After leaving the crematory, Flossie Wright led Helen Wright onto Main Street.
The driver was busy and couldn’t take them.
They had no choice but to hail a taxi themselves.
In fact, Flossie could have taken the bus with no problem, but considering Helen Wright’s health, a taxi was a safer option.
Helen Wright, who had been following behind Flossie, stood by the roadside for a while before finally approaching her and calling out softly.
"Hmm?" Flossie raised her eyebrows and glanced at her.
"That..." Helen Wright opened her mouth and then hung her head again.
"What is it?"
Flossie put her hands in her pockets, her voice growing colder.
After the previous day’s events, she really didn’t want to have much to do with Helen Wright.
It was apparent that Helen Wright saw her as a lifeline, but often, being that lifeline, one would inadvertently shoulder some burdens as if they were "obligations".
Only you can do this.
Only you can help me.
Therefore, they took it for granted that you should extend a hand.
And, if you refuse, it will cause them to hold a grudge against you.
Flossie did not want to be that kind of unlucky person.
After hesitating for a while, Helen Wright finally let out a breath, her faint voice hardly concealing her resolve, "I want to get an abortion."
"You’ve made up your mind?" Flossie was quite surprised.
"Yeah." Helen Wright nodded honestly.
It wasn’t so much that she had made up her mind.
She simply had no other choice.
Unable to reach Benjamin Murphy, unable to cope with the Murphy Family, and even lacking the courage to come clean to Regan Wright at home.
She hadn’t slept for three whole days.
Exhausted in body and mind, her only option was to compromise.
This is reality, a reality that kills without spilling blood.
If she revealed the truth, she would have to face the danger of being abandoned by Regan Wright, but she didn’t have the courage for that.
As for coming clean to the Murphy Family, she had thought about it, but that, too, would be a risky move.
What if they didn’t acknowledge the situation?
It would only tarnish her reputation.
Afterward...
If the outcome was good, then she could put her mind at ease, but if it wasn’t, and the scandal spread, future prospects of marriage would be extremely challenging.
Ultimately, she didn’t trust Benjamin Murphy’s feelings for her enough.
Compared to wealth and prestige, would Benjamin Murphy choose her?
All of it was a puzzle, an untouchable unknown. When there was no one to back her up, she dared not tread carelessly.
It was a characteristic formed from an early age, not something that could be changed in a short period.
"Going to the hospital now?"
Flossie asked indifferently.
"Yeah." Helen Wright nodded, suppressing the nervousness in her heart. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "Sis, I’m sorry about the past."
Her apology was heartfelt.
After careful reflection, she genuinely felt that Flossie’s silence about her pregnancy was already a merciful act.
Not to mention...
Accompanying her to get the abortion.
Honestly, if she were alone, she really didn’t know what to do, and was even too scared to go through with the abortion.
With Flossie there, it was like taking a reassuring pill, and her mood was much more settled.
Flossie responded nonchalantly.
Without offering forgiveness or ridicule, Helen Wright couldn’t guess what Flossie was thinking. After pondering for a moment, she lowered her head with confusion and nervousness in her heart.
Not long after, Flossie spotted a taxi approaching and raised her hand to hail it.
