Chapter 238: 219, She might be pregnant.

"So, senior, do you want it or not?" Ivy Aretha asked in response, her clear, big eyes staring unblinkingly at him, as if trying to read his thoughts.

Hearing this, Mario Jensen looked at the familiar woman in front of him in confusion, his heart gradually cooling down. So this was how he appeared in her mind, a man who wouldn’t even want his own child.

That’s why she chose Michael Gordon. However, he only felt cold in his heart, the previous faint pain in his heart seemed to disappear, no longer existing!

"How could I not want my own child?" Yet, he subconsciously explained, "Ivy, don’t look at me like that. I am not a man who dares to act but not take responsibility. It’s my fault for being careless about Lina. I will find her!"

When Mario Jensen said those words, his eyes showed sadness and regret, even a hint of rebirth after despair. Ivy Aretha realized how much hurt her simple question had caused him.

But it was good, only if she hurt him thoroughly enough would he be able to truly give up on her, rebirth from the ashes, and cherish those around him.

Ivy Aretha watched Mario Jensen’s retreating figure, feeling a desolate chill and a sense of abandonment settling in her eyes.

It wasn’t until Mario Jensen was about to push open the door to the reception room that Ivy Aretha called out to him, "Senior, Lina is a kind girl. She won’t abandon her own child..."

As for the rest of her words, Mario Jensen already understood without her saying them!

Ivy Aretha watched as the man’s body stiffened while he was about to step out of the lounge, his steps halted. However, he didn’t look back at her. After a moment, he opened his mouth to say "Thank you," and then left through the door.

Soon, only she and Michael Gordon were left in the reception room. The spacious room suddenly fell silent, the melancholy atmosphere lingering. Ivy, who was usually lively, became sentimental.

"Lina is actually quite a good girl. Now that she’s pregnant, I really hope senior can fall in love with her. Then, like our family, they can be together with their child!" Ivy Aretha’s gaze fell on the glass door of the reception room, which no longer had anyone’s reflection. Lost in thought, she asked, "Michael, do you think senior will fall in love with Lina?"

She didn’t know Lina very well, but Lina had always given her the impression of being a peaceful and quiet woman. Although she didn’t talk much, she wasn’t cold. Sometimes, she would just give her a slight smile without even greeting her, which felt much better than those who were constantly chattering and fawning around her.

Ivy Aretha had a strong desire for Lina and Mario Jensen to end up together.

With just one look, Michael Gordon could see the little sadness hidden in Ivy’s thoughts. Even though they hadn’t been together for very long, he could still easily read her inner world. Sometimes it was a look, sometimes a gesture, and sometimes even an incidental smile that could tell him what she wanted, thought, or even felt.

This kind of tacit understanding didn’t seem like a connection between a married couple who had only known each other for half a year, but rather like infatuated lovers who had grown up together, experiencing several lifetimes of sinking and struggling. Perhaps some connections can truly span thousands of years with just one look, and the bond between loving someone isn’t measured by time?

Michael Gordon’s embrace around her petite body tightened, positioning her head against his chest so she could hear his strong, steady heartbeat. Her fragrant hair was pressed under his chin, a nostalgic scent seeping into his senses, taking him back to an unknown moment in his subconsciousness.

Such a familiar scent!

When was it?

As Michael Gordon habitually searched his memory, he was interrupted by her words.

"Michael, I asked you a question. Do you think senior can fall in love with Lina?" Ivy Aretha was now completely absorbed in other people’s stories. The child Lina was carrying was Mario Jensen’s!

They were artist and company boss; could it be that Lina had always been secretly used by Mario Jensen?

And then she accidentally got pregnant?

That’s why she ran away with the baby!

Michael Gordon looked down at her surprised and shocked eyes, instantly understanding what she was thinking. He chuckled and immediately answered her, "Don’t think too highly of your charm. Do you still think Mario Jensen is still hung up on you? Just looking at your senior’s state today, anyone with a mind can tell that the woman has already occupied an important place in his heart. In fact, I’ve seen it for a long time. It’s just that people in the situation are often blinded, and Mario Jensen was too obsessed to notice his true heart. Now that she’s gone and his heart is empty, he naturally knows whose presence truly filled his heart."

Seeing Ivy Aretha half-understandingly looking at him, Michael Gordon paused before continuing, "You were just his obsession from his youth, to put it bluntly, an unfulfilled dream from his childhood. He didn’t realize that as people grow up, their dreams change. How could this obsession from childhood compare to someone who has been by his side, through thick and thin for many years?"

Over the years, Lina had always supported him in her own way to expand his business territory, rebuild the glory of the Jensen family. The once-popular actress quietly left her original company when Mario Jensen announced he would enter the entertainment industry, taking over Jensen’s Entertainment Department without any demands.

An actress who was once in her prime and had the highest value, suddenly shouldering the entire company. Without an assistant, she even served as an assistant to directors and screenwriters. Michael had witnessed it himself at the same filming location.

Because of this, he had a deep impression of her. Looking at the actresses in Allure International, who were pampered and had countless assistants, it was no exaggeration to have a few more assistants. After all, his company had the strength and capacity.

Yet, such a humble and adaptable actress still left him impressed. At least in terms of character, he approved of her. Therefore, he had extended an olive branch to her several times, hoping she would join Allure International, but she had politely declined each time.

At the time, he had been disappointed for a while. He was used to getting whatever he wanted and had many actresses waiting to join Allure International. He chose whether to accept or not, but being refused was a first for him. It was the first time he felt like he had lost face.

Only today did he realize that it was only natural for him to lose. No matter how powerful he was and how many things he was capable of, he couldn’t make a woman who loved her man so deeply abandon him!

He didn’t lose to Mario Jensen; he lost to love!

Fortunately, he now had her, and he had won her back inadvertently!
