Shemaine had to confirm multiple times she was alright before heading to give her statement
On the way, her back was drenched in cold sweat, and her palms were clammy. She tried to calm herself down, but her mind kept replaying articles of crime scenes. She felt this wasn’t just a coincidence, and someone must have come looking for her.
As for who this person was, she knew who it was. The only people she had offended were Samuel’s first love and Eliana, and they were the only rones who would want her to suffer.
When the police asked if she had any recent conflicts with anyone, she hesitated for a few seconds before saying, “Does being harassed by my ex–husband’s fiancée and his mother count?”
The police officer appeared a little stunned “Tell me more about it”
The police officer was quite young, with a unique air only a recent college graduate would have. He took her statement in meticulous detail and did not miss a single point. Had it not been for the fact that Shelmaine was pregnant, the interview might have taken even longer to complete.

The female officer next to him showed a hint of empathy for Shelmaine, though maintaining a rational stance. It was especially when insisted on her giving up on the child.
The female officer was so furious that she slammed the table. “What gives them the right to decide what you should do? The child is yours, after all And you’re divorced,” After completing the statement, Shelmaine left the police station and stayed at a nearby hotel. Being close to the police station gave her a little sense of security, and she felt less

But since she was pregnant, she had to resist the urge. She stayed awake until dawn
There was still no news from the police the next morning. She packed up and went to her studio.
Not long after she arrived, she received several threatening packages, all with unknown addresses. He asked the building management to check the surveillance footage, and once again, it was a man wearing a mask and a hat who had dropped them off at the entrance.
The packages contained various talismans. Superstitious people could be particularly affected by these kinds of things, and even those who weren’t would feel unsettled, especially someone pregnant like Shelmaine.
With all these incidents piling up, her condition visibly worsened. Her health wasn’t great to begin with, and she had been taking injections situation only made things worse.

As a result, she ended up back in the hospital. Things were even more serious this time as she showed signs of a possible miscarriage. When Beatrix heard the news, she rushed to the hospital to keep Shelmaine company. But since she wasn’t a legal guardian, she couldn’t sign any forms on Shelmaine’s behalf. Shemaine had fallen unconscious, and Beatrix didn’t know anyone else in Shelmaine’s family. She had no choice but to call every contact on Shelmaine’s phone, eventually reaching Isabelle.
Upon learning about shelmaine’s situation, Isabelle rushed to the hospital. It would take her at least three or four hours to get here.
There was nothing Isabelle could do on the road except try to hurry, so she stayed in contact with Beatrix over the phone, instructing her to sign the forms and follow the doctor’s advice.
When Isabelle finally arrived at the hospital, she was informed that Shelmaine’s baby hadn’t made it
“What about my friend? How is she?” Isabelle asked urgently.
“She hasn’t woken up. We’re still monitoring her condition,” the doctor said, speaking through his mask.
Beatrix was in a daze as she couldn’t believe what she was hearing “If Boss finds out, she’ll be devastated to death!”
Isabelle snapped, “Don’t talk about death!”Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
