"Is what she said true? You've been lying to my cousin this whole time?"

Arabella paid her no mind, casually dropping another bombshell. "In the years after you married Vance's cousin, you became pregnant five or six times but could never carry any of the babies to term. That's because you had too many pregnancies and abortions in your youth, to the point where you began to suffer from habitual miscarriages."
"You... Shut your mouth! Don't you say another word!" Xiang Qiufu was genuinely terrified now. She had hidden this secret so well—not even her husband or her late parents-in-law knew. How could this girl, barely a teenager, possibly know?
