Around the fourth day, Abigail came back.
The moment Abigail appeared at the studio door, her face was so pale that Cornelia barely recognized her.
"Abigail, what happened to you?" Cornelia asked.
Cornelia quickly ushered Abigail to sit down and poured her a glass of water.
With trembling hands, Abigail took the glass and chugged the water down, "I lost my baby."
Abigail and her fiancé Trevor had gone back to their hometown to register their marriage, but the baby in her belly was gone.
At that moment, Cornelia felt as if her heart was firmly grasped by someone, the pain was almost unbreatable. She held Abigail's hand tightly, "What happened to your baby? What on earth happened in these few days?"
"I had an abortion." Abigail forced a smile.
Hearing that, Cornelia's mind went blank, "Why?"
"That man deceived me." Abigail explained the whole thing as detailed as possible, "Trevor was married before and has a four-year-old child. I don't mind that he was married, but I do mind that he lied to me."
This was also Cornelia's opinion. Having a marital history was not a big deal, but deception was absolutely unacceptable. If it were her, she might do something even more drastic.
Abigail continued, "The first couple of times I went to his house, they hid the child. The whole family conned me. Do you know why they didn't hide the child this time?"
