1361 Abortion!
Jordan could not help but feel his heart ache when he recalled the scenes of their love in the past few years. He did not understand why every relationship he had did not end well.
First, he married into the Camdens and lived with Hailey for three years. However, he was betrayed by Hailey. After that, he got together with Victoria, who was ten years older than him. Although there was a difference in their ages, they were very happy together.
He had thought that they would make it to the end, but he did not expect that Shaun and Rong Bingshao’s appearance would cause Victoria’s life to change drastically. The relationship between the two of them gradually became impossible to repair.
As for Lauren, Jordan was originally the most confident that they would last because no matter what happened in the past, Lauren would never leave him.
In fact, before the Goddess of the Immortal Lake was summoned, Lauren had also decided to stay with him.
However, who would have thought that Lauren was from an alternate world? She had only come to Earth to do a mission. She had lived in an alternate world for 200 years and had unfathomable cultivation abilities. She was from a completely different world than Jordan.
The sudden change in status made the two people who were originally in love instantly no longer compatible.
Jordan was devastated, but he had his pride. He wiped the remaining tear and said, “Alright, you’re a goddess from an advanced civilization with a heaven-defying cultivation base. I, Jordan, am just an insignificant mortal on Earth. I am no longer worthy of you. If you don’t want to take me away and don’t want to be husband and wife with me anymore, I accept it.
“But I have a few questions for you.”
Lauren looked troubled when she saw Jordan’s sad expression. It was obvious that she did not want to see him like this. She replied softly, “Yes.”
Jordan asked first, “Where is our child? Before we came, Dragon told me that you were pushed into the operating theater and were already in labor. I don’t know how the Summoning of the Goddess affected you and the child. Did the five-colored golden light appear after you gave birth? Where is our child now? I want to see him.”
Since he could not keep his wife, Jordan did not want to beg Lauren humbly for the time being. He wanted to know what was going on with their baby.
The last time Lauren was pregnant with Chloe, Jordan did not know. However, this time, Lauren had been pregnant for ten months. From the beginning to today, Jordan had been waiting and looking forward to the birth of this baby.
However, Lauren said, “The child wasn’t born.”
Jordan was stunned. “You didn’t give birth? What do you mean? You didn’t give birth today? When will you give birth? Your stomach… looks like it doesn’t have a fetus anymore.”
Lauren paused for a moment and said coldly, “When you summoned me, I was indeed pushed into the operating theater, but I was brought to the hospital today not because of a stomach ache, but because of a headache. When I was lying in the operating theater, the five-colored golden light hit me. I was awakened and regained the memories of the past two hundred years. I also remembered who I was.
“After that, I used a mutant technique to abort the child in my stomach.”
Abortion!
Jordan went crazy. “What did you say? You aborted our baby? Why did you do that?!”
Lauren said, “I’ve made it very clear. I’ve recovered all my memories. I’m from another world. In my world, I’m not married yet. I shouldn’t have had any children. Besides, I already have a child with you. I’ve already made a mistake. I cannot make another one.”
Jordan was furious. “A mistake? How dare you describe our love as a mistake! Chloe is our child! And our unborn baby. How could you be so heartless!”
Those words left Jordan extremely heartbroken. His child had been aborted by Lauren on her own!
What right did she have to make this decision on her own?!
Was the child not worthy of being born? Just because he was from Earth?
If it was a male god from Lauren’s world, would that have been enough?!
Lauren said, “You don’t understand my world, let alone understand what I am going to face upon my return. I’m already under a lot of pressure to take care of Chloe. I cannot have another child with you. This is a good thing for both you and me.”
Upon hearing that, Jordan suddenly asked, “What did you say? You’re taking Chloe away?”
Lauren said that she wanted to bring Chloe to her world, but she also said that she wouldn’t bring Jordan along. In other words, Jordan wouldn’t be able to see Chloe in the future!
Lauren nodded. “Yes, Chloe is my child after all. Although her aptitude isn’t outstanding enough, I’ll bring her back and give her a brand new world and life.”
Jordan had also become sensitive now. Lauren said that Chloe’s aptitude was not outstanding enough. What she meant was that she had good aptitude, but Jordan’s cultivation aptitude was not good enough, so Chloe was not good enough.
It was Jordan’s bad genes as a father that dragged Chloe down!
Jordan was very angry. “First, you killed a child of mine. Now, you’re taking my daughter away. Don’t you think that’s too much? Since you think that Chloe’s potential is not good and that she’s your child with a lowly Earthling, you shouldn’t bring her along. You’ll be mocked and lose face. Don’t bring her along! Chloe and I will stay on Earth. I will take care of her!”
Lauren said, “Jordan, you said that you love me the most. I don’t doubt you, but you really don’t have the right to stand up and fight with me for Chloe’s custody. Ever since Chloe was born, I have been the one taking care of her. We’ve relied on each other for four years. She’s both my weakness and my armor. You have no idea what she means to me. I will be the one who takes care of Chloe!”
Lauren’s words rendered Jordan speechless. In terms of raising children, Jordan was indeed inferior to Lauren because in the past few years, Jordan had no idea that he had a daughter.
As for Chloe, she obviously preferred to be with her mother.
Jordan was silent for a moment before asking, “What about your parents and the Howards? Are you going to take them all away?”
Lauren shook her head. “Strictly speaking, they’re not my family. After I came to Earth and chose to become a mortal, I specially chose to be the daughters of Stefan and Marissa. They’re my targets, not my real parents. Of course, the Howards have taken good care of me for the past 20 years. When I leave, I’ll give them some benefits.
“After I was awakened just now, they were all in the hospital. I didn’t have time to explain much to them before I blew them away. If you see them, help me explain.
“Is there anything else? If not, I want to be alone. I’ve been a mortal for more than 20 years, and my ability is greatly reduced compared to before. I need to cultivate for a few days without being disturbed.”
