Even After Death - Chapter 953

Chapter 953

---

Colin’s lips twitched as he looked at the twins beside Olivia.

“You’re telling me … that you’re pregnant again?”

Olivia was a little embarrassed. Connor was the only baby she planned for. She didn’t even have a sex life after that.

The twins were conceived while Ethan had a high fever and was barely conscious. This newest pregnancy was even more ridiculous …

The doctors said it would be hard for her to get pregnant, but she got pregnant both times she had sex.

“I’ve been feeling nauseous. It’s a lot like the morning sickness I used to have. I’m afraid that …”

“Alright, let’s do an ultrasound first. We can do that in this town. But we can’t do a magnetic resonance imaging procedure. Let’s do the ultrasound first to determine if you’re pregnant. The cancer treatment will have to wait until we get to our next stop.”

“Okay. I’ll do whatever you say.”

On the way to their destination, Olivia had a gloomy expression on her face. Back then, everyone told her she should’ve aborted the twins, but she ignored them and gave birth to them.

Her strong desire to keep the babies was because she was afraid she could never get pregnant again. Also, she was down in the dumps from losing her first baby. So, she showered all the love she had on the twins. They were also Ethan’s children.

It was completely different this time. She didn’t have romantic feelings for Logan. She didn’t want another baby at the moment. It was just the wrong time for it.

“Olivia, you don’t want this baby?”

Olivia said hesitantly, “Colin, I don’t know how to explain it, but this pregnancy happened under circumstances out of my control. I hope I’m just overthinking this. I don’t want to be pregnant.”

“Understood. Let’s get you checked first. It might not be a pregnancy. You don’t have to feel pressured yet. Even if you’re pregnant, you can still get a painless abortion performed at a good hospital. It’s really convenient.”

Even though she knew Colin was right, Olivia couldn’t help but feel depressed.

The hospital in the town was a little run-down. Even the room for ultrasound looked desolate.

The white curtains were stained, the walls weren’t painted, and there were even cobwebs in the corners of the room.

“Get on the bed,” a tanned and chubby female doctor ordered emotionlessly.

Olivia lay on the dusty bed. There was a huge cobweb just above her. There was an insect trapped in it and struggling, just like her.

Her shirt was lifted up. An old-fashioned probe was placed on her stomach. Initially, it felt a little cold. As the machine started to whirl into life, Olivia’s heartbeat started to race irregularly.

After she received the results, her limbs became weak, and her face paled. She looked like she was about to fall over.

“What’s the verdict, Liv?” Everly rushed over and took the report from her.

The words on the report were in the island’s local language, which wasn’t widely spoken.

“What’s this language? I can’t read this!”

Olivia licked her parched lips. She studied many languages back when she was living in the Fordham residence. This was one of them.

“I’m pregnant. Six weeks. The fetus has already developed a fetal pole and a heartbeat.”

Everly was shocked. “You’re really pregnant? What do you plan to do, Liv?”

Olivia was in a daze and completely spaced out. She had no idea what she was supposed to do.

“I don’t know. I don’t want the baby. But it’s a life! I’ve seen people close to me die. I don’t want to take the baby’s life away.”

“Then … why don’t you keep it? You’ve already given birth to three of Ethan’s children. One or two more wouldn’t hurt.”

Olivia said reluctantly, “What if … I told you that Ethan isn’t the father?”
