Abigail's Second Life novel Chapter 800

Holding the document, Abigail was filled with confusion and disbelief.

The child she desperately protected turned out to be Josh's.

What was going on?

Back at home, Abigail placed Larry on the couch and carefully examined his face.

Unfortunately, the little one was too small, with a round and chubby face that, aside from being cute and adorable, bore no resemblance to Josh.

Feeling like a storm was brewing inside her, she eventually called Josh.

When Josh returned from work, he entered and asked Abigail in confusion, "What's wrong? What's going on?"

Abigail grabbed his collar, pulled him to the couch, made him sit down, and gazed at him for a moment before inquiring, "When was the last time you were with Luna?"

"It's been a while, over two years... Why?" Josh couldn't recall.

There was a period when his memory was particularly hazy. During that time, he drank heavily, not caring about anything, as if he were always engulfed in darkness.

Abigail glanced at Larry, who was playing with a ball on the couch, took a deep breath, and then said, "Larry is your child, left to you by Luna."

She had considered many possibilities, fearing that the child might belong to a despicable person. But because it was Luna's child, she had always refrained from entertaining such thoughts.

Yet she never imagined the child would be Josh's!

Josh's eyes widened in shock, even more so than Abigail when she first received the results, incredulous. "How is that possible? I don't remember..."

"Just because you don't remember doesn't mean you can deny it. The child is yours!" Abigail's grip tightened on his collar, her eyes fierce.

After a moment of bewilderment, Josh turned to Larry.

Following his gaze, Abigail let go, her heart suddenly softening.

She had fought so hard, endured so much for this child, and faced numerous challenges, but the outcome was unexpectedly perfect.

Suddenly, everything felt worthwhile.

Abigail's throat tightened, and a smile slowly spread across her face. Taking two steps back, she smiled even more brightly. "I never expected the child to be yours. Everything that happened this year was worth it."

As she sat down, tears welled up in her eyes. "Luna, the child was actually Josh's."

Sometimes, she felt aggrieved by the chaos this inexplicable child brought into her life, but in the end, it was worth it because the child was Josh's.

Josh, holding Larry, appeared bewildered.

He strained his memory; he only remembered the times he was drowning in alcohol, perhaps having seen her a few times but waking up with no memory of it.

During that time, he was living in a haze.

It turned out that while he was lost in his indulgence, Abigail and Luna were both carrying heavy burdens.
