Tabithaâs heart melted at the sight of the little girl. She suppressed the sadness that surged within her throat and replied, âOkay.â
Reaching out, she touched Lunaâs little head, feeling the girlâs thin, soft hair beneath her palm.
When she thought of the child she lost, Tabitha couldnât help wanting to cry.
She didnât know the gender of her baby, and she couldnât help wondering if, like Luna, it would be as cute.

Tabitha stared blankly at Luna, and tears suddenly fell without warning.
âWhy is there such a lovely baby in the world? If my child hadnât died, could she have smiled at me, kissed me, and hugged me like this?â she thought.
âTabby, donât cry,â pleaded the girl.
Luna extended her soft hand and wiped away Tabithaâs tears. Though her actions seemed clumsy, they profoundly softened Tabithaâs heart.
Unable to control her emotions, Tabitha covered her mouth, fearing she might startle the child with a sudden outburst of sobs.
Chadwick, witnessing her distress, looked down at her with concern. He turned to Colette and suggested, âWhy donât you take the child out from here for now?â
Witnessing Tabithaâs deep sadness, Colette felt a twinge of sorrow in her heart and swiftly escorted Luna out of the ward.
As she attempted to close the door behind her, she noticed Chadwick pulling Tabitha into his arms.
Colette was surprised by his gesture, and her eyes involuntarily glanced at the bracelet on Tabithaâs wrist. Despite her surprise, she maintained a calm expression and closed the door quietly.

Malcolm exited his ward upon hearing Chadwick and the others knock on Tabithaâs door.
He remained outside, overhearing the little girlâs cute voice emanating from the room. Her sound, like a sharp blade, pierced his heart, numbing it profoundly.
Through the glass, he observed the glow of motherly love on Tabithaâs tender face, making Malcolm feel like an unforgivable sinner.
He had deprived Tabitha of the right to be a mother, and he had caused the death of their child.
In an instant, sadness and numbness penetrated his heart, rendering his limbs stiff, and he found himself unable to take a step forward.
Luna looked up at Malcolm, and as if frightened by him, she hid behind Colette.
Colette whispered to Luna, âThis gentleman is Tabbyâs husband. You donât have to be scared of him.â
âTabby is so gentle. Why would she have such a fierce husband?â Luna then asked in a hushed tone, âWill he bully Tabby?â
Malcolm immediately softened his expression, attempting to emulate. Tabithaâs gentleness and make himself seem less unapproachable.
Just then, a suppressed cry emanated from the ward.
Chadwick gently embraced Tabitha and comforted her in a low voice, âTabby, cry if you want. Donât suppress it.â
After her miscarriage, Tabitha had been calm since she regained consciousness and was gentle and polite to everyone, not shedding a tear, Concerned about the impact of suppressing her sorrow, Chadwick brought Luna with him that day in an attempt to help her open her heart.
Tabithaâs tears flowed uncontrollably, and she sobbed like a homeless. beast.
In her entire life, she had committed no terrible deeds, and the harshness of life perplexed her.
