Chapter 0273

When she did not say anything for a few minutes, I decided to go ahead and give her the message I was

supposed to deliver earlier.

“Evelyn, this may sound a little weird, but I had an opportunity to talk to the Moon Goddess several

months ago.”

“Because you are the chosen one,” she said, not lifting her head off of the table.

Ok, it is definitely the jailhouse newsfeed.

“Yes. She gave me a message that I was supposed to give to you when I saw you. I am sorry that I did not give you the message earlier, but everything sort of happened really quickly…”

“What was the message?” Evelyn asked. Her head remained sideways on the table, but her tone was

curious

“She said that you sometimes ask her a question when you pray. It is usually the same question, and she

wanted to answer it for you.”

Evelyn sat up. “What… what was the answer?”

“Yes, she will and more.”

Evelyn began smiling and crying at the same time.

“I assume you understand the message?” I asked curiously.

Evelyn nodded. “Yes. At least I think so. When I first found out about Brady seeing someone, I got mad. I would pray to the Moon Goddess that it was not true, and that if it was true, she would take..

I

from him. And then, at the end of each prayer, I would ask a question. I asked it rhetorically, but I asked if

every time.”

“What was the question?” Charlotte asked curiously.

Evelyn looked down again. “I… I don’t know if I should say….”

“Oh, please do,” Charlotte said. “Now I’m really curious.”

“I would ask whether Brady’s wh ore could ever love my pup as much as I do.”

“Ok…. other than the use of the word ‘wh ore’ that isn’t too bad…” I responded.

“You only think that because I ended up being Brady’s wh ore, not you,” Charlotte commented.

Evelyn looked up. “Yes… but don’t you get it? It is a sign.”

We both looked at Evelyn like she was crazy. “Huh?”

“The answer.” Evelyn explained, starting to seem excited. “The answer was that Brady’s wh ore will love

my pup as much as I do and more.”

“Why is that making you seem excited?” I asked.

“Because….. Because it is also an answer to my current prayer.”

She looked at Charlotte again. “Look, I know I have made some mistakes. A lot of them. And I am paying for them. And I have also called you both some really horrible names. But deep down, I will always be a mother who wants the best for her pups. Sammy tells me how much he loves you. He told me that the

Moon Goddess said that you were his gift.”

Charlotte began to soften. “Yes….”

“So…. I know this is a lot to ask. I know it is. But… I don’t want my parents to raise this pup. I want him. raised with Sammy. I want them to grow up together and be siblings. That is why I asked you to come down today, too, Charlotte. I wanted to ask you if you would be willing to consider adopting my unborn pup, but I was scared to ask you, and the same question was going through my mind again… only without the wh ore part. When I put my head down, I was thinking about whether I could ask you and Brady… and whether you could possibly love my pup the way that I would. And then Lily chose that moment to tell me

about the message.

Charlotte and I exchanged looks.

“I think that is the only time I have ever been grateful to be called a wh ore,” Charlotte joked.

And that is how Charlotte and Brady came to adopt Evelyn’s pup.
