  • Grieving My Child While He Welcomes Theirs   Chapter 8

    Cassandra's POVEven now, Gavin was still shifting the blame to Jenny. Suddenly, I felt like laughing, and I did.He looked at me in confusion.I started talking. "If you had stood by me even once, if you had shown even the slightest concern for Miley, none of Jenny's schemes would have worked."His expression shifted.I continued, "You're making it sound as though everything was Jenny's doing, as if you were completely innocent. But Gavin, you failed as a husband. You betrayed our marriage. You also failed as a father. "You disrespected Miley for the sake of your illegitimate daughter. Someone as heartless and ungrateful as you keeps saying you want to make amends. Do you honestly think I'd believe that?"I looked at him seriously. "Or do you think your apology and attempts to make amends are worth something? Gavin, you're worth nothing to me now. I came here to tell you that we should get divorced. I'll have my lawyer handle everything."With that, I stood up and walked away

But eventually, doing so became a habit, and I forgot that you were the one I should have been supporting from the beginning."Cassandra, can you forgive me? Just this once?"After reading them, I turned my phone off. I didn't reply to a single message.Once the project officially began, I immediately threw myself into work and rarely paid attention to what was happening back home. The company sent me here because I was the sole creator of the Better Horizons Project and had successful project management experience back home.However, the North Avorian market was completely different fro

  • Grieving My Child While He Welcomes Theirs   Chapter 6

    Cassandra's POVThe moment I landed in Lanor, a dry, warm sea breeze swept across my face. It seemed to sweep away much of the damp, bone-deep chill I had grown used to in Jenton."Cassandra Thorne?" A voice called out from the arrivals gate, carrying a distinct accent.I turned around and saw a tall man holding a name card with my name on it. He had pretty eyes and tousled curls, blown into a mess by the wind. When he smiled, his whole face seemed to light up."I'm Louis Corbet," he said, tucking the card under his arm and holding out his hand. "My boss asked me to pick you up."I shook his hand briefly. Then, I turned to grab my suitcase. But Louis had already picked it up, carrying it as if it weighed nothing."You don't need to—""It's fine. I like carrying things." I paused, then shook my head, laughing, and followed him.When we stepped out of the terminal, the warm sunlight enveloped me. Louis opened the car door for me and began explaining the project's progress in de

  • Grieving My Child While He Welcomes Theirs   Chapter 5

    Third-Person POVGavin suddenly had a bad feeling, and his arms instinctively loosened around the baby. "Molly!" Jenny yelled. Her heart nearly stopped as she rushed to grab Molly and pull her into her arms. Her knees scraped against the ground, drawing blood.Molly began wailing, having been startled. But this time, no one checked up on her.Tara's face went pale. She said, "Cassandra mentioned that there was a project that would require her to go abroad. But since she would have to be gone for three to five years, she turned it down."Gavin's expression shifted, and he rushed into the house."Hey, what are you doing?" the new homeowner shouted from behind him.However, he couldn't hear a single word. He didn't care about anything anymore. He only had one thought—to find Cassandra. The house was eerily empty.he new owner had recently gotten married and planned to renovate the house, so everything had already been moved out. Even Cassandra's slippers, the matching toothbrushe

  • Grieving My Child While He Welcomes Theirs   Chapter 4

    Cassandra's POVThe next day, while packing my things, I heard a baby whimpering. After hesitating for a moment, I pushed open the master bedroom door. The window was wide open, and cold air was rushing in.Molly was suffocating. Her body had turned blue, her little head was thrown back desperately, and she couldn't even cry out.I instinctively reached out to touch her, but my wrist was slapped away, sending a sharp pain through me."What are you doing?" Gavin glared at me with bloodshot eyes, as if I were a murderer. "Even if you hate Molly, you can't do something this cruel to her! If anything happens to her, I won't forgive you!"Jenny leaned against the doorframe, tears streaming down her face. "Cassandra, I know you blame me, but Molly is innocent. If you hate me, come after me."Gavin bent down to examine her. "She has acute epiglottic edema. If we had been ten minutes later, her airway would've been blocked, and she would have stopped breathing!"He shoved past me and ru

  • Grieving My Child While He Welcomes Theirs   Chapter 3

    Cassandra's POVThe next morning, I was woken up by noises coming from the entryway. Jenny was draped in a soft wool shawl, while my parents each carried a box of baby supplies.Gavin held the swaddled baby in his arms, as though he were carrying some priceless treasure. Miley's bedroom door had somehow been opened, and the name tag stuck to the crib had fallen off. "What are you doing?" I asked, hearing the tremor in my own voice.Mom set the boxes down on the floor without even looking up. "The room is just sitting empty anyway. We might as well let Molly use it."I walked over quickly and took a deep breath. "This belongs to Miley. She can't use it."Gavin frowned. "It's just a room. Are you really going to fight over it with a child?"Jenny took the baby from him and walked over, holding her out for me to see. "Cassandra, you haven't seen her yet, have you? Look, doesn't she look a little like you? Molly is here to be your daughter. With her by your side, you won't be so sa
