Chapter 9

Author: Wulan
I suddenly felt my heart, which had lain dormant for so long, spring back to life. I reached for Raven's hand and held it gently, saying, "Thank you, Raven. Thank you for standing by me when my life was at its lowest."

Raven nestled into my embrace and said, "I made you a promise a long time ago—that I would come back for you. I'm sorry for coming too late and letting you go through all that pain, Christian."

I never expected Abigail to actually follow us on our honeymoon. She would wait along

    It was then that Raven suddenly retched. I stared at her in a daze, then immediately jumped to my feet in excitement. "Are you pregnant, Raven?"Raven shook her head and replied, "I'm not sure since my period has always been irregular."I immediately picked Raven up in my arms and said, "We're going to the hospital.""Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Fuller. Your family is about to welcome a new addition."I was so overjoyed that I swept Raven up and spun her around before catching myself and gently setting her back down.Raven looked at me affectionately and kissed my hand, saying, "I'm so happy, Christian."Just then, Abigail appeared behind us out of nowhere, looking at me completely despondent. "Christian..."It was then that a nurse rushed over and grabbed her arm, asking, "What are you doing here, Ms. Southall? You need to sign the paperwork since the patient requires surgery!"Abigail was then dragged away by the nurse.It was much later when I found out that Abigail had g

    In the end, Mr. and Mrs. Southall eventually retreated in disgrace.I didn't stop there, though. I took advantage of the freefall in Southall Group's stock and kept buying up their shares, and as a result, when Abigail presided over the shareholders' meeting, the person sitting directly across from her was me.Abigail stared at me in a daze, utterly lost for words. Ethan and Owen sat to her left and right, glaring at me with pure hatred.I glanced at Abigail's slightly swollen belly and sneered, all while Abigail just stared back at me, remaining silent for a long time.I reminded her coldly, "Please present Southall Group's current cash flow statement, Ms. Southall."Abigail pursed her lips tightly, and under the impatient, scrutinizing gazes of the other shareholders, she forced herself to look away. She caught up to me and stopped me once the shareholders' meeting wrapped up. "Can I treat you to dinner tonight, Christian?"She was afraid that I would turn her down, so she adde

I'm sorry for coming too late and letting you go through all that pain, Christian."I never expected Abigail to actually follow us on our honeymoon. She would wait along the path back to my hotel every single day, holding a bouquet of flowers with the stamens carefully snipped off and carrying an exquisite gift.Abigail's eyes would always well with tears the moment she saw me. "I've realized my mistake now, Christian, so please come back to me. I've missed you so much while you've been away. "I swear I'll never do anything to hurt you like that again. I've already kicked Ethan and Owen out, so please come back to my side. I can't live without you, Christian

    I kept my feelings for Abigail hidden for a long time, not daring to return her affection. She spent three years pursuing me before I finally gave in. She spun around me in pure excitement the moment I agreed, overcome with a childlike joy.It was then that the makeup artist knocked on the door and said, "You may change into your attire now, Mr. Fuller."I had just put on my suit when a butterfly settled on my shoulder. I choked up instantly, my eyes blurring with tears. "Is that you, Dad?"Raven appeared behind me without my noticing, gently taking my hand. "I'm sure it's your father, coming specifically to offer us his blessing."She then spoke earnestly to the butterfly, saying, "You can rest assured that I'll take good care of Christian, Dad."She had just finished saying that when the butterfly circled around us several times before flying out the window.I watched through blurry, tearful eyes as it disappeared into the distance before Raven patted my shoulder comfortingly a

    Abigail stated flatly, "You've gotten exactly what you wanted, so get lost now. You'd better not show your faces in front of me again; I don't want Christian getting upset."Ethan abruptly rose to his feet, staring at Abigail in disbelief. "You said you loved us, Abigail! You already divorced Christian, didn't you? How can you kick us out now? Did Christian say something to you? Did he threaten you, Abigail?"In the very next moment, Ethan's face stung with searing pain.Abigail deliberately rubbed her wrist, her gaze utterly cold as she snarled, "I told you to get lost! Is that too hard for you to grasp? You're nothing but cheap amusement I ran after when I had nothing better to do. Did you actually mistake yourselves for some scions in high society?"She then signaled to the bodyguards behind her, who immediately stepped forward, grabbed Ethan and Owen, and threw them out the door.Ethan and Owen banged on the door like madmen. "Do you have some kind of misunderstanding about us

    Raven couldn't help but laugh and squeezed my hand. "You're still just as impatient as you were when we were kids. We'll get married as soon as you're healed up. Mom and Dad have already taken care of the wedding plans, so don't you worry about a thing, Christian."I ended up spending three full months healing under Raven's strict supervision before she finally let me be discharged from the hospital. I had been meticulously looked after and cared for, but the burns on my body inevitably left permanent scars.Raven saw me spacing out as I looked at the scars and reassured me gently. "You have nothing to be worried about. I've found the leading expert in scar removal for you. If we take the recovery step by step, there won't be any scars left later on.""I want to keep them," I said, shaking my head. I needed the scars to remind me of the pain Abigail, Ethan, and Owen inflicted on me. I then looked up at Raven and asked, "Do you find them ugly, Raven?"Raven leaned over to place a ge
