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 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 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
Eight Months Pregnant: Living as the Police Chief's Secret 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

"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

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?
