Chapter 962 I Want to Keep the Baby
Hearing her words, Nicole lowered her eyes and thought, The last time I checked, Whitney had taken away all her
family's money. If anyone were to investigate it, she would end up in prison. After all, Whitney felt guilty around
Douglas and wanted to make up to him by going to prison. Hence, why would she suddenly think it through now?
However, Nicole didn't ask much and just sighed. "Take some time off and relax. Don't overthink and call me if
anything happens. I still have some cash."
Whitney smiled and shook her head. "It's fine, Nicole. I have already paid everything off. Say, I heard you are now a
Wrenn. Is it true?"
"Yeah." Nicole didn't hide the truth from her and said honestly, "I know about it recently. Madeline had switched my

identity with Evelyn when we were young. However, it was also a coincidence that I encountered the Wrenns."
Whitney hummed in response and looked down. After some time, she said, "I'm pregnant, Nicole."
At that moment, Nicole blinked in surprise. She didn't expect Whitney to drop a bomb out of the ordinary. Then, she
frowned and asked, "Douglas'?"
Whitney nodded in response.
Nicole had mixed feelings about this. Douglas has already taken Emily as his wife, and they have Lucy. Doesn't that
make Whitney a mistress?
"Are you keeping it?" she asked softly.
"Yes." Whitney nodded without hesitation. Seeing that Nicole had a complicated look, she smiled and said, "Don't
worry, Nicole. I'm not planning on telling him about this. I will raise this child alone and won't let anyone know."
Nicole grew distressed when she saw the persistent look on Whitney's face. After all, she knew how Whitney felt

toward Douglas. For the past seven years, she couldn't let go of him. Now that she was pregnant with his child, it
was safe to say that Douglas' existence would forever be in her life.
"Have you really thought about it, Whitney?" Nicole questioned.
"Yes, Nicole. I think this is it." As Whitney spoke, she looked down. She couldn't force herself to give up on the child.
"If you give birth to it, you will never be able to get rid of Douglas," Nicole said in a low voice.
"I know, Nicole. I love him. Even if I cannot be with him, I still want to keep the baby. I guess this is how disgraceful I
am." Whitney mocked herself.
Although Nicole had mixed feelings about this, she didn't say anything more and patted her on the shoulder. "You
have to think things through yourself, Whitney. If this is your decision, I will respect it."

"Thank you, Nicole."
…
At Lane Corporation, Douglas had a bitter expression as he gripped the paper tightly. "You are telling me that
Whitney had gone back and paid off all the debts?" he asked grimly.
Seeing that he was furious, the assistant cowered and whispered, "Y-Yes. She paid off everything."
Douglas' expression was icy cold. As he tapped on the table with his fingers, he asked, "Who helped her?" He had
investigated and knew she had some money, but it wasn't enough to pay off the loss of the Campbell Family. Hence,
he was sure that someone must have helped her.
The assistant was hesitant. Looking at him, he mumbled, "It's Miss Phoenix."
In that split second, Douglas thought of Emily and pursed his lips into a thin line. He knew what Emily was doing.
When he was devastated and almost died, she saved him.
Thinking about it, he closed his eyes out of frustration. "I understand. You can leave now."
