Chapter 1935
“I can’t hide anything from you after all.” Bonnie smiled bitterly. “I didn’t expect you’d come, and if Luna had come to pick me up alone, I would’ve been able to hide this from her, but…”
Bonnie let out a small sigh.
Joshua was so sharp and observant that just one glance at her was enough to convince him that something was different about her.
Bonnie knew that if she did not admit the truth, Joshua would still have another way of finding out.
Therefore, there was no point in hiding the truth.
After letting out another sigh, Bonnie propped herself up on the bed weakly.
She extended her pale, almost colorless hand to take a piece of paper out of her pocket.
As soon as she saw this, a bad feeling crept into Luna’s heart.
She stormed forward and snatched the paper out of Bonnie’s hands.
As soon as she laid eyes on the neatly printed words on the page, Luna felt as though she had been struck by lightning, and she took a small step back in shock. “Bonnie, you…”
“I underwent an abortion. I can’t possibly keep this child anymore.” Bonnie let out a forced smile and said, her eyes etched with sadness and morose, “Luna, when I was at Landry Mansion just now, I saw with my own two eyes as Jim put his bare hand on a boiling hot kettle to protect Charlotte.
“He was willing to put himself in danger to protect her, and before this, he had told me that I mattered less to him than even a finger of hers.”
As soon as she thought of this, Bonnie could not help letting out a self-deprecating chuckle. “Even after this, I still refused to believe the truth, and I thought that as long as I tried harder, Jim would eventually remember me, that everything would go back to normal. How stupid I am.
“Seeing what he was willing to do for Charlotte made me understand the difference between Charlotte and me.
“To him, I’m the person that matters the least, so much so that even after losing his memories, he can remember everyone, including you and Charlotte, except me.
“He doesn’t remember me at all, not even a single bit. Even though I’m pregnant with his child, he still refused to give me a second glance.
“I guess we were never meant to be after all.”
With that, Bonnie closed her eyes and curled her lips into a smirk. “Even though getting pregnant with this child is akin to a miracle for me, I don’t want my child to go through life without a father. I don’t want my child to suffer a life full of loneliness.
“My childhood was tough enough, and I don’t want my future child to have to go through the same.”
Luna bit her lip when she heard this.
She clenched her fists next to her and opened her mouth to say something, but no words came out.
Finally, she let out a sigh, strode over to Bonnie’s side, and pulled her into a tight embrace.
Since Bonnie had already gone through with the abortion, it was too late to change anything, and she did not want to say anything that would upset Bonnie further.
“That’s okay. It’s about time you start afresh now, Bonnie. My brother…he isn’t worth your time now.”
Joshua could not help frowning when he heard this. “You said that Jim isn’t worth your time now, but what if he regains his memories?
“The Jim we know now isn’t the same person as the one we used to know.”
With that, he walked over to Bonnie and fixed his dark, penetrating stare on her eyes. “Jim is now under someone else’s control, so don’t you think it’s a little cruel of you to break up with him and get rid of his child without his consent now?”
Luna immediately furrowed her brows in disapproval when she heard this. “Joshua!”
Why was Joshua saying things like this, knowing that Bonnie was upset enough? Besides, why did he have to bring up the fact that Jim was under Charlotte’s control?
