Chapter 222
"I'm not doing it," she said. "I want to keep this baby."
Keith's reaction was way beyond what she had expected. Why was the first thing he said to demand abortion?
Even Elysia never pressured her into anything like this.
Sure, men and women thought differently, but this seemed like a massive gap.
Keith's eyes were somewhat red. "What are you going to do about it then? Keep Finnian's damn child?"
Amara frowned immediately. She really didn't like the way that sounded.
"Why are you talking like that? This is my child. This baby won't have anything to do with Finnian in the future."
Worried that Keith's anger was clouding his understanding, Amara reiterated, "This child will never meet Finnian.
He'll never know it exists."
To Amara, blood ties didn't mean much. She had an unreliable father herself, so she knew blood relations were
just that—a connection by chance.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat mattered more to her was raising a child, guiding them with the right values, and building a strong
emotional bond. That, to her, was what being a family meant.
So, she didn't care if the baby was Finnian's. It was hers, and that was enough.
"Are you really going to keep it?"
Keith's eyes grew even more blood-red at Amara's unwavering stance. His fists clenched tight enough that the
knuckles cracked, like he was about to blow up.
"Amara, I'm telling you one more time: get rid of this child. Don't keep Finnian's baby. You two are divorced."
What was up with this guy? He was usually so smart. Why couldn't he understand now?
Amara thought about it and figured Keith was just too emotional to think straight. She spoke softly, "Don't be
mad. | know you don't wantto have a hard time. But | just want a child. I'm not planning on getting married
again. Having a child is enough for me."
"Enough!" Keith suddenly shouted.
Amara was startled, her eyes wide as she looked at him. What was going on with this man? He was acting like
he'd lost his mind.
"Keith."
Though her thoughts were jumbled, Amara still wanted to explain things to him. But she only got one word out
before Keith turned and stormed off.
He moved quickly, a storm of anger surrounding him, like a lion who let its prey escape. Amara watched him go,
too shocked to call after him.
"What's wrong with him?"
Amara was baffled. She couldn't make sense of it, even after thinking for a long
time. So, she texted Elysia, summarizing the conversation with Keith.
Then she added, [Is he out of his mind? Why such a big reaction?]
Elysia replied with a speechless emoji.

She continued to vent, [He's really crazy. | expected him to be mad, but I thought he'd go find Finnian for a fight,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnot tellto get rid of the baby right away instead. What gives him the right? It's my body, my choice. Whether
| keep the baby is my business. Why does he keep insisting?]
Amara really hated when others made decisions for her. If someone other than Keith had pressured her like that,
she would have lost her temper, despite usually being gentle.
[Alas, it makes sense why he reacted
that way,guess. He probably doesn't want to see you burdened by the child. But if you have time, maybe try
talking to him. No don't. Just let him process it on his own.]
