The crowd went wild!
“Yeah! Get rid of her, bro!”
“Some wives just make their husbands
miserable!”
“Go for it!”
Tiffany blushed, head tilted down, she
grabbed the ring

She smiled. There was no way that she was
depressed.
I put the phone down and asked the nurse
about my condition.
As I got to the door, I heard my mother–in-
law on the phone: “I’m sending you the
pictures. The baby is gone. The doctor said
we can bury it. Get here soon.”
“She is very fragile right now.”
My mother–in–law uses the loud speaker, like
all old people.
Jack was very impatient.
“Mom! Stop. She is acting for a hospital. She
does not have any shame.”
“She is a big liar. Where is the baby from? Is
