Chapter 6

The phone suddenly chimed, interrupting my train of thought.

I opened it to find two videos sent by River.

In the videos, Garrison was holding an abortion certificate and a marriage license.

In the background, an audio recording of my confrontation with Melody was playing.

"Correct! Thanks for donating your liver, but I never used it at all. I just threw it to some stray dog!!"

As he heard these words, Garrison's pupils suddenly constricted.

He seemed to be in disbelief, listening to it over and over again.

Then, as if struck by an icy hammer, his whole being fell into a deep tremor.

"It's impossible... How could this be?"

He stared at the voice recorder in utter disbelief, muttering.

"Garrison, Meadow knows you lied to her, and to save you, she terminated your child."

River sounded particularly dejected, as if filled with guilt.

"We're not even human! How is this any different from torturing her to death?"

Garrison's body swayed, nearly losing his balance.
