Chapter 400

---- Chapter 400 Sobbing quietly , Vivienne mumbled , "I didn't have feelings for him when we first met. He was not my type at all, not to mention I hated his spoiled kid behavior. I only slept with him because I wanted to get some money off that rich idiot. "As time passed, I realized that he might look like a roguish playboy, but he's a simple and honest man deep within. He's good to me-no matter how angry Iam at him, he'll cheer me up with a grin. I tested him by asking for more money, but he gave me however much I wanted without feeling annoyed. "You know my relationship history.

I've never met a man who's so loyal to me. Besides , he's so rich-richer than any man I've dated. "Slowly, I took to him. I can't leave him or stand him getting in touch with other women. I even dreamed of marrying him. "T'll admit -I got pregnant partly on purpose. I knew the so- called 'safe period' wasn't always safe, but I still didn't use protection. I just never thought I'd actually end up pregnant. "T fretted for days and nights after finding out. I had wanted to tell Sebastian , but I worried that we'd never get married. Renee is a capable woman, after all.

He and I are not from the same world at all... "Twas so depressed, conflicted, and in pain over those few days. So, I provoked him and got into a huge fight to force myself to get the abortion. It's better to rip off the band-aid ---- quickly, right? "Tnever thought he'd rush to the hospital and suggest marriage. I was swayed again. I know I'm an ordinary and materialistic woman who can't resist the temptation of money. Poverty will make you do that..." Giselle listened in silence. Never had she imagined that chemistry would develop between the two carefree souls.

Taking a deep breath, she asked, "What's your plan now? I'd suggest you forget about marriage. I know Renee better than anyone else. I don't want you to get into trouble." Vivienne shook her head. "I gave up on the idea after the humiliation today. I'm still on the fence about the baby, though. The idea of removing it on the operating table hurts me. I never thought I'd be a hopeless lovefool one day! Ugh! How I wanted to slap myself!" "Give it a few weeks more before you come to a decision." Giselle had wanted to tell Vivienne to get the abortion.

However , on second thought , she knew she had no right to make such a huge decision for Vivienne despite their friendship. Since they couldn't get the abortion today, she drove Vivienne home and kept her company until late at night. She comforted Vivienne before leaving with a heavy heart. Back at home, Donovan still hadn't returned from his social event. Giselle washed up and leaned against the headboard. She tried to sleep, but it proved to be in vain. ---- Right then, the puppy, Kali, jumped onto the bed and snuggled against her.

Under her excellent care, the puppy grew fast and boasted a shiny coat of fur. It was healthy and obviously growing bigger. While petting Kali, Giselle thought of Gideon -the man who sent Kali to her. Kali was Chipper's pup. The thread of fate made it hard for her to forget about Gideon. She believed he might have moved on. Ever since he caused a drunken ruckus at the villa, he had stopped reaching out to her. Rumors had it that he recently went to Asteria. Giselle shook away the messy thoughts and closed her eyes. She forced herself to empty her mind and fall asleep as soon as possible.
