Chapter 2

Author: South Twig
“I don’t care about the Sinclair family. I don’t know about you people. Besides, the whole of Jinvell belongs to the Fletcher family.”

Yelena looked down at me and made it clear that she did not take Hunter seriously.

The next moment, the glass door burst open with a kick.

I could no longer hold back my tears. “Hunter!”

Hunter saw how badly hurt I was and flew into a rage. He smacked Yelena to the floor and ran to my side.

Then, he wrapped his coat around me and carefully held my wounded body.

“Don’t be scared, Wendy. I’m here.”

He turned to the bodyguards with a fierce glint in his eyes.

“How dare you hurt my sister?! You’ll pay for this!”

Still worried, I trembled as I curled up in Hunter’s arms and sobbed softly. “Hunter, didn’t you bring anyone with you?”

His expression darkened.

“I didn’t expect anyone in Jinvell to be foolish enough to pick on you.

“Don’t worry. Dad’s on his way with some people. They’ll be here soon.”

Just then, Yelena rushed over in anger. “You lowlife! How dare you hit me?! Do you have a death wish?”

The right side of her face was swollen with a clear handprint.

Hunter turned to her with fury in his eyes. Gritting his teeth, he said, “Did you just say you’re Jacob’s wife?”

“Yes. My husband is Jacob Fletcher. You’re Hunter Sinclair, right?

“I’ll call my husband and get him to kill you! How dare you hit me?! You’re going to pay!”

Yelena put the call on speaker. Once Jacob answered, she whined, “Honey, a man named Hunter Sinclair is accusing me of bullying his sister. He wants to kill me.

“He even hit me.”

Jacob’s tone suddenly grew tense over the phone. “What did you say his name was?”

A chill ran down my spine. I could not believe that the person on the other end was actually Jacob.

“No way. Hunter couldn’t possibly be in Jinvell today. Someone must be impersonating him.”

Hearing Jacob say that, I sank to the floor in a daze.

Blood pooled beneath me and started to soak Hunter’s coat.

Hunter panicked and pressed his hands against my wound to stop the bleeding.

Seeing me like this, he could no longer control his anger. He shouted into Yelena’s phone, “Jacob, do you even have a conscience? Wendy’s carrying your child!”

Yelena immediately hung up and angrily replied, “What are you yelling for?! My husband says he doesn’t know you at all!

“Even if I kill you in front of everyone today, we can just pay our way out of it. My husband has plenty of money.”

Hunter scoffed. “Hah! Jacob is where he is because of the Sinclair family, and now, he has the nerve to turn on us!

“I’m warning you. Take Wendy to a hospital now, and I might still let you live.”

Yelena looked at my swollen belly and smirked. “Pregnant, huh? Fine. I’ll take care of that.

“Get that baby out of her.”

I could not hold back anymore and grabbed the tailor’s shears beside me. Then, I rushed at Yelena and plunged the shears into her stomach.

    I did not feel sorry for Yelena. She had indeed hurt me, and she needed to pay. I only thought that we were alike in a way. We had both been blind enough to fall for the same man.“Wendy, is this enough?” Jacob ignored Yelena’s pain and displayed her to me like she was some kind of trophy.I closed my eyes and held the divorce papers up to him. “You’ll get nothing. No complaints, understand?”He looked at me in shock. “Wendy, you said—” “I never said I would forgive you. Stop being so naive, Jacob.”“I did all of this for you. Yelena—” Before he could finish, my father kicked him hard in the chest.“Be smart and sign it. Don’t make me force you to. “If it comes to that, I won’t be as gentle as Wendy.”“Mr. Sinclair!”Jacob tried to speak, but my father grabbed him by the neck again. “Are you signing it or not?”Jacob had no choice but to sign the divorce papers. I felt a sense of satisfaction I had never felt before. Even the slightest connection to Jacob made m

    My father kicked Jacob hard in the chest. “You monster! I must have been blind to let my precious daughter marry you! “How dare Yelena hurt my daughter and my son?!”Jacob shook his head in fear. He knew better than anyone what my father was capable of. He could not go against him.“Mr. Sinclair, I swear I didn’t know anything. It was all her. She’s the one who did it. “I’ll get her to apologize to Wendy right now.”Jacob grabbed Yelena by the head and slammed her face against the floor again and again.She cried out in pain, “Jacob, how could you do this to me?!”Within minutes, Yelena’s forehead was covered in blood.I stared at the ring on her finger in a daze. Years ago, Jacob had spent every cent he had to buy me that ruby. However, it was on Yelena’s finger, and the sight felt painfully ironic.Jacob noticed where I was looking, and his face twisted with anger when he saw the ring. “Who told you to touch Wendy’s things?”He yanked the ring off Yelena’s finger

    “Oh, my god. The gossip in these rich families is wild,” the crowd murmured in surprise.I sneered. “If I’ve told even one lie today, I’ll eat my words.”Jacob’s expression darkened. The sun was blazing, and next to him, Yelena could not take the heat anymore. She leaned weakly against him.“Honey, aren’t you the CEO of Northshore Group? Why are you scared of someone like her?”CEO?Hah. If Jacob had not latched onto the Sinclair family, he would never have become the CEO of Northshore Group—not in this life or the next.“How ridiculous. Everything you have comes from me. You live off me.”“Wendy, don’t go too far!”“Honey, what is she even saying? You’re my husband. Why is she saying that you live off her?”Yelena’s face was full of confusion. But Jacob ignored her and said, “I won’t blame you for losing the baby. Just let me out now.”I wanted to see Jacob’s face up close, so I told them to let him out.The man who once acted so proudly looked like a mess.Jacob felt ev

    “Wendy, if you keep crying, Dad’s going to smack me,” Hunter called out from the ambulance next to us.I quickly wiped my tears and hurried to see how he was.My father steadied me as we walked toward Hunter’s ambulance. He was careful not to aggravate my wounds. “What’s there to look at? That kid’s tough. He’s not dying,” he said.I did not like that and frowned at him. “Hunter got hurt because of me. Don’t say that.”My father chuckled. “Alright, I know. You two have always been close,” he said fondly.As soon as the ambulance doors opened, I saw Hunter lying on a stretcher, and his face was twisted in pain.The bandages across his chest were stained with blood. There was not a single spot on his body that was not injured.He was never meant to suffer like this—all because of me.The thought made my chest tighten.When Hunter tried to sit up, I pushed him back down.“You need to rest. Don’t move around until you’re better. “And no drinking.”Hunter nodded right away.

    When I saw my father, I could no longer hold on and fainted.“Who in Jinvell dares to hurt my daughter? You have some nerve!“Patch my daughter and son up immediately!”Hunter and I were then lifted out of the glass enclosure. The rescue team worked quickly, and I barely survived.Hunter’s injuries were worse than mine, and he was still unconscious.I was covered in bandages from head to toe, and I held my stomach, which had finally stopped hurting.However, a terrible feeling rose in my chest.“My… My baby?”I stared at the nurse in the ambulance. She appeared uneasy and did not answer.Where was my child?Feeling desperate, I asked again, “Tell me! Where’s my baby?” The nurse avoided my gaze and whispered, “Mrs. Fletcher… the baby didn’t survive.“The baby… had been stillborn for some time.”Stillborn? I could not believe what I was hearing.That little life had been alive in me only a few hours ago. How could it be stillborn?It was impossible. This could not be tr

    I was on the verge of breaking down as I pressed my face against the receiver. I wanted to tell Jacob what was happening. But my mouth was gagged, so all that came out were muffled sounds.I stayed quiet for too long, and Jacob started to sound irritated.“Wendy! I already said I’d marry you. What are you upset about now?”Yelena realized that something was wrong and hurried toward me.I quickly tried to hit the speaker button. It took several attempts before I was successful.Jacob’s voice then echoed inside the small glass enclosure.“Wendy, are you messing with me?!”Yelena stopped for a second when she heard that. But then, she charged over and grabbed me by the collar.She completely lost control and screamed, “Why do you have my husband’s number?!“You slut! Did you sleep with my husband?”I looked at her with a blank expression, and she yanked the cloth out of my mouth.“Who are you? What are you to my husband?”I broke into a cold, mocking smile before looking at he
