In that moment, Gu Qili's heart softened. She packed up the medicine and prescription and went home with Mickey.
She never took the remaining medicine, just casually leaving it on the coffee table.
When Mickey asked if she regretted her decision, she was essentially asking herself whether she would regret choosing to keep this child—after all, it was Mu Shuoqian's child, the offspring of the man she loathed to her very bones. Yet, at the same time, it was also her own child.
If a mother wasn't pushed to the brink, how could she bear to abort her own child?
After deciding to keep the child, Gu Qili had Tang Tianyou go to the hospital to get her a fake abortion certificate, which she then mailed to Mu Shuoqian. In truth, she knew Mu Shuoqian couldn't care less about the child between them, but she had to let him know—even if it was just to spite him. After all, in this silent war, she was always the loser, utterly defeated without a chance to fight back.
