Mary couldn’t believe what she was seeing as she took Victoria’s phone and saw the document named


    after today’s date.


    1


    She opened the document and saw that it renamed Austin to Mr. G and herself to Miss MD, narrating


    the love and hate between the two.


    Thenguage was simple and crude, filled with vulgar and obscene words.


    Words like “breasts,” “buttocks,” and other provocative terms made Mary’s vision go dark.


    The document told the story of a hostess, except this hostess was high-ss, exclusively entertaining


    the members of the five great families of nce.


    This hostess seduced Mr. G repeatedly during the festivities andter found her way to his room,


    pleading sorrowfully to get Mr. G to agree to a


    coboration between their families.


    The indecent jokes written above were almost too


    much to bear…


    <


    Mary read on, her fingers trembling with anger as she felt as if she had been stripped bare. Although


    she knew full well she hadn’t done such things, the writing was convincingly realistic.


    The document even specified the private room number of the hotel where the contract was signed, and


    what was more, there was ament section below where someone anonymously provided evidence


    confirming that on that day, the Davis family and the Gll family indeed discussed a coboration there.


    Mary and Austin were indeed in that private room that


    day…


    And someone came forward to testify, iming to have seen Mary and Austin get into a car together


    after the


    meal!


    Mary felt a rush of frantic breaths and suddenly looked up, wanting to exin something, but though


    she opened her mouth, she found herself unable to speak.


    She instinctively nced at Ellis.


    The others looked at him as well.


    <


    James couldn’t help but say, “Ellis, Mary has been


    exposed doing such things. We need to provide an exnation to the public!”


    Benjamin immediately nodded. “This matter can’t be left as is. Mary, do you actually have that kind of


    rtionship with Austin?”


    Mary hurriedly shook her head. “No.”


    Victoria then asked, “If not, why are there testimonies from the hotel staff? Mary, considering the timing,


    this child could be Austin’s. It’s not Ellis’s, right?”


    Upon hearing this, James thought about the report of azoospermia and subconsciously looked at Ellis,


    only to see his elder brother gripping his cup tightly.


    He remained silent.


    Benjamin immediately turned to Ellis, “Ellis, it can’t be, can it? This child isn’t really Austin’s, is it? If


    that’s the case, we can’t let this child be born! Otherwise, how much more shame would the Olsen


    family suffer?!”


    James also nodded in agreement. “Right, we can’t keep this child! Ellis, we might as well make it look


    like an ident and have her lose the child, that would be


    hatter for Quervon ronutation and quan if we can’t


    <


    suppress this scandal now, it’ll quiet down after some time. But if we keep the child, there will always


    be talk of a DNA test in the future, and the child will be a perpetual topic for outsiders.”


    Victoria was astonished to hear this.


    She looked at James in puzzlement, not understanding why he would say such things.


    She couldn’t help but frown and look toward Ellis again, only to see his expression cold and seemingly


    different from the smiling Ellis she knew before.


    She couldn’t help but furrow her brow.


    Could it be… Was this child really not Ellis’s?


    With this thought, she spoke with irritation, “Don’t like that. How could Ellis and Mary not know who th


    child’s father is? It should be Ellis’s child, right? If we calcte the timing, Mary’s pregnancy is almost


    three months along. Why don’t we wait a few more days and run a DNA test? Wouldn’t that solve it?”


    James opposed. “We can’t do a DNA test!”


    If they did, it would reveal that the child was not his


    Ellis’s!


    His reaction, however, made everyone turn their gaze


    toward him.


    Ellis seemed to sense something too, and looked


    toward him.


    James coughed. “I think having it done might actually be worse… but as of now, the best solution


    indeed seems to be an abortion, after all, the origins of this child are unclear…”


    Mary heard their discussion, feeling as if the warmth from her entire body was being slowly drained


    away.


    Incredulously, she looked at everyone in the room, her gaze sweeping over each younger member of


    the Olsen family, finally resting on Ellis.


    She stared fixedly at Ellis. “I won’t have an abortion.”


    Ellis’s expression darkened.


    Even now, she was still protecting this bastard child. Perhaps its father wasn’t Mr. G, but who could it


    be that made her so defensive?


    Ellis’s eyes gradually reddened.


    He sneered, “It’s not me who’s telling you to have an


    abortion. It’s because of the mess you’ve created. If


    09.36


    you


    don’t have an abortion, how is the Olsen family supposed to exin this to the outside world?!”


    Mary was stunned by his words.


    Her jaw tensed, and she clenched her fists tightly. “Ellis, this child is yours. What do I have that’s so


    hard to exin? When I’m three months pregnant, can’t we just get an amniocentesis done?”


    But Ellis suddenly stood up, “Without resolving this issue, do you want to turn the Olsen family into the


    laughingstock of the entire nce?”


    He approached Mary, lowering his voice, and said, “You know very well whose child this is, why must I


    be the one to reveal it? Mary, I’ve said it, as long as you have the abortion, you’ll still be the good


    daughter-inw the Olsen family!”


    Mary’s eyes rimmed with redness.


    She knew she had a bad reputation, but she hadn’t expected it to lead to such suspicions.


    She lowered her gaze. “There’s no need for that. If the Olsen family feels shamed, I’m willing to divorce


    you, so I won’t cause the Olsen family any more


    reputational trouble!”


    08.25


    Leaving those words behind, she turned to leave.


    But her wrist was suddenly seized by Ellis with a strong grip. “You think you can just walk away? And


    after that? The Olsen family will be the biggest joke in all of nce!”


    Mary attempted to break free from his grasp, shouting angrily, “Then what do you want to do?”


    Ellis stared at her intently.


    His gaze then fell on her abdomen…


    He’d been disgusted with this child for a long time. If Mary wanted the baby, he could have thought of


    other solutions, but he couldn’t stand Mary’s actions in protecting the child!


    All those abject pleas made him feel like the child’s father was very important to her!


    Ellis gave a bitter smile.


    He knew that after today, Mary might hate him, but he simply couldn’t carry on like this, so let it be!


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Even if she hated him, she would have to spend her life with him!

    Ellis directed his gaze to a servant nearby. “Go brew a


    bowl of abortion concoction.”


    The servant was startled but immediately nodded and


    left.


    Mary, incredulous, widened her eyes…


    She clenched her fists tightly, looking at Ellis in astonishment. “Ellis, don’t…”


    “Mary, the abortion drug works quickly. After you take it, that evil seed will be gone, and afterward, I’ll


    treat you very well…”


    Ellis, however, held her tightly, refusing to let her go.
