Chapter 3 – A Bastard

• After hearing that, Christopher's face did not have any joy. On the contrary, he felt more and more embarrassed.
• The doctors and nurses who examined Leslie all kept their heads down, trying not to offend Christopher.
• Leslie looked at Christopher's response. She felt somewhere in her heart was throbbing with pain.
• The nurses around felt sympathy for Leslie, but they hung their heads as if they were invisible.
• Yet there was much more to it than that.
• In front of everyone in the ward, Christopher said in a mocking tone, "Leslie, you are so disgusting. How dare you plant your guilt on me after sleeping with another man? "
• Leslie was stunned. She never thought that he would question her innocence in public.
• Did he not know that she was also a human being, who also would feel sad?
• The eyes of the people around shifted suddenly. The nurse, who was sympathetic to her before, changed her face to one of contempt immediately.
• "Yes, how could such a perfect person like him assault a woman for no reason?"
• "Yes, I think this woman is a bitch. She slept with another man and then she was caught by him.
• Leslie covered her ears with both hands, but the unkind words continued to come into her ears.
• She was not a bad woman and she did not cheat anyone. She did nothing wrong. Seeing Leslie's misery, Christopher's heart had an indescribable pleasure.
• He forced her to take the pill after making love with him every time. How could she be pregnant now? This baby can't be his.
• Christopher's indifference finally made Leslie's anger outbreak.
• She shouted at Christopher, "Christopher Loomis, that's enough. You know I didn't sleep with any man besides you. You know that the baby is yours."
• Leslie's voice came to an abrupt end with a loud slap.
• Everyone was confused. The nurses around were all shocked and even kept opening their mouths.
• Christopher snorted without any emotion. He looked at Leslie with a cold face, "Enough? You have no right to say that. Even the words from a real prostitute are more convincing than you!"
• Leslie put her hands over his face and said dumbly, "In your eyes, I'm worse than a prostitute?"
• Christopher said angrily in front of everyone without any concession, "Because a prostitute only needs other people's money. While you, want other people's lives in addition to their money! You are worse than a cheap prostitute in my eyes!"
• He grabbed Leslie's hand and pulled her towards the doctor, "Give me the DNA test immediately. I want to test whether the child is mine or not."
• His words made Leslie more painful. Why couldn't he trust her?
• The doctor advised, "Mr. Loomis, your wife's health is really not good. And that baby's fetal position is still not stable. If we rashly go for amniocentesis now, I am afraid that this baby may not live to see the earth."
• Christopher curled his lips and said in a cruel and mocking way, "That's good. This bastard is originally unfit to be born."
