But when she saw me trying to stick Ruth's photo onto the urn, she couldn't say a word.
"How could this be?" Her eyelashes trembled, and she hurriedly called Eddie to come back.
Yet he wasn't the only one who came back. Angela tagged along.
"Regina, Eddie tells me you like puppies.
"I picked this puppy for you. Do you like it?"
Angela's face was full of flattery, and she was about to stuff the puppy into Regina's arms.
But Regina pulled a long face and ignored her.
"Eddie, what were you doing last night? Do you know..."
She wanted to tell Eddie Ruth was dead.
But before she could say anything, Angela's dog kicked over the urn I had placed on the table.
The ceramic urn fell on the marble and shattered into pieces.
Ruth's ashes were scattered everywhere.
I was extremely angry. I raised my hand and slapped Angela hard.
Eddie protected her and pushed me away.
"Gloria, are you crazy?
"So what if it's shattered? It's just a bottle. I'll buy you another one! Who gave you the right to hit her?"
Eddie was furious.
Angela smiled and held her stomach while pretending to mediate.
"Eddie, don't get upset with Gloria for me!
"I got pregnant with your baby without her consent. Of course, she hates me."
