Chapter 4

Auteur: Anonymous
My begging didn't soften her heart. If anything, it made her even more arrogant.

"Then admit you're a man who couldn't handle being alone, that you cheated on me, and that you'll owe me for the rest of your life."

I knew that the moment I said those words, my dignity would be gone for good.

But looking at my daughter in my arms, I still bowed my head.

"It was me! I wronged you. I couldn't handle being alone!"

She was clearly savoring every second of my humiliation.

"Well, you seem sincere

    So much for true love. Once their true colors were exposed, who could keep this absurd act going?I'd been waiting for the moment they turned on each other, and it felt incredibly satisfying.A few minutes later, they were both covered in scratches and bruises.I straightened my clothes and walked out."Since they love fighting so much, lock them in there for a day before letting them out. Let them have a nice heart-to-heart."Owen came up beside me."Your mother-in-law is waiting outside. Would you like to see her?"Bianca's eyes lit up."Great! Everett, you know how good my mom's always been to you. Don't tell me you won't even listen to her!"I glanced at Owen."Send her in."Teresa hurried in. The moment she saw me, the worry in her eyes finally eased."How's Lily?"I nodded."She needs a good long rest, but thankfully, it's nothing too serious.""Mom! Why don't you ask about me first? Are you even my real mother?"But Teresa didn't even glance at her."You're the

    In another room, Owen shoved Marco in front of me. Marco looked up at me, bitter."Everett, let me tell you something. You just got lucky and found a rich woman. If I'd met her first, everything you have now would be mine!"My expression didn't change. "Is that right? Let me be honest with you. Even if you had the chance, you two would never end up together. She'd never look twice at you. Got it?"Marco gave a vicious laugh."Got it, my ass! Let me tell you something. You're a loser. Your wife ran off with another man and I got to have her for free for four years. You're pathetic!"I laughed."So what? You really think I care about a woman who'd sleep with anyone?"Marco snorted."Stop pretending. If you didn't love her, why wouldn't you let her go even after you knew about me?"Actually, Aurelia had asked me the same thing before.I'd known Bianca was rotten to the core, so why couldn't I let her go?I was quiet for a moment.Probably because she'd been with me since she w

    Looking at that shameless face, I thought about the humiliation I'd suffered at the mall today.A flood of emotions surged through me, and I gave a humorless laugh."Bet you really regret not listening to me at the mall now, huh? Otherwise, we could've parted on good terms, and you might still be the high-and-mighty Ms. Moretti."But I could tell Bianca wasn't convinced.She was gritting her teeth, refusing to back down.I shook my head."It's your arrogance that ruined you. If you'd just stayed calm, would it have come to this?""My personality is the problem?"She finally snapped."Fine, I lost. But you didn't win either. All you did was find another rich woman to lean on. You're the real freeloader—a kept man!"A kept man?That was kind of interesting. Nobody had ever dared call me that in my entire life.All she knew was that I was on my own. She had no idea my parents lived in New York and were major players in the business world.Being with me had given Aurelia far m

    At the hospital, I waited anxiously outside Lily's room.A nurse came out, drenched in sweat."Thank goodness Dr. Ames stepped in himself. It was touch and go for a while, but she's stable now. From now on, though, you have to be very careful. She absolutely can't be exposed to any more shocks."I nodded shakily."Tell Conrad not to worry. I won't let anything hurt my daughter again."Aurelia called, and I gently reassured her."She's okay. Conrad's been looking after her health all along. Don't worry."Only then did Aurelia let out a breath."Honey, do you want to come over here? These two keep shouting that they want to see you. They're driving me insane."Just thinking about those two shameless people made me angry.If it weren't for them, my daughter would never have suffered like this.By the time I hurried into the coffee shop, mall security had already sent over today's surveillance footage.It clearly captured everything that had happened at the mall.Aurelia watch

    We rushed to the hospital. When Dr. Ames heard about Lily's condition, he slammed his palm on the desk."This is absurd! Why did you wait until she was this sick to bring her in? Any later and the consequences would've been unthinkable!"Aurelia's voice was shaking. If I hadn't been beside her, comforting her the whole time, she probably would've fallen apart."Conrad, whatever it costs, you have to save my daughter! She means everything to me and my husband!"Dr. Ames shot me an exasperated glare."You! I've watched this child grow up. Do you think this doesn't hurt me too? If I hadn't been managing her health all this time, being unconscious this long would've been as good as a death sentence!"Aurelia pressed him."She won't have any lasting damage, will she?"Dr. Ames sighed."We'll have to keep monitoring her. This was a serious one."All the strength drained out of Aurelia. She leaned against me and sobbed."Honey, what do we do? If anything happens to her, I don't wan

It'd be better if she just died!"With that, she lunged forward to grab Lily from me again.At that critical moment, a familiar perfume filled the air."What are you doing?"Bianca jerked her hands back almost on reflex.The moment Aurelia appeared, all the color drained from Bianca's face."Ms. Voss, what are you doing
