(not a spoiler but just in case) at the time of reading this arc's equivalent in the novel it was my theory that
this woman was the third person in ren and yuki's flat and was also ren's mother. ren made a throwaway comment about having a veteran midwife on hand, and I was certain it was her in the drawing delivering yuki's baby although I had no idea what yuki could have done to wrong her or how she could have ensured her death. also figured she might have been the one ren referred to as his most beloved as such a strong attachment to his mother might have contributed to some strife between her and his wife
all this based on the traditional enmity between mothers- and daughters-in-law lol
