DEMI
"Are you okay?" Anna asks, coming in after Ashley leaves my room. I dry my eyes and sit upright. "What did Ashley say?"
"What else would he say? He's livid that I didn't tell him about the baby and partly blames me for his pain." I sniffle and wipe my nose. "This can't be real, Anna. My baby is gone. I have already lost too much at the hands of this family and now my own child was taken from me." Anna's arm wraps around me while I choke back my tears.
"Asher did this. He overheard me that night. I felt it in my gut. I thought the worst thing he could do was reveal my pregnancy to the family or at the very least, blackmail me with exposing it." Tears clog my throat. "I didn't think he hated me this much. How could he kill my baby?"
