Now, I looked at the two figures hugging each other outside the window.
I gave a dry smile and shook my head.
“Prescribe me some lighter abortion pills.”
“I am going back to Vermont soon. Bringing a baby with me is not convenient.”
“Besides, Eulalie smokes, drinks, and lives a messy private life.”
“In this case, how could a child born from this ever be healthy?”
My dad also built his wealth by depending on my mom.
After he was successful, mistresses one, two, three, four, and five showed up one after another, along with many children born outside marriage.
Exactly because of this, I wanted a sincere relationship.
But the first time she was caught in bed with someone else, Eulalie showed no guilt at all.
Instead, she spoke to me as if she were completely right, “Valerian, why are you acting mad?”
“Your dad has more than one woman. What is wrong with me having fun outside once in a while?”
“Think about how your mom dealt with it.”
“You grew up seeing and hearing all of this. How is it that you still have not learned how to be a kept husband in a rich family?”
