You say it first~ George, who was still in a happy state, showed a good gentlemanly manner.

In order not to burden the family, I aborted the child... Mary spoke calmly, but her voice became quieter as she went behind.

As a Christian, she had just lamented the death of the daughters of other believers, but who knew that now she had killed a little life with her own hands.

This approach made her feel a little guilty.

This... After George heard what his wife said clearly, the happy look on his face disappeared.

He looked up and stared at his wife's familiar face, with some disbelieving ears.

At this time, Grandma Connie, who happened to come to the door and was about to knock on the door, also heard what her daughter said.

The hand knocking on the door paused...

After letting out a long sigh, Grandma Connie turned around and retreated with a complicated expression.

However, she was in a daze. When she was leaving, she accidentally bumped into a chair in the aisle and made a loud noise.

Missy, go back to bed. Now~

In the room, George, who didn't know how to react, shouted loudly after hearing the movement outside, as if he wanted to vent all the depression in his heart.

Missy, who had played in the hallway in the middle of the night before, somehow took the blame for Grandma Connie.

After a while, there was no sound in the corridor, and George calmed down a little. He looked at his wife and asked, Why?

Now that the matter has come to this, he just wants to hear with his own ears what explanation his wife has.

Obviously the two had discussed it yesterday, and George had clearly expressed that he wanted this child.

There is no reason. Mary shook her head and said calmly, Isn't this great?

From Mary's point of view, having children is her personal matter. Now that I have aborted my child for the sake of my family, I have made even more sacrifices.

The more she thought about it, the more it made sense.

This seems to be the case. Without the burden, Mary kept her job in the church, and George no longer had so much financial pressure.

In addition, George's weekly salary has increased a bit.

Now the couple's combined weekly salary is 800 meters, which is much higher than when George was the highest-paid member of the football team.

Calculating this, the life of the Cooper family looks like it will get better and better.

Just looking at his wife's calm appearance, George felt that she was so strange.

Immediately, without any desire to communicate, he turned his back and lay down on the boat.

On the other side, Grandma Connie, who secretly left the Cooper house, nestled on the sofa as soon as she returned to her own home.

She couldn't figure out why her daughter made such a big decision in private without discussing it with her.

What happened? Grandma Connie. Seeing that the other party seemed to be exhausted when he came back, Mike poured a glass of water and asked with concern: Is it because Mary doesn't believe that stocks can make money? In fact, I can list my running accounts for the past few months and give her a reference first...

Stocks are now considered an emerging industry, and it is normal for people who don’t understand it to have distrust.

It's not about stocks. Grandma Connie interrupted Mike's speech and said, It's Mary. She aborted the child...

Grandma Connie is depressed and now wants to find someone to talk to. So she told all the news she had heard before.

How could this happen? Mike also didn't expect Mary to be so decisive this time.

Forget it, don't mention it. Grandma is tired, let's go and rest first. Grandma Connie felt tired when she thought of this terrible thing.

With that said, she got up and walked towards the room. After arriving at the door, she turned around and warned: By the way, let this matter go. Don't mention it at Cooper's house in the future.

Understood~ Mike nodded knowingly.

Sensitive issues like this that concern family members can easily cause family conflicts.

But that night, George, who had always been open-minded and cheerful, still had insomnia.

Then, in the next few days, feeling depressed, he also started to leave early and come home late, often missing family dinners at home.

When the time came to Friday, even Missy discovered that her father had been acting strangely these days.

At dinner time, seeing her father absent again, she asked cautiously: Mom, does daddy not want us anymore?

After hearing the little girl's innocent speech, several pairs of eyes looked at Mary at the same time.

Children with simpler minds are generally more sensitive to changes in the atmosphere at home.

Even little Sheldon, who had never paid much attention to this situation, could see that there was something going on between his parents.

It's nothing... Mary forced a smile and comforted the children: Your father is just busy with work recently, and he will be fine after a while.

Children are simple-minded, very sensitive and easy to deceive.

Sure enough, the Cooper children were all relieved after hearing their mother's explanation.

Only Little Sheldon still looked a little confused.

As far as he knew, the sporting goods store where his father worked had fixed working hours every day, and there was no possibility of working overtime.

Come to think of it, no one would go shopping for sporting goods at night.

However, out of trust in his mother, little Sheldon didn't think much about it.

On the other side, Grandma Connie, who heard Mary's explanation, looked at the other party deeply, shook her head slightly, and said nothing.

Coincidentally, right after dinner at Cooper's house, George came back smelling of alcohol.

Go back to your room and rest~ Mary hurriedly put the children away, then pulled her husband aside and asked, What's going on with you?

George, who was eighty percent drunk, said carelessly: Dale gave me such a big salary increase. I'll go have a drink with him. Is there any problem~

He felt very unhappy about his wife's previous decision in private.

Moreover, George thought seriously about it that night when he suffered from insomnia. He thought that the reason why his wife made that decision was probably because he didn't earn enough money.

Realizing that the responsibility may lie with him made George feel aggrieved and useless.

Therefore, feeling depressed, he could only go out to drink to relieve his sorrow.

Of course, a big part of the reason was that he didn't want to come back and face his wife who had become a stranger.

Even if Dell gives you a salary increase, you shouldn't drink so much with him. Mary knew the reason why her husband was like this.

After scolding the other party, she did not mention the drinking issue anymore, but changed the topic and said: The church is preparing to plan Christmas activities, and I will be very busy this weekend. So, Missy and the others will meet in the next two days. I took care of it for you.

Because the church’s last Halloween event was so successful, Pastor Jeff also asked Mary to plan this Christmas event.

Go and ask Connie if she has time to take care of Missy and the others... George shook his groggy head and said, I have to work overtime in the store on weekends. I have to be worthy of the salary increase Dell gave me.

Why? I gave you a weekly salary increase of 100 and asked you to work overtime on weekends... Mary said angrily.

George's previous weekly salary was 350 meters for five days' work, but now it has been increased to 450 meters for seven days' work.

Calculated based on hourly wages, this is no different than no salary increase.

Therefore, Mary's point of finding fault was right. Just when she wanted to argue with her husband again, she found that he was already snoring.

Weekend, Regina's house.

After another week of practice, the girls were able to coordinate well and sing the new songs.

Just the instrumental aspect. Except for Karen, who plays the drums, the other three girls' musical instrument skills are not up to standard.

Especially Queen Bee Regina, after so long, her guitar skills have not yet started.

We'll talk about the instrumental performance later. Let's go to the recording studio to record the demo first. Mike, who understood the girls' situation, gave the next step of instructions.

There are dedicated musicians in the recording studio to produce background music.

After the master tape comes out, the best thing to do is to have the girls practice playing along with the soundtrack.

Anyway, the school Christmas party is all about the atmosphere, and the professionalism requirements are not that high.
