After Divorcing my Captain Husband

Chapter 596 A Painful Memory

And then there was the miscarriage.

These were the painful memories she was determined to keep hidden from him.

Her health had always been delicate, and the idea of taking emergency contraception worried her.

Since she had never been particularly fertile, and with Jones constantly reassuring her that there was no need to stress, she decided not to take the pill. But, after some time, she started experiencing bouts of nausea and a general feeling of discomfort.

When she finally went to the doctor, she discovered she was pregnant.

At that time, she and Jones hadn't had their wedding, nor had they registered their marriage. If she gave birth, the child would be considered illegitimate. Maggie feared that being pregnant before marriage would make Jones think he could manipulate her, so she didn't dare tell him or his family.

Afterward, she wasn't sure whether to feel relieved or devastated.
