Flora's POV:
Sylvia's words startled me. "I never even think of aborting it!" The words spilled out of my mouth before I could control myself.
I wrapped my hand over my stomach to prevent my baby from hearing these terrible words.
"Sorry, I misunderstood you." Sylvia nodded apologetically. "Since you don't want to abort the baby, why don't you tell Warren about it? He is the father of the child. He deserves to know that you're pregnant with his child."
I sighed helplessly. "If Warren knows it, he will definitely marry me. But I don't want him to marry me because he feels responsible for me and the child. I only want a relationship that's bound by mutual love and care."
Sylvia cast a quizzical look at me. "I think Warren likes you. We all see the way he looks at you and behaves around you. It's obvious he is interested in you."
"How is that possible?" I murmured. I knew Warren cared about me only because of guilt and he simply regarded me as his responsibility.
"Why not? The way he looks at you and behaves around you shows that he likes you a lot. Don't you like him?" Sylvia raised her eyebrows and looked at me.
For a moment, I didn't know how to answer
Sylvia's question.
'Do I not like Warren?' It didn't seem to be true, but I couldn't describe my feelings.
I knew how well Warren had been treating me all these days.
But I couldn't figure out what I felt for Warren, and I had no idea what was going on in his mind either.
Besides, the thought of his relationship with Alina irked me.
Bile rose in my throat. I blinked to erase the image of her that flashed in my mind.
"What's wrong? You can tell me anything. You know that, right?" My hesitation seemed to make Sylvia anxious. "Pregnancy is not a small matter. Telling Warren the truth seems like the only solution to the problem."
"But I don't want..."
"Stop, stop. Enough! In fact, there's another secret that I haven't told you," I said sheepishly.
Sylvia's brows shot up. She eyed me with curiosity. "What secret?"
I felt a little embarrassed to say it out loud.
"Well... I once had a secret crush on Warren before we came to the capital city, so I was actually willing to have sex with him back then in the equipment room."
Sylvia looked skeptical. However, her eyes seemed to light up. "Really?"
"Yes. But now, I'm not sure whether I like him or not. Maybe I have changed my mind," I shrugged casually.
"Why?" "Because I think Warren is a scum. He isn't trustworthy!" Alina's face emerged in my mind again when I said that, and a wave of anger consumed me.
