When my gaze landed on Ashley, there was a stillness in the air as I watched her mouth open in surprise.

"W-What are you doing here?" she asked outrightly,"H-How did you know I was here?"

I licked my lips as I struggled on how to answer her questions but in my heart, I knew that there was only one way this would end.

I had to tell her who I was.

I had Daniel check on her frequently for the past few days as he gave me reports on how she was faring but when he told me that according to the gossip he heard about from the bustling nurses, she had a miscarriage.

That sent me spiraling.

A miscarriage?

Why didn't she tell me? Was it mine?

Those questions kept haunting me until I couldn't bear it anymore. Daniel warned me about going. It was as if he knew what I was going to do. He tried his best but I had to do what was right. I had to be sure that it wasn't Lady Eugene playing around.
