Chapter 9

There should be. There must be a process for there to be a result. In order to derive the result of pregnancy, sex, no, sex is a bit of an expression… Sleep? Yes, the process of sleeping is necessary. 

certainly. ‘Who was it?’ The most important thing right now is who the father of the child in the womb is. Who the hell got me pregnant? Who?!

“Oh, my God.” Ingrid’s face turned white. No one could ever guess. I’ve never slept with a man, but I’m pregnant. This is a lie. “I haven’t even gone out…” Ingrid had been ill for a month.

So I never went out of the house. As if I was a real house elf, I spent time in the mansion reading books, playing the piano, and helping John prune roses in the garden. But now I’m suddenly pregnant. Are you crazy? The last time she went out was when she attended the masked ball at Brandley’s Mansion. 

The masquerade, the last time she went out. She fell asleep drunk, and the last man she saw was a masked clown. “Was it that clown masked man?” This was a reasonable doubt. enough to be suspicious at all. “Did that bastard violate me?”

It could not have been done out of her consent. She was drunk and out of her mind at the time, and she wasn’t in a state of mind to agree on anything. Maybe that’s why the guy wearing the clown mask forced himself unto me.

“I’m going to kill you…!” 

But you have to know who you are to kill. All I know is that he wore a clown mask. 

“Now what?” Killing the clown mask was the second thing, and the urgent thing was to solve the problem of pregnancy. How should she do this?

“Pregnant?!” As you might have guessed, the stepmother almost fainted and she immediately sat on the long sofa.

Whether I was pregnant now or my stepmother was pregnant, Ingrid couldn’t figure it out. My stepmother was more surprised than I am now. The fortunate thing was that my father was now away from home. My father was going to the port now to check the progress of the newly built vessel.

When I went to Tenwood back then, my father was there. He held me by the back of my neck. And didn’t you fall? A record that has already fallen once. Because there is this person, the doctor said at that time, “If you are shocked again, then the baby will be put in danger.”

 “You’re pregnant… What the hell! Who is the child’s father?”

 “I don’t know that either.” 

“You don’t know? How can you not know who the father of the child is? You and doing that… that…”

 “Sex.” 

“Oh God……” 

Ingrid sat down next to her stepmother and gently grabbed that trembling hand. She was surprised too, but she thought that her stepmother would have a heart attack, so she decided to hold her hand and be taken aback later.

 “I think it was probably the day I came back drunk. I can’t even remember who it was… Actually, I can’t even remember what happened… but I am really with a child.” 

“What should I do with this… what if a rumour would spread about you?“ The stepmother cried. 

“Do not cry.” Before I too would shed some tears.
