My name is Margaret Turner. After my daughter, Sarah McDowell, becomes pregnant, I am shocked to find that I can hear the thoughts of the baby in her womb. "Grandma, please don't let Mommy get the prenatal checkup! If they learn I'm a girl, Dad will make her get rid of me. I don't want to die!" I can't believe what I'm hearing. Knowing that my son‑in‑law, Jeremy O'Brien, works at a hospital and can use his connections to learn the baby's gender, I do everything in my power to keep Sarah from being examined. But three months later, doctors confirm that Sarah's baby has a congenital deformity and is fated to be born disabled. Sarah is devastated, and guilt consumes me. Suddenly, I hear my granddaughter's voice again. "It's all because of Dad. He cheated with that nurse and returned home soaked in her cheap perfume. As soon as Mommy breathed it in, I was fated to come into the world deformed. Poor Mommy…" Rage explodes inside me. Without a second thought, I storm into Jeremy's workplace, determined to catch him in the act. I don't expect to walk in on a critical heart surgery he is performing. My intrusion throws the room into chaos, and the patient dies on the operating table. The patient's family loses control, and they cause a violent scene in the hospital. In the mayhem, Jeremy is killed on the spot. When Sarah learns what I've done, she is consumed by rage and declares she wants nothing more to do with me. At that moment, my granddaughter's voice echoes in my mind once more. "Mommy is heartbroken and needs time to heal. Grandma, please don't make things worse. Mommy will be okay after she rests." Hearing this, I force myself to stay calm. But that very night, word arrives that Sarah has thrown herself into a river and ended her life. Shattered by grief, I eventually make the same tragic choice. As my final breath fades, my granddaughter's chilling laugh echoes in my ears. When I open my eyes again, I find myself back on the day her voice first crept into my mind.

Chapter 1

松浦悠斗(まつうら ゆうと)がまた後輩の藤井胡桃(ふじい くるみ)のことで、私に離婚を切り出してきた。

私は断らなかった。

彼は指輪を外そうとする手をぴくりと震わせ、鼻で笑うして言った。

「今度は何のつもりだ?

言っておくが、あの子を傷つけでもしたら、ただじゃおかないからな」

私は淡々と離婚協議書にサインをして、静かに告げた。

「安心して。あなたのことは、もうきっぱり諦めただけだから」

私がそう告げると、悠斗の顔に浮かんでいた嘲笑が、一瞬で固まった。

彼は、私がまた泣いたり騒いだりして引き止めるだろうと、身構えていたのだ。

もっと酷い言葉で言い返す準備までしていたのに。私の落ち着き払った態度は、まったくの予想外だったようだ。

悠斗は無意識に、外したばかりの結婚指輪を指で弄っていた。

そして、その指輪を強く握りしめた。

「諦めた、だと?」

彼は信じられないというように、嘲りを込めて鼻で笑った。

「若葉(わかば)、お前がそんなことを言うのは、これが初めてじゃないだろ。

今度はどんな手を使うつもりだ?駆け引きか?」

悠斗は私の目をじっと見つめ、嘘の欠片でも見つけようとしていた。

でも私は静かに顔を上げて彼を見つめ返しただけ。その瞳は、まるで赤の他人を見るかのように、何の感情も映していなかった。

私の無関心さが、悠斗から余裕を奪ったらしい。彼は今まで経験したことのない焦燥に苛まれているようだった

悠斗は私に詰め寄った。侮辱されたかのような怒りで、声が思わず大きくなる。

「言っておくが、二度と胡桃に手を出すな!

この前みたいに、またあの子に付きまとうつもりなら、容赦しないからな!」

「容赦しない?」

私はサインを済ませた離婚協議書を、悠斗の前にすっと押し出した。

「もうサインはしたわ」

私の声は相変わらず冷静で、何の感情もこもっていなかった。

「あなたの荷物は何も触ってないから。秘書にでも取りに来させて。

これから先、あなたも、あの女も、私には一切関係ない」

悠斗はその場で固まった。彼は私を見て、何か言おうと口を開いたけど、結局は虚勢を張った警告の言葉しか出てこなかった。

「今日の言葉、絶対に忘れるなよ!」
