In the vast space, it suddenly emptied, leaving only her alone.
Evelyn stared at the bloody wound on her palm, hanging her head down in misery, and murmured to herself, "He is not Charlie's son, he is yours..."

When Evelyn returned to her room, Chester was not there.
She dared not check if he was in the main bedroom next door, but curled up on her own bed, wrapping herself in the quilt.
She once thought that they would never see each other again in this life.
When she first found out she was pregnant, she impulsively thought about looking for him at all costs.
But in the end, she didn't, and instead quietly went abroad, found a place where no one knew, and gave birth to the child.
The joy of becoming a mother for the first time washed away all her sadness. As a mother, she grew stronger. She looked at the baby in the swaddling clothes but suddenly couldn't help it and burst into tears. After crying all night, the next day she boarded a flight back to her country.
