Chapter 145 - Should Be Pregnant

Maya’s sudden action left everyone at the dining table stunned, wondering who she was disgusted with.

Elia watched Maya’s furrowed brows and her motion of covering her mouth,

so he turned his head and asked Hannah, "Mom, could Maya be pregnant?"

As soon as Elia spoke, Jane Spencer and Hannah were dumbfounded, and the nearby servants were even more shocked, everyone wide-eyed with innocent expressions.

At this moment, Jane Spencer snapped back to reality, slammed the table, and yelled at Elia, "Elia, what nonsense are you talking? Which eye of yours ever saw Maya and Liam have a relationship, or saw Maya being pregnant? Are you tired of living? I haven’t even settled the score with you for your tricks last time, and now your mouth is starting to run wild again."

Although Jane Spencer was defending Maya and Liam, the image of them sleeping in the same bed flashed across her mind, which she had witnessed herself. Moreover, anyone could see that Liam’s gaze at Maya wasn’t the pure look a brother would give his sister.

Besides, they’ve been living together these past few days; it’d be odd if nothing happened between them. In fact, Jane Spencer had already suspected on the cruise ship that anything inappropriate between them had happened; she just didn’t expect things could get worse. Seeing Maya like that earlier made her believe that Elia’s words were credible.

"I was just speaking casually, big sis, why are you so mad?" Elia grumbled, pursing his lips. In his heart, he was already secretly delighted, thinking, finally, something’s happening!

"Without evidence, don’t speak carelessly. Is this the first time you’ve made such a mistake?" Jane Spencer said and then got up to leave, unable to eat while looking at this pair of mother and daughter.

Not until the sound of Jane Spencer closing the door was heard did Elia mischievously look at Hannah and say, "Mom! There’s going to be a good show coming!"

Hannah looked at Elia’s smugness, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "You’re getting happy over things that aren’t confirmed yet?"

Then she said, "Even if that little brat really is pregnant, we wouldn’t gain anything out of it. If Liam tells her to abort the child, nothing would remain, as he doesn’t care about the Spencer Family, what is he afraid of? If the child belongs to Kinsley, there might still be some drama."

Hannah’s words were spot on; even if Maya was pregnant, it would only mean the old man would curse her, and what else could happen? She wouldn’t get anything out of it anyway.

"This way, Henry Reid’s impression of her would immediately shatter into pieces," Elia thought excitedly, eager to share this ’good news’ with Henry, unaware that Henry knows even more than he does!

Hannah looked at Elia’s cocky little manner, and rolled her eyes at him with contempt. Because their focus wasn’t even on the same level, her mind and eyes were only on Henry Reid.

Therefore, she said impatiently, "Stop mentioning Henry Reid all the time; your target is Xavier Graham, you need to marry into the Graham Family."

"You go and marry into the Graham Family yourself! I’m not doing it; I’m only marrying Henry Reid."

"You ungrateful brat, you’re not allowed to be involved with Henry Reid anymore, honestly go see Xavier Graham." Hannah commanded furiously, but Elia didn’t take it seriously, put down his utensils, and returned to his room humming a little tune.

Maya is pregnant! Maya is pregnant! Pregnant with her third brother’s child! Hahaha! Is there better news than this?

Inside Maya’s bedroom, she leaned over the sink, looking at herself in the mirror, a bad premonition immediately arose inside her. She had been feeling queasy and like vomiting these days, initially thinking it was due to her aversion to Liam or nausea from alcohol! Motion sickness.

But based on today’s situation, things seem far from simple.

She took a deep breath, realizing she looked pale, so white that she was frightened.

She raised her right hand from the sink and gently felt her stomach, her expression turning exceptionally ugly. She mentally counted, her period was overdue by seven or eight days this month but still hadn’t come.

Thinking about it, Maya was at a loss, wondering, could she really be pregnant? Pregnant with Liam’s child, a child born with a pig’s tail.

Imagining the child’s appearance, her pupils suddenly enlarged, her legs softened, and she collapsed, unable to get up. A wave of nausea surged from within, and she covered her mouth, crawling to the toilet, and vomited messily.

As she vomited, she suddenly cried, her sobbing uncontrollable, her worst fears had come true after all.

After having vomited, she sat cross-legged on the bed, holding her phone, motionless, not knowing who to call.

Should she call Liam? Thinking of his face, she coldly laughed. She still remembered, he said, if she was pregnant, then let it be born, he would take responsibility. She wanted to make that call to him, wanted to tell him she might be pregnant, pregnant with his child.

She wanted to hear his reaction, wanted to hear if he could still speak of responsibility, could still say to let her give birth. But she didn’t call because she thought of his attitude, hearing his voice made her feel sick.

She remembered advising him to buy condoms, to wear them, but he wouldn’t listen, leaving her full of resentment, hating him for being so selfish, only caring about his own pleasure.

Her frustration grew because she had taken medication after each time, yet still ended up pregnant? She felt exhausted, couldn’t figure it out, and didn’t want to think about it.

Thinking there might already be his child inside her, Maya held her breath, desperately rubbing her belly as if wanting to crush that child to death.

In the few hours since realizing she was pregnant, Maya constantly thought about how to kill the child, thinking of ways to make Liam pay his blood debt.

At the same time, she felt panic but couldn’t pinpoint what she was panicking about. Was it because of this child?

She rubbed her belly, lowered her head, and hatefully asked, "Why? Why did you come? Didn’t you know? This isn’t where you should be?"

Though Maya hadn’t officially taken a pregnancy test yet, her gut feeling was spot on; she was most likely pregnant.

Late at night, her room’s door was knocked on, but she pretended to be asleep, not going to open the door.

Outside, she heard Jane Spencer’s voice, "Maya, are you asleep?" Maya still didn’t answer.

"Maya, no matter what happens, don’t worry, address all the issues once Liam returns, okay?"

Maya listened to her big sister’s reassurance, sighed deeply, thinking, everyone must have realized she’s pregnant, right? And surely, they must know whose child it is! She almost accurately imagined Elia’s gloating face.

As expected, early next morning, the sun barely dawned when Elia went out early, heading straight for Henry Reid’s apartment, knocking on his door.
