Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)

Chapter 1274 How nice it would be if childbirth was simple and effortless. He would like for him and Alice to raise their child without Alice having to go through such a harrowing experience.

If a man could get pregnant, he would be more than willing to bear the pain of pregnancy rather than let Alice suffer.

A housemaid went upto Elisa and whispered something in her ear.

Elisa told the servant something in a hushed voice and sent the maid away. After that, she turned to Alice and told her," Alice, please don’t hold it against my brother. He's a little out of it right now, you can see how even my mom is telling him off." Alice could not deny that she was rather upset.

She has been married to Clive for years now and the only reason they had pushed off having a child was that Clive was very possessive and wanted her all to himself. To appease him, she had been on the pill the entire tto avoid a pregnancy.

It was to the point where rumors were beginning to surface that she was infertile.

At last, the couple had finally agreed that it was tfor a baby.

She was pregnant in no tand was more than ecstatic about the prospect of having a child. Although it was still relatively early, just the fact that there was now a life growing inside her womb, a child who she and Clive could call their own, had brought her great pride. The child was to be the heir to their bloodline.

Her intrinsic maternal love has never felt stronger than the present moment; she regarded the child inside her as more important than her very life.

How could she be expected to abort the child? Clive had been needlessly harping about taking her to the hospital for an abortion, insisting that they should give up on ever having children and it should just be the two of them forever.

He justified it by saying that he had two brothers and they could bear the responsibility of preserving the bloodline.

Alice was livid.

She initially thought Clive was just rambling, but it turned out that he was serious.

She eventually told Mr. and Mrs. Stone about this, and they were understandably furious to hear of this.

She had not told her parents about this just yet, knowing that they would probably be so enraged that they would barge through the front door to give Clive a beating, "Elisa, your brother went as far as to schedule an appointment with the doctor. How do you expectto not be upset?” She vented her frustration to her sister-in-law.

Clive clutched Sonny tightly in his arms a short distance away and said in a hurt voice, "But | can’t stand to see you suffer, so it's better to call it quits. If you truly like children that much, we can take in Sonny and he can spend twith you every day." "Serenity, are you listening to all this nonsense this man is spouting?" Mrs. Stone was completely baffled by such a proposition, she grabbed Serenity's hand and turned to Clive, "Sonny is Liberty's son, how dare you have the nerve to take the boy away from her?" Serenity hurriedly diffused the situation, "Aunt Audrey, don't overexert yourself. Let's just calmly talk to Clive about this. It's not that he doesn't want the child, he's just very worried about Alice.” She turned to Clive and continued, "Sonny is going to start attending preschool starting September so he won't be able to spend twith you guys every day. Think about this, Sonny looks very cute, doesn't he? One day, you and Alice can have a child as cute as him as well.

"A child is a symbol of love and commitment between a married couple, so how could you say no to that?" Clive scowled.

"But Alice hasn't stopped throwing up. Just look at how much weight she's lost! It hurtsto see this, so if it's going to take so much just to have a child, then | would rather not have a child at all." Mrs. Stone was filled with violent rage and immediately began casting her eyes around the room to find something to fling at Clive. She rose sharply and marched to Clive to snatch Sonny from him, then he jabbed a kick at him while shouting, "Pregnancy is hard? Do you think being a mother is any easier?" "If you don’t want to have a baby, you shouldn't have gotten Alice pregnant in the first place. Now that she's pregnant, you have to see it through with her. You can't just suggest an abortion like it doesn't mean anything. You're killing your child! That's murder! "You keep talking about how difficult pregnancy is, but do you know how harmful abortion is for a woman? Abortion does more damage to the body than childbirth and she's at the point of her pregnancy where a medical abortion won't do. If she's going to abort the child, she's going to have to take the surgical route, which is more harmful!" Clive was speechless.

Liberty chimed in, "She's right, abortion can be very harmful to women. Also, she’s been pregnant for three months, hasn't she? Just hang in there a little longer and the violent vomiting should pass. At this point, abortion is just going to make things worse for her."
