If Zachary were to discover that everything was a lie she told just to keep him by her side, he would rather die than be with her or say another word to her. There would be zero chance to reconcile, and even the coldness he displayed toward her would completely cease to exist.
Sophia took a deep breath and projected confidence. "What are you talking about, Zachary? Why would I lie to you? You're my husband, and we had a child before your car accident. I want to have another child because I don't want Benjamin to be so lonely. Don't you think he's keeping to himself more and more? Besides, I love kids, and I'd like to have a daughter too. Being a family of four will make things much livelier at home with Benjamin having another playmate. Don't you think that's a good thing, Zachary?"
Sophia was skilled at conjuring up reasonable explanations, and Zachary was used to her ways. He let out a cold huff and said, "And did that necessitate the use of such a disgusting method?"
Sophia's expression revealed a slight hint of guilt. "Zachary, it's... It's not disgusting! It's a legal method with techniques rooted in science. A lot of couples use artificial conception if they're unable to get pregnant through normal means, and-"
"Those couples will never undergo the same treatment as I did!" Zachary cut her off. "Do you think other women will lock their partner in a room, force them to watch those obscene videos, and allow a nurse to get their partner off? I'm sure most men would have been given full disclosure and presented with a choice of whether or not they want to undergo such treatment. I, on the other hand, was kept in the dark and brought here to be subjected to this torture!"
Sophia began to play the pity card. "Do you think I wanted this? You have no idea how jealous and sad I am! You're my husband, and I wouldn't let another woman touch you if I had the choice! But... You've lost all mobility in your legs, and I was left with no other option but to consult a doctor. He advised me to proceed this way. I gave it a lot of thought before I decided to follow the doctor's recommendation. I know you don't want this, Zachary, but it's just a process. A means to achieve our goal! That's all it is! There won't be a next time, so let's move on from this. It's for the best."
Zachary stared at her coldly in a cynical rather than disappointed expression. "Don't use the word 'our'. It's your goal, not mine."
Sophia was stunned by that response and cried even harder. "Haven't you ever considered having another child with me? Have you never had feelings for me?! I want to bear your child because I love you. Can't you understand that? There's nothing wrong for a legally married couple to have another child!"
