The 10-Million Dollars Divorce: My Missing Wife, Her Hidden Pregnancy, and My Regret

Hannah’s POV“Congratulations, you’re pregnant. And it’s twins. Your husband Ethan is going to be shocked.”Dr. Mitchell’s words kept echoing in my head.“I can’t believe it. Is this actually happening? I’m pregnant… with twins?”My mind went completely blank. Ethan and I had been married for three years, doing everything we could in hopes of having a child. I had dreamed of this moment for so long. I never imagined it would come as a double miracle.On the ride home from the hospital, I stared out the window and kept imagining how I would tell Ethan. I pictured his warm, crinkled smile and the way he would look genuinely overjoyed while pretending to be embarrassed. I couldn’t wait to see that expression.Even our longtime driver noticed something different about me.“Miss Hannah, did something wonderful happen today? You’ve been smiling to yourself since earlier.”“Yes. Something truly beautiful and life-changing happened.”My husband, Ethan Harrison, is the young CEO of the

Hannah’s POVThe next morning, I dragged my heavy body out of bed like an empty shell.The woman staring back at me in the mirror looked pale and unrecognizable.I wished everything that happened last night had just been a bad dream.I hadn’t slept at all. The shock of it kept replaying in my head.With a foggy mind, I stared down at the divorce papers.Was the ten million settlement a sign of how deeply he cared for Linda, or was it simply hush money for a woman he believed had married him for his money?Did he want me gone that badly?There was no answer. All I knew was that his heart was no longer anywhere near me.I didn’t care about the settlement itself.What hurt was realizing Ethan wanted the divorce so much that he put a number like that on the table.I didn’t have the strength to fight him. And with the children growing inside me,I chose not to resist his demands.He wasn’t in the living room or the bedroom.When I asked the butler, he said Ethan had come home f

Ethan’s POV“Hannah was pregnant…? No way… Are you telling me I pushed her out of my life when she was in that condition? Tell me, how is she now? Where is she?"I hurried toward Dr. Mitchell, who had been arguing with Steven, and demanded answers about Hannah’s condition."For patient privacy, I cannot tell you anything. You’re her husband. You should ask her yourself."I had only just learned she was pregnant. There was no way I could contact her. Dr. Mitchell knew that, yet he still threw those cold words at me. He was the Jefferson family’s physician. Even though the Harrisons were connected to them by marriage, his loyalty would always be to the Jeffersons. There was no chance he would talk to me about Hannah."Then if you’ll excuse me."Snatching the documents back in irritation, Dr. Mitchell turned and left the room.Meanwhile, Linda had come to the office again that day, determined to get Ethan to take her back. But as she approached the door, she heard him shout in shoc

Ethan’s POVKnock, knock.When Steven and I turned toward the sound, Linda was standing in the doorway of the executive office."Ethan? Did you hear what Dr. Mitchell said? I can’t believe it. I never imagined my sister was pregnant…""How do you know about that?""I ran into Dr. Mitchell on my way here. It didn’t make sense for him to be at your company, so I asked why. Then he told me my sister was pregnant.""I see… He didn’t say it outright, but he didn’t deny it either. I’m sure it’s true."When I answered in a low voice, Linda’s voice began to tremble, and tears filled her eyes."And on top of that… the father isn’t you. When I think about how you must feel, it just breaks my heart. I’m so angry for you, I can’t stand it…""What? What did you just say? Linda? Is that true?""Yes. I heard it from Dr. Mitchell. And if that’s really the case, then it all makes sense, doesn’t it? My sister left because she got pregnant with another man’s child. Otherwise there’s no reason s

Linda’s POVI replayed everything that had happened at Ethan’s company earlier when I returned home."When I realized Hannah was pregnant, I panicked for a second. But I handled it perfectly. Now Ethan won’t care about that baby at all, and he won’t believe anything anymore."I had listened in on Ethan, Steven, and Dr. Mitchell talking in the office, so I grasped the situation immediately. I tried to corner Dr. Mitchell afterward to get details, but he wouldn’t give me anything. Still, I told Ethan and Steven that I had heard it from him and made it sound like the baby belonged to another man and that my sister had disappeared because she was unfaithful."Heh… I really am smart. And the story about being the Jefferson family’s daughter, so Dr. Mitchell would confide in me? That was a good touch. Ethan and Steven didn’t even look into who the father might be, so they couldn’t argue back."She was pleased with herself, proud that her quick thinking had shaken Ethan and Steven so eas
