Mary’s tears cascaded down her face. “Don’t, Ellis, I beg you…”
“It’s no use. This time, I won’t be soft-hearted again!”
Ellis’s stance was very firm,
He held Mary’s arm tightly with one hand while the other gently straightened her hair. “Once this child is
gone, these rumors will subside in time. Later, it’ll be just the two of us, side by side…”
“Ellis! Don’t!!” Mary struggled to break free from his grip, almost shrieking, “I’m begging you! Don’t do
this!”
But Ellis didn’t give her another chance to speak and dragged her toward the guest bedroom.
In the living room, James, Charles, and even Victoria were all stunned.
The three of them watched the direction the two had left, all showing expressions of disbelief.
Victoria couldn’t help but nce at James and coughed before saying, “James, are you saying that the
child isn’t really Ellis’s?”
James’s face showed a troubled expression as if he had something to say but didn’t dare to speak it.
His straightforward nature was such that he could never keep a secret.
Victoria might not have known what had happened, but she was sure that her guess was absolutely
correct!
Charles, who was beside them, couldn’t help but say, “Does Ellis also suspect this? Was he tricked by
Mary?”
James snorted. “Fooling around before the wedding, I really don’t understand why Ellis would marry a
woman like that, and Uncle Olsen too…”
“What about me?”
The voice of Uncle Olsen came through, causing James’s voice to trail off slightly, and he froze. Then
he slowly turned around and smiled ingratiatingly. “Uncle, you are wise and peerless, truly beyond
compare!”
Uncle Olsen frowned. “Stop with the nonsense.”
After that, he looked up the stairs, unable to resist asking, “Where are your big brother and
sister-inw?”
James was taken aback and looked toward the side
room.
Uncle Olsen furrowed his brows. “What is it?”
James coughed. “Ellis and Mary went to the guest
room.”

“Doing what in the guest room?”
As Uncle Olsen said this, he took a couple of steps toward the guest room.
However, Victoria immediately said, “Uncle, Ellis and Mary are newlyweds. They surely have some
private
words to share. Let’s not disturb them!”
Uncle Olsen didn’t think much of it and nodded, then
took a seat on the sofa.
In just a short while, Ellis’s parents also came in.
Uncle Olsen greeted them. “Hello, guys.”
Mr. Olsen was very polite to his younger brother, giving a nod with a smile, then quickly looking around,
his brows furrowed in concern. “Where is Ellis? Howe he hasn’t arrived yet? The child really
doesn’t understand. How could he keep his Uncle waiting?”
Mrs. Olsen exined to Uncle Olsen with a smile. “He must have been dyed by something.”
Uncle Olsen didn’t mind them and simply asked both
to sit down.
Victoria’s gaze, however, returned to the direction of the guest room.
Mary had married into the Olsen family relying on that child. If the child was gone, her inws would
surely not tolerate her!
Before they were married, she dared to give trouble to her, as the younger sister-inw. Now it was
time for Mary to taste the bitterness of being utterly alone!
Caught up in her thoughts, a maid came over with a bowl of medicine.
The medicine emitted a strong bitter odor that immediately spread to the living room, alerting Mr. Olsen,
Mrs. Olsen, and everybody else who saw the nanny carrying the medicine to the guestroom.
Mrs. Olsen instantly stood up, tense with concern. “What’s this medicine? What’s happened? Mary isn’t
feeling unwell, is she? She’s pregnant right now; she
can’t just take any modicin
Having said that, she stood up, ready to walk over
there.
But Victoria grabbed her arm. “Auntie, actually, I didn’t want to tell you all about this, but now I think I
should.”
She took out her phone and handed the document to Mrs. Olsen.
Mrs. Olsen nced at it only briefly before flinging the phone away. “What is this messy, filthy
nonsense? Just looking at this thing could curse you with a sty!
Victoria, you’re so young. Where did you get this from?”
Victoria paused for a moment, her face tinged with awkwardness.
She then steered the conversation back on track. “No, this has been circting in our circle. The
hostess mentioned in it refers to your eldest daughter-inw!”
It was only then that Mrs. Olsen reacted. “What?”
Victoria cast a nce at James before speaking up, “Everyone is saying that Austin wrote this. He
admitted it himself. More than two months ago, he had a one-night stand with your daughter-inw. As
soon as Ellis heard it, he immediately dragged her to the guestroom and then had the nanny bring
abortion pills…”
Victoria expressed concern, Auntie, even if your daughter-inw did get together with Austin, it was a
mistake before marriage. Isn’t Ellis being a bit too
harsh?”
At these words, James couldn’t hold back, immediately retorting, “How is Ellis being too harsh? She
married in carrying another man’s child, making a cuckold of him. Just having her terminate the
pregnancy is already being kind to her!”
These words left Victoria slightly dumbfounded.
“James, what do you mean by that? Are you saying the child really isn’t the Ellis’s?”
As Mrs. Olsen was about to rush over, she stopped in her tracks upon hearing this, looking bewildered
at
James.
James was choked up, and after a long pause, he finally spoke, “Yes, it’s not. That’s why Ellis’s actions
are right. It should be this way! To prevent our Olsen Family’s reputation from being tarnished!”
Victoria immediately asked, “How do you know it’s
not?”
This time, James protected Ellis’s privacy. “I just know. Don’t worry about how I found out!”
Mr. Olsen and Mrs. Olsen exchanged nces, worry evident in their eyes.
If the child wasn’t Ellis’s, should they still try to stop it?!
In the guestroom.
Ellis trapped Mary on the couch, staring at her intensely.
His eyes were bloodshot as he gazed at Mary.
Mary was still pleading desperately. “Ellis, no, this child is truly yours!”
This only incited Ellis’s sense of irony.
He had believed Mary’s lies and had gone to the hospital for tests over and over, only to be told each
time that he had azoospermia…
It couldn’t be that three different hospitals were
deceiving him!
So, the only person deceiving him had to be Mary.
He watched as Mary pleaded desperately before him, and suddenly, he grabbed her throat. “Mary, shut
up! I don’t want to hear you say that again! I won’t believe
you!”
Mary’s voice indeed stopped
Her eyes were red with swelling tears as she looked at Ellis.
Ellis then slowly approached her. “Mary, terminate this pregnancy, keep to yourself from now on, and I’ll
have a good life with you. I’ll treat you well…”
Mary closed her eyes in agony, tears rolling do cheeks as she resignedly hung her head.
Just then, the door to the adjacent bedroom was
suddenly kicked open!
