Chapter 1169 Is This a Blessing or a Curse?
On one hand, people from the Lowry family were discussing Janet’s pregnancy excitedly. On the other hand, people from the MX were gritting their teeth.
“F*ck. She’s pregnant?”
“Isn’t she only 19?”
“Our boss is still so young! How could Mason Lowry do this to her?”
“What a beast! He made Janet pregnant at such a young age. What if there is a problem in the future?”
Janet lowered her head while listening and said nothing.
As soon as Herbert and James heard this, their expressions changed, and their eyes were locked on Janet.
Herbert was the first to react. He looked at Janet with a calm face and opened his mouth. “Janet, you…”
He hesitated.
As if she knew what he was going to say to her, Janet finally raised her eyes at this moment. Lifting her eyebrows, she said casually, “Can you guys please leave the room for now? I want to get some rest.”
Herbert pursed his lips and said nothing more.
Henry, Sean, and the others left the room happily.
After a while, everyone had left—only James still stood there motionlessly.
Before leaving, he added, “Janet, whether it’s a blessing or a curse, you have to consider it carefully.”
Although she might not be happy to hear this now, in this situation, it was indeed not the right time for her to have a baby.
Hearing that, Janet merely glanced at him and said nothing.
……..
The room returned to the silence it was shrouded in earlier, whereupon Janet turned to look at Mason.
His lips were pursed, and there was no response from him.
Janet frowned and asked lightly, “So?”
The man seemed to be still in shock and did not respond.
After a while, Janet patted his shoulder. Finally, he raised his head to say something.
At this point, they were facing each other while their gaze interlocked.
Mason looked directly into Janet’s eyes, and her words ‘I’m pregnant’ kept repeating in his mind.
She is pregnant with my child…
For a moment, Mason felt that his brain was about to explode.
He couldn’t tell if he was in disbelief or ecstatic.
Those words were not enough to express what he really felt in his heart.
For a long time, Mason didn’t respond. He could only manage to stare at her blankly.
Impatient, Janet raised her eyebrows and asked coldly, “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy? You don’t want the baby?”
To be frank, they didn’t get to take their contraception measures every time, but sometimes when it was too late for Mason to wear a condom, she would take emergency contraceptives afterward instead.
That being so, they still managed to ‘get lucky’ this time.
She knew that it wasn’t all a matter of luck, because it was as if they had sex more times in a day than they had meals—even if measures were taken, getting pregnant was only a matter of time.
Thinking of this, Janet’s ears turned red.
Mason, on the other hand, stayed silent and only looked at her quietly.
This attitude of his made Janet a little unhappy—anger rose in her chest as she glared at him. “You really don’t want the baby?”
Her voice was low and cool, and it finally snapped him back to reality.
He took a glance at her flat belly, got off the bed, and immediately tried to walk out of the isolation room while holding her hand.
“Mason…” Janet stopped him in confusion.
The man looked back at her and touched her face with a hint of comfort. “I’ll get a female doctor to operate on you.”
What?
Is he asking me to get an abortion?
Janet shook his hand off and glared at him. “What do you mean? If I were to get an abortion, I will get Herbert and James to help me with it.”
“No.” The man refused strongly without a second thought. “They are men!”
Perhaps he realized that his attitude was inappropriate, but after he recovered from the shock, his voice became lower and more gentle. “This is all my fault—it’s all because I couldn’t hold back. I will try my best to compensate you after your surgery.”
Janet turned her head and said coldly, “It also has the right to live, so I won’t have the surgery—”
“Babe, I can follow your decision in everything, but you must follow mine in this.” Mason’s eyes were bloodshot as he spoke.
Janet pursed her lips and closed her eyes gently.
Looking at her reaction, Mason even thought of chopping off his member. His voice was slightly hoarse as he held her tightly in his arms.
Janet struggled slightly but did not try to break free—though reluctantly, she stayed in his arms.
