Chapter 209 Chase, Don't You Have a Mother?

• The helicopter had left the island far behind. Apart from Samuel and the pilot in the front, only Jessie and Chase remained in the rear cabin.
• Without others around, Chase reverted to the gentle president he always seemed to be. He gazed down at her tears, cupping her face in his hands. Then he gently wiped away her tears with his thumb. His voice was calm, almost as if he were discussing something trivial. Chase said, "Without me, where would you have gotten a child? This child was an accident. He shouldn't have appeared, and he certainly shouldn't have been born. Jessie, I'm doing this for your sake. Please, just go through with the abortion. We were fine without a child before, weren't we? Keeping this child will only bring us misfortune."
• Each word Chase spoke landed in Jessie's ears like a thunderclap. Her tears flowed even more fiercely, and her body was shaking violently. There was no sound to her crying; only cold tears fell from her eyes.
