When Mr. and Mrs. Adam Jones arrived on the island, Elly Campbell glanced over at Harry Hall with a nonchalant air. Seeing his indifferent expression, as if Helen Melendy didn't matter to him at all, Elly's emotions slowly grew complicated.
After a moment of thought, she spoke up to Harry, "Don't be too harsh on Helen. It's not as if she really wanted to abort the child, but fate would have it otherwise. She was helpless."
Recalling the repressed sobs she heard when she left the hospital room, Elly couldn't help but feel heartache for Helen Melendy.
She knew that Helen, even though she was stubborn and proud, saying she wanted to terminate the pregnancy, might not have the heart to actually do it.
As they once again mentioned the child that Helen had aborted, Harry's hand gripping the fishing rod subconsciously tightened, but his face remained indifferently composed throughout.
