Chapter 1:

“Sorry, Ms. Nelson, you haven’t been able to keep the baby,” the doctor said gently to the woman before her.

Belinda Nelson sat in the doctor’s office, her eyes fixed on her phone screen as she absorbed the grave news, distractedly scrolling through her newsfeed.

Displayed on the screen was an image of a man and a woman exiting the airport side by side.

The woman, identified as Cathy Miller, was a burgeoning star in show business, recently returned from a three-year educational stint abroad. Accompanying her was Kristopher Cox, CEO of the leading Cox Group in Nawrin.

Unbeknownst to the public, Kristopher was also Belinda’s spouse and the father of her unborn child.

The online comments celebrated the pair as a perfect match, oblivious to the fact that Kristopher had been secretly married for the last three years.

With a heavy heart, Belinda locked her phone and faced the doctor. “So, the baby… didn’t survive?”

The doctor, sympathy evident in her eyes, shook her head. “Ms. Nelson, given your terminal condition, your body has been unable to nourish the fetus for quite some time.”

She slid the pregnancy termination notice across the table toward Belinda. “The fetus is now deceased. We must proceed with the abortion soon to safeguard your health.”
