"Miss Anna? Can you hear me?"The middle-aged doctor leaned toward Anna, who had just opened her eyes. His worried gaze fixed on her pale face as she slowly sat up in bed."How are you feeling, Miss?"Anna stared dazedly at Dr. Edward standing beside her. Her vision was blurry, and severe dizziness overwhelmed her."I’m fine, just feeling a little dizzy," Anna said in a weak voice.Fighting the tremors in her legs, Anna forced herself to stand. She ignored the fact that her vision was starting to blur. Anna looked around the room, there were only the two of them here, while the man who had begged her last night to donate was nowhere to be seen.Maybe he was now holding Jessica, who was weak after her blood transfusion? Anna smiled bitterly at the thought.“Thank goodness. I was worried because you fainted during the donation process… The donation procedure is now complete, Miss. We’ve collected five hundred milliliters of blood for Miss Jessica. I’m truly impressed by your kindness t

The mark left by Adrian's slap felt hot, the heat spreading quickly to her chest. The love she had cherished for three years now left only hatred and deep disappointment."I hit you because you deserved it! This is punishment for your behavior, which has crossed the line!" Adrian snapped.Anna shook her head vigorously. "It's not like that, Adrian, you misunderstand—""Misunderstand? I saw you push Jessica myself! No matter how angry you are at your sister, you can't hurt her! Do you want to make her even more hurt?"Adrian moved closer to Anna, grabbing her chin."Know your place, Anna! If it weren't for Jessica forcing your parents to look for you, you'd still be stuck in that filthy orphanage!"The man's last sentence made Anna's heart sink. So her parents had brought her home for Jessica's sake? Why did everyone choose Jessica and treat her like an animal?Anna's eyes flashed sharply at Adrian. "Adrian, I never hit or pushed her! I swear on our baby—""Please don't fight!"Jessica

The incident that befell her kept Anna from sleeping soundly that night. Every time she closed her eyes, the image of her husband kissing Jessica passionately continued to haunt her.When morning came and she woke up, a glimmer of hope appeared in her heart that Adrian would be beside her bed and show her a little concern.But the man had not returned since last night."Miss Anna? Are you alone? Where is your husband?" a young nurse asked as she placed porridge on the nightstand.Anna looked up, her gaze briefly falling on the name pinned to the nurse's uniform, Lily."My husband will be here soon, he's on his way." She lied as she clutched her blanket.Anna sighed inwardly, certain that her husband was currently embracing Jessica in bed."Given your condition, you are prone to stress. When your husband arrives, ask him to take you for a walk outside the room; it will aid your recovery. You really need encouragement right now."Anna responded to Lily's words with a bitter smile. The p

"Adrian, stop, the nurse will see us," Jessica said in a spoiled tone."I don't care." Adrian said dismissively, then kissed Jessica's forehead again. "I love you so much I can't stop. Do you know how scared I was of losing you just now?"Jessica's face clouded over, her hand pushing Adrian's chest. "But... you belong to Anna now. You're her husband."Adrian laughed cynically. "Honey, I've told you many times, haven't I? I only love you. All this time, Anna has just been a tool I used to keep you healthy. She loves me so much and obeys my every word like a fool," continued Adrian, kissing Jessica's face again.A piercing tightness gripped Anna's chest as tears flowed so profusely they blurred her vision."They're right, I am stupid," she muttered. All this time, she had loved Adrian so much that she obeyed his every command. Even when he asked her to donate blood three times a week for Jessica, she agreed as long as Adrian was happy."Honey, what if you fall in love with Anna for re

An overwhelming joy struck Anna's heart, and she almost screamed in the bathroom when the pregnancy test in her hand showed two lines."I-I'm pregnant," Anna muttered blankly, tears falling without her realizing it.She clutched the pregnancy test tightly. "Adrian, we're going to have a baby..." Anna smiled through her tears.After three years of marriage to Adrian Vanderbilt, she had been diagnosed as infertile. Despite undergoing therapy and treatment many times, she only got the same results. She rushed back to bed, grabbed her phone that was lying there, her heart pounding, impatient to tell her husband. Anna was sure her husband would cry with happiness because he had long wanted a baby.Before she pressed the call button, a loud knock on her bedroom door made her rush to the door."Anna, open the door quickly!"Anna recognized the harsh voice that had always insulted and scolded her for years, Mariana, her biological mother who treated her like a stranger after she was picked up
