Chapter 0084 "She once had a child?" I thought to myself and my body stiffened a bit. Surely never expected that update.
When could this have happened? Was it during those three interminable years when she had vanished without a trace? But despite the amount of questions I had, I still tried to act composed and I schooled my expression into one of indifference.
I focused on the almost invisible ripples forming on the surface of my coffee. as I slowly stirred the steaming liquid.

To be honest, I was mostly not interested in hearing any stories about her murky past even though at spoint before, I used to be interested in it. What purpose would it serve to dredge up all of those stories anyway? In the background of where we both sat I could hear voices and clinks of cutlery, but it all faded like far away murmurs as Bella's eyes drove like nails. into me. Her fingers curled around her own cup and she slowly took a sip before rolling her eyes.
"I'm going to tell you anyway," she shrugged.
I also shrugged as I sipped my own coffee, turning my attention to the view outside the café window, I tried to lose myself in the bustling cityscape, hoping Bella would take the hint and sparethe sordid details of her tale.
"Isaac deceivedinto eloping abroad with him and shortly after that I found out pregnant." Though outwardly impassive, I was suddenly hanging on her every word with morbid curiosity.
"We both stayed in a shabby rental we had called home. I even had to survive on terrible... terrible food I tell you. But in spite of the hardships, I still felt happy and proud," she was now looking somewhere far away behind. me, "Knowing I had bravely escaped the shackles of our family's +25 BONUS arrangements and taken cor someone control my life and of my own fate without having to let future.
Did she just say 'our family"? I took a second to scoff silently, but I still listened.
"The good times didn't last however," Bella continued; her voice was growing somber.

I was human too and what she was narrating towas quite sad, that was if it was true. But I mean, she'd chosen him anyway. Maybe I would have been extremely pitful had she been forced on Isaac or vice versa. "Every the cback to the rental, it was to demand money from me. The last the appeared was even a week before my due date." Her voice trembled, but she pressed on. "He ignored all my pleas and took all my remaining money that I'd intended on using for my childbirth. Things got very physical on that particular day and I got pushed to the ground..." She frowned like she was reliving the memory.
*...I started bleeding immediately after I'd collapsed, powerless on the floor and needing urgent help but he didn't even bat an eye at me. He just walked away!" She gestured the 'walked away' with a flick of her hands in the air.
"By the tthe neighbors found me, I had already lost consciousness.
And when I cto, I was already lying on an operating table, completely weak. But the ordeal wasn't over, the doctors toldthe baby insidehad died, but I still needed to deliver the dead fetus urgently to save my own life." A lump worked its way up my throat as Bella described her excruciating ordeal of her labor which got prolonged because the stillborn was unable to move up the birth canal on its own.

"Like other mothers, I went through a painful and long labor, even longer because a dead fetus does not move through the birth canal on its own. I the birth had just beca mother and then immediately lost my child," she whispered and I saw her hands clench tighter around her cup that I thought it was going to break in her grip any second. X
