Synopsis

Mistress

Bias

Scumbag

Winning Back the Wife

Karma

Melodramatic

At our wedding ceremony, the four-year-old nephew of my fiance, Michael Thompson, suddenly rushes onto the stage. He grabs his uncle's hand and cries, "Daddy, why are you marrying another woman? Don't you want me and Mommy anymore?" Seeing this, Lisa Jenner quickly runs over to intervene. She sounds apologetic, but her words are slightly provocative. "I'm so sorry, Sarah. Danny lost his father when he was little and has always seen Michael as his dad. He didn't mean to cause trouble." Even Michael remains completely calm as he picks up Danny. He explains to me, "Before David passed away, he made me promise to take care of his widow and child. I only let Danny call me 'Daddy' so he could have a normal childhood. You understand, right?" As I look at the three of them, standing there like the perfect family, I laugh coldly and rip off my veil. "This poor child has been through so much. How could I possibly steal his dad away? "You know what? Why don't I just let Lisa take my place up here? Then you can have your happy little family of three."

Chapter 1
I stood in my elaborate wedding dress in the center of the hotel banquet hall, bowing slightly to the guests gathered around."Thank you all, friends and family, for coming to today's wedding ceremony. However, there's been an unexpected change. The bride will no longer be me. It will be Lisa Jenner instead."I deeply apologize for this surprise, and I'm grateful that everyone took time out of their schedules to attend this wedding banquet. I hope this won't dampen your spirits, and please continue to enjoy the celebration."The wedding venue fell into complete silence.Michael Thompson's brow furrowed tightly as he said urgently, "Sarah, stop talking nonsense! Today is our special day. What happened earlier was just an accident!"A sharp pain shot through my chest, spreading quickly throughout my entire body. I held back the tears in my eyes and looked at him."Michael, what does a four-year-old really know? Do you honestly think he could run up on stage and say those things wit

Lisa's words made Michael's anger flare even more. He looked at me with a dark expression.Seeing that I had no intention of changing my mind, he still kept his voice low as he said, "Sarah, I know you're upset right now, but we can't let all these people see our family become a laughingstock. "Go back and calm down. I'll explain the situation to them, and Lisa will help complete the ceremony properly for you. Stop making a scene."He sighed slightly, took my hand, and patted it. "Sarah, you're the woman I want to marry. We're definitely going to get married."Lisa smoothly linked her arm through Michael's. The corners of her mouth turned up slightly, and there was a mocking glint in her eyes. They continued toasting and thanking the guests as if nothing had happened, as though what had just occurred was merely an insignificant little episode.I looked around the venue, taking in the wedding scene I had carefully planned, then looked at the groom, who was supposed to join hands w

Michael continued, "I also know you were really looking forward to this wedding and put so much energy and effort into making it perfect. Don't be too heartbroken. I'll make it up to you with an even grander wedding later, okay?"I remained silent, and my face was expressionless. He seemed very panicked."Are you still angry about Lisa? But she's my sister-in-law after all. Before my brother died, he asked me to take care of his widow and child. As his older brother, I can't just abandon them, can I?"Sarah, you're still pregnant. Don't get too worked up, or it might affect our child, okay?"Whether he genuinely wanted to care for his sister-in-law for his brother's sake, or if he wanted to care for his sister-in-law and her child for his own reasons, I no longer wanted to know.His priorities were crystal clear. What the truth was no longer mattered to me.The corners of my mouth turned up slightly in a bitter smile. "You actually remember that we're having a child.""Why would

"Sarah, guess who Michael will love more once your child is born? Him or Danny?"I finished reading the message and gripped my phone tightly in my palm. After a moment of silence, I took a screenshot of this message and sent it to Michael.The next day, I went to the hospital for an abortion. From discovering the child's existence to the child completely leaving me, it had all happened over a span of two months.This was the child I had eagerly anticipated, yet now I was personally giving him up. My face was pale as I left the hospital with the recovery medication the doctor prescribed.At the entrance, I happened to run into Michael and Lisa bringing Danny to the hospital for a checkup. The two of them were acting intimately, laughing and chatting, with Danny leaning into Michael's embrace. The three of them looked like a warm, happy family.Lisa spotted me first. Her lips curved upward in a mocking smile, then she suddenly pretended to panic and pulled her hand away from Michael

Michael was instantly furious. "So you're saying she hurt her own child to frame you? You're a mother too. Would you do something like that?"I looked at him, hurling harsh words at me because of another woman, and remained silent for a long time before speaking."I already brought up breaking up last night. What right do you have to boss me around?"Michael frowned, the anger in his eyes burning even fiercer than before."Sarah Mitchell! You're in the wrong here. I didn't do anything wrong, so why should we break up? You're going to handle everything for Lisa and Danny at the hospital today!"If you don't handle it well... I remember your friend Emma runs a studio, right? I'm sure you wouldn't want to see all her hard work go to waste."I stared at him in disbelief. "Are you threatening me?"His voice was low as he replied, "Sarah, it's come to this because you forced my hand. Besides, after your parents died, I've been the one taking care of you."I've invested so much time a

Chapter 6
Michael stared blankly at the pool of blood on the floor. His eyes were vacant. Dr. Langford's accusations rang in his ears, but he seemed to have lost his soul. He was standing there like a statue, completely motionless.Dr. Langford's words struck like thunder in his heart. His body was trembling slightly, and his face was filled with undeniable panic."That's impossible! She… She was fine last night, and our child was still there... This can't be! This is our child. How could she..."Dr. Langford worked to save me for three full hours. When I was wheeled out of the operating room, Michael immediately rushed to my bedside. His eyes burned with fury mixed with confusion, and his expression was frighteningly dark."Sarah! How could you bring yourself to do it?""Do what?"I had just been given anesthesia, and my head was still foggy. I couldn't immediately understand what he meant.His eyes were red-rimmed as he stared fixedly at my abdomen. "How could you bear to abort the baby

Chapter 7
Emma and I planned to go abroad together to open a design studio. Tomorrow, I would be leaving this city where I was born and raised, and where I had lived for over 20 years. I never imagined that my final moments here would be spent in a hospital.Late at night, Michael gently pushed open my hospital room door and walked to my bedside. He looked at my sleeping form, and his eyes were full of guilt. "Sarah, I'm sorry..."I wasn't actually asleep. I slowly opened my eyes. "You don't need to apologize. It's all in the past.""Yes, it's all in the past."Thinking I wasn't angry anymore, he looked at me with delight. "Sarah, I'll treat you better."Just as he was about to continue speaking, I smiled slightly. "Michael, I want to rest. Whatever you want to say, let's talk tomorrow.""I'll stay here and keep you company.""No need. Go back to the company. I want to be alone for a while."He said nothing more. He just quietly looked at me for a long time. Seeing that my expression see

Chapter 8
"Get out!"Michael angrily pushed Margaret aside and stormed out of the house. He stood at the doorway, full of anxiety, thinking about how he could find me.Suddenly, as if struck by inspiration, he hurried to his car and raced toward the hospital. He remembered my best friend, Emma. She and I had grown up together and were extremely close.After my parents passed away, he and Emma were the two people I trusted most in my heart. He felt that while I might leave him, I couldn't possibly abandon Emma. Not to mention, her mother was sick and receiving treatment at the hospital.He rushed to the hospital and indeed saw Emma packing up her things and preparing to leave. But Emma was not someone who'd easily reveal my whereabouts.He tried both threats and bribes, even promising to bring in the country's best specialists to treat Emma's mother.But Emma remained expressionless as she said, "You're underestimating both me and my mother. Do you think I'd tell you Sarah's location over s

"What are you doing in my room this late?"The table was covered with food. Lisa smiled sweetly, and her voice was gentle. "I heard from Margaret that Sarah left, and you spent the whole day looking for her. You just got back, so you probably haven't eaten yet. I had the chef prepare some food..."Before she could finish, Michael's dark gaze frightened her into silence.His lips curved slightly upward, but his eyes were filled with coldness. "I asked you why you're in my room this late."Lisa had never seen Michael with such a sinister, resentful expression. She was so scared she had to grip the table to steady herself.She forced out a smile, speaking ingratiatingly. "It was late, and you weren't back yet. I was worried about you, so I came over..."At these words, Michael's expression grew even darker. He remembered why I had left. It was because Lisa always found various excuses to get his attention, making him repeatedly ignore my feelings.At first, he really just wanted

I looked at him and couldn't help but laugh. "Mr. Thompson, we've already broken up. Now we're just strangers. I hope you can understand that and stop making things difficult for me."My words cut through him like a blade. He clenched his hands into fists, looking at me with anguish."I was just fulfilling my duty as a brother by taking care of my brother's widow and child. I may not have handled it well, but Lisa and I are completely innocent. We never did anything improper. Why can't you forgive me?"Faced with his emotional outburst, I felt completely unmoved inside. I simply stood there quietly, waiting for him to calm down."Michael, does the absence of improper behavior really cover up those special feelings you have for her in your heart? When you used work as an excuse to reject me but spent time with another woman instead, you had already given up on our relationship.""Can't we start over?" Michael's voice cracked slightly.He was the one who abandoned our relationship
