157 The fateful night

Rachel's heart was pounding as she looked at the woman in the wheelchair, the memories of that stormy night flooding back to her. She couldn't believe that the woman, who had entrusted her with her baby all those years ago, would appear in front of her like this. Fear and confusion clouded her mind as she wondered what would happen if the woman recognized her and asked her to give her child back.

Rachel shuddered again and again.

How could she give her the girl she had raised with her sweat and blood?

Rachel had thought she would never see this woman again in her life after twenty years.

She was so wrong.

The woman appeared in front of her and was gawking at her with her big, big eyes.

Fear welled up within her.

In the past, Rachel had tried for a baby but couldn't conceive. She was overcome with maternal emotion when she first held Abigail in her arms.
