“Bri Brian?” Valda Theller was surprised.

Brian withdrew his hand calmly and straightened up. “I woke you up. You can stay in this room and use everything in the mansion. If you need anything else, you can tell the two bodyguards. They’ll do the shopping for you.”

“But I can never leave the mansion, right?” she asked.

His gaze fell darkly on her face.” Yes.”

She bit her lip slightly and lifted the thin blanket before getting out of bed. “I think we need to talk. Can we talk?”

He was silent for a moment before moving to the couch and sitting nonchalantly. “Okay, tell me what you want to talk to me about.”

Valda Theller took a deep breath and said, “First of all, we’ve broken up. Second, it’ll be unfortunate for the baby to be born if I’m really pregnant.” “How can our child be unfortunate?” he asked.

“Do you think they can be happy growing up in an unhappy family?” she retorted.

“Do you think our family will be unhappy if we get married?” He stared at her with a gaze that was imperceptibly pressuring.

Valda Theller chuckled bitterly. “If we get married and I still love you, my love might be twisted by jealousy over the years and become hatred. The child will be affected by my hatred. If I stop loving you, we’ll only treat each other like strangers. Our marriage will only be a shell. Will our child be happy in an indifferent family?”

He frowned. Valda Theller saying she would stop loving him irritated him.

“Do you think you’ll be able to stop loving me?” he asked coldly.

She had no idea. Perhaps she could not. After all, how could she fall in love again after falling for a man like him? Meeting his eyes, she did not want to admit it. “Yes, I can do it. If I can love you, I can stop loving you too.”

His expression turned ghastly before he got up and walked up to her, his height making the pressure all the more intense.

“Valda Theller, you can’t do it!”

“You’re not me. How do you know I can’t do it?” Valda Theller said defiantly.

“Because I’ll only make you love me more,” he said before suddenly bending over and kissing her lips heavily.

The kiss was domineering and forceful, not allowing her to reject him.

She tried to push him away, but he pressed her hands behind her back so that her body had no choice but to press closer to him and accept the kiss.

The kiss reminded her of the night he had gotten drunk. He was also this forceful, not allowing her to refuse.

If she had gotten away that night, would they not have been entangled with each other like this?

However, she could not help longing for his touch and half-willingly spent the night with him.

She was furious at his forcefulness but more furious at herself for submitting without putting up a fight.

Even then, she still loved him!

Her tears ran down her cheeks and fell on her lips as well as Brian’s. The slightly salty taste made him freeze and stop the kiss.

She… was crying!

Brian suddenly felt helpless. He raised his hand and wiped away the tears on her face. “Don’t cry. I won’t force you like this anymore!”

However, his words made her cry even harder. “Booohoo… Brian, you don’t keep your word. You said we could break up any time I wanted, but look at what y-you’re doing now!”

“I just…” He paused.

Just what? I just don’t want to break up with her and become strangers?’

When he told her she could decide when they broke up, he had no idea he would be reluctant one day.

She sobbed. “Just what? Do you think I’m a pushover? Brian… I… I love you, but so what? I… I have the right to choose. I can choose what path I want to take in the future, what kind of life I want to lead, and whether I want to have children! You… You have no right to choose for me!”

She stammered as she sobbed. Her every word was like a sharp needle stabbing at Brian.

“I’m sorry, Valda. I’m sorry…” He held her in his arms like a treasure he did not want to let go of. “I just don’t want us to end like this. Give me one more chance, okay? You said you would make me fall for you.”

There was no way she could do it! She was silent. When he left the comic fiesta without looking back, she knew she did not stand a chance.

He loved Grace so much that his fondness for her was nothing in front of that love.

Valda Theller had no idea how long she cried. She fell asleep when she was exhausted from crying. When she woke up the next day, Brian was already gone, and the two female bodyguards were looking at her.

Valda Theller sighed. It seemed Brian had not changed his mind. If she was really pregnant, everything would be a mess.

Even with the morning-after pill, it was too late. Valda Theller could only go with the flow.

After turning on her laptop, she started working.

In the hospital ward, Brian sat in a chair while the three members of the Theller family stood in front of Brian. On either side of the three were several burly men.

Brian looked through the information in his hand, and his handsome face was full of indifference.

The three members of the Theller family looked uneasy and afraid. Especially Wynne, who was even trembling.

“Speaking of which, you’ve raised Valda, but I never came to visit you. I didn’t expect my first visit to be in the hospital,” said Brian as he looked at Ferris in a hospital gown.

“I heard you’re seriously ill and need a lot of money for an operation. What you have on your medical record is a serious illness. In this case, I’ll call some specialists and have them perform an operation to cure you of your illness,” Brian said nonchalantly.

The Theller family instantly turned pale at this.

Ferris was not seriously ill. They falsified it by colluding with the doctor.

They would be in trouble if they had a real operation. “Uhh… No thanks, Mr. Hart,” said Ferris.

Brian said indifferently, “It’s no trouble. It’s just that I don’t know whether you can get off the operating table with such a serious illness, Mr. Zhong.”

Ferris ‘s legs instantly gave way, and he slumped down to the floor when he said that.

Rowena Santiago and Wynne even trembled.

“Take Mr. Zhong to the operating room,” Brian ordered his men.

Two burly men approached Ferris to pull him up.

Ferris suddenly said, “Mr. Hart, I… I’m not sick. It’s a fake illness. These two told me to fake it to get Valda to give us money!”

“Oh? Is that so?” Brian’s eyes turned to look at Rowena Santiago and Wynne.

They looked frightened. “Ferris said Valda’s rich. He said she’s a member of the Theller family, so she should give the Theller family money to spend!” Rowena Santiago said quickly.

“I… I said that, but… but it wasn’t my idea to fake an illness!” Ferris was quick to plead his innocence.

“If it isn’t because you’re useless and not making much money, would we need to do this? You can’t even afford to buy your son a house.”

“Didn’t you and our son spend all the money? My younger brother and sister-in-law left behind a large inheritance, but you spent all of it. No matter how much money I make, it’ll never be enough for you!”

“You gave me the money. You said we couldn’t let your niece take advantage of it and that she would become someone else’s wife in the future. You also said your son is the foundation of the **

Theller family…” The couple began to go over their debts with each other.

Brian’s gaze fell on Wynne, the person responsible for the comic fiesta chaos that day.

“Tell me, why did you go to the comic fiesta the other day and make a scene like that?” Brian asked Wynne coldly.

Wynne winched. “I only wanted to ask Valda for some money. I… I didn’t expect it to cause such a commotion.”

“You didn’t expect it?” Brian sneered. “Did you not think you would have an extra three million dollars in your bank account too?”

Hearing this, Wynne immediately turned pale and knelt on the floor while Rowena Santiago and Ferris froze.

Neither expected their son to suddenly have an extra three million dollars in his bank account.
