Victoria was taken aback.
Matilda Murphy lifted her head slightly, "If I remember correctly, you were initially Shawn Clegg's fiancée, isn't your baby Shawn's child? What's going on? Now that Shawn's fate is unknown, is Hank Clegg trying to take over his place?"
Victoria was stupefied.
Indeed, Matilda Murphy and many others still thought that her baby was Shawn's.
She didn't know how to respond to Matilda Murphy.
The story between her and Hank Clegg was too long and complicated; she couldn't explain it all in a single sentence.
"What should I do?" she tried controlling her tears as she took a deep breath, "I miss my baby so much… Hank Clegg's departure last night was terrifying. Will he hurt the baby or frighten them? They must also be scared without anyone to see..."
Matilda Murphy quietly watched Victoria.
After a while, she suddenly lifted her hand to wipe away the tears at Victoria's eyes.
