Chapter 968 - Marrying An Illegitimate Child (1/2)

”So, you think it's okay if Sabrina aborts her pregnancy?”

”I didn't say it like that. I have lost my child once, and I know the pain very well. I know it is not easy to give birth safely. But if there are other reasons that make Sabrina have to abort her pregnancy, does the Atmajaya Family no longer want her?” Della said.

Seeing Della's worried expression, Raka tried to explain. ”Della, I know you were sad when you lost your child. But if you and mom don't budge, the marriage will only get more complicated. I'm sure Sabrina can give birth to her child safely.”

”I want to ask you. If Sabrina can't give birth to her child safely, will the Atmajaya Family not want her anymore? I'm not talking about the engagement party. But the Atmajaya family seems to think this child is much more important than our daughter,” Della looked very worried about Sabrina.

”So you think Arka married Sabrina just to give birth to a child? Or do you think that I married you just to give birth to my child?” Raka looked at Della with a deep gaze.

Della was silent, looking at Raka without being able to say anything for quite a while.

”Our marriage is decades old. When you miscarried, never once did I want to leave you. After that, even though you couldn't get pregnant again, I never asked you. I have always respected you as my wife. My mother was anxious and made every effort to take care of your health. But she also never pressured you to give birth to a child for me,” said Raka.

Della suddenly burst into tears. ”Indeed, you never asked me, but your mother always took me to the hospital to check my condition. She brought me medicine, vitamins and even herbal medicine. Isn't that the same as forcing me to have another child? If I had not given birth to Samuel, would you have left me long ago?”

”When you say this, try to ask yourself in your heart. Am I really going to do as you say?” Raka asked in a low voice.

”I don't know, but I don't want Sabrina to be like me. Why did she have to be pregnant at a time like this? Why can't she wait after marriage? Because of this child, she's going to miss her engagement party. Even her marriage had to be made simple. Why did this have to happen to Sabrina?” Della said in tears.

”What does a wedding party mean? For Sabrina, the most important thing is her health and the child in her womb. She wouldn't care if the party was grand or simple. The party is only meant for people to see, to make them happy. If we insist on aborting the child, will the engagement party be held happily?”

”But we are married once in a lifetime. Sabrina couldn't feel the engagement party nor the grand wedding party. I also feel depressed. There are many things to prepare. If something happens to Sabrina and her child, the Atmajaya Family will blame us,” Della is still worried.

”This time, do your duty to protect your daughter and grandchildren. Don't let Sabrina feel what you're worried about. If Sabrina can't get the engagement party, we can throw a grand wedding for her. Let someone else take care of the preparations for the party and you only have to do one thing, which is to protect her and her child. Can you do it?” Raka held Della's shoulder and looked at her closely.

Della shook her head. ”I don't know. I can't even protect my own child. How can I protect Sabrina and her child?”

”You have to do it. Sabrina is your daughter and as her mother, you have to protect her. Don't let her feel the loss of her child, like what you felt before. Don't let her experience an incident that could harm her and her child. She will definitely feel very sad,” Raka gave this responsibility to Della and forced her to accept it.

Della looked at him with tears on her face. ”Can I do it?”

”You are a good mother. I'm sure you can do it?” Raka replied.

After all these years, Della still can't forget the pain and regret when she lost her first child.

Raka knew this and even took her to see a psychiatrist. But that didn't work either.

She closed the door to her heart and kept the pain inside.

If this time Sabrina's wedding can be held smoothly and her child can be born safely, maybe Della's regret and heartache can be eased a little.

Raka and Della finally agreed to cancel their engagement and immediately held a wedding party. The only condition was that the wedding party must be held very grandly.
