Reborn: Another Chance to Leave U by Hazel Ramirez

Chapter 457 Stepfather

"I never thought of leaving. It was only because of Jaylon's appearance that my family said that he was the child's

father. You might leave with Jaylon, so they let me go home first," Argus hurriedly explained.

When he first approached Reina, he did have other purposes, but after three months of getting along with her, he

really liked her.

However, the child in her belly had always been a hurdle in his heart. He pretended not to care before, but in fact,

he still had some grudges.

After all, no man would be willing to marry a pregnant woman.

And when Jaylon appeared as the child's father, the reluctance in his heart became even greater.

He needed time to sort out his emotions. Also, because of his mother, Sally, he simply moved home to calm down.

He had not thought about what to do next for the time being, but he was certain that he liked Reina and did not

want to give up.

"Your family asked you to go home. You went back, and then what? Argus, in fact, you don't like the child in my

belly. You don't want to accept her, do you?"

In her current situation, she never dared to hope for love.

The reason why she wanted to marry Argus was also very simple. All she wanted was for someone to stay with her

and the child.

If Argus could not accept the child in her belly, and even because of this child, he chose to escape when she

needed him the most. She would rather be alone.

It was not that she could not live without a man, and she didn't mind getting married either.

Argus did not know how to respond.

He wanted to say that he did not mind, but he could not say it.

After waiting for a few seconds without an answer, Reina no longer

stubbornly asked him. "It's getting late now. You should rest. Let's talk about it another day."

She did not blame Argus for this matter. Argus's reaction was just the reaction of a normal man.

However, based on the current situation, there was no need for the two of them to continue talking.

Whether it was this phone call or marriage.

Argus's heart was also in a mess right now. He told her to rest well before ending the call.

After hanging up the phone, Reina opened the delivery software to order food.

After a good while, Jaylon walked in from outside.

His eyes stared straight at her. "Why didn't you let Argus come over? Didn't you say he was your boyfriend?"

He thought for a moment and concluded, "Were you lying to me before?"

"I have no obligation to answer you. You are not going back tonight?" Reina glanced at him.

"I'll stay here with you."

"I don't need your company."

Jaylon didn't reply. He ended the conversation unilaterally.

As always, he made his decision without caring about her and stayed. After dinner, Reina picked up her phone

again. "How much is the consultation fee? I'll transfer it to you."

Jaylon did not want her money, but seeing that she insisted, he finally took out his phone and said a number.

The medical fee in this country was two or three times that of America. In addition, this was a private hospital.

Jaylon made an appointment with a very good doctor. The fee was several times more expensive than the ordinary

hospitals in America.

After the money was transferred, Reina didn't have much left in her

account.

Today, the doctor said that she might have to stay in the hospital for three

to four days. The money in her account might not be enough.

The next day, Reina went to apply for a transfer.

However, Jaylon had already informed the hospital. The hospital did not

agree.

Reina had no choice but to return to the ward.

Jaylon guessed what she had done. He looked at her and did not speak.

Reina said, "I will return your money to you later."

"No need. You have already paid more than half of the money. The rest of

the money I paid is to save our child's life."

The consultation fee for the first day is expensive, and it will be cheaper for

medicine later.

Reina said coldly, "I said that the child is not yours."

"Yes, not mine."

He didn't refute and Reina didn't know what to say now.

Reina held her breath and went back to the bed to lie down.

Jaylon continued calmly, "Although he is not my child, I don't mind being his

stepfather."

Reina ignored him and opened the audiobook app to listen to the news.

At noon, the door of the ward was knocked open.

Charles ran in from outside and called Reina.

Reina was in a bad mood for the whole morning. When she saw Charles, she instantly felt much better. She called

out to him in surprise, "Charles?"

The little fellow had a good relationship with Reina. Yesterday, he went to find her but did not see her. He was sad

for a long time. Today, he finally saw her. He wanted to jump directly onto Reina's arms.

In fact, he did do the same.

However, before he jumped onto the bed, Jaylon picked him up by the collar

and put him 3 feet away from the bed.

Charles's resentful eyes fell on Jaylon. He wanted to curse him.

After comparing their height and strength, Charles silently quit.

Forget it, I can't beat him.

When I grow up, I will fight him one on one.

Jaylon acted as if he did not understand the little guy's look and scolded,

"Her body has not recovered yet. Be good."

"Oh." The little guy responded indifferently. He walked past Jaylon to the bedside and jumped up with his hands on

the edge of the bed. He sat on

the bed. His chubby little face was full of worry. "Reina, why are you sick? Is

it very serious?"

"It's not serious. It's just an allergy." Reina smiled and rubbed the little guy's head. "Why are you here? Have you

told your parents?"

"This man helped me tell them. This man said that you hated him and didn't

want to play with him. He asks me to accompany you." Charles lay his head

on Reina's hands.

Reina smiled slightly. Jaylon didn't deny what Charles said and walked out

of the room.

"I'm going out for a walk. You guys can talk."

He felt that Reina would always be unhappy when he was present. It was

better to give her space.

After Jaylon left, Charles went over and held Reina's arm. "Reina, why didn't

you tell Argus that you were sick?"

"I wanted to tell Argus about this in the morning, but that man didn't allow me,"

Reina pinched his chubby little face. "Because I don't want Argus to worry. Don't tell him when you go back today,

okay?"

"Okay." Charles agreed immediately. Then, he took off his backpack and

took out a small cloth bag. "Reina, my Mommy made you cookies. Have a taste. It's delicious."

Reina opened the cloth bag and picked up a small cookie to put into her mouth. Charles stared at her with sparkling

eyes, looking forward to her

comments.

"Reina, is it delicious?"

"It's delicious." Reina nodded.

Charles smiled and asked, "Reina, I heard that there is a lot of delicious

food in America. Can you tell me what you like to eat?"

Reina nodded and told Charles about the dishes she liked. She also

introduced a few anecdotes that she knew.

Charles took out a small notebook and carefully recorded them one by one.

Reina saw that he was so serious and could not help but laugh, "Why do you

write them down? Do you want to go back and learn how to cook?"

Charles nodded and shook his head.

There was indeed someone who wanted to learn how to cook, but it was

not him.

He just worked hard for ten lollipops.
