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

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.

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