“Turst, I’ve never had a child. Second, I’ve already told you before we got married–I don’t like children. Third, the idea of adoption was yours, you said your vast family fortune needed an heir.
Ponto interrupted me sharply.

ma’am, I can’t keep your secret anymore. Mr. Spencer, ma’am did have a child before. Not only that, but she suffered severe blood loss during, childbirth, and having another child could be life–threatening. That’s why she refused to have children with you”
Hearing this. Ponto didn’t say a word. He turned and stormed out of the gym, and Fenny ran out, her face covered by her hands.
