My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 210

However, during their investigation, they found something.

Back then, Henry had thought that these only happened in soap operas, but unfortunately, he was wrong.

"My aunt had three miscarriages, that my grandmother just couldn't watch her suffer, you know? So she asked the doctor if the couple had any physical condition that could prevent them from having a baby,"

he explained.

"The result was shocking. The doctor discovered that the fetus couldn't grow naturally because of the abnormalities of the couple's DNA. There weren't any infections or abnormalities per se,

but it's just that they're too similar!

Turns out, my great grandfather and the man's grandfather were brothers."

Lea's jaw dropped as she gazed at him in disbelief. "Is that true?"

He nodded. "The man's father is actually related to us. In fact, he's one of our relatives. His parents divorced when he was a child, so he lives with his mother.

Although they weren't part of the immediate family, they're still related by blood."

Henry remembered the shock on his

grandmother's face. She was so surprised that she actually locked herself up in a room.

After a period of time, she had absorbed the idea and started to arrange all the chaos that had erupted in the household.

She might have experienced plenty of disagreements and obstacles,

but this was the first time she had encountered such a thing.

The man knew about the results, but Henry's aunt still knew nothing about it.

The Qin family all made sure to keep it from her and the outsiders.

It would be such a disgrace if news were to break out.

As it could be seen,

the marriage between them wasn't a good thing.

In fact, it could disparage their reputation.

They chose not to tell Henry's aunt to not hurt her feelings, but three miscarriages were enough to arouse suspicion.

His aunt was not stupid. Back then, all her family members had agreed with the marriage, but after the results, they started voicing their thoughts against it.

Her brother was the prime example for the matter.

Finally, after her careful investigation, she found out the results.

Things were still a mess at home. If Henry told them that he got his girlfriend pregnant

and that he was also planning to marry her, it would just add salt to the injury.

Henry winced.

His aunt still hadn't solved her own issues yet, and he was already rubbing his own happiness against her face.

At that moment, it would hurt them more if he cut to the chase.

"It's not that I don't want to inform my family now, but..."

Before he could finish, Lea waved her hand dismissively.

"I understand what's going on. We can wait."

It seemed that she finally came to terms with his past.

She rubbed the back of her neck and avoided his intense gaze as she continued,

"I've already accepted you the moment I agreed to your proposal. Whatever happens may happen, but you're the only one who I value the most, okay?" She tried to hide her rosy cheeks, but it was impossible. In reality, Lea loved Henry with or without the baby.

Upon hearing her words, Henry felt his throat dry up. He stretched out his arm and held her against his chest.

He had always thought that she only agreed to him was because she didn't have a choice.
