Chapter 757
Lily felt like a fool when she realized her husband had known about it but said nothing until she
revealed it.She looked away, upset.
Alexander held her shoulders, turned her over to face him, and said earnestly, no longer smiling, "I did
find out yesterday, but I thought since you hadn’t told me, you must not have decided anything.I’d
rather hear it from you than me asking about it."
Lily said nothing and slowly returned her gaze to him.
"The fact you didn’t tell me right away shows you have either been struggling to have the child or mixed
feelings about it.No matter what, you had your reason for not telling me.Still, I’m glad you decided to tell
me so soon."
He truly loved and respected Lily beyond her imagination.

struggling over what to do.Do you not want the child?"
"I don't know.I only feel it came at a bad time, or maybe I’m just not prepared."

responsibility.

in the future, but there was a difference between dreaming it and having a child in reality.
"If you're unprepared and don’t want it, we should get it aborted soon.We’ll go to the hospital together."
Without a trace of hesitation, Alexander emphasized his every word.
"you don’t want it too?"
Lily was stunned that he had said it so casually.
"No! I want it," He answered without hesitation, "As I told you, I look forward to our children, but the
child is not just mine, but yours too.So, if you’re not ready or don’t want it, you shouldn’t give birth to
it.Nothing matters more than you."
"Let me think it through."
His firm support made it even harder for her to decide.Lily saw how thoughtful and loving her husband
was and felt she should not be so selfish.She got up to look for a piece of paper and a pen, sat back
down, folded the paper in half, and wrote on it, "Inconvenience at work, a recent order pending
completion, slows down my career growth, bad timing.There could be risks of..."
Alexander looked over and asked, "What are you doing?"
"writing down the pros and cons to help me decide,"

Lily flipped the paper over and was supposed to jot down the pros when she hesitated.It was as if she
was facing a complex problem.
"So you’ve decided not to have the child."
‘‘can’t she think of even one reason to keep the baby?"
"No."
Lily shook her head and looked up at him.
"I’ve made up my mind.I want the child!"
Alexander was surprised by her answer.He pointed at the paper before her.
"Wait, you couldn’t even think of one pro.Are you sure you want it?"
"Well, there is one reason."
Lily wrote one more word on the paper with giant letters—love.
