Yuna had accepted this task and had planned to put on a show.

She hadn't known, however, that Wesley would set a huge trap for her.

What was even more annoying was that Wesley had been sure that she would jump into the trap and even had prepared clothes and daily necessities for her!

Sure enough, she hadn't let Wesley down. Not only had she jumped into his trap, but she'd also been taken away to the wilderness.

Yesterday, Yuna had been more or less unwilling. Her rebellious had nature caused her to cross Wesley, but by the time she woke up, she'd already given in.

Since Wesley wanted to talk to her, they would talk.

However, she still wouldn't be able to be frank with him.

She sat on the sofa opposite Wesley and stared at him. "What do you want to talk to me about?"

Wesley fidgeted with the teacup in his hand and said deliberately, "Tell me first, why were you in hospital? Yuna, I want to know the truth!"

Sure enough, he still remembered this!

Yuna's hand unconsciously recoiled behind the sofa. She felt like her heart was being stabbed and she felt weak.

Fortunately, her professional instinct helped Yuna calm down and recover herself quickly. As if nothing had happened she said, "I was feeling a little poorly, so I went to see a doctor." She tried to change the subject and continued, "Why are you so curious about this?"

Wesley's attention was not diverted at all. He stared at Yuna and asked her, "What's wrong with you?"

His eyes were like daggers, cold and sharp, as if nothing could be hidden from him.

Yuna avoided Wesley's gaze and said, "I'd rather not discuss it."

She didn't even notice that her voice was extremely soft, and that her guilty conscience was being completely exposed to Wesley.

Wesley was surer than ever that this problem wasn't simple.

He got up and walked over to Yuna. "It doesn't matter if you don't want to tell me the truth. The doctor will be willing to tell me. Get up and come with me!"

"So Wesley wants to take me to the hospital?!"

Yuna's palms were sweaty.

If she went to the hospital, not only her pregnancy but also the blood clot in her brain would be outed.

If that happened, it would be even more impossible for Wesley to let her go.

Yuna clenched her fists and sat frozen on the sofa for a long time. Wesley soon grew impatient. He reached out and pulled her up.

"Wesley!" Yuna blurted out, "I'm pregnant!"

In order to hide the fact that she had a blood clot, she had to tell Wesley something, and then she would wait and see what happened next.

"Pregnant?!"

For a moment, Wesley's world shook violently.

Yuna was so close to him, so he couldn't have misheard her. Yuna said that she was pregnant!

In an instant, some images flashed through Wesley's mind.

A week ago, he had seen Yuna in the hospital. She'd put her hand on her lower abdomen, and then she'd taken it away as if nothing had happened. Also, he'd felt that Yuna was trying her best to avoid fighting with him that day.

It turned out that she was pregnant and she'd been afraid of hurting the baby in her belly!

"Yuna is pregnant...

"Him, Rowdy, the baby..."

Wesley's deep eyes widened. He grabbed Yuna's wrist so hard that the blue veins on the back of his hand almost burst out.

Yuna panicked and looked at Wesley in horror. "What are you going to do?"

Wesley pulled Yuna into his arms and stared at her with burning hot eyes. "It is mine!"

"..."

Huh? This wasn't what Yuna had expected.

Even if Wesley suspected that the child was his, he should check that with her. Why was he so sure that the child was his without asking anything?

Yuna had planned on telling Wesley that this child wasn't his as Rowdy had said, so that Wesley would then let her go.

But Wesley had no doubts at all. What should she say next?

Wesley looked at Yuna, and the tension and coldness on his face all faded away. A touch of joy appeared on his handsome face, and a faint smile showed in his eyes.

For the first time, Yuna knew what Wesley looked like when he was happy.

Was he happy that she was pregnant with his child?

Before Yuna could gather her thoughts, Wesley suddenly hugged her closely. His voice full of excitement, he asked, "It was the last time, wasn't it?!"

Yuna was speechless. "Is the point in time important?"

Before she could protest, Wesley kissed her on the lips.

This time, Wesley was extremely gentle. He kissed her gently and slowly, as if he was tasting something delicious.

His breathing was no longer as calm and steady. Each breath seemed to show his joy.

He was usually such a cold and heartless person, but without any sense of surprise or scepticism, he just accepted the arrival of a child! He was ecstatic!

Yuna closed her eyes, as if there were countless sharp knives cutting through her heart.

When Dr. Liu had told her that she was indeed pregnant, she'd also been very happy. Even though she'd learned the next day that this child would pose a threat to her life, she was still very happy that she was pregnant.

She was no longer alone in the world.

However, all her excitement and joy had dissipated after her examination yesterday.

Yuna made up her mind. Just as she was about to push Wesley away, he let go of her. He held her hand in his warm big palm and said, "Let's have this child."

He wanted this child!

However, he didn't know...

Yuna took a deep breath and said calmly. "I didn't say that the child was yours!"

Wesley frowned. Yuna thought he would be angry, but he soon calmed himself, looked at her with a slight smile and said assuredly, "If it weren't for me, how could you get pregnant on your own?"

Why did he still not mention Rowdy?

Yuna had to tell him. "Wesley, do you need me to remind you? When I got pregnant, I was living with Rowdy!"

Wesley sneered, "It can't be Rowdy's child!"

For a moment, Yuna was at a loss for words. Then she asked him, "Why are you so sure?"

"Because..." Wesley looked straight at Yuna and said slowly and deliberately, "Rowdy murdered your grandma!"

Wesley knew Yuna too well.

She knew that Rowdy was her enemy. She would not let Rowdy touch her, let alone get pregnant with his child.

Therefore, there was no need to ask. He was sure that the child was his.

Yuna didn't have time to respond. She just stared at Wesley, eyes wide open.

Sure enough, Wesley had guessed it. He was sure that she knew the truth about her grandmother's death.

What should she do?

Should she admit that it was Wesley's child, that she'd been lying to him, and that she'd returned to Rowdy just to gain revenge?

If she did, it would be even more impossible for Wesley to let her go. Also, she would have to give up chasing the Kent family's secret which she was almost about to uncover, and all her previous efforts would be wasted.

In a panic, Yuna could only pretend that she didn't understand what Wesley was saying. "What are you talking about?"

Wesley abruptly grabbed Yuna's arm. "You know what I'm talking about! You also know that Rowdy is the one who killed Granny Wallace. Yuna, you've always known everything!"

Just like that, Wesley laid the truth out bare, breaking any of Yuna's hopes of giving a plausible explanation.

Yuna was shocked, but she still pretended to be calm. She sneered, "You said that Rowdy was the one who killed my grandma, and that I've always known it. So why would I want to go back to Rowdy? Am I crazy?!"

"You want to go back to take revenge on Rowdy!" Wesley narrowed his eyes. "Do you need me to make it clearer?"

No, what he had said was enough to make Yuna understand that Wesley had seen right through her. Now, here in front of Wesley, she had nowhere to hide.

Wesley had no doubts about the child.

However, no matter whether he doubted it or not, it made no difference.

Wesley loosened his grip on Yuna and asked her, "Do you know how dangerous it is for you to go back to Rowdy and work undercover? I won't let you take risks anymore. Stay here and give birth to our child."

Yuna held back her urge to cry and asked, "Wesley, do you like children?"

As far as she knew, Wesley, who was cold-blooded and cruel, should not like children, should he?

Wesley looked at Yuna and said, "When you said that you were pregnant, I suddenly realised that I like children. Is there a problem?"

"..."

Wesley's every word was like a knife cutting through Yuna's heart. The sharp, long pain spread throughout her body, but Yuna could not cry, let alone show any hint of sadness.

How she wished that the car accident hadn't happened! Then she wouldn't have been injured, and she wouldn't have got a blood clot. Also, neither she nor her child would have had to suffer.

Right now, she'd also be willing to stay and ignore her grudges. She'd also be willing to give up any plans, and her grandmother would definitely have forgiven her.

However, it was too late.

If she stayed, not only would all her previous efforts be wasted, but Wesley would only feel down and worry about her illness.

After a fierce struggle, Yuna looked at Wesley and nodded. "I admit it, the child is yours!"

Wesley raised the corner of his mouth as if he wasn't surprised. "I knew it!"

"But-" Yuna added, "I disagree with what you said."

Wesley's face darkened. "What did I say?"

"I've never thought that Rowdy murdered my grandma. The evidence at the site of the accident was clear. It was you who sent someone to murder my grandma." Yuna said, "Wesley, you shifted the blame onto Rowdy just to let me give birth to this child, right?"

Wesley knew that she wouldn't tell the truth.

In the past, he hadn't wanted to tell the truth because he was angry with Yuna's distrust.

Now, he didn't care. He just wanted Yuna and the child to stay with him.

Even if Yuna didn't want to tell him the truth, it didn't matter because he could reveal it himself. But why was Yuna still unwilling to admit it now?

She didn't need to go back to Kang Ruicheg and take risks, she could stay with him like this. Why didn't she want to admit it? She had known that Rowdy was the murderer.

Also, what did her last sentence mean?

Wesley stared at Yuna sharply and asked, "Don't you want this child?!"
