Chapter 135 What Happened a Year Ago


    Emily came too suddenly and she was at a loss of what to do. At that moment, Andrew had already


    gone for a meeting and only the two of them remained. It was truly awkward.


    “That’s true, just sitting here without talking was rather weird.” Emily also agreed and was calm and


    modest. She smiled elegantly.


    But she didn’t seem to raise a topic for discussion.


    Sarah felt that the atmosphere was ufortable. She pursed her lips and clenched her teeth and bit


    on her lower lip.


    “I have an issue that I don’t understand, Emily, how do you know that I’m pregnant?”


    Sarah’s expression was pleasant and was her usual tone of voice. There was no indication of curiosity


    or if anything was out of ce.


    Perhaps, this was just a normal question.


    “This… since Andrew knew, you should be able to guess it.”


    Emily replied.


    On hearing this, Sarah was stunned and her eyes deepened, it was a dead end.


    The two back and forth talking about meaningless subjects awkwardly. Then something Emily said


    which was out of ce and shattered the moment.


    “After saying all these, let’s get back to something serious. I’m actually here today to inform you of


    something.”


    Emily said as she looked at Sarah seriously but was suppressing the intensity. Regarding all these, she


    said clearly in her words, “Do you know? I once was carrying Andrew’s child.”


    Her heart was like being smashed with a ton of bricks.


    It was like an atomic bomb, piercing through her chest with blood spattering all over but it was thick


    ck blood covering her hands.


    Sarah looked at her in disbelief that she would say this directly to her.


    How could she not know these?


    And she, she must also know that Sarah knew this. Her voice was perplexed and revealed some


    hopelessness and extreme sorrow, “I know, the child was conceived in a strangebination of


    circumstances. But which woman wouldn’t love her own child? I knew that he came at the wrong time


    and was a worry. But I never knew that he woulde so quickly and leave equally fast.”


    It was as if her heart was ripped off. All her breath was being prevented by an invisible hand. She


    couldn’t breathe.


    “Sarah, do you know? When the child was lost, I almost went mad. I was thinking how can I be such a


    failure. I don’t even know that I was pregnant! The child was my flesh and blood and was Andrew’s


    also. How can I lose him just like that?”


    Emily started to be worked up and her sorrows and pain can be seen on her face. Her eyes


    turned red.


    “When the doctor told me that I had a miscarriage and I may never be pregnant again, I almost lost it.


    Do you know how painful a woman feels when she loses the ability to do what she desired the most?”


    Sarah sat quietly beside her and listened to her outpouring of emotions. She maintained her


    “I know.” She spoke. The naturally crimson lips smirked slightly, “Yes, that kind of pain Andrew will


    never know and he mes it all on me, making me the murderer. If it hadn’t been for him being drunk,


    there wouldn’t be that incident a year ago. But I can’t hate him because he treats me very well. He was


    so good to me that I thought that he wouldn’t mind about my defect, but I was wrong. It never will be


    the same. At least on the matter of bearing a child, it has separated us forever.”


    No man will love a barren woman.


    Another way to put it was a man loved a woman just for bearing him children…


    “Sarah, sometimes I’ll hear the crying of that child, I kept feeling that he hasn’t left but is hiding from


    me. I will dream of him very often. I’ve lost count of how many nights I lost sleep over the loss of this


    child. This child had absolutely traumatized me.”


    As Emily said thest sentence, she really couldn’t bear it and started to cry. The tears flowed down


    her cheeks and down her chin and onto the carpet.


    There was no trace of him, it just slipped through her fingers.


    From the beginning to the end, Sarah only said a couple of words. Perhaps she doesn’t know what to


    say.


    “In fact, I know all that you just said.”


    Sarah couldn’t help but say what she truly felt. It had been a difficult topic and always left a lump in the


    throat.


    She couldn’t swallow it anymore and the only way was to spit it out.


    “You know?” Emily looked surprised, she thought that Sarah doesn’t know these.


    “Yes, I know it all.” She nodded as she looked simply at the surprised Emily.


    And within these, Sarah shrugged her shoulders andughed, “Andrew told me and I am aware of it.


    So, you don’t have to tell me all of these again.”


    “Then why didn’t you say just now?”


    “Because… I didn’t want to interrupt you.”


    She was so engrossed in it and if she were to say that she knows about it, then the atmosphere will be


    quiet again and she’d have nothing to say.

    “Sarah, please don’t mind me, I just said these in passing. Actually, I’m really happy that you are


    pregnant. It is really a blessing.”


    Emily didn’t know why she changed her tone and her eyes were red and was even able to smile.


    Sarah said, “I know what you might be thinking and you don’t have to tell me. Everyone has a past, my


    past…”


    In that clear eyes, the night of that man’s heavy breathing shed past her eyes. Sarah’s nervous


    hands started to sweat, “I also have a past, but we can’t go back in time. Why dwell on the past and


    wallow in despair?”


    She was trying to be understanding but it was different for Emily, “But the scars will still remain, Sarah,


    my abdomen has a scar which I don’t dare to reveal. I never wear anything that will reveal my


    abdomen. It is a source of my sorrow. Each time I see it I will get flustered and numb.”


    “That’ why you feel very burdened with life?” Sarah pursed her lips and calmly smiled. “It’s a scar but in


    your heart, that represents your child?”


    Emily frowned at what she said, she became curious and didn’t understand what Sarah meant, “Sarah,


    what are you saying?”


    She wasn’t sure but her tone changed.


    She’s a smart woman, can’t she guess?


    Or was she intentional?


    That was what Andrew left behind and owed her for life. It was enough to imprison and ckmail him


    for life!


    She benefited from it and still wanted to gain other’s sympathy for it. This was the type of woman Emily


    was.


    She will never understand the term ‘Cut your losses’. Sarah suddenly thought of it and felt that these


    were trulyughable.
