Joshua was worth it...unlike Jim.
As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie started to doubt her decision to keep the baby.
Was she really going through with the pregnancy?
Jim was not worth her sacrifice at all.
"Careful, careful."
At this moment, Sean had returned to the car, and with Harvey's help, he slowly brought Shelly out of her seat. He carried her in his arms carefully, as though he were afraid she would break.
Bonnie had to admit that in many aspects, Sean was almost an identical copy of Jim. As she watched him carry Shelly, she could not help imaging the scene of Jim holding their future baby in his arms.
As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie felt as though an invisible hand was squeezing her heart.
"Bonnie?" Harvey walked over to her, having noticed the sorrow in her eyes, and gently clasped her hand. "It's getting late now; shall we go rest?"
He even grinned at her, trying to lighten the mood. "You still have to accompany me to Aunt Luna and Uncle Joshua's house to bring June here tomorrow.
"Now that Uncle Christopher isn't in Merchant City, I'm the closest family she has, and I promised her that I'll take good care of her."
A surge of warmth spread into Bonnie's heart, accompanied by a twinge of sadness.
She crouched to hug him and replied," Okay. Men should stick to their word."
She hoped that Harvey would grow up to be a man of his word, unlike the people she had encountered in her past...
For example, the young boy she had met at the orphanage when she was young, who had promised her that he would return for her but did not show up.
