The Twisted Obsession-Chapter 330: Can I be a mom?

The quiet hum of the car engine filled the silence as Remo and Abby made their way back home. The warmth of the car’s heater kept the biting winter air at bay, but the atmosphere inside the vehicle was thick with unsaid words. Abby sat quietly in the passenger seat, her hands resting on her lap as she stared out the window, watching the snowflakes gently fall onto the windshield. The lights from passing cars and streetlamps cast soft glows across her face, but her expression was unreadable.

Remo kept his eyes on the road, glancing over at Abby every now and then. He could sense her internal struggle, the whirl of emotions she wasn’t voicing. He knew today had been a lot for her—seeing Lily after all the bitterness, the surprise of her pregnancy, and the emotional reunion that had followed. It was a lot to process, even for Abby, who had been through more than most people could imagine.

After what felt like an eternity, Remo broke the silence.

"How are you doing?" His voice was soft but steady, his eyes flicking toward her briefly before returning to the road.

Abby turned her head to look at him, a small smile tugging at her lips. It didn’t quite reach her eyes, but it was there, nonetheless. "I’m fine," she said, her voice just above a whisper.

Remo could tell she was holding something back, but he didn’t push. He nodded, his grip tightening slightly on the steering wheel as he considered his next words. The weight of everything that had transpired over the last few months—Abby’s recovery, the revelations about Margaret and Dominic, and the dangerous plot that had nearly cost them everything—still lingered between them. freewebnøvel_com

After a few moments, he cleared his throat, deciding it was time to tell her.

"I took care of it," he said, his voice more serious now. "Martha and Dominic... they won’t be causing any more problems."

Abby’s head snapped up, her eyes widening slightly in surprise. She hadn’t expected Remo to mention them—especially not so casually, as if he were discussing a business deal. She stared at him for a moment, unsure of what to say. But then again, she knew who she had married. Remo wasn’t just her husband; he was a mafia boss—a man who dealt with threats swiftly and without hesitation.

For a second, she opened her mouth to ask him what had happened, but she quickly closed it. She knew better than to pry into the details. Whatever had happened, whatever Remo had done to Martha and Dominic, it was for her. For them. That was enough.

Instead, she just nodded, her heart heavy with the weight of his words. "After Lily gives birth, I’ll let her know," Remo continued, his voice gentle again. "I’ll tell her the truth about them... and I’ll apologize."

Abby blinked, taken aback by his last words. She hadn’t expected that. An apology? From Remo? It was such a foreign concept—he rarely admitted when he was wrong, let alone apologized for it. But the look in his eyes told her he was serious. He was trying to make things right, in his own way. And for that, she was grateful.

She turned her gaze back to the window, the streetlights casting long shadows as they sped past. The silence stretched out once more, the weight of their conversation lingering in the air. But this time, it wasn’t uncomfortable. It felt like they were finally starting to move past the chaos, slowly finding their way back to each other.

Abby fidgeted with the hem of her coat, her mind racing with thoughts she hadn’t allowed herself to voice yet. Finally, she took a deep breath and broke the silence again.

"Remo?" she said softly, her voice tentative.

He glanced over at her, raising an eyebrow in question. "Yeah?"

She hesitated for a moment, her fingers nervously playing with the fabric of her coat. "Do you think I—I could be a mother?" Her voice was barely audible, and the vulnerability in her question made Remo’s chest tighten.

He kept his eyes on the road, but his expression softened. He knew how much this question meant to her. Abby had been through so much—her family’s betrayal, her mental and emotional battles, and now the question of whether she could ever have a normal life, let alone be a mother.

"Whenever you’re ready," Remo said gently, glancing at her with a soft smile. "We’ll go to the hospital for checkups. And if everything is okay..." He trailed off, his smile turning playful. "Then I’ll have to work hard."

Abby blinked in surprise, then a quiet laugh escaped her lips. It was the first time in a while that she had felt a genuine sense of warmth and happiness. She shook her head, her cheeks flushing slightly as she looked down at her hands. "You make it sound so easy."

Remo chuckled, his hand moving to rest briefly on her knee, giving it a reassuring squeeze before returning to the steering wheel. "It won’t be easy," he admitted. "But nothing worth having ever is. We’ll take it one step at a time. You’ve come so far already, Abby. There’s nothing we can’t face together."

Her heart swelled at his words, and for the first time in months, she allowed herself to hope. Maybe, just maybe, she could have a future beyond the darkness that had consumed her for so long. A future with Remo. A family.

Abby stared out the window, watching the city lights blur past as they neared home. The thought of being a mother was terrifying, but it was also something she hadn’t realized she wanted until now. And with Remo by her side, she felt like anything was possible.

As they pulled up to their house, Abby took a deep breath, feeling a sense of calm settle over her. Remo parked the car and turned to her, his eyes soft and full of love.

"We’ll figure it out," he said quietly, his voice steady. "Whatever happens, we’ll figure it out together."

Abby smiled, a genuine, hopeful smile that reached her eyes. "Yeah," she whispered. "Together."

Remo leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to her forehead before stepping out of the car. Abby followed suit, and as they walked toward their home, hand in hand, she couldn’t help but feel like they were finally leaving the past behind.

It wasn’t going to be easy, but for the first time in a long time, Abby felt ready to face whatever came next. With Remo by her side, she knew they could get through anything—even the challenges that lay ahead.
