I happened to find my wife’s pregnancy test report in her bag, and I was overjoyed. After ten years of marriage, I thought we were finally going to have a child together.
I pretended I hadn’t seen it and quietly waited for her to tell me the good news herself.
But several days passed, and my wife still hadn’t told me she was pregnant.
Then, late one night, I heard her talking to her assistant on the balcony.
“Haowei, I’m sorry... We can’t keep your baby. I’ve already had an abortion.”
It hit me like a bolt of lightning.
