Chapter 399

---- Chapter 399 Sebastian had thought that he had a sliver of hope if he dragged the pregnant Vivienne along to pressure Renee. It looked like he never stood a chance. At that moment, he went upstairs dejectedly as he could not figure out a solution. Vivienne dashed into Giselle's car without a word. All she did was ask Giselle to start the car. Giselle could tell the outcome from the look on Vivienne's face, but she could not rush into the Holt residence to fight for her bestie. So, she drove off after helping Vivienne buckle her seatbelt.

"How did it go?" she couldn't stop herself from asking when she drove. "you didn't need to ask." Tears brimming, Vivienne managed awry smile. "I sent myself here for humiliation. Oh, well... Let's go to the hospital. I want to get the abortion over as soon as possible." "Are you sure?" "'Stop the fucking nonsense!" Rage surged within Vivienne. "If you hadn't asked that idiot to come to the hospital, I wouldn't have had to face that humiliation ! Send me to the hospital , now! Don't poke your nose into my business!" ---- It hurt Giselle's heart to hear Vivienne's painful outburst.

She had never seen Vivienne in this state in their many years of friendship-one of despair and grief. Vivienne worked a job with decent pay but was relatively stable. She might be vain, but she more often carried herself ina carefree manner. She dated ordinary men in her social circle and never cried over breakups. She lived a free life. But now, her happiness had gradually vanished after dating Sebastian , even though he satisfied her material needs. This was a huge setback in her life for sure. Giselle drove them to the hospital in silence.

Alas, the departments had closed for business as they had arrived after 5:00 pm. They couldn't even get an appointment for the most basic abortion. When they returned to the car, Vivienne slumped in the backseat soullessly. Before she knew it, tears had stained her face. She sobbed quietly, her shoulders trembling. At the sight of Vivienne's pain, Giselle had no idea how to support her. After a few minutes, she calmly advised Vivienne, "Vivi, can you tell me the truth about your feelings for Sebastian? If you're just friends with benefits, you can let go of him and abort the baby.

If you see him as a meal ticket, you could demand a handsome breakup fee-" "Tlove him," Vivienne blurted out the truth between sobs. ---- "You love him?" Vivienne's abrupt and awkward confession stunned Giselle. " Is something wrong with you? What's there to like about that unserious idiot?"
