When I went to the hospital for a checkup to see if my fourth IVF attempt had succeeded, I saw Daniel Cooper, who was supposed to be on a business trip. He was carefully supporting a young, beautiful woman as they walked out of the obstetrics and gynecology department. Her belly was unmistakably round, and she looked like she was ready to give birth at any moment. Daniel froze for just a second before stepping in front of her, shielding her from me. He explained, "Abby, the Cooper family needs an heir to carry on the lineage. Once the baby is born, everything will go back to the way it was." I heard the certainty in his words. So I smiled, nodded, and quietly tucked my test results away as he stared at me in surprise. On the day she gave birth, I left the divorce papers on the kitchen table and walked out of his life for good.

The competition lasted a full week, from the preliminary rounds to the finals. During that week, I reconnected with old friends and learned what had happened after I left."Elena really brought this upon herself. But the one I feel sorry for is the child. All these years, Daniel has never visited him—not even once.”"His parents sent him over, but he ignored it. I even heard that the kid got seriously ill last month…"Halfway through, my friend suddenly realized they had said too much and quickly stopped talking.I simply smiled, feeling unbothered. None of this had anything to do with me anymore.However, what was starting to bother me was the fact that Daniel showed up every morning with breakfast and every night with supper, like clockwork.Even the other teams had started gossiping, so I knew I could not let this continue.The night before the finals, I went to find him for a talk.His smile froze, and he turned away, resisting eye contact."Can we not talk? Abigail, I kno

Five years later, I took the children from our orphanage to Zyberg for a charity dance competition. I never expected to run into Daniel there.During the competition, he sat on the judge’s panel, looking composed and serious. The moment he saw me, he froze.I was just as surprised, but I quickly regained my composure.Daniel's eyes barely left me for the rest of the event. Even the cameramen seemed to notice something unusual.The more I felt his gaze, the deeper my frown became. When the competition finally ended, I let out a long sigh of relief.Seeing Daniel backstage afterward did not surprise me at all. He looked overwhelmed, his eyes shining with unshed tears.He stared at me, his voice thick with emotion as he said, "Abby… I finally found you."It was as if he had used up all his strength just to say those words—his voice even trembled slightly.I took a deep breath, stepped forward, and extended my hand with a polite smile."Thank you, Mr. Cooper, for supporting this c

The three others were stunned.Daniel's father was furious, and he snapped at him. “What kind of nonsense is this? You ungrateful son! Are you really willing to abandon your parents and your own child just for that woman?”Daniel did not even glance at his parents. He poured himself a drink and said coldly, "That's your grandson. He has nothing to do with me."His child—the one he had truly wanted—was gone. And it was his fault.Elena stepped forward and clung to his arm, tears streaming down her face. "Danny, I was wrong before, but I really love you. I've loved you since the first moment I saw you.”"Now that Abigail is gone, let's be together, okay? I'll treat you even better than she did. Let's give our child a complete family."That was the final straw. Daniel completely snapped.His hand shot out, wrapping around Elena's throat."How dare you say you love me? You're not even worth a single strand of Abigail's hair. I was going to let you go for the sake of the child, but

Daniel could not find Abigail.He had exhausted every possible way to track her down.He called her friends, telling them he had upset Abigail and now could not find her, asking if they had seen her.They all thought he was joking."No way! You two are so inseparable. You're telling me you actually fought?"Abigail has never been the type to get mad at you. What did you do to make her leave?"He was at a loss for words. All he could do was silently hang up the phone.Of course. No one believed that he could have made Abigail angry. Even he could not believe it.Yet the reality was he had messed up beyond repair. He checked her travel records, and there was nothing.She had made sure he would not be able to find her.Abigail was never going to forgive him.That thought alone crushed his chest, making it impossible to breathe.He had no motivation to do anything. He did not even go to work for half a month, and he did not visit the hospital to see the child.All he did was s

Daniel froze, then turned back to the doctor, his voice trembling. “Are you sure? There’s no mistake?”The doctor gave him a puzzled look. “There’s no mistake—you’re Abigail King’s husband, aren’t you? She went through her fourth round of IVF recently.”"She was afraid of disappointing you, so she kept it a secret. She came in for a checkup last month, and this time, it finally worked. She didn't tell you?"You should really treat her well. She went through so much just to carry your child—it wasn't easy at all."The doctor kept talking, but Daniel felt like he had lost his hearing. All other sounds faded into a distant hum.His Abby… was also pregnant.And it was last month… His eyes widened in horror.So that was why she had been at the hospital that day. She had gone to pick up her test results.The very same day she found out she was finally pregnant, she saw him—her husband—accompanying another woman for a prenatal checkup.Not to mention, he had even pushed her.Daniel

Daniel took me to one of his properties. Everywhere I looked, there were signs of two people living together.A pair of slippers—one large, one small—sat neatly by the door. Matching mugs were placed side by side on the table.Everything in this house screamed at me, reminding me that while I had been oblivious, Daniel had built a second home with someone else.Elena noticed the daze on my face and flashed a smug look before speaking softly."Everything here was prepared by Danny. Even the nursery—he oversaw every detail of the renovation.”"Since we don't know the baby's gender, he designed two versions: one pink, one blue. He's so thoughtful, isn't he?"Her voice dripped with pride.Of course, I knew just how thoughtful Daniel was.Otherwise, he would not have managed to do all this right under my nose without me suspecting a thing.Elena continued, "Abigail, if I were you, I'd divorce Mr. Cooper immediately. He loves children. That means he'll be tied to me forever. Doesn't
