Wendy walked up to him and smiled at him. “How could I possibly leave you alone in a situation like
this?
Chris looked into her sincere eyes and suddenly felt guilty. He turned away and did not dare to look at
her again. He secretly regretted the absurd things he had done. However, what could he do now?
Things had come to this point. He had no choice but to keep it a secret. Wendy did not fail to notice his
evasive eyes, but she said nothing and smiled. Then, she looked at Mrs. Cohen and Guinevere with a
polite face.
As a woman, she would deal with the other women.
“Gwen, did you feel uncomfortable living here? No matter what, our family has neglected you and didn’t
pay enough attention to your emotions. Just let us know your conditions. If we can meet it, we’ll satisfy
your demands.” Hearing that, Mrs. Cohen frowned in anger. “What do you mean? Are you going to
chase us out with a little benefit like this?!”
Mrs. Cohan complained, “We worked hard to raise our daughter. We don’t expect you to treat her like a
princess, but that doesn’t mean you can hurt her! We’re just asking for an explanation now. We’re not
asking for compensation! What did you do to force her into this state?”
“What…” Wendy felt troubled. She turned to Guinevere and said sincerely, “Gwen, let us know if we’ve
done something wrong. We really don’t quite understand why you suddenly became emotionally
unstable.”
Wendy looked sincere and admitted her negligence immediately. “I should’ve seen this coming Women
are naturally more sensitive during postpartum. I paid too much attention to Zack and neglected you
while Weston has been busy with work lately. I’m sorry…”
Wendy walked to Guinevere and held her hand kindly, but Guinevere subconsciously tried to retract her
hand.
Guinevere gave it a thought and knew she was going to live with Wendy for the rest of her life. She
would not go home with her parents. Therefore, she held back and relented. She did not resist Wendy
and said in a docile manner, “I understand…” “We’ve gotten along well, so you can talk to me about
anything.” Wendy treated Guinevere gently like her own daughter. Mrs. Cohen’s mood eased a little
after seeing that Guinevere seemed to be on good terms with Wendy. “Anyway, we didn’t send our
daughter here to suffer. She got pregnant out of wedlock and gave birth to a child. We’re already very
upset about this…” Mrs. Cohen emphasized, “If Gwen hadn’t insisted on marrying Weston, we wouldn’t
have agreed with this.”
Mrs. Cohen would rather force Guinevere into an abortion. She would not allow her to be so cheap.
Getting pregnant out of wedlock was a disgrace in both ordinary and prestigious families. Sure enough,
they could cover up this matter with the power of their families. However, they still did not get married
after the child was born. The news would get out one day. If this became a scandal in high society, it
would affect both families adversely.
People would know that Weston reneged on his promise. They would know that Guinevere tried to
marry Weston with her child, but he refused.
As time went on this would obviously hurt Guinevere’s reputation more. Perhaps, she might have to live
with the scandal for the rest of her life. People would say that Guinevere came to Weston with a child,
but Weston did not want them.
This would become the Cohen family’s disgrace. How could they maintain their pride in the circle then?
