Chapter: 1048

With a frown, Nikolas watched for three minutes, stopping only when they headed upstairs.

He couldn't grasp what Jonathan intended him to hear.

Was it merely idle conversation?

Nikolas stood, splashed his face with cold water in the bathroom, and then sent a voice message to Jonathan.

“What are you getting at? I don't see the point."

After a while, Jonathan replied, “Pay attention to the part where Aimee offers to help Bethany with her Luggage."

Nikolas was puzzled. “What about it?"

He replayed the video and listened intently.

What did Bethany imply by telling Aimee to be careful? What did Aimee mean by saying she didn't intend to keep it?

Suddenly, Nikolas had an epiphany.

He quickly scrubbed back to the part of the video, his hand shaking as he adjusted the slider to Aimee's words.

She had said, "Don't worry. I don't plan on keeping it anyway.”

What didn't Aimee plan to keep?

This answer was way too obvious!

He really didn't use protection with Aimee, and he even deliberately intended to get her pregnant as soon as possible. He even pulled her to lie on the bed after sex till she was anxious before he let her take a shower.

Hence, it was normal for her to be pregnant!

But if Aimee meant she was pregnant, then she... She said she didn't plan to keep it anyway.

Wait, Aimee was going for an abortion!

Nikolas’ mind spun in a frenzy.

Grabbing his car keys, he bolted out the door, his thoughts a tangled mess of fear and desperation. He had to find Aimee, and he had no idea where to start. Should he go to her place?

He dialed Aimee's number, but her phone was switched off.

Panic clawed at him. He borrowed a phone from a passerby and tried calling again, but the result was the same - Aimee's phone stayed off.

It seemed she had changed her phone number.

He felt a crushing weight on his chest, his hand gripping it as if to steady his racing heart. His face turned pale.
