Chapter 375 She Was Pregnant
“I have an opportunity for an exchange program at Hall College, and I believe you know how crucial it is for medical students. As long as you leave Byron, I can give you this chance…”
William still didn’t mention divorce explicitly, but the implication of his words was clear that he wanted Cora and Byron to divorce.
Originally, he intended to reserve this exchange program opportunity for Jane.
However, the news of Cora and Byron registering their marriage caught them off guard.
Jane was devastated and spent the whole night drinking and smashing things in the house.
Moreover, many of the partnerships that the Yoris Group had were based on the prospect of becoming related to the Hansen family.
But after the bombshell news yesterday, many of these partnerships were abruptly canceled or became uncertain.
“It may be easy for me to leave, but have you considered my unborn child? Do you want me to become a single mother?”
Cora didn’t know why she said such things in front of William. Perhaps she was testing whether he still had any humanity left in him.
Apparently, William was overwhelmed by yet another piece of distressing news, and he struggled to find his words. “What? You and Byron…”
William was unable to continue, and Cora felt a pang of sympathy for him. After all, he was her biological father, so she didn’t want to see him in such a miserable state.
After a moment of contemplation, she pointed him in the right direction. “I don’t want to get married either, but I have no choice. So instead of trying to persuade me to divorce, why don’t you send Jane to Hall College for the exchange program? That way, she can stay away from all these troubles.”
If he could send Jane away, all the ugliness would remain hidden, and everyone could live peacefully.
But it was entirely up to him whether to agree or not.
Without wasting any more time, Cora left.
As William returned home in the evening, Sara immediately inquired him about the situation.
“How did it go? Did she agree?”
The idea of using the exchange program opportunity at Hall College as a bargaining chip had come from Sara herself.
Naturally, she was reluctant to let go of such a golden chance, which was a fantastic opportunity for Jane to excel.
But sometimes, people must make some sacrifices.
She couldn’t bear to see Jane continue in her current desolate state.
However, William didn’t give her the answer she wanted to hear. “She didn’t agree.”
“The opportunity of studying at Hall College is something countless people vie for. That bitch must want more.”
Sara felt as if she had poked a leech. No matter what she did, that woman didn’t seem to understand what satisfaction or restraint
was.
William sighed in frustration, “It’s not about her not being satisfied. She’s pregnant.”
This revelation shocked Sara. “Pregnant? Is she pregnant? Damn it!”
“Anyway, the child is innocent. Let’s forget it. After some time, we can send Jane to Hall College to take a break. Everything will pass,” William said.
As soon as he finished his words, a loud noise came from a corner of the room.
Chapter 375 She Was Pregnant
Both William and Sara turned around to see Jane standing there, looking pale and disheveled.
In front of her lay a shattered vase, which she had apparently accidentally knocked over.
“Jane, why are you here? I told the servants not to disturb you since you didn’t sleep well last night.”
Sara was heartbroken to see Jane’s deadly pale appearance.
Over the past few days, due to the news of Cora and Byron’s registration of marriage, Jane had been drowning her sorrows in alcohol, and her daily routine had gone haywire, making her look particularly desolate.
So, Sara and William had agreed that she wasn’t in a suitable state to work at the hospital and announced that she was on an academic exchange. The hospital had also granted her a few days of leave.
They only wanted to minimize the damage to Jane and quickly get Byron back from Cora. However, who could have predicted that Cora would get pregnant?
The worst was that Jane seemed to have overheard their conversation just now….
“Why must I give up my fiancé just because she’s pregnant?” Jane asked tearfully, looking as if the whole world had abandoned her.
