I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 306

“A monster?” Jonathan became curious. “What kind of monster?”

Zoe replied, “The abbot of Daphunova Temple said that the fetus in my womb is the reincarnation of a cacodemon. If it's born, it will become an ominous omen for our country and lead countless demons to stir up trouble.” She paused briefly with a look of sorrow on her face. “I don't understand what the abbot said, but all I know is that this child is my flesh and blood. It's my child whom I will carry in my womb for several months. I don't have any family in this world. I only have this child. So what if it's a cacodemon? It's still my child, and I will give birth to it safely.”

Maternal love is undoubtedly the greatest love in the world.

A woman may be willful and unruly before having a child, but they can magically become loving after having one. This is the power of maternal love.

Of course, some deranged mothers and the like cannot be excluded.

After all, there are all kinds of miracles in this world.

“Where is the child's father?” Jonathan asked.

Zoe became even more depressed at that question. “I don't want to talk about him. He's the heir of a wealthy family and is already married. I thought he loved me, but once he found out I was pregnant, he gave me some money and told me to abort the child. After that, I took the money and fled to Yaleview under the protection of a kind monk from Daphunova Temple. He told me that Yaleview was the capital of Chanaea. Even Daphunova Temple wouldn't dare to go overboard here.”

Jonathan began to feel uneasy after listening to Zoe's story. He was a sensible person.

If there was something wrong with the fetus in Zoe's womb, but he still insisted on protecting her, he would become the sinner of Thymion if the fetus brought disaster to Thymion.

Everything carries a certain level of importance.

Compared to the country, a person's life and death were insignificant.

However, Zoe was also not in the wrong.

If his wife were pregnant with a cacodemon, he would put his life on the line to protect it. After all, it was his child.

However, Jonathan did not have a deep relationship with Zoe, so his thoughts were still rational.

Jonathan could not bear to leave Zoe behind either. All right. I'll stop thinking about this and leave it to Jeff and Mabel. After all, they're from the Department of National Security and are in charge of the country's safety. Whether they decide to kill the baby or not, I won't have to feel guilty about it.

Jonathan's heart clenched in sorrow when he thought of Mabel.

Mabel was still young and could be considered a peerless talent.

Was she already reaching the end of her life?

Jonathan did not want to lose such a friend.

The car continued moving toward Appleton Residences.

It was one o'clock in the afternoon when Jonathan and Zoe arrived.

Jonathan brought Zoe upstairs to Mabel's apartment and opened the door with his keys.

To Jonathan's surprise, Mabel and Beatrix were drinking in the living room.

There was even a pot of delicious beef stew on the coffee table.

Jonathan felt touched by Beatrix when he saw this scene. Although Beatrix might look cold and aloof, she was a kind and warm person. She knew that Mabel must be feeling depressed. After all, in the face of life and death, no one can stay indifferent about it. That was why Beatrix had come to accompany and drink with Mabel.

When Mabel saw Jonathan, she smiled and said, “You came back just in time. Come and drink with us.” Then she immediately saw Zoe, who was following behind him.

Mabel and Beatrix did not know what was going on.

They knew that Jonathan liked to fool around, but he would not be so absurd as to bring a woman back home to spend the night. Moreover, this woman was pregnant.

Mabel stood up and asked, “What's going on?”

Jonathan turned to Zoe and said, “Go to the room first. Come out when I tell you to.”

To Zoe, Jonathan was her last hope, so she listened to him without hesitation.

“Okay,” she said, then headed to the room.

Jonathan sat down in front of Mabel and Beatrix.

The two of them looked at him and waited for him to explain.

“Her name is Zoe. I met her three days ago when we took a taxi together. At that time, she wasn't feeling well, so I sent her to the hospital and left after paying for her hospital expenses. I left my phone number, and she called me today.”

“Then you brought her back with you?” Beatrix asked.

“This matter is not that simple. The fetus in her womb is strange. It is believed to be the reincarnation of a cacodemon. That's why people from Daphunova Temple have been hunting her. At that time, I didn't overthink it and just felt that I should not sit back and do nothing. However, according to the people from Daphunova Temple, the fetus would bring great misfortune to Thymion if it was born. I don't know how to deal with this.” He paused before continuing, “I think the only way to solve this is to find—”

“Jeff, right?” Mabel rolled her eyes.

Jonathan chuckled. “That's right!”

“It seems that Jeff is the only person we can turn to for something like that,” Mabel mused.

“That's right. I think so too,” Jonathan replied.

“All right, I'll call Jeff,” Mabel said and took out her phone.

The call went through quickly.

“Jeff...” Mabel looked gloomy as soon as she spoke. She rolled her eyes at Jonathan and immediately changed her form of greeting. “Chief Yount.”

Jonathan and Beatrix could not help but laugh.

Jeff was also feeling gloomy. He had been a cultured person all his life, but it all went down the drain because of Jonathan.

However, Jeff being gloomy was one thing. When he heard Mabel's explanation, he placed great importance on this matter. If Jeff was a petty person, he would have told them to bring Zoe over to him. However, he said, “All right. I'll come over right away.”

With that, Mabel and Jeff hung up.

Mabel said to Jonathan, “As the saying goes, 'If you lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas'!”

Jonathan and Beatrix burst into laughter again.

At that moment, Jonathan was not troubled anymore. All of his troubles had been unloaded on Jeff.

He did not feel any guilt toward Zoe either. If he had not saved her, she would have been captured by the two kickboxing experts.

As for handing her over to Jeff, at the very least, the latter was an upright person. All of his decisions were for the greater good.

After that, Jonathan welcomed Zoe out of the room. She had not eaten lunch either, so they ate together.

Mabel was very hospitable and even got someone to deliver some dishes suitable for a pregnant woman.

Jonathan took a sip of beer and said, “Zoe, a priest will be coming in a while. He's very curious about your situation and may observe you for a while.”

Zoe instantly turned pale. “Mr. Lawson, you aren't—”

“This situation is no small matter. You can ignore everything else for the sake of the fetus in your womb, but I need to take precautions. Do you understand?” Jonathan said seriously.

Zoe immediately stood up and said resolutely, “I want to leave!”

Jonathan glanced at Zoe. “Fine. If you want to leave, I won't stop you. However, if you stay, we will be studying your situation in detail.”

If Zoe insisted on leaving, Jonathan would be freed from his responsibilities on this matter.

He would not be troubled by this anymore.

Zoe was stunned. If Jonathan had insisted on making her stay, she would have been determined to leave. However, Jonathan had agreed so easily that she did not dare to leave anymore.

She knew that once she left Jonathan, people from Daphunova Temple would find her quickly, and this time, she would not be that lucky.

Zoe hesitated for a moment. “The priest won't hurt my child, right?”

“I can't guarantee anything, but I can assure you that he will never hurt you,” Jonathan replied.

Zoe clenched her teeth and said, “All right, Mr. Lawson. You're a good man. I trust you.”

“Sit down and eat, then.”

Zoe sat down obediently.

Half an hour later, Jeff arrived.

The moment he entered, he said, “I could feel the demonic aura when I was outside, but why can't I feel it when I enter the house? Could it be that the cacodemon sensed danger and restrained its aura?”

He came to a stop in front of Zoe as he spoke.

At that moment, they were still having lunch.

Jonathan chuckled. “Jeff, do you want a drink too?”

Jeff glanced at Jonathan and said, “Mabel's matter is not resolved yet, and there's another big issue. You're still in the mood to eat?”

Jonathan instantly became somber.

Mabel sighed lightly and said, “If I really can't escape from this, then it's fate. If it's fate, I'll accept it.”

A man's will prevails over the heavens'? It's all bullshit. Men are insignificant compared to the heavens. We are as insignificant as dust. How can I win over the heavens?

Jonathan remained silent.

Beatrix did not say anything either.

Jeff did not say anything more and turned to Zoe. “Can I touch your stomach?” He paused and continued, “I have no other intentions. I just want to feel what is happening to the fetus in your womb.”

Zoe looked at Jonathan, who reassured her, “Chief Yount is an upright person. Don't worry.”

Zoe said to Jeff, “Sir, I beg you. Please don't hurt my child. As long as you don't harm my child, I will do anything you ask.”

Jeff smiled wryly and said, “This makes me seem like a villain. Let me take a look first.”

Zoe nodded.

Jeff reached out and rested his hand on Zoe's stomach.

Jonathan, Mabel, and Beatrix looked at Jonathan nervously.

After what seemed like forever, Jeff withdrew his hand.

There was a grim look on his face. NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Zoe was terrified. “What's wrong, Sir?” She was on the verge of tears.

“It really is the reincarnation of a cacodemon,” Jeff said.

“What exactly is a cacodemon?” Jonathan asked.
