Jolie stood at the entrance of the hospital, taking a deep breath.
She couldn’t bear to part with the child, but she had to face it again. She had finally managed to leave behind that restrictive life and couldn’t afford to go back.
Kaeden gently patted her shoulder and spoke frankly, “Have you really made up your mind? I will support you no matter what you decide. If you want to keep the baby, I will help you raise him.”
Jolie frowned and punched him hard, “What are you saying? You can’t be too honest, raising someone else’s child, what were you thinking.”
