His Heart Is Now Elsewhere

hapter 4

After that day, Axel didn’t go back home, using the excuse of being busy with work.

It just reminded me to take ‘pregnancy–protecting medicine‘ every day.

He didn’t know that the day after he left, I had already undergone an abortion surgery.

The menstrual period was mild and not very painful.

When I saw that tiny little bundle of flesh, I couldn’t help it. My heart ached so much that I couldn’t catch my breath. I held the little clothes I had prepared early and cried all night, saying sorry countless times.

With swollen eyes and a hoarse voice, I opened my phone countless times, wanting to interrogate Axel, why did he have to be so cruel to me!

But all I saw were countless intimate and affectionate photos posted by Elliana on social media.

Famous tourist attractions, amusement parks, shared an ice cream.

Without Axel’s face, his traces were visible everywhere.

I lay paralyzed on the bed, with a vacant look in my eyes and a heart as lifeless as ashes.

The package of “pregnancy–saving medicine” was carefully wrapped by me, and I put it together with the divorce agreement that I personally drafted with the help of a lawyer.

Afterwards, I sorted out all the couple items we had at home with Axel.

There were too many things, so I called a van and paid double the price, asking the driver to record the entire process of the garbage incineration at the landfill and send it to me, ensuring that not a trace would be left for Axel.

When the video was sent over, the workers came to my house, and I asked them to take down the large wedding photo in the living room.

The frame alone cost over a hundred thousand dollars, and I handed it directly to the worker. My only request was to destroy the wedding photos.
