A Heart Given Fully, A Trust Broken Beyond Repair

Synopsis

Hoping for a second child, my husband Osbert Foster held me close night after night. He said, "Astrid, let's have a girl." When the pregnancy test came back positive, he celebrated by filling the entire city skyline with fireworks.

Her glare dropped to my gently swelling stomach. She added, "You already had one bastard, and now you're carrying another?" I instinctively shielded my belly, panic rising, I asked, "What are you talking about? I'm legally married!"
