Chapter 238: Chapter 240: She’s Pregnant with the Benington Family’s Child

No matter what, Joanna and I have already broken up, and we can’t possibly reconcile. Annie has made many sacrifices for me, and I will take responsibility for her and marry her."

"What did you say?!" Mrs. Benington couldn’t believe what she just heard.

David took a deep breath and said, "I said I would be responsible for Annie."

"You bastard, how could I have given birth to such a bastard son!"

Mrs. Benington couldn’t hold back her anger, rushed forward, and slapped David on the face, "Joanna is such a good girl, and you don’t know how to cherish her. You actually did something so outrageous to hurt her. Today, I must teach you a lesson and let you know what is right and what is wrong!"

As she said this, she raised her hand again.

"Madam White, don’t hit David!"

Annie Lawrence cried and grabbed Mrs. Benington’s hand, broke free from David’s arms, stood in front of him, and cried, "David did nothing wrong, it was me who deliberately seduced him. I was the shameless one, the one without conscience, the one who couldn’t control my heart and fell in love with him."

"He’s a normal man, he just couldn’t resist the proactive temptation of a woman."

"I’m the one who forced him to break up with Joanna, all these things were done by me alone. If you want to hit someone, hit me, and don’t hit David anymore."

Mrs. Benington was at the peak of her anger.

Listening to Annie’s words and her sudden intervention, her anger grew, and her hands and feet were trembling.

"Alright, you siren!"

She pinched Annie’s wrist and raised her hand to hit her in the face, "You shameless woman, give me back my daughter-in-law. You seduced your own sister’s man, causing me to lose such a good daughter-in-law as Joanna. Give her back to me, give her back!"

"Mom, you can’t hit Annie."

David’s face changed, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop his mother just before her slap landed on Annie.

"Get out of my way, and let me kill that shameless siren!"

The more David tried to stop her, the angrier Mrs. Benington became, and she tried to push him aside.

David stood firm in front of Annie, not allowing his mother to hurt her even a little.

"Mom."

He pursed his lips tightly in restraint, and after a few seconds of silence, he said to the still-emotional Mrs. Benington, "Annie is pregnant. She is carrying our Benington family’s child; you can’t hurt her."

"What? What did you say?!" Mrs. Benington froze, her eyes filled with astonishment.

David closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and repeated what he had just said, "Annie is pregnant, and there’s your grandchild in her belly."

"She’s carrying my grandchild?"

This sentence was like a bomb thrown into a lake, completely stunning Mrs. Benington.

"Madam White, the baby is just two months old. I went for a checkup a few days ago, and it’s a very healthy baby." Seeing the astonishment on Mrs. Benington’s face, Annie slowly emerged from behind David.

A trace of triumph flashed in her eyes, but her face showed a gentle and submissive expression, biting her lip as she choked, "Because of this baby, David and I decided to get married early. Madam White, you also don’t want your future grandchild to be born without a complete family."

"Madam White, I really love David. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have gotten pregnant with his child during the prime of my career. Having this baby has a significant impact on my career as well. So, I hope you can fulfill our wish."

David put his arm around Annie and pulled her close. Thinking of how she had just taken all the blame on herself to protect him, he couldn’t help but feel moved.
