Chapter 6

Author: Perfect Timing
At first, the men tried to tie her up along with me.

However, when they noticed the crowd gathering behind her, they panicked and bolted.

The stranger slipped a coat over me and carefully led me to a hotel.

After I showered, she finally revealed her identity.

She was a journalist named Hannah Orwell. Like all the others, she knew I carried a headline-worthy scandal. She wanted to hear my story. However, she said that if I didn’t want to talk, that was fine too.

I asked her, "Why did you save me from those men? Aren’t you afraid I really am the kind of monster everyone says I am?"

Her face betrayed no expression. For a moment, she hesitated, then answered, "No matter what you’ve done—even if you broke the law—there are legal ways to punish you. What they tried to do was wrong. You shouldn’t have to suffer that kind of violence."

She continued, "Your ex-husband already signed the divorce papers. Your parents have gone back to their normal lives, but you’re the only one still haunt

    Mom didn’t give me a chance to speak. Her hand cracked across my face. "How dare you air something so shameful online?! You promised us you’d have the abortion and leave. Is this how you repay us for raising you?"I laughed coldly. "That’s right. But I never imagined you’d hire five men to violate me! Again and again, you treat me like I’m not even human. This was never my fault!"My roar only earned me another round of slaps from both of them.Dad sneered. "Look at how people talk about you online, and you still think you’re blameless?"I clenched my jaw, fixing them with a hard stare. "But you know better than anyone what really happened that night. I was the clueless one."Because of what happened, my brother, Ryan Hart, cut ties with you and ran away. Although you were heartbroken, you didn’t want to lose me after losing your son. So you told me nothing happened."I was drugged. My memories were hazy. I actually believed you that maybe nothing happened, but you didn’t expect

    The moment Nathan’s eyes landed on the report, his brows furrowed.Before he could say anything, Mom leaned close and whispered something in his ear. Instantly, his face darkened.When he looked back at me, his eyes were cold and filled with disgust.I had expected that reaction, yet my chest still tightened with pain. His response only confirmed it—I truly was nothing more than a wretched stain.After hearing Mom’s words, Nathan recoiled from me as if I carried a plague.Turning to the other media and bystanders, he raised his voice. "This is a family matter. We shouldn’t interfere. Her parents and husband are all OB-GYNs. Three doctors wouldn’t misdiagnose the fetus together. And if there really were an issue, the police would’ve resolved it at the station already. We’re talking about an unborn child here. Don’t stir up gossip or feed on someone’s tragedy."With that, he waved for his team to leave. His parting glance at me was laced with pure loathing.Others looked unsettled

    My hands shook violently as I held the prenatal report.The police were still pressing my parents and Aiden, demanding to know why they were trying to force a woman into aborting a healthy child.Dazed, I lifted my head.Officer Rivers noticed my distress and quickly tried to calm me. "It’s alright. No matter what happens, we’ll stand up for you. Did you see anything unusual in that report?"A bitter smile tugged at my lips. I shook my head.Then, I met my mother’s eyes. The hatred there was unmistakable. She sneered, "I should’ve known that you’re nothing but an ungrateful whore. Imagine calling the cops on your own parents.""Another word like that, and we’ll detain you," Officer Rivers warned sharply.Mom shut her mouth, but the loathing in her eyes didn’t lessen one bit.A blur of trauma crashed over me again. My whole body felt sick. I bit down hard on my lip and forced myself to look at the police."I’m sorry. I wasn’t thinking clearly before. There is… something wrong w

    The moment my parents arrived, they found Aiden and me surrounded by a crowd. Without any exchange of words, they knew something had happened.Mom rushed to shield me in her arms, but the instant she touched me, I flinched.Kind Samaritans quickly explained what had just taken place.Dad lifted his hand, ready to slap Aiden across the face. But before he could, Aiden raised the prenatal report high."Dad, don’t look!" I cried, lunging to grab it.It was too late.He caught it first, his eyes flicking over the page. A tremor rippled through him.I whispered tentatively, "Dad…"When his gaze snapped back to me, his eyes were bloodshot. His raised hand swung down, not at Aiden, but across my cheek."Wretch! Aiden told you to abort it for your own good!"I shattered inside. Still, I gritted my teeth, forcing out, "But the doctor said the baby is healthy!""I’m an OB-GYN too! How dare you argue with me!" His fist drew back, aiming for my belly, until my mother threw herself in fr

    At the hospital, I made sure to grab the prenatal report first.Even after Dr. Cole reassured me that the baby was perfectly healthy, I immediately tucked the report into my hands.I thought that as long as Aiden didn’t see it, nothing bad could happen. However, the moment we stepped out of the doctor’s office, he asked me for it, just like in my last life.My heart lurched, but I forced a smile. "Why do you need my report?"Aiden smiled back. "I’m the baby’s father, and I’m an OB-GYN. Isn’t it normal for me to take a look?""Dr. Cole already said both the baby and I are healthy. Don’t you believe her?" I challenged."It’s not that. I just want to understand the details so that I can take better care of you."I deliberately slipped the report into my bag right in front of him. "Well, I’m not letting you see it today."He assumed I was just being pouty, so he played along. "Alright, alright. I won’t look. Your health is all that matters."I clung to his arm with a smile. "I’m j
