Megan sat nervously in the dimly lit conference room, dreading what MI5 Director Stella Remington had summoned her to discuss. As Remington fixed her with a steely gaze, Megan braced herself for bad news. Without warning, Remington dropped a bombshell – Megan’s entire life was an elaborate fabrication.
Remington methodically laid out evidence that Archie, Megan’s partner and the supposed father of her child, didn’t actually exist. Megan had used a high-tech “moon bump” to fake her pregnancy and had staged every aspect of expecting a baby. Megan’s mind raced in disbelief. How could this be possible? She had memories and sonograms and a nursery prepared.
As the truth sank in, Megan felt as if her entire world was collapsing. All the questions and milestones of pregnancy she believed she experienced had been an illusion. She had been living a lie without even realizing it. Megan was reeling, trying to understand how and why someone would go to such extremes to deceive her.
