Chapter 4

I went out to the garden for some air, only to be dragged down by Cora.

"How dare you treat me like this? I'm carrying Finn's child."

She sat on the swing, looking down at me provocatively. "I had a friend rush the report; I'll tell you first." "The child could be anyone's but definitely not Finn's."

Hearing the known truth again pierced my heart. My eyes reddened, glaring at her. "The child I'm carrying is definitely Finn's! If he knew, he wouldn't spare you."

Cora laughed, crushing my face. "They're betting on whose child it is in your belly. The loser has to buy me a villa." "Turns out the child isn’t theirs but someone else's."

I wanted to argue, but Jude walked over and pinched Cora's waist. In my shocked gaze, he picked her up onto the swing, kissing her deeply.

"To tell you the truth, when it was my turn, I found a beggar."

"Even a beggar can be with you. If not a bus, then what?" "Who knows whose child is in your belly!"

While I was stunned, Jude kicked me, and two voices shouted simultaneously.

Cora fell off the swing, and I looked on, confused. Finn had returned at some point, rushing to her side to help her up. "Are you okay? How could you be so careless?"

Cora tearfully accused me. "Nora tampered with the swing, causing me to fall."

"Yes, and she also said the child is a bastard, isn't that insulting you?" Jude quickly added. "Do you dare claim this child is yours?" I glared at Finn, eyes red.

Feeling guilty under my gaze, he stammered, "It's not mine! Then whose is it?"

"This isn't an excuse for you to hurt Cora!"
