Chapter32

“Antonio, the day I had the abortion, I was covered in blood like this too. Why didn’t you say anything then?

“When I was five months pregnant, carrying our child, bleeding out after doing surgery for your little mistress, I was drenched in blood too. Why didn’t you say anything then? When you were in love with someone else, did you ever think about me? Did you ever feel guilty? When you swapped vitamins for hormones, did you hesitate for even a second?”

“You’ve had enough, Antonio. You just lost the person who cooked for you and did your laundry. I’m begging you, just sign the divorce papers.”

Antonio stood there, completely stunned.

He stared at me, his eyes slowly reddening.

He reached out as if to hold me, but when he saw the blood on me, his hands trembled.

“No, no, Grace, it’s not like that.

“I love you. I swear I didn’t mean for this to happen… It’s not like that…”

Antonio collapsed, holding his head, sobbing uncontrollably.

But I felt nothing.

That day, I’d gotten the surgery done despite feeling sick from the bloody smell.
