After Giving Birth to the Child, My Husband and I Divorced QuicklyChapter 1
In my first month of pregnancy, a fortune teller said I was carrying a girl.
My mother-in-law insisted I get an abortion.
I refused, and my husband backed me up, saying a girl would still be our child.

"Rachel, what are you thinking about?"

Sara froze for a moment, then grabbed a mask and hat and rushed out.
She came back in less than ten minutes, her brows furrowed, eyes burning with anger, and lips pressed tightly together.
She chugged down a bottle of water before handing me her phone.
