Tragic Love

Feel-Good Story

Eight months into my pregnancy, my husband finally makes time from his police duties to go to a prenatal checkup with me for the first time. The moment we step into the hospital, his satellite-encrypted phone buzzes urgently. The caller ID flashes briefly, and just like that, the man who's always calm and collected panics. "Honey, it's a red alert. Another international fugitive just crossed the border. I… I'm sorry…" He's clearly anxious, yet his tone is firm, leaving no room for argument. After apologizing, he rushes off. As I watch his SUV speed out of sight, my fist clenches tightly, crumpling the prenatal checkup sheet. I flag down a cab, slide into the car, and swiftly instruct the driver, "Follow that car. Don't lose it." A Red Notice for a fugitive? What a joke. My father, who works at the National Security Agency, barely catches wind of a notice like that. Yet, somehow, a mere police chief who only assists with cases is suddenly tasked with catching a high-priority criminal. Fine, then. I can't wait to meet the superior who's given him such an urgent assignment.

I am so done with this type of story. It is so unoriginal and I don't believe no one honestly enjoys this ... just another one where the villain somehow tricks everyone and pretends to be good. Shallow and brainless characters...

Chapter 1
As soon as the cab driver heard that I was trying to catch my cheating husband in the act, he floored the gas pedal.My husband, Harvey Lowe, was on his way to see someone. I didn't know who the other person was, but I felt a crippling sense of anxiety.To my surprise, after plenty of twists and turns through the streets, the cab eventually stopped in front of the police residential area, a villa compound.I let out a sigh of relief. At least it wasn't some hotel.The residential area was housing allocated to high-ranking officers at the precinct, and Harvey had a villa there too.I had stayed here for a few months before I got pregnant the first time. I remembered that the neighbors had all been very polite and friendly.Now, with just a glance from afar, I could see that the place was packed with luxury cars and lit up with bright decorations. I blinked, puzzled. Was today some kind of special occasion?I was ready to head in and take a look when a security guard stopped me

Chapter 2
Harvey was stumped. His lips parted, but not a single word came out.The crowd, consisting of elites and their families, were so stunned that they were speechless. The air was thick with tension. Suddenly, a baby's cry sliced through the silence, jolting everyone. Marilyn quickly took the baby in her arms and calmed him down. Then, she turned to me, shouting, "You're insane, Sadie! What right do you have to come and harass my son when you're already divorced? If you have any shame, get out of here right now. You wouldn't want to offend one of the officials here and end up in jail, would you?"Nancy also jumped in to reprimand me. "Divorced or not, you can't just assault someone in public! And technically, you assaulted a police officer!"As soon as the crowd realized who I was, the whole room erupted into chaos. Everyone started yelling, saying I should be locked up and taught a lesson.I frowned and grabbed Harvey by the collar, ready to ask him how I had gone from being his w

Marilyn shrieked, "You're the homewrecker who destroyed my son's family!"My back slammed hard against the wall, and a sharp pain tore through my belly. Before I could react, the baby in my arms was yanked away and handed to Chelsea.Then, the officers stepped forward, bristling with righteous anger. "Yeah, everyone in the precinct knows Harvey and Chelsea are together.""If Chelsea hadn't provided us with useful leads, allowing us to close many major cases, Chief Lowe wouldn't have been promoted so quickly.""You're just an ex-wife who only holds him back. Maybe you should be ashamed."Providing useful leads? Closing major cases and being promoted? It was ridiculous—I was the one who helped Harvey achieve all of that.So not only had Chelsea stolen my title as Harvey's wife, but she had also taken all the credit for my work. Harvey had probably done it to give her a leg to stand on.But why did I deserve this?"You need therapy, not another baby. Sabotaging the chief's marri

Hearing the genuine indignation in my voice, the high-ranking officials began doubting themselves."Hold on… That woman's not actually the legitimate wife, is she? That would make Chelsea the homewrecker… No wonder they hid the news of their wedding!""Just check out the way Harvey looks at her—he looks guilty! Maybe the baby is actually his…"The chatter in the living room grew louder, making Harvey's already guilty face flush shades of red.As I felt the baby's heartbeat growing faint in my belly, I knew I couldn't afford to argue with them anymore. All I wanted was to get out of there quickly."Look at me, Harvey! All you have to do right now is give me Skyler and send me to the hospital. As long as the baby's fine, I promise you I won't hold it against you. We'll file for divorce—amicably."As soon as I said that, Marilyn smashed a wineglass on my head. The glass shards tore into my cheek."Shut your mouth!" she screamed. "Why would anyone listen to a psychotic witch? Get th

As soon as those words rang out, the door to the villa was kicked open with a bang. A team of bodyguards in black suits stormed in, their faces cold and uncompromising.At the sound of the commanding voice, everyone in the room went pale.Chelsea and Marilyn were equally shocked and froze on the spot. They tried to turn around and look at the uninvited guests, only to find a bodyguard holding them at gunpoint.The bodyguards hurried forward, forming a protective circle around me. In a few swift moves, they restrained the men trying to strip me.Then, the lead bodyguard swept his eyes across the room, his sharp gaze finally landing on Harvey.Harvey's expression fell in an instant. He glared down at me as I lay slumped on the floor, his voice dripping with fury. "What are you playing at this time, Sadie? Haven't you done enough? Who the hell are these people?"I sat silently, wrapped in the bodyguard's jacket for cover. I stared past Harvey at the figure slowly walking in. At the

"Commissioner Walker, I swear things aren't as they seem! It's just that Sadie can be overly headstrong sometimes, and I was only trying to take the edge off her! "I didn't intend to actually hurt her… Oh, and I would've sent her to the hospital regardless of whether you came—"Before Harvey could finish, Dad gave him a brutal kick that sent him crashing to the floor. "You piece of shit! Who are you to discipline my daughter?"I could tell Dad's eyes had turned red from holding back his tears. Sensing that my condition was deteriorating quickly, he shot Harvey one final warning. "You bastard. If anything happens to Sadie or the baby, I swear you won't walk out of here alive!"He carried me and turned to leave.I ignored the whispers and gasps around me. Instead, I swept my gaze over Chelsea, Marilyn, and every single person who had hurt me."Just you wait," I muttered coldly. "I'll come back and settle the score for every single thing you did to me today."With that, Dad carrie

Chapter 7
Dad had gotten white strands of hair overnight.I didn't ask any more questions. Maybe it was better that the baby was gone. That way, I had finally severed all my ties to Harvey completely. In the days that followed, I stayed in the hospital to recover. Dad and Edward took turns watching over me, never leaving me alone for a moment.Harvey, of course, tried to come a few times to make his presence known, but he never managed to get anywhere near me.Even when he tried to break in through the window in the middle of the night, the bodyguards Edward had hired didn't hesitate to toss him out the window from the fourth floor.During the two months I spent recovering, I never saw him again. It wasn't until the day I was discharged, when Dad and Edward escorted me to the car, that I caught sight of a familiar figure across the street.Harvey stood silently in the rain, a baseball cap on his head. He had grown so thin that he was barely recognizable.He stood still in the downpour, h

Chapter 8
Fate finally smiled on us. Just two weeks later, Edward tracked down our precious Jonah to a remote fishing village. The DNA test confirmed a 99% match—he was my son.I cried all night, leaving my eyes swollen the next morning. I couldn't wait for Edward to bring Jonah home.Just as we stepped out the door to welcome Jonah back, we ran into Harvey. He looked haggard, dirty, and lifeless.When he saw me, his expression flickered with a mix of regret, resentment, and grief. He staggered toward me and, in a desperate gesture, collapsed onto his knees before my feet.Dad didn't hesitate to kick him away. "This is your last warning, Harvey. Get out of here and stop harassing my daughter!"The bodyguards nearby soon surrounded Harvey, ready to drag him away, but I raised a hand to stop them."Dad…"After six long years of entanglement, I felt there ought to be closure between Harvey and me. Dad understood what I meant and quietly stepped away, giving us space.Across from me, Harvey
