Let's Get Married Chapter 294: Do You Want a Child

The light in the bathroom is not as bright as outside. Refusing to believe the result she got just now, Lily
takes out a test stick to have another check. When she sees the same result, she almost falls down
from the toilet with cold sweats falling down from her forehead. She struggles to put the pants on with
all her strength. When she stands up, she suddenly falls back onto the toilet again as there is no
strength left in her body.

She subconsciously puts her left hand on her lower abdomen. Although it is very flat, it is now bearing
a little baby inside.

It’s awesome. At the same time, she has an inexplicable feeling, as if she and the baby are connected
by some intangible magic and that her breath is carrying the breath of baby. Only mothers can
understand such a special and fantastic feeling.

When did it come into being?

Lily didn’t know that she has been pregnant for several months. She tries to recall that her menstrual
periods came regularly every month and had seldom been delayed. Although there was a delay, it was
just several days later than the regular period. Rex always wore condom when had sex with her. She
thinks about it carefully, and then recalls that last time in the hospital, as he was very tired and she
herself was under great stress, they were desperate for seeking solace from each other and had an
extremely enjoyable sex, during which they forgot to take any contraception methods. Later on, they
were all busy with the case so she forgot to take pills.

It has been more than a month since the last sex, and her period hasn’t come this month.

Lily doesn’t know whether to laugh or cry – she hasn’t expected such a coincidence.

She is bearing the child of Rex.



Her mind completely goes blank. Various kinds of turbulent thoughts fill her mind, making her unable to
think. Actually, to ensure whether she is pregnant or not, what she needs to do now is to have a check
in the hospital; after all, there might be some mistakes on the result of the test stick. However, at this
time, it’s obviously impossible.

As long as she goes to the hospital, Rex will definitely know that she is pregnant. She can’t take this
kind of risk because she dares not to trust him anymore.

What will he do if she knows that she is bearing his baby?

They haven’t married each other, so she is not his legal wife and what they did before were nothing
more than dating. Now she is a suspected murderer, it is possible that he may require her to have an
abortion; otherwise, things would get messier.

Thinking of this, Lily feels so chilly and depressed with her hand stroking her soft belly.

She can just keep it secret. Since she has got the result from the test sticks, plus her morning sickness,
she is probably pregnant. She must accept this result and believe it.

She loves Rex. So when she learned that she is bearing his child, she was shocked yet overjoyed that
she almost cried out. Although she is unwilling to admit this and pretends in front of others, she can’t
convince herself.

Such contradictory and helpless feeling almost drives her crazy. Thinking about these Lily even
becomes breathless; she can't imagine how he would react if he is informed of her pregnancy.

Would he pick her up, spin her, kiss her forehead and say ‘Wow, we finally have our baby’? Or would
he give her a cold shoulder and say ‘It comes at an inopportune time.”

Will he feel delighted that he is going to be a father?



Lily’s eyes get red when imaging such a happy scene, but in the next second, she shakes her head,
thinking, “No… He…will not feel delighted.”

Even she herself is clear that the baby comes untimely, let alone Rex. He is always rational and
thoughtful. Considering her current situation, it is inappropriate to bear a child.

Should she have an abortion?

This thought gives her a wave of contractions. Although it is just an embryo in her belly, it is really a
baby. It makes her heartbroken when thinking of killing it.

She likes it and wants to keeps it, but she can’t do it! What a tragedy!

Lily finally fails to hold back the tears in her eyes. Fearing that she would cry out, she quickly pulls a
stack of paper to cover her mouth, and tightly grit her teeth to hold back the groans. But she is
trembling.

She gently puts her hand on her belly and tries hard to hold back the groans, and thinks to herself, “My
dear baby, please give mommy some time. Just some more time…”

Rex has recently been busy with Lily’s lawsuit while worrying about her who is now detained in the
police office. As the case is about to come to trial, she will have to be transferred to the detention
center in the suburbs. In order to evade the reporters, they specially choose to send her over at night.

Worrying about Lily, Rex also comes over. He sets off to the police station after carefully studying the
documents of the case again, and has a short rest on the way there. The driver keeps stealing glances
at him from the rearview mirror. When he sees him leaning against the window, a trace of sourness
emerges in his heart.



Along the way, the driver drives very smoothly. When the car stops in front of the police station, he
reminds Rex in a gentle voice, "Mr. Rex, here it is."

Rex immediately opens his eyes when hearing his reminder. His deep-set eyes are bloodshot with an
expression that shows he is exhausted to the extreme.

Without saying a word, he pulls open the door and strides towards the police office. There are obvious
worries embodied in his paces. It is easy to see from them that he is worrying about the woman inside.

The driver quietly looks at the prison transporter vehicle in the courtyard. It is quite different from
ordinary cars – there is a layer of impregnable iron net on the table, which gives people a sense of
solemnity. He sighed in heart, “I hope this case would come to a good end. God, please stop torturing
this poor couple!”

When Rex enters the interrogation room, Lily has already changed her clothes as she must wear the
prison uniform according to the rules of the detention center. Luckily, she was given some respect that
they didn’t handcuff her.

Rex glances at the prison uniform and can’t bear to see it anymore. He steps forward and pulls her into
his arms, “Just bear it for some more days.”

Although Lily can feel his warm embrace, her body is still cold. She nestles against his chest like a
lifeless wooden stake.

“Mr. Rex, Miss Lily, it’s late. Let’s get in the car.” A police officer, who stands behind them, kindly
reminds them. The police chief is also waiting outside as this case is important. What’s more, it also
involves Rex. Therefore, all parties attach great importance to it and any tiny error is not allowed.

Followed by Rex, Lily walks out of the police station. This is the first time she has breathed in the air
from the outside world since she was arrested. The air in the night is quite refreshing.



She finally realizes that freedom is the most precious thing.

Lily tries hard to hold back the tears and secretly makes a decision in heart.

On the way to the detention center, a wire door separates the couple, with Rex sitting in the passenger
seat and Lily sitting in the back seat. For the first time, Lily heartily feels that she is a “criminal”.

When they are about to arrive, Lily gently calls his name, “Rex.”

Rex immediately turns around with nervousness in his eyes, “What’s the matter?”

In the past, when looking into his eyes, Lily would feel delighted and sweet, but now, she just feels
heartbroken. The sentence ‘I am pregnant’ lingers on the tip of her tongue. She finds herself unable to
say it out!

Realizing her hesitation, Rex asks with concern, “What’s going on?”

Lily tightly grits her teeth and speaks word by word, “Do you want a child?”

At this time, under such circumstance, this mindless question stuns Rex. When he comes back to his
own sense after a few seconds, he asks, “Why did you ask this?”

Lily suddenly feels nervous, fearing he might find out something, she hastily adds, “Nothing. I just feel
things in life are unexpected. And it is good to have a child.”

It is reasonable that she would have such kind of feeling since she has suffered a lot of dramatic
accidents recently.

Rex, who has been busy with various kinds of affairs these days, doesn’t take a second thought and
consoles her, “It’s all right. When everything is settled, let’s get married.”



He has told her that he wanted to marry her for many times. But at that time, she was worried about the
attitudes of his grandparents, her parents, and even the public. Now, after going through this case, she
finally learns that her worries at that time are just nothing. This case is the most difficult ordeal that she
has to go through.

Lily doesn’t continue this topic. Until she is taken out from the prison transporter into the detention
center, they have to say goodbye to each other. Rex, who is in a business suit, still looks handsome
although he’s a bit tiresome. But she herself is fleshless and has no grace anymore.

Lily seems to see the invisible gap between them two. Although they still love each other, something
has changed without being noticed. They can’t come back anymore.

Rex doesn’t know what she is thinking, but he can see the sadness on her face. Ignoring the rules of
the detention center, he walks over her and reaches one hand to hook around her neck, lowers his
head and kisses on her dry, cold lips…
