"You should be grateful for the attention of your beautiful wife."Elena, who loved hearing beautiful compliments from her mother-in-law, blushed.

Half a year had passed without a single word from Amelie.The same question popped up every day, every week, and also at the turn of the month. With each passing month, Jonathan would ask himself whether Amelie was still holding on to the fruit of their love and find out what stage of development the fetus was in with each passing month. According to his calculations, Amelie should have given birth this month.Jonathan took a deep breath as he thought of all the bad things Amelie could do. She might choose to abort the pregnancy.
