After Divorce, My General Husband Chasingโฆ 1/6
Chapter 330 Awesome!
Carolineโs heart pounded with anxiety the moment she heard the news. She thought, โIf Claire goes through with the abortion right after finding out sheโs pregnant, what will happen to my plans?โ
โClaire,โ she blurted out, โwhy would you abort Frederickโs baby? You two are already engaged! Marriage is the next step. And now that youโre having his child, you should just get married!โ
Caroline paused mid-sentence, a devious thought slithering into her mind. If Claire did want to abort the baby, it would be better if Caroline pushed from another angle. If she could prove that Claire had slept with Antony before the abortion, Frederick wouldnโt need any persuasion. He would automatically assume the child was Antonyโs.
Caroline grinned triumphantly, her thoughts alight with exhilaration. โThis plan couldnโt be more perfect! The timing of this baby is just right. Itโs as if fortune itself is winking at me!โ
But Claire didnโt flinch, completely ignoring Carolineโs words. Her gaze was locked onto Frederick.

Claire thought, โCaroline tried to kill me once by pushing me off a cliff. Why would I listen to anything she says now? She always has an ulterior motive. And her intentions are deliciously wicked.โ
The moment Claire mentioned the abortion, a fiery rage ignited within Frederick. His mind flashed back to the whispered conversations of the servants in the Halfmoon Manor. A part of him still held onto a sliver of hope. But he remembered the promise he made to Elizabeth in the Prescott Manor earlier that morning. His lips twisted into a smile.
โOkay,โ Frederick finally said, nodding in agreement after a long, tense silence.
Caroline gaped at him in shock. โWhat? Wait, Frederick, youโre actually letting Claire abort the baby? Why?โ This was not what she had expected at all.
Caroline had always believed that Frederick was deeply infatuated with Claire. After all, even when Caroline had thrown herself at him, he had rejected her. He had always shown interest in Claire, especially in bed.
Besides, according to what Anna had told Caroline countless times, Caroline was convinced that Frederick would never allow Claire to get an abortion.
But then, Caroline pondered, โFrederick hates Claire because of what happened with Anna. Heโs tortured Claire before. How could he possibly let her carry his child? Yes! He hates her! If I add the video of Claire and Antony into the mix, Frederick will lose it! Theyโll break up for sure, and maybe heโll even kick her out!โ
The thought sent a rush of adrenaline through her veins.
With Frederickโs approval, Claire clutched the pregnancy test report and headed back to the gynecology clinic.

โYour test was done too late,โ the doctor explained. โIf you had come before noon, the results would have been ready by 3 or 4 p.m. But since your blood was drawn this afternoon, youโll have to come back tomorrow for the results. Go home and rest. Weโll talk once the tests are finalized.โ
The gynecologist glanced up from the charts. โCaroline, some things arenโt as simple as you think.โ
Frederick lingered by the doorway, his gaze following Claire as she disappeared into the clinic. Turning slightly, he addressed Caroline.
โOkay,โ Caroline replied curtly, nodding.
Inside, she thought, โHonestly, itโs the least of my concerns. If anything, Iโm the one whoโd rather not see that baby come into the world.โ

After some time, Claire emerged from the clinic and rejoined Frederick and Caroline. Together, they made their way back to the Halfmoon Manor. By the time their car wound up the familiar path and pulled into the driveway, the afternoon sun was casting long shadows, marking the hour at three oโclock.
None of them had eaten lunch, and Bailey, ever attentive, quickly arranged for a meal to be prepared.
After the meal, Frederick left for the Kingstown Security Department. Claire and Caroline exchanged no words as they made their way upstairs.
With Frederick gone, Caroline didnโt even bother pretending to be cordial. Claire, weary of the constant manipulation and mind games, retreated to her room without a word.
Alone in her bedroom, Caroline wasted no time, her mind buzzing with possibilities. Mulling over her options, she found there was only one she could manipulate to her advantage among all the people in her circle. It was Zachary.
She knew she had to call Zachary. Yet, she hesitated because summoning Zachary meant unleashing a storm she wasnโt sure she could control.

She murmured, โWell, I donโt want to deal with him again. Ever since I found those young hunks, Iโve realized how much better it is to pay for attention rather than beg for it. Moreover, when it comes to sex, the younger the man, the more malleable and advantageous he tends to be. As long as Iโm willing to pay for it, finding some dashing young guys is a breeze. Itโs amazing!โ
Lost in her thoughts, Caroline was startled by the sudden ringing of her phone. She glanced at the screen, her eyes widening in surprise and delight.
โCaroline, Iโm back! Iโm finally back! Letโs meet tonight!โ Dianaโs voice was filled with uncontainable joy as soon as Caroline answered the call.
โWhat? Really? Are you really back? Are you in Kingstown now?โ Carolineโs excitement bubbled over, her voice almost trembling with the urge to erupt in a shout of exhilaration.
She thought, โGod really is on my side. With Diana back, I have everything I need to destroy Claire.โ
