The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 144

Back then, Abigail had told me that the company was at a crucial stage of going public and that she was too busy to care for a child.

I had sincerely promised her that I would take responsibility for our home, for her, and for our baby. I had assured her that she wouldn't need to worry about anything; all she needed to do was keep the baby.

Perhaps I had pestered her too much, because eventually, Abigail agreed.

I had happily prepared the baby clothes and bottles. I had even set up a room and filled it with adorable dolls and cheerful decorations.

Not long after, Abigail mentioned a week-long business trip she had to take.

At the time, I was worried about how she would handle traveling while pregnant. I had offered to accompany her, concerned for her health.

But she had refused, saying that she needed to meet some clients and that her assistant would be with her. She insisted that I didn't need to go.

When she returned a week later, her face was pale, and she looked unwell. I bought some chicken to make her a nourishing soup, hoping to help her recover.

But while doing her laundry, I had found a hospital document in her pocket. It was an abortion record. She had gone to the hospital to get an abortion behind my back.

When I learned the truth, it felt like my entire world had crumbled.

I stormed into Abigail's room, knocking furiously. "Abigail, tell me the truth. Where did you really go this week?"

She had woken up with a scowl, her face dark with irritation. Her voice had cut through the air, sharp and impatient.

"Are you insane? Didn't I already tell you that I was on a business trip? I finally got home to rest, and now you're shouting at me for no reason!"

I couldn't believe it. Even when confronted, she had still lied to my face.

Silent tears rolled down my cheeks.
