Therefore, the money was for my delivery and emergency use. I never used it for other purposes.
Trent begged me the whole night.
The next day, the debt collector called me again.
“Mrs. Gage, you are about to give birth. Take care of yourself,”
Along with the phone call came some photos of people who had died miserably.
My heart skipped a beat.}}
These people are monsters.
Too many people died in their hands,‘X
I stroked my big belly nervously.
“What do I do?
‘I can’t let my child get hurt. I’ve been through so much pain while pregnant with this child. Now that I’m finally about to give birth, everything must go well.
“Or we can go to your parents. They’re in their sixties and have a pension. Just think about it ”
“No.”
My parents were too old to go through this.
I got carried away by anxiety.
Trent suddenly returned home with bruises all over his facell
It was obvious that he had been beaten…
As soon as he got home, he knelt down in front of me.!!
“Honey. Please help me this time. Only you can help me, otherwise.
He looked at me and paused.
“Otherwise, I will diela
My stomach ached slightly, and my phone kept ringing.
“Mrs. Gage. Did you see your husband? Do you want your baby to die as well?
“Think about it carefully.”
I held my stomach tightly, my mind in a mess.
Suddenly, I yelled into the phone.
“Ti pay! Just leave my family alone.”
My husband smiled. He hugged me excitedly and kissed my face
“Honey, you are the best. I knew you would help. You still care about me.”
Losing 200,000 dollars was such a blow for me that I lay in bed, sulking.
Trent’s mother said that she was sick, but she didn’t tell me what the illness was.!!
She only claimed that it would cost a fortune.
She asked me to use the betrothal money to cover her medical bills when I got pregnant not long after 8
I asked her what illness she had. She fogged me off and never mentioned it again.
I just didn’t expect her to egg Trent to borrow money online after she failed to get money from me.
I thought it was finally over. I had to lose that money to avoid a disaster.”
The most urgent thing for me now is my baby. I can always make money.
However, I got another call in a few days.!!
It was from another debt collector
He demanded another 200,000 dollars.}
I broke down
Trent knelt in front of me again and pleaded with me.
But this time, I refused him firmly
I hit him
“Tell me. Last time you spent the money on me and your mother. What’s about this time?”
He knelt in front of me the whole time, refusing to tell the truth.!!
My sister–in–law, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time, suddenly showed up at my house.!!
1:35 PM D
orry. Yara. Trent borrowed the money
Im sorry.
For her?”
for me
I realized something. My sister–in–law’s son almost beat someone to death last year!
They compensated that person with 300,000 dollars in the end.
My sister–in–law came to me back then and asked me to lend her some money to bail her son out.
I refused her. I thought her son should be punished for his mistake. Besides, 300,000 dollars was a lot to me!
At last, I only agreed to lend her 50,000 dollars and never spoke of the matter again.X
It turned out that Trent borrowed another 200,000 dollars to help his sister.”
I got furious this time. I could understand him when he said he needed the money for his mother.
But this time, he took out a loan to bail out a criminal.
How could he do this to me and my unborn baby?
I was so enraged that I slapped Trent in the face!
