"Oh... If that's so, I..."
Lucille's mind was in a state of chaos. She did not even know what to say or express. She felt a strong contradiction in her heart.
She wanted to explain to Franklin, but at the same time, she felt that she shouldn't. He had already said so, and she could not be too selfdegrading.
While she was still in a dilemma, Franklin pushed her away and strode into the ward.
"No!"
The ward was small. She wanted to block him again, but he had already walked towards the baby crib.
Aurora, who had only been born for a few days, slept quietly in the baby crib. Her chubby little face was cute, her eyes were shut, and her long eyelashes could be seen even more clearly.
However, Franklin soon saw the flaw in her face.
It was so obvious and so incompatible with her quiet and lovely little face...
"This...
He was taken aback. He seemed to have suddenly understood why Lucille wanted to stop him and prevent him from coming in.
Lucille stepped forward and stood in between the baby crib and Franklin. She looked at him angrily and said, "I can sign a contract. No matter who sired the child, I won't take a single penny from you, is that alright?"
In fact, she had already indirectly admitted that the child belonged to him.
"I want to do a paternity test."
Franklin stared at Lucille, and he could feel her change. It had only been a short ten months, but she was not the same innocent girl he saw when he came back home in the past anymore.
She seemed to have matured a lot over the past few months.
"No..."
He frowned, "Why not?"
"This... This is not your child." She did not want to deny it, but she had no other choice.
She used to look forward to Franklin admitting the child to be his, and to admit her as well. However, now, she understood that after the things that happened during her pregnancy, they could not go back to the past anymore.
"Even so, I still want to do a paternity test. I only believe in the test!"
Franklin had already guessed that Lucille would say that!
"No, I beg of you! Aurora is still so young. Please don't hurt her... She's not your child. She's really not."
She was her own child.
"Get out of my way. Don't force me."
Franklin seemed to have been possessed by a devil. He wanted to prove that the child was his so that he could bring Lucille and the child back to his side.
"No..."
She was still blocking him, using her entire body to protect the crib.
Franklin glanced at the woman in front of him. He got into a bad mood when he saw how cautious she was towards him when he was around.
Back then, even if he treated her horribly, Lucille would still be looking at him with hope, wanting to please him, as if she would never be angry with him no matter what he did.
But now, their relationship had turned out to be like... this.
"You're not budging?" He stared at her and moved forward impulsively. His huge palm suddenly grabbed the back of her head and pushed her towards his lips.
The scent which she had not smelled for a long time felt strange yet familiar. It entered Lucille's mouth, making her mind go blank in an instant.
His kiss had always been gentle, but this time, it was not. The moment he pounced on her, she felt a large amount of air being snatched away from her.
His kiss was full of aggression and invasiveness!
"Oh!"
Lucille was stunned for a few seconds, and then she quickly pushed the man away!
