NovelUpdateChapter 4 Her Baby
Although her voice was faint, he heard every word she said. Elliot turned around with a frown, but Corynn had
already left.
He wasn’t sure why, but her parting words made him feel uneasy. Still, he agreed with her sentiment. She really
shouldn't have got herself involved with him to begin with.
Corynn had pursued him, and on a whim, Elliot entertained her and took her to bed. He regretted it almost
instantly, but her persistence eventually wore him down.
His gaze fell on the living room table. The check and the title deed were gone. Elliot breathed a sigh of relief.
When all was said and done, he didn’t want to owe Corynn anything.
He headed upstairs to take a shower. When he emerged from the bathroom, it was raining cats and dogs.
Streaks of lightning would break through the sky every so often.
Elliot found himself padding over to the window and looking outside. If he wasn’t mistaken, Corynn didn’t have
an umbrella with her.
Meanwhile, Corynn secured the check and the documents under her clothes, feeling utterly ridiculous despite
herself.
She had acted so dignified yesterday, refusing Elliot's offer and declaring that she wasn’t for sale. Yet here she
was, desperately trying to keep those guarantees safely home.

Her tears were mixed with the rain that streamed down her face.
She couldn't allow her foolishness and arrogance to harm her parents any more than she already had. They
needed this money to weather through the crisis they were facing.
As she plodded along, the rain grew heavier, and her mood grew even worse.
Corynn wiped the rain from her eyes and hurried to the side of the road.
She used to like how far from the city the Lark villa was. She thought it afforded her peace and relaxation. Now,
she found the place unbearably remote.
Corynn hugged herself as she shivered from the cold. Her phone showed no available rides. If she didn’t get a
driver to accept her request any tsoon, she would have no choice but to walk all the way to the bus stop.
It was almost ten o'clock.
She heaved a long sigh and pocketed her phone. It looked like she would have to take the bus, after all.
Just then, a white car sped past her, drenching her in dirty puddle water.
Corynn immediately put two and two together. Only Elliot's car should be traveling around this area, which
meant that any other party heading for the Lark Villa would be his fiancee.

She smiled bitterly to herself. It hadn't even been twenty-four hours since she left Lark Villa, and Elliot was
already moving his fiancee in. He really couldn't wait, huh?
Corynn checked her phone's battery life. It was hanging by a thread. She sighed again, thinking that her luck
had really run out on her today.
Corynn kept walking under the rain. Every tlightning flashed, she would jump and shudder, then she would
hurry her pace.
She had no idea how long she had been walking, but her body was nearly numb from the cold. Thankfully, the
bus stop finally cin sight. She rushed to take smuch-needed shelter from the rain.
At last, she received a notification that a driver had accepted her request. She rubbed her arms in an attempt to
keep herself warm as she waited for the driver to arrive.
A few minutes later, she saw headlights approaching from the distance. She stood up and raised her arm to flag
it down.
All of a sudden, she was forcefully pulled to the back of the bus stop, where it was dark and out of sight from the
road. The next thing she knew, she received a blow in her belly, causing her to double over in pain.

“You think you deserve to carry Mr. Andrews’ baby? You think you can marry into the Andrews family with these
dirty tricks? You should consider yourself lucky that Mr. Andrews even paid any attention to you, yet you're not
content with that, are you? You just had to get yourself pregnant!”
Punch after punch rained on Corynn’s abdomen. She couldn't even scream, as someone had put their large hand
over her mouth.
She managed to bite into that hand, hard enough that she broke skin, but the man only slapped her across the
face.
“Damn bitch! How dare you bite me!”
Pain was shooting from Corynn'’s belly to the rest of her body. It was so bad that she almost lost consciousness.
“No!” She cried out when she felt a warm liquid flowing down her thighs. When she looked down, she saw that it
was blood.
Her pain was compounded by fear.
Her baby!
Had Elliot becsuspicious when she mentioned the possibility of her being pregnant? Was he so against it
that he sent these vicious men to get rid of the unborn child?
Corynn felt the strength slowly leave her body. Vaguely, she heard the men curse when they, too, saw blood.
They fled the scene, leaving Corynn to bleed in the rain. Soon, all the blood was washed away.
The last thing she remembered was hearing footsteps. She opened her eyes for a brief moment and saw a figure
rushing toward her, then everything went black.
