Chapter 8

Author: Sweet Cotton Candy
Nancy's mind went completely blank, and it felt like someone had ripped her heart straight out of her chest. The pain was unbearable—sharp, suffocating, and final.

Hannah was actually pregnant.

Nancy had already suspected this day would come, but seeing it happen still crushed her. She watched as Hansen gently supported Hannah, his eyes filled with worry and fear.

Those emotions had never shown up in his eyes before. It was as if he was terrified something might happen to her.

Hannah said with a smile, "Hanny, don't be so nervous. I'm not that fragile, you know..."

But Hansen immediately snapped, "What do you mean you're not fragile? You're carrying my baby."

Hearing that, Hannah's face lit up with a sweet, giddy smile she could not hide. She was just about to say something else when her gaze landed on someone nearby—and her expression instantly changed.

"Mrs. Holland? What are you doing here?" she asked.

Hansen followed her line of sight. There stood Nancy—pale as a ghost. H

    The night outside had grown darker and heavier. At some point, the sky had turned completely black.Hansen stared at his phone's black screen with an extremely stormy expression. Nancy hadn't contacted him all day!She really was brushing off everything he said like it meant nothing. Or... was she actually planning to divorce him?Sitting on the bed, Hannah watched him silently. Then, she said with reddened eyes and a pitiful tone, "Hanny, maybe we should just let it go."I'm not that fragile. I don't need Ms. Nancy to apologize... Someone like me is used to being treated this way."Hansen's face darkened even more. He stood up abruptly."Things can't be left like this. Nancy nearly caused you to miscarry—everyone saw it! I'm going to bring her here right now and make her apologize. You deserve justice!"As soon as the words left his mouth, Hansen turned and stormed out. Hannah watched him leave, and there was a trace of something unreadable flickering in her eyes.Nancy was cl

    "Ahhh! Mrs. Holland pushed Mr. Hansen's companion down the stairs!""Oh my god, is that woman pregnant? Is she having a miscarriage? There's so much blood!"Hansen and Gavin immediately stopped their argument and rushed out. They saw Hannah now surrounded by a crowd. She was lying pale on the ground while a pool of blood spread beneath her.Nancy stood calmly on the second floor and watched everything with cold eyes."Nancy Shaw, what the hell are you doing? How could you do this? This is murder!"Hansen pushed through the crowd. He picked up Hannah, who was on the verge of passing out from the pain, and glared furiously at Nancy.Nancy showed no panic. Hearing Hansen's accusation, she replied indifferently, "It's Nigel's child. Why are you the one so worked up?"Hansen was livid. "You—""Enough arguing! Let's get her to the hospital now!" Nigel interjected urgently.Clenching his jaw, Hansen shot one last furious glare at Nancy before turning and carrying Hannah away.After

    Hannah immediately sensed something was wrong and instinctively tugged at Hansen's hand. "Mr. Holland, my stomach—"Before she could finish the word "hurts", Nigel answered truthfully, "Jacob's notorious for being despicable and shameless in the industry. He's got some business sense, but his reputation is terrible. "Why are you asking about him?""Oh? Why am I asking?" Gavin sneered, his gaze shifting to Hansen.Hansen seemed to realize something. His face turned pale as he stared at Nancy while his heart pounded violently. "Cece, Jacob wouldn't dare, right?"Nancy didn't answer directly. Instead, she looked at Hansen. Her clear eyes were filled with nothing but mockery."Does it matter? Weren't you too busy to stay back then?"Hansen's heart raced, and he could no longer hold back. He rushed forward and grabbed Nancy's hand. "Let's go home…"Nancy, however, forcefully shook off his hand and took two steps back. Her expression was now cold and distant."I'm Gavin's date toda

    Nancy responded indifferently, "It has been a while since I've dressed like this."Gavin noticed Nancy's low spirits, especially the dark circles under her eyes, and sensed something was wrong. It was clear she and Hansen had argued.Avoiding the topic, Gavin stood up with a smile. "Let's head to the banquet. The traffic might be bad today."An hour later, when Gavin escorted Nancy into the venue, they immediately drew everyone's attention."Oh my, Mr. Fenwick brought a stunning beauty to Mr. Fenwick Senior's birthday banquet. I was planning to introduce my sister to him!""That beauty looks so familiar... Wait, isn't that Mrs. Holland, Nancy Shaw?""Why didn't Mr. Holland bring Mrs. Holland himself? Instead, Mr. Fenwick is the one accompanying her. I get it—Mr. Holland must want to have it all."By the end of their whispers, the group exchanged knowing smiles, their gazes toward Nancy filled with mockery and amusement.Nancy noticed their stares and slightly furrowed her brows

    Hannah wore a look of wounded innocence. "Hanny, you left your phone at home... I was scared you might lose control and do something to Ms. Nancy…"Hansen froze for a moment. Nancy's pale, devastated face flashed through his mind again, and a sharp, relentless pain clawed at his chest.Hannah gently took Hansen's hand in hers. "Hanny, you love Ms. Nancy so much. She's just confused right now. She'll come back to you one day. I'm sure of it."Hansen's expression darkened once more. He abruptly raised his head and stared at Hannah. Hannah threw her arms around him with red-rimmed eyes."Hanny, you and Ms. Nancy just have too many misunderstandings. Why don't I go talk to her? We're both women—maybe I can speak her language... mmm!"Her words were cut off mid-sentence. She hadn't expected Hansen to kiss her so suddenly, but she quickly gave in as she tilted her head to accept his rough kiss.Just then, her eyes flicked upward toward the second floor. She could see Nancy watching fro

    Hansen yanked off the coat covering Nancy and saw that two buttons on her white blouse had popped open. Even the shoulder of her shirt was torn.Furious, Hansen grabbed Nancy by the throat. "Nancy Shaw, you slut! All I asked was for you to sign the contract, and you actually dared to seduce Gavin behind my back?"If I hadn't sent a detective to follow you, I wouldn't have known you were cheating on me!"Nancy's breathing grew labored, and her face turned pale and then purplish. She listened to Hansen's words and sneered. "Isn't this exactly what you wanted?"He had left her with a scumbag like Jacob just to go looking for Hannah!Hansen clearly misunderstood. He never expected Nancy to admit to it.All reason left him, especially he thought of the photos of Nancy and Gavin embracing, with Nancy disheveled and wearing Gavin's coat.Hansen slammed Nancy down onto the couch and began tearing at her blouse. "You slut! You won't let me touch you, but it's alright for Gavin?"Are you
