Chapter 669
“Maybe. It’s my first time too, and I don’t have experience with pregnancy,” Sheena said indifferently.
Then, she stood up and casually walked over to the sofa.
Nathaniel took a deep breath and quickly instructed Jamie to call the palace’s on–duty doctor to examine Sheena’s body.
After a brief check–up, the doctor bowed at Nathaniel and informed him, “Congratulations, Mr. Charles. Ms. Lawson is two and a half weeks pregnant. You’re going to be a father!”
He was going to be a father? The irony!
Nathaniel glared at the doctor, his eyes filled with rage as if he wanted to destroy everything.
He violently swept the teacups off the table to the floor.
“Get out, all of you!”
The doctor was frightened and quickly left with Jamie.
When only Nathaniel and Sheena remained in the room, he approached her, gripping her chin to
confirm.
“Is it Elliot’s?”
“Who else could it be?” Sheena sneered. “Certainly not yours.
Nathaniel gritted his teeth, and his fierce eyes were terrifying.
“We’re aborting that child tomorrow!”
“Why should I?” Sheena pushed away his hand, adopting a firm stance. “Nathaniel, this is my child. You have no right to decide its life or death!”
“But he’s also Elliot’s child!” His eyes were red, and he roared, “You’re marrying me soon! You’re my woman! I won’t allow this child to live in this world!”
“Nathaniel, I forbid you from touching this child!”
Sheena stared back at him unyieldingly.
“Now that everyone in the palace knows I’m pregnant, they think it’s your child. You deliberately created an illusion of our happy relationship on stage today. If something happens to me now, how do you think others will view you? Do you want everyone to turn against you?”
“So, you deliberately planned to scheme against me?”
Nathaniel belatedly realized the truth, and uncontrollable anger surged within him. He grabbed her neck, forcing her down onto the sofa.

“Sheena, why would you treat me like this? I chose my career over you seven years ago, but I regret it now. I’ve been trying to make amends for all those years. Why can’t you give me another chance?”
He glared at her angrily. Yet, the tears falling down his cheeks betrayed his true emotions.
“Lately, your attitude toward me has improved, and you even accepted my flowers tonight. I thought my efforts were finally being recognized, that you were trying to accept me. But you just used reality to tell me that my wishful thinking is nothing but a joke!”
Nothing was more despairing than having hope and being thrown back into the abyss by reality!
Despite feeling suffocated and being pushed down, Sheena scoffed. “You say I schemed against you, but how many times have you schemed against me? You promised not to deceive me again once I came to Laubabwe, to treat me honestly. Have you lived up to that promise?”
Nathaniel’s grip loosened slightly.
Faced with her questioning, he awkwardly averted his gaze.
Sheena stared at him with a glint of hatred in her eyes.
Tonight, she talked to Harrold about Clear.
Harrold revealed that Kelly had given the medicine to Nathaniel half a month ago, and it was now in Nathaniel’s possession. However, Nathaniel lied to her, claiming the medicine was still stored in the palace storage, using this to consume Elliot’s remaining time and deceive her into continuing the
charade.
When Elliot’s body could not endure any longer, Nathaniel would have achieved his goal–preserving Clear and marrying her, leaving Elliot to die miserably.
He was simply too cunning!
“Nathaniel vou’re nothing more than a beast! A despicable creature worse than any animal!”
