It's just a child, why won't he give it to her?
Why not just give it to her? This question has been repeating in Atlas Hallow's mind more than once.
Actually, the answer has always been just one: because the woman he married is Charlotte Miller. He hopes that the relationship between the two of them is clean and pure. He can't bear to put a fertilized egg into Charlotte's uterus, as that would mean there is someone else between them, a feeling so terrifying that he can't bear it for even a moment.
Atlas Hallow walked into the hospital ward, turned on his phone, and was struck by the sight of Charlotte Miller's number displayed among the missed calls. She only called once, just once.
Such a proud little girl, she can't find him after one call, so she stops calling?
His fingers gently brushed over the number and then dialed it.
The phone beeped, but no one answered.
