Chapter 579: 200: The truth is, it’s a fake pregnancy!_2
Sylvia Thompson poured a cup of tea for Samuel Thompson.
The tea was clear and bright.
It was evident that Sylvia had a knack for brewing tea.
Samuel picked up the cup and took a sip.
On a normal day, he would have savored the taste.
But today,
no matter what he ate,
it was like chewing wax.
Samuel finished the tea in one gulp.
Sylvia looked up at Samuel, “Brother, are you troubled by something?”
“Yes,” Samuel continued, “I have something to ask you.”
“Go ahead,” Sylvia said.
Samuel asked, “How’s your relationship with Pag Gar?”
Hearing this, a glint flashed in Sylvia’s eyes as she continued to make tea, “We used to be quite close, but ever since I heard about her situation, I’ve felt some aversion towards her. I think a good girl shouldn’t have a one-night stand.”
Upon hearing these words, Samuel felt very uncomfortable.
“Actually, I was the one who had a one-night stand with Pag Gar,” Samuel said.
At this, Sylvia’s eyes widened, and then she laughed, “Brother, don’t joke around.”
“I’m not joking,” Samuel looked seriously at Sylvia.
Sylvia looked at Samuel, swallowing hard, “Brother, you-you really aren’t joking with me?”
“I’m not.”
Sylvia covered her mouth with her hand, “How could this be? You and her… Brother, what happened?”
If a stranger saw her surprised expression, they might think that she had nothing to do with the matter.
At this point, Samuel no longer wanted to find excuses for his actions and continued, “It’s complicated. I came to you because I want you to help me persuade her. Although the child is gone, I still want to take responsibility for her.”
“Take responsibility?” Sylvia looked at Samuel, somewhat uncertainly, “Brother, what do you mean by taking responsibility?”
“To marry her,” Samuel stated solemnly.
Sylvia frowned deeply, “But, Brother, don’t you dislike Pag Gar?”
Like?
Was he even worthy of liking anyone now?
Samuel sighed lightly, “Feelings can be cultivated after marriage. Since I did such a thing and caused a small life to disappear from the world, I should take responsibility for Pag Gar.”
“Brother, why don’t we just forget about it! Pag Gar isn’t seeking responsibility from you anyway,” Sylvia spoke up, “Marriage is a lifetime commitment, and if you act impulsively, you’ll definitely regret it later.”
“I’ve thought it through,” Samuel replied. “I won’t regret it.” If he didn’t take responsibility for Pag Gar, he would truly regret it.
Sylvia sighed, “Brother, have you really thought it through?”
“Yes,” Samuel nodded, “Sylvia, can you help me with this favor?”
They’d considered it from all angles, and only Sylvia could help with this favor.
Firstly, because they were both women and could speak more candidly.
Secondly, because Pag Gar already had a relationship with Sylvia.
If Sylvia were to intervene, the situation would be much easier to handle.
Sylvia looked at Samuel, “Brother, as siblings, both personally and professionally, I hope you can be happy. I know you don’t like Pag Gar, and if you live with someone you don’t like, you’ll definitely regret it for the rest of your life! So, I can’t help you.”
From the beginning, Sylvia had never intended to involve herself in this mess.
Of course, she wasn’t going to step in and help persuade Pag Gar now.
Her job was simply to advise Pag Gar.
Now that things had reached this point, she wanted to stay out of it completely.
Sylvia’s words were reasonable, and Samuel was deeply moved.
He was so happy to have such a considerate sister.
“Sylvia, I’m an adult and know what I’m doing. I’ve thought about this for a long time, and it’s not just a spontaneous decision,” Samuel said.
But Sylvia still shook her head, looking like the perfect little sister, “No, I can’t do that. Brother, think again!”
“I’ve thought it through,” Samuel insisted.
Sylvia continued, “Brother, don’t say that! I can’t possibly agree to this!”
Her attitude was resolute.
After saying that, Sylvia added, “Moreover, I don’t think Pag Gar is a match for you! In terms of knowledge, appearance, and temperament, she’s on a different level than you. If you were to reluctantly be with her simply out of a sense of responsibility, you wouldn’t be happy either! Brother, why should you compromise yourself just to take responsibility?”
