Mary looked at the medicine in her hands. The liquid exuded a pungent bitterness, but that bitterness

She lowered her head again and looked at her flat abdomen.

Not even three months had passed, so her belly had always remained inconspicuous.

Yet in these three months, she had gradually become accustomed to its presence, instinctively protecting her belly when someone approached.

She had even dreamed several times, dreaming of meeting this adorable child.

Mary’s tears fell, landing in the bowl of medicine. She said softly, “Don’t do it. I’ll set you free.”

With the child gone, going through with the DNA test would be the ultimate cruelty to Ellis, wouldn’t it?

She had been angry just a moment ago, wanting to let
