smashed it to the ground hard.

Dominic's old and wrinkled face paled in shock. "Yes, you did say that but Jackie would suffer even more if she receives an unsuitable bone marrow transplant. A s her father, I just can't bear to see her like that."

"You didn't want to bear it so you forcibly took someone else's bone marrow and even cruelly killed their child? You're really a hypocrite, Dominic Conrad." Henry mocked him mercilessly.

Embarrassment appeared on Dominic's old face. "I'm sorry Henry. If you have to blame someone, then you can place the blame on me. Please don’t blame Jackie, she knows nothing. She's innocent.”

"Innocent..." Henry merely sneered coldly and didn't say anything.

Dominic couldn’t guess the meaning behind his sneer. After thinking for a moment, he spoke up again," Henry. Your child may be gone, but you'll surely still have another child since you're still very young.

Besides, you don't love that woman. Why not take this chance to get a divorce? After all, Jackie has been waiting for you."

"Divorce?" Henry's eyes flashed coldly as realization dawned upon him. "So you did something so outrageous because that was your intention?”

"That... no. The main reason is still to save Jackie. I only came up with this idea since I thought that you didn't really care about this woman. After all, you were the one who suddenly changed your mind so I could only resort to doing this. However, I'll still compensate her."

"Yvonne Frey will not accept your compensation,” Henry derided him.

He knew how badly she wanted the child.

Now that the child was gone, he could already predict how upset she would be after she woke up.

Dominic frowned, "Won't accept the compensation? Then what does she want?"

Henry lowered his gaze and said nothing.

Dominic cast a silent glance at him and then probed," Henry, will you really get revenge on us?"

"This isn’t the end of it yet," Henry responded vaguely.

That scared the other man. "Henry, if you want revenge then just come at me. Please don’t do anything to Jackie. I'm worried that she won't be able t o take it. Besides, she just had her surgery. As long as she reconditions herself well, she'll get better in no time. I'm sure you don't want to see anything happen t o her again, right?"

These words undoubtedly hit a nail on his head.

His feelings toward Jacqueline were complicated.

Even until now, he couldn't tell if the feelings he had for her was love or something else.

The only thing he could be sure of was that he really didn't want to see anything happen to Jacqueline again.
