Chapter 239

Great, Arno must have found out that Aurelia was pregnant. That was why he came rushing back without any regard for his work.

How heartbroken he must be!

When Jolin saw him, she hurriedly turned to clean her tears, not wanting him to see.

Aurelia also quickly cleaned the tears on her face, desperately suppressing her emotions.

But Arnold saw it all.

“Aurelia!” He called out softly, his voice slightly trembling.

Aurelia instinctively pulled down her jacket to cover her protruding belly, feeling an indescribable embarrassment.

Slowly, she lifted her eyes, a crystal clear tear still clinging to her eyelashes.

After swallowing hard, she barely managed to speak, “Arno, why are you back?”

She tried to smile at him, but the smile faded before it could even form as if blown away by a cold wind. Her expression twisted Arnold's heart.

He knew she wouldn't tell the truth, nor would Leopold allow her to. She could only bear all the grievances herself, swallowing them like bitter pills.

Like a hurricane, he rushed over and pulled her into his arms, “I'm sorry. It's my fault. I didn't protect you, and you've suffered so much.”

His eyes were full of pain. The moment he held her, he knew he could never leave her. He wanted to hold her like this forever, never letting go.

Maybe three years ago, he had already fallen in love with her. No matter who he was with, her image would flash through his mind, but he never realized it.

That was how people were. Only when they were about to lose something, did they truly understand what they wanted.

Aurelia was shocked by his reaction. She froze, not knowing what to do, “Arno?”

Jolin looked at them, her heart filled with mixed emotions. Arnold did like her daughter, but such a good son-in-law was about to slip through their fingers.

"Arnold, don't you blame Aurelia?”

Arnold gently stroked Aurelia’s hair, full of heartache. He only blamed himself. If he hadn't given up on her in the first place, she wouldn't have had to suffer so much.

“Jolin, it's my fault. I didn't even know she was pregnant.”

“But the child in her belly,” Jolin sighed heavily.

E

“The child is mine.”

Arnold said each word clearly. Each word was like a bomb exploding in the air, making Aurelia shocked.

She was completely stunned, her eyes wide open and staring at him. She never thought that Arnold would shoulder this responsibility for her.

Jolin was taken aback, fearing she had heard wrong, “Arnold, what did you just say?”

Avery heard it loud and clear, and took over, “Mom, Amo said the child is his.”

Jolin's tight nerves instantly relaxed, “Aurelia, why don't you tell me the truth? You scare me to death.”

The child was Arnold's, which made things much easier. They could naturally get married.

Aurelia was in turmoil, wanting to say something, but all the words were stuck.

Arnold held her face, looking deeply into her eyes, full of tenderness, “Aurelia, with me here, you don't have to fear anything. I'll keep you away from all the dangers.”

Aurelia’s mind was in chaos, like a tangled mess. For the first time in her life, she had no idea what to do. All she knew was that his palm was warm, really safe, and only he could provide this kind of warmth and safety, something she would never get from Leopold.
