“She’s the one who’s got her scandal featured on the news, isn’t she?”

“Absolutely. I could’ve never imagined someone with such an innocent image to pull off a pregnancy out of wedlock behind closed doors.”

“Why haven’t I heard of the child’s father, though? Don’t tell me that woman has stooped to becoming some tycoons’ mistress and bore them an illegitimate child?”

“I think so!”

Upon hearing those remarks, Angeline was thoroughly dumbfounded.

Pregnancy out of wedlock?

That was the most humiliating criticism she had ever received. What made matters worse was that the skeleton she had been keeping in the closet for so many years was exposed just like that right in front of everyone.

“Angeline!”

Nancy flurried right over and dragged Angeline, who was puzzled in place, to a corner out of the public eye.

“What happened exactly? Have you really had a premarital pregnancy?” probed Nancy. A tinge of anxiety crept over her.

After being yelled at, Angeline eventually regained her senses, her face ghastly white.

Realizing that she could no longer keep the secret under her hat, she flashed Nancy a serious visage while pursing her lips and admitting, “Yes.”

The second Nancy verified the truth, she staggered a little, almost losing her balance. “H-Hold on… You’re kidding, right? Why did you keep me in the dark?”

“I’m sorry,” responded Angeline as a wave of guilt washed over her. “I hadn’t debuted when it happened, which is why I had never made a public confession. Besides, it’s not even something proud to be brought to light.”

Listening to those words, Nancy pressed on the wall to support herself as she gradually calmed herself down. Moments later, she voiced, “So, you really had given birth to a child? Who’s the father, then?”

Angeline’s mien turned as grim as death at the mention of the child’s father. Sheer disappointment deluged her as if her heart had plummeted to the ground.
