On Christmas night, I experienced frequent contractions, signaling premature labor.
I called 99 times, but Xavion, my boyfriend of seven years, never answered.
Until the last call, when his secretary Melody picked up.
Her voice was sultry as she cuddled up to Xavion, completely disregarding that I could hear:
"Xavion, I'm carrying your baby. What are we going to do?"
Tears streaming down my face, I looked at the doctor.
"This child, I want to terminate it right now. I don't want it anymore."

On Christmas Eve, I terminated my pregnancy at seven months

After hearing Primrose's story, I exclaimed, "That's quite dramatic!"


Primrose clapped her hands excitedly, "Dramatic? It's more like a guilty pleasure story!"


I raised an eyebrow, "What's so satisfying about it?"


Primrose grinned smugly, "Watching the cheating man and his mistress get their just deserts – now that's satisfying!"


Then, she looked at me with a guilty expression, "Jade, it's not that I didn't want to tell you before. It's just that man's intimidation was terrifying. I didn't dare say anything."


I rolled my eyes, "Well, better late than never."


Primrose instantly breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at me cautiously, "So, do you blame me? For helping Xavion keep it from you before?"


I picked up my glass and raised it to her, "Not at all. In fact, I should thank you. If it weren't for you, I might never have known the truth."


Primrose was instantly moved to tears, throwing her arms around me, "Jade, you're the best!"
