Chapter 821

Dailey seemed oblivious to the shift in her expression, not calling her out on her poorly executed act of innocence. He pulled up a chair and sat down.

It took Nelly a moment to collect herself, her voice choked with a hint of resentment, "Dai, we lost our baby..." Dailey merely hummed in response.

"And the doctor said... I can't have children anymore," Nelly added.

But she wasn't foolish enough to bring up that topic herself.

The wedding was going on as planned, closing the door on any future with Christine.
