Chapter 74 They Were Leaving Her

She couldn't escape the blame for Courtney's current state. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Courtney smiled bitterly. "She actually betrayed me, Lilipad... Why did she do that?"

In the end, Lilian could clearly hear the sobbing and despair in her tone.

Lilian swallowed, and her eyes were full of tears. She tightly held her phone and opened her mouth, but still couldn't make a sound.

After a long time, Courtney's voice returned to normal. She said, "I want to turn myself in. Do you want to come see me for the last time?"

"If you come, just knock once. If you don't... just hang up."

She couldn't bear this torture. She would rather go to prison and atone for her sins than continue to live in pain.

This way, she wouldn't burden more people.

Lilian held her phone, not hanging up, nor tapping the screen.

Courtney was also a victim. She shouldn't have endured all of this.

But kindhearted couldn't live an easy life after making a mistake.

"What do you mean?" Courtney smiled bitterly.

Lilian raised her stiff fingers, and after agonizing for a long time in her heart, she gently tapped the screen.

Courtney finally smiled. For a moment, her laughter was as clear and hearty as before.

Lilian hung up the phone, stood up, and ran out of the villa.

By the time Fabiana came out with the chicken soup, Lilian had already disappeared.

Lilian took a taxi straight to the police station, afraid that she would be too late and never see Courtney again.

She arrived at the police station across the street and immediately saw the familiar motorcycle. Courtney was still wearing her casual clothes, straddling the motorcycle, and smoking.

Lilian paid the fare and hurriedly ran towards Courtney.

She arrived breathlessly by Courtney's side. Courtney extinguished the half-smoked cigarette in her hand, grinning and looking Lilian up and down.

Courtney seemed to be a different person from the one on the phone.

She was still so lively and carefree.

"Did you dress up to come see me?" Courtney joked.

Lilian looked down at her outfit, a white sweater, and white pants. Wasn't this her most ordinary attire?

"Just kidding." Courtney pinched her cheek out of habit, and then her gaze shifted to Lilian's lower abdomen.

Courtney raised her hand and touched Lilian's lower abdomen. "Is the baby behaving?"

Lilian stared at her blankly, speechless.

Courtney didn't blame her, and just like before, Courtney chatted about everyday life, which made her even more uncomfortable than being scolded.

Seeing Courtney's hopeful gaze, Lilian forced out a smile and nodded slightly.

The baby was very well-behaved. Even when he was aborted, he didn't cry or make a fuss, not a single sound.

Courtney wiped away the tears at the corner of Lilian's eye with her hand. "Why are you crying? Crying too much is not good for the baby. When I come out, will he be able to walk?"

Lilian tightly pursed her lips, tears running down her face even more intensely.

The person she loved the most caused her two farewells.

One farewell was to her child.

The other farewell was to her best friend.

They were both leaving her.
