Unexpected Blessing After Divorce

Chapter 26

Chapter 26 A Legal Identity

At first, Yuliana chose to be a teacher not because she liked children, but because she felt that the work environment of this profession was relatively simple and suitable for her personality.

Children aged six or seven were completely different from adults in their ways of thinking. They would fight. with each other for a tissue or an eraser, and they would break off a friendship because of an unintentional action. They would also cry because of a pencil or a workbook, which was completely beyond Yuliana’s imagination and understanding before she became an elementary school teacher. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

However, when those children encountered such issues, they would always seek help from the teacher immediately. In the first year of work, Yuliana was often overwhelmed by these things.

After some time, she realized that there would always be conflicts wherever there were people.

On the contrary, children were the simplest people in the world. After getting along with them for a long time, one would find that many complicated things became simpler.

After marrying Harry, she was ready to become a mother. She even wanted to have a child with Harry. She thought that if they had a child, her relationship with Harry would become different.

Her desire to have a child was once very strong.

However, they hadn’t consummated their marriage even until she divorced Harry. Surprisingly, she got pregnant after spending a wild night with Christopher.

“God must be playing a trick on me. But what can I do?” Yuliana exclaimed inwardly.

Even if it was a trick, she would accept it.

She wanted to give birth to this child.

Yuliana sat on a woven mat by the window. As she looked at the lights in the living room of the opposite building, she fell into a daze.

When Yuliana was a teenager, her father, Damian Livingstone, and her mother, Callie Xenos, divorced and married someone else. Later on, both of them also had children of their own. Even if they said they loved her a lot, she still felt that she was superfluous.

She really wanted to have her own family.

Therefore, when Harry proposed to get married, she agreed without hesitation.

In fact, both Damian and Callie were against it at that time. Yuliana knew that Harry didn’t marry her because he loved her, but she still married him.

Apart from her love for Harry, she also hoped that she could own a family and not just someone redundant. Now that she bore a child, she was no longer alone.

However, it was hard to get pregnant, but it was even harder to raise a child.

Neither her personal situation nor her financial conditions were suitable for giving birth to a child. Furthermore, children with unknown fathers always aroused suspicion, and people treated them differently.

If she wanted to give birth to this child, she must first give the child a legal identity.

Yuliana scratched the woven mat with her fingertips and stared out of the window blankly for a long time. After retracting her gaze, she picked up her phone, pressed her thumb on the screen for a long time, and unlocked it to check the call record.

She had no idea how long it took, and she finally stopped.

She hesitated for two seconds before she made a phone call.

The phone rang for a long while. When Yuliana was about to dial the second time, it suddenly connected. “Hello?” The man’s cold and unruly voice sounded on the other end of the phone.

Yuliana took a deep breath and said, “I’m Yuliana.”

The person on the other end was silent for a moment and let out a sarcastic chuckle. “Who is Yuliana? I have no idea who that is.”

Yuliana curled her hands unconsciously. She then pursed her lips and answered, “Christopher, I want to talk to you about something. Can I meet you tomorrow afternoon?”

“Why should I do as you said?” Christopher replied lazily.

“3 p.m. tomorrow. I’ll send the address to you,” After saying that, Yuliana hung up the phone without giving Christopher a chance to reject her.

Yuliana sent the address of a coffee shop to Christopher. That was also the one which she and Xandria often

went to.

After sending the message, she waited for more than half an hour, but Christopher didn’t reply to it at all.

She was not sure whether he would go or not.

That night, Yuliana had insomnia. She tossed and turned and could not fall asleep. Her mind was full of all kinds of things related to pregnancy and children.

When darkness fell, her joy, fear, anxiety, and other emotions would be magnified infinitely.

The next afternoon, Yuliana arrived at the coffee shop at 2:50 p.m. and ordered a cup of latte. Pursing her lips, she suddenly thought of something and put down the cup.

She glanced at the time and found that it was already 3:05 p.m., yet Christopher hadn’t gotten there yet. In fact, Christopher made it pretty clear last night. That night, she said those things to him. Given Christopher’s arrogant personality, he would certainly never come to meet her.

However, Yuliana didn’t leave. She didn’t give up waiting for Christopher until the latte was completely cold and the sky had turned dark.

Christopher didn’t come. She thought she would be disappointed and sad. However, at this point, she realized it was all right and she felt even more relieved.

Yuliana got up and was about to leave, but she suddenly caught sight of a figure. It was then followed by a loud thud from a chair. She looked up and saw Christopher sitting opposite her.

“Didn’t you say you want to tell me something? What? Are you leaving now?” Christopher leaned back lazily against the chair.
