Chapter 7

作者: Forrest Green
Brandon's pupils shrank, as if all the strength had been ripped out of him. He staggered back.

Then he grabbed my wrist again, his nails digging into my skin. "You're lying to me, right? Our daughter… She's still in preschool, right?"

I pried his fingers off one by one, a cold laugh slipping out. "Listen carefully. That day, there was massive bleeding in the operating room. Dwayne signed the consent form to remove my uterus."

Alanna suddenly screamed and rushed forward. "That's impossible! I

  • No Return After Goodbye   Chapter 9

    Brandon's grip on my hand tightened. Before he could even gather his words, Dwayne spoke first."Your company's already being shorted, and you still have time to crash our wedding?"Brandon's face flushed with humiliation. His lips trembled as he clenched his fists. "It was you!"Dwayne let out a cold laugh. "The fact that you're still alive is already my mercy."As he spoke, he slowly pulled out a photo.In it, Alanna's abdomen had been cut open, her body sent off to the black market, reduced to nothing more than a tool.Brandon's face twisted in shock. "I already sent her to a psychiatric hospital! Isn't that enough?""Anyone who hurts Jocelyn pays the price," Dwayne snarled. Brandon tried to speak again, but the next second, Dwayne slammed him to the ground. He lay there, pale as death, looking up at me with desperate eyes.I didn't respond. I just looked down at him, calm and distant."Are you still worried about her? It's just a shame. Everything that happened to her, s

  • No Return After Goodbye   Chapter 8

    On the day of the wedding, I stood in the hotel dressing room, checking my veil one last time.Suddenly, noise broke out in the hallway. Brandon rushed in, dark circles under his eyes, something shattered flickering in his gaze.I kept my face cold and pretended not to see him, but he grabbed my wrist and dragged me out of the dressing room.Ignoring my struggle, he forced the words out, his jaw tight. "Jocelyn, I was wrong. I've already taken care of Alanna's pregnancy and sent her to a psychiatric hospital. I'm begging you. Don't marry another man."Seeing him like this, I let out a quiet, bitter laugh. "Can't you see? I'm marrying Dwayne today. If you can't stand the idea of me marrying someone else, then what about the three years you disappeared? You faked your death and left me behind without a second thought."Even after everything I said, he just stared at me, as if he hadn't heard a word. He pulled me into his arms, gripping me tightly despite my struggle."Please fo

Dwayne signed the consent form to remove my uterus."Alanna suddenly screamed and rushed forward. "That's impossible! I had people watching outside the delivery room…!"She clamped a hand over her mouth, eyes wide as she looked at Brandon.Dwayne let out a quiet laugh. "So that's why my bodyguards kept telling me someone was watching Jocelyn that day. Turns out it was you."His voice wasn't loud, but every word landed like a blade. The way he looked at Alanna felt like a death sentence.The air went still.Brandon slowly turned, his neck cracking as he moved. The way he looked at Alanna was like she was alre

    Brandon stood there, frozen. For the first time, I saw shock and hurt in his eyes. His hand trembled as he stepped closer, prying my hand out of Dwayne's grip. "What did you just say? Is our child really gone?"The bloody and chaotic memory of that day flashed through my mind. My eyes burned.There was a time he would wrap his arms around my belly, smiling as he said, "If it's a boy, we'll name him Ethan. If it's a girl, Lily."When they took the baby from me, everything had already been fully formed.A quiet sob slipped out, but my voice stayed cold. "It was a girl, Brandon. Do you regret it?"I met his shattered gaze.Three years of grief I had never spoken out loud. Now that it was finally out, it felt hollow, as if the truth had lost its weight.His throat shook as he forced the words out, one by one. "I don't believe you! You're lying to me, right? This is just something you made up so you can be with Dwayne, isn't it?"There was a stubborn edge in his face.Whether he

    Brandon's eyes were bloodshot, obsession twisting his expression into something almost frightening. Even his voice trembled. "What did you just say? She's your fiancée?"Alanna glanced at Dwayne, then sneered, piling it on without hesitation. "Brandon, this has to be another one of Jocelyn's tricks! That man is obviously her lover. Don't waste time talking to them. They're bold enough to sneak around already. Who knows what they've been up to these past three years while you were gone?""Enough!"Dwayne's hand came down hard across her face.The slap stunned her. She froze for a second, then stomped her foot, humiliated and furious. "Brandon, make him pay for that!"Brandon stared at Dwayne, hesitation flickering across his face before he finally spoke."Jocelyn, can you stop this? This is someone you hired to put on a show, isn't it? If you wanted to get a reaction out of me, congratulations. You did. Now stop. Come home with me and bring our kid back. I promise I'll treat y

    I was dragged into the restroom like dead weight, my whole body reeking of urine.Alanna let out a cold laugh beside me, then tilted my chin up with a mocking look."Every time I see your face, it makes me want to throw up."I glared at her, but the next second, her hand cracked across my face. The sting burned hot, my cheek instantly flushing red.She leaned in closer, voice low and cruel. "What do you think would happen if Brandon walked in and saw you messing around with other men in here? Do you think he'd feel disgusted every time he saw your face after that?"Fear shot through me. Looking at the expression on her face, I knew she meant every word.I collapsed to the floor, my voice breaking as I begged, "I'm already engaged to the eldest son of the Elledges. I don't love Brandon anymore."She ignored me completely, her smile bright as she gestured behind her. Two large men stepped forward."Only if you're truly ruined will Brandon finally give up on you. Oh, and I forgo
