chapter 1587

"Can you feel that, Jane?"

"..." Jane did not respond. Of course she felt it. The sensation of kicking in her stomach had been distinct. She was thin and so was the skin on her belly, so she could even see an extremely small footprint, she gently stroked her belly and, as though there was telepathy between them, the little foot kicked her again without warning as soon as her hand touched her belly. Jane grinned. "My child. My child. This... This is my baby?" she looked at the people around her in tears and everyone nodded at her.

"It's your baby, Jane."

"Your mom did this because she doesn't want to be a burden to you. Even if it's for the baby in your belly, you need to be strong and live." The servants had not spent much time with Jane, bu they were all people of low status who shared a common concern for one another. Seeing that there were so many people who cared for her, and the actual feeling that there was indeed a baby growing inside of her, Jane decided at that moment that she no longer wanted to die. Yes, she could be selfish for the sake of her child. '

"Mom, I'm sorry," she mumbled in tears. "Noah, I'm sorry. Once I raise my child to adulthood, I will find you and be by your side."

Lenny also joined and comforted Jane by saying, "Jane, once you give birth to your child, I will raise him for you and let him call me father. That way, no one will cast you aside. II

"Thank you, thank you... Master Powell. Thank you." Jane looked at Lenny in gratitude.

Jane spent that night in despair and sorrow, but as depressed as she was, she still had to go to work the next morning.

It had been Ivy's idea for Jane to work at the restaurant. She simply could not bring herself to like Jane and resented Jane for refusing to help her back then. Therefore, she wanted Jane to do the hardest chores in the restaurant.

'It just so happens that Master Alex is coming to the restaurant today, so I need to make sure that Jane makes a fool of herself!' she thought.

Jane knew that a lot of the elites in White Ocean city were going to officially welcome Alex in the restaurant and pleaded to Ivy," Ninth lady, can... Can I take a rest day today?" "No!" Ivy immediately barked.

Jane nodded. "Okay."

So what if she went? she had cleared things up with Alex and the two of them were no longer related in any way. Alex would not do anything to her. In this world, Jane trusted Sabrina most, and if Sabrina said that Alex meant her no harm, she no longer had any reason to fear him. If she ended up seeing him again, all she needed to do was to treat him like a stranger.

That morning after her mother committed suicide by jumping into the ocean, Jane went to work at the restaurant with a heavy heart. The guests at the restaurant had been a few powerful individuals and some ladies of elite families. Though they might not be as glorious as the ones in Kidon City or South city, they were still far more noble-looking than a pregnant janitor who cleaned after them.

"Hey, pregnant lady! You need to serve the guests at the front with drinks because today is going to be a busy day!" Ivy commanded.

Jane knew that Ivy was doing it on purpose, but she simply replied with an 'Okay,' before heading out with the beverages. As soon as she stepped out, she spotted Alex. Their eyes met and both froze in place.
