Chapter 188

William's question jogged Joyce's memory. She recalled the incident he was referring to. He had only been about seven or eight at the time. Donald had been involved with another woman, and she came to the house with her pregnancy test. Joyce had that woman move into one of the Lewises' properties in the suburbs. She even arranged for people to take care of her. But two weeks later, the woman had a miscarriage. Back then, William had witnessed Joyce adding something to the woman's food to induce a miscarriage. "What are you doing, Mom?" he had asked. She hugged him and replied, "William, everyone in the world makes mistakes. Your dad made one this time. That baby shouldn't exist. Since it's doomed to a life of tragedy, it shouldn't even be born. I'm saving it!" This incident occurred such a long time ago that even Joyce had forgotten all about it. She never thought William would still remember it. He even mimicked her actions as well! The thought of that filled her with fear.
