Such a thought is cruel and unfair, but Xia Liyou still allowed herself to think so.
Because even if Ou Chengtian genuinely wanted to, his family would never allow it.
A man like him would, in the end, married a lady of equal status, not her.
How could his family permit him to maintain another woman outside and have a child with her?
Moreover, she wasn't willing, so what's the point?
Ou Chengtian looked into her eyes, having nothing to say.
He strode out of the room, shut the door heavily, and left.
Xia Liyou felt as if she had experienced a battle, collapsing weakly on the bed, her eyes fixated on the box of contraceptive pills for a long time.
Ou Chengtian suppressed the urge to kill someone and walked into his study room.
He felt like a turtle hiding in its shell, staying in his room. He could have told her that he wanted a child, to have a child with her, to be with her.
But those words reached his lips, and he couldn't utter them.
