Second Chance At Love

Chapter 30

Inside the room, Ada questioned, “Why? You’re both still young. How can it be possible that you won’t have a kid? Jason, you’re lying to me, aren’t you?”

Jason didn’t want to elaborate, but he knew Ada wouldn’t let the matter go unless he satisfied her curiosity. “Ever since her miscarriage two years ago. I’ve been giving her birth control pills. Plus, with only one fallopian tube, her chances of conceiving are virtually nil

Ada clearly didn’t believe him and pursed her lips. “You must be deceiving me. As far as I know, Sophia has been desperately trying to conceive for the past two years. If she was taking birth control pills, why would she go through all that trouble!”

Jason’s last shred of patience wore thin at her relentless probing. Tve been giving her that without her knowledge. Well, let’s not talk about that,

Don’t mention it to Sophia. It’s late, you should rest.

Outside, Sophia leaned weakly against the wall, trembling uncontrollably, ‘He’s been giving me birth control for two years, huh! It’s not that there’s something wrong with me that I can’t conceive; it’s because of him. While he cut off all my chances of having a child, he coldly watched as I ran around trying to prepare for a pregnancy. Heh, what am I in his eyes! What’s the child I fought so hard for to him? Just a joke? she thought.

Sophia had thought Jason having an affair was the cruelest thing he had done to her and that nothing else he did could hurt her. But now

Hatred grew wildly in Sophia’s eyes, swallowing what little affection she had left.

“It’s not that I can’t get pregnant; it’s that he never wanted me to. He looks down on our child, so he went abroad and joyfully returned with his old lover and their illegitimate child, aiming for a picture– perfect family, she thought painfully. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Enveloped by boundless darkness and despair, Sophia slowly closed her eyes, her palm gently touching her stomach, tears rolling down her cheeks.

‘Baby, what should we do! From the start, all of this was a mistake. Your father never looked forward to your arrival. In his eyes, we are burdens; she thought. Her fingers clutched tightly at her clothes as a crazy idea of revenge began to take shape in her mind. Jason made her suffer, and she vowed to

make his life a living hell.

Inside the room, Jason seemed to sense someone outside and turned, preparing to check.

However, Ada clung to his arm, weakly saying, Jason, stay with me tonight, will you!”

Although she didn’t know why Jason had been giving Sophia birth control, she was sure that once Jason found out about Sophia’s unexpected pregnancy, he would insist on the child being born. So before that happened, she had to find a way to get rid of the child in Sophia’s womb.

Jason gently pried her fingers away, saying calmly. “Be good. I still need to be with Grandma. Get some sleep. With that, he gave Ada no chance to speak further and left the room.

Ada tightened her fists as she watched his indifferent departure. Even with the lifesaving grace, I never truly had his heart. Why should Sophia be in it! I won’t let her get what she wants, even if it means to destroy everything, she thought.

Not long after Sophia returned to her room, Jason entered with a glass of milk in hand. He walked steadily toward the bed. “You’re awake. Come on drink this milk.”

Sophia looked at the cup in his hand and remembered the humiliating experience at the pavilion, and it all clicked. For two years, she had wondered why Jason always offered her a glass of milk after they had . Now she knew. He had been mixing birth control in her milk; he never intended to have a child with her. It was all one–sided on her part.

“What if I don’t drink it?” she asked.
