He didn't know she really had a baby in her belly.
Even she didn't know…
Initially, in order to climb up the social ladder, she deceived David Benington with a fake pregnancy.
She thought that once she married David, she would somehow "miscarry" the child, but she had no idea that David would discover the truth before then.
What surprised her even more was that her fake pregnancy turned into a real one.
Her planned fake miscarriage became a real one.
It can't be said that Annie Lawrence had any deep affection for this unexpected child.
After all, it was only then that she found out she was indeed pregnant.
The child was still very small, only over two months, not even at the stage of feeling the baby move.
So she didn't have too deep feelings.
However, every woman can never really pretend as if a miscarriage never really happened.
She was, more or less, a bit sad in her heart.
What made her sadder and angrier was that David actually abandoned her in the hospital.
