Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Mary had always made a wish so innocently that her daughter, in a certain corner of the world, would live as well as Natalie.

It did not matter if she was not as good as Natalie. Even a little worse, she would feel at ease if she was safe and healthy.

How dare Mary imagine what a four-year-old girl would experience and encounter after she disappeared!

Perhaps trafficked to remote mountainous areas.

Maybe sent to do hard work in the coal mines.

Maybe...

How dare she imagine!

Mary hurt every time she thought about it, and it hurt her heart. She had migraines, which cannot be cured because of it.

Every time she had a headache, she could do nothing but lie on the bed, feeling nauseous and dizzy, short of breath.

"Mrs. Wood, you are also a mother. I dare not expect you to empathize with me, but please understand me. Even if Natalie is an adopted daughter, I will protect her till the end." Mary wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.
