It turned out that the sincerity she carefully treasured was just a toy in his eyes; the future she looked forward to was just the Kept Woman in his plan that should not be seen in the light ; her unborn child was just a stain that needed to be removed in his eyes; even losing her child and losing her qualification to be a mother became the best outcome in his eyes.
When she first left home and was working as a waitress at a hotel, she met Liam, who had been drinking so much that he had a stomach bleed. He took Liam to the hospital and even paid for his medical expenses. From then on, Liam frequently appeared by her side and launched a fierce pursuit of her. The daughter of a wealthy family had never seen such a young man's passionate feelings, and soon they were together.
She remembered that last winter, when she had a cold and a fever, Liam stayed with her all night, changing the towel on her forehead every half hour; she remembered that on her birthday, he said he had saved three months' salary and bought her a bracelet, saying "When I have money in the future, I will change it for you with jewels "; she remembered that she casually said she liked the magnolia flowers downstairs, and he went to the flower shop to buy a bunch the next day, clumsily inserted it in a mineral water bottle, and said " As long as Clara likes it, it's worth it no matter how expensive it is."
Those details that once moved her heart to tears, when she thought about it now, were all poison wrapped in sugar , a game of playing house in which rich young masters pretended to be poor .
I don’t know how long it took, but the footsteps in the ward gradually faded away. Liam must have left.
Clara then slowly opened her eyes. The ceiling was the pale white color unique to hospitals, which hurt her eyes.
She raised her hand and touched her lower abdomen . It was empty, and the newly formed little life was no longer there.
She didn't cry or get hysterical, but just looked at the ceiling calmly until the nurse came in to change the dressing and told her softly, "The baby was not saved, and the probability of getting pregnant in the future is very low." She just said "hmm" softly, her voice so calm as if she was talking about someone else's business.
