I had been married for eight years when I inherited a fortune worth hundreds of millions that my grandfather left to me and my mafia boss husband. However, just as the lawyer was finalizing the transfer, we discovered my marriage certificate was fake. That meant the entire inheritance could only go to me. “Ms. Rivers, according to the system, you were divorced a year ago. Your husband, Zayn Levine, is legally married to… Whitney Sanders. According to the papers, you're single. In other words, Mr. Levine has no right to claim the inheritance.” Whitney, the woman Zayn had once loved before she went abroad, the one he never forgot. I stared at the lawyer’s message, unable to accept it. All of Zayn’s affection and tenderness over the years had been nothing but a lie. I had planned to tell him on our anniversary that after eight long years of marriage, I was pregnant. It was the miracle we had both been waiting for. Yet it seemed like he had never really been looking forward to it at all. As I gently rested my hand on my belly, I told myself that even if my twins grew up without a father, they would be just fine. In this place built on nothing but lies, the only thing left for me to do was run away.

Zayn, however, was like a man possessed. He did not show up directly in front of me anymore, but no matter where I went, I could feel him following not far behind. I let out a sigh, realizing that if this continued, my trip would never be peaceful. Therefore, I decided to cut my travels short and return home.I carefully avoided him and finally made it safely to my new home in Swizor. I already had a new address and phone number, yet Zayn still managed to find me. He stood at my doorstep, looking exhausted. When he saw me, a flicker of joy crossed his eyes.“Yvonne, you’re finally willing to see me. I’ve been looking for you all this time," he said.I stared at him coldly without saying anything.He begged, “Yvonne, I know I was wrong. Please, give me another chance. The child can’t grow up without a father. Do you want the child to have no dad from the very start?”I placed my hand on my rounded belly and said firmly, “Even without you, I can raise my child. Besides, the chil

After arriving in Swizor, I let everything go. I stopped thinking about Zayn and stopped dwelling on the past. I focused on recovering my health, and at the same time, I went traveling.The scenery here was stunning, the air so crisp and clean it lifted my spirits. I wandered through the mountain range, awed by the majesty of the snow-covered peaks. I strolled along the lake, taking in its serene beauty. I visited Zork and marveled at the vibrance of the city.On this journey, I saw the beauty of the world and came to understand the meaning of life. I realized that life was not just about Zayn. There was a whole wide world beyond him. Looking back, my old life had been painfully dull.One day, I came to a small town and happened to stumble upon a Christmas parade. The streets were dazzling with lights and decorations, buzzing with excitement.People were dressed in festive attire, laughing, dancing, and celebrating. The joy in the air was infectious, and before I knew it, I had joi

Zayn drew in a deep breath and pushed the door open. His eyes were icy as he stared at Whitney and demanded, “What did you just say?”Whitney froze for a moment when she saw him. Panic flashed across her face. “Zayn, you… You heard wrong. I didn’t say anything.”Zayn was not fooled. His gaze swept the room and landed on the phone glowing on the table. He picked it up, feeling his heart turn to ice. On the screen were chat messages between me and Whitney.Whitney: [Yvonne, you bitch, you’d better die out there and never come back!]Whitney: [See this? Zayn made this soup just for me. You’ll never taste it in your life.]Whitney: [You deserve to rot alone, Yvonne!]Each vicious, spiteful line cut into him like a blade. He could not believe that Whitney was such a person.Rage boiled over. His hand lashed out to slap her across the face. “Whore! How dare you treat Yvonne like this?”Stunned, Whitney clutched her cheek, staring at him in disbelief. “Zayn… did you just hit me? For h

I left.Yet Zayn fell apart.Even as he stayed at the hospital to take care of Whitney, he could not focus. All night, the look in my eyes from the night before haunted him. It was a crushing disappointment he had never seen from me before.For the first time, unease clawed at his chest. He pulled out his phone, wanting to call me without thinking.“Zayn, I’d love to have an apple. Will you peel one for me?”Whitney’s voice broke his thoughts. He glanced down at his phone, then at her. In the end, he put the phone away. “All right. I’ll peel it for you.”That night, Zayn stayed by Whitney’s side at the hospital. It was not until the next morning that he finally went home. When he opened the door, the house was empty. All my things were gone.He froze for a moment, then frantically searched the rooms.“Yvonne! Yvonne!”He called my name again and again, but there was no reply. He tore through every corner of the house, but I was not there. He grew frantic, yanked out his phone,

That evening, Zayn brought Whitney home and even cooked dinner himself. Throughout the meal, he kept serving her food and soup, knowing exactly what she liked.“Whitney, this soup is on the milder side, just the way you like it. Here, your favorite fish. Eat more. It’s good for you and the baby.”As I watched their intimate gestures, my eyes stung with unshed tears. I lowered my head and ate in silence. I could not show any reaction as I could not let Zayn see that I was not the same as before.If he saw through my plan to leave, he would never let me go. The fact that I was carrying his kids was also something that he could never know.“Zayn, won’t Ms. Rivers get upset if you take such good care of me?” Whitney cast me a glance and deliberately asked.Zayn froze for a second, then quickly explained, “She won’t be upset. Whitney, you’re pregnant. You need more nutrition. Yvonne is a woman too. She understands.”I lowered my gaze. Not a flicker of emotion showed on my face.After

Fortunately, Whitney’s fall was not serious. After the doctor finished a routine checkup, Zayn brought her back to the ward.I stood at the door, watching him fuss over her, running around to take care of her. At that moment, I felt like the outsider, the one interfering in someone else’s romantic relationship.“Zayn, let Ms. Rivers come in.” Whitney’s weak voice floated out.Zayn glanced at me, but he avoided my gaze, unable to look me in the eye.I took a deep breath and stepped into the ward.“Ms. Rivers, please don’t blame Zayn.” Whitney leaned weakly against the headboard. Her face was pale. “I asked him to bring you here. There are some things we need to talk about.”I pressed my lips together and said nothing.Zayn sat down beside me and held my hand. His face showed a trace of guilt. His lips parted as though he wanted to speak, yet he could not say a word until a moment later.“Yvonne, there are some things I need to make clear to you.” He paused for a moment, then con
