They hoped to have a big family, but it didn\u2019t happen. After trying and failing to get pregnant for the millionth time, they gave up and decided to enjoy each other\u2019s company.\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>It wasn\u2019t so bad. Agatha had even read in the paper that many women were choosing not to have children and become career women.

I\u2019m a career woman, not a mom,\u201d Agatha said to herself after reading the article.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>Richard never seemed particularly sad about not having kids either, although he loved seeing the few neighbors who came by for Halloween. They lived surrounded by other farms, and visiting a neighbor was a considerable walk. But it was still nice that they came trick-or-treating every year.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>The years went by, and Agatha never regretted not trying IVF or adopting a kid. They loved each other fiercely and had enough distractions with the farm.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>Unfortunately, people aged, and soon enough, they had to hire people to run the farm. After a while, they decided to move to a more suburban area of Milwaukee and enjoy the rest of their golden years.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>They lived in that area a few more years before Richard suffered an unexpected heart attack. Sadly, the doctors couldn\u2019t do anything, and he left this world. Agatha mourned the loss of her husband but was glad that their lives had been so extraordinary.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>One day, their lawyer called and asked her to meet up for a will reading. \u201cWhy, Mr. Perkins? We didn\u2019t have children or any extended family. Why do we need to read the will?\u201d Agatha asked him, confused.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>\u201cPlease, Mrs. Chambers. Let\u2019s meet up tomorrow in my office,\u201d Mr. Perkins insisted. Agatha reluctantly agreed, wondering why their lawyer was so formal about it.

Why are you getting my husband\u2019s money?\u201d she asked her.\n\n</p><div>\n<p class='\"ContentRenderer_paragraph__B2z36\"'>\u201cA few months ago, I discovered your husband on social media. He\u2019s my father. We took a DNA test to confirm it and everything.

She knew very well that Richard had dated Sophie long before Agatha met him. He told her she was his first love. \u201cBut I don\u2019t understand.
