Skeletons Of The Marital Closet

Mary had always made a wish so innocently that her daughter, in a certain corner of the world, would live as well as Natalie.

It did not matter if she was not as good as Natalie. Even a little worse, she would feel at ease if she was safe and healthy.

How dare Mary imagine what a four-year-old girl would experience and encounter after she disappeared!

Perhaps trafficked to remote mountainous areas.

Maybe sent to do hard work in the coal mines.

Every time she had a headache, she could do nothing but lie on the bed, feeling nauseous and dizzy, short of breath.
