Chapter 1296 - Chapter 1296 Chapter 1299 Always Subconsciously Protecting

Chapter 1296: Chapter 1299: Always Subconsciously Protecting the Belly Chapter 1296: Chapter 1299: Always Subconsciously Protecting the Belly The heavy bedroom door was pushed open from the outside.

Aidan Lucas heard the sound and suddenly awoke.

“Ah–” When Lily pushed the door open, the room was pitch black.

She had thought that Aidan hadn’t come back.

But when she turned on the light, she bumped right into a pair of cold and chilling eyes.

“You, why aren’t you turning on the lights in the bedroom, you scared me…” Lily involuntarily stepped back, leaning against the wall, her right hand subconsciously caressing her abdomen.

Aidan Lucas’s sharp, icy eyes glanced slightly, squinting and rubbing his brow, “Sorry, I scared you. I was asleep just now…”

“It’s only just gotten dark not long ago…” Lily muttered, looking at him.

Seeing Aidan’s black hair in disarray and showing signs of exhaustion, she instantly forgot the panic she had felt earlier.

She moved closer, sat on the edge of the bed, and reached out to touch his forehead, “What’s wrong, are you feeling uncomfortable?”

The woman’s delicate and smooth hand gently touched his forehead, as if filled with magic, easily taking away all the pain and unease from the nightmare he just had.

“Lily…” Aidan suddenly grabbed Lily’s hand, pulling her into his arms.

Caught off-guard, Lily bumped into the man’s solid and broad chest.

“Aidan Lucas, what’s wrong? Are you really feeling unwell?” Lily was held tightly by him, but she didn’t dare to struggle too hard.

She… she still had a child in her belly, and moving too violently she feared might harm the child.

Indeed, in the end, Lily still couldn’t harden her heart.

She couldn’t bring herself to kill her own baby without preparation.

She… she needed psychological preparation.

Thus, Lily hastily left, telling Jacob she would find another time to get the abortion done.

The little life whose fate was uncertain remained in her belly.

Lily’s concerned questions did not receive an answer from the man; he just held her, burying his head deeply in her thick black hair.

Inhaling greedily, savoring her sweet scent.

“Be good, don’t move… let me hold you.”

His voice was hoarse and deep, causing Lily to feel almost as if she was trembling.

His arms around Lily’s back and waist slowly tightened, as if trying to meld Lily into his embrace bit by bit.

Fortunately, Lily’s current position, half-kneeling on the bed, meant that even if he held her tighter, the pressure would be on her chest.

Her abdomen remained unpressured, so it would not be squeezed.

Although she had decided, no matter what, to abort the child.

But Lily would still subconsciously protect this child.

Lily faintly sensed that, tonight, Aidan was somewhat different.

He seemed very uneasy, and perhaps harboring some anxieties that even he himself was unaware of.

However, Lily was preoccupied with her own concerns at the moment.

On one hand, her mind was constantly engaged in fierce ideological struggles.

On the other hand, she was afraid that Aidan or anyone else would find out about the existence of this child.

And so, they held each other, each lost in their own thoughts.

…

After what felt like an eternity, Aidan suddenly heard the woman’s steady breathing coming from his embrace.

He looked down at her, and she had fallen asleep.

The large hand resting on the woman’s shoulder slowly moved up along her slender neck, caressing her tranquil sleeping face.

The palm gently stroked, the tender and warm touch feeling comforting and secure.

The panic brought on by the missing memories he had seen in his dream seemed to vanish in an instant.

Even if he saw Lily with another personality, even if he saw them kissing, being intimate, Aidan was no longer scared.

Because right now, at this moment, Lily was in his arms.
