When we got to City Hall, the clerk handed us a pile of documents. “Have you settled how to divide the assets?”
Snatching up the pen, Bryce immediately signed. “The house goes to Margaret, and there’s no need to split the savings anyway; she’s broke and barely has any money.”
Standing beside him, Tabitha nodded and said coldly, “Getting a house for nothing just by divorcing, Margaret, you’ve got some nerve.”
I kept silent and signed my name with no expression.
As soon as both of us finished signing, Bryce let out a breath of relief. Then he rushed me straight to the hospital.
Suddenly, Tabitha turned to me. “If the doctor asks anything, you have to say you’re aborting the baby by choice!”
“Otherwise, my son can take back that house anytime he wants!”
Swallowing my disgust, I nodded in agreement. After all, I had no intention of keeping the baby.
Looking over the ultrasound report, the doctor pushed his glasses up and said, “You’re three months along. The baby’s growing well, and it’s the one you’ve been trying to have for years.”
“Are you absolutely sure you want an abortion?”
“Of course!” Bryce blurted out. “As long as the abortion can be done right away, I’ll pay whatever it costs!”
