Substitute Marriage With the Illegitimate Son novel Chapter 606

Seth met Tasha's gaze and said expressionlessly, "Not a chance."

Seth was indifferent by nature, but the child in Tasha's belly was still his. A big and prominent family in Seacisco like the Lester family attached great importance to offspring.

Moreover, it was his first child. Seth would never allow his firstborn child to live with anyone else but him.

It was his child. He simply wouldn't let others take it away from him.

He believed Tasha foolishly thought highly of herself. A woman was just a tool for having children. The child would carry on his surname, not hers. What right did she have to take the child away?

"The baby is also mine, Seth. Don't you think you're being too selfish? Oh, never mind. You'll never understand anyway." All of a sudden, Tasha got worked up. Her dilated pupils reflected the movement in the TV. "If the child lives with you, it'll be impossible for it to ever be happy. I can only imagine how badly you'll treat our child. The child will be ruined, or worse—it'll become another soulless machine, just like its father."

Tasha squeezed her eyes shut and shuddered. If that was the child's fate, she'd rather not bring it into this world.

Seth reached into his pocket for his lighter and cigarette case.

"Ruined? The Lester family will provide nothing but the best for the child. That's better than the child living with you, a divorced woman."

Tasha was speechless. She knew beforehand that it would be useless to reason with such an unreasonable person. She put the plate of fruit down and stood up to go upstairs. "Either the child stays with me or no divorce. It's as simple as that."

Seth grabbed Tasha's wrist. His tone was domineering and unusually sharp. "The child will stay with the Lester family. There is no room for discussion. If you don't agree to the divorce, I actually have plenty of ways to make you do it." "What—what do you want?" Frightened by the crazed look in his eye, Tasha's face turned pale.
