Candice POV

“You know,” he said slowly, like he was trying to sound gentle but couldn’t hide the cruelty behind his voice, “Alora’s uterus was badly damaged when she jumped off that building.”

I blinked, confused for a second. “What?”

“She won’t be able to have children anymore,” he added. “That little stunt she pulled… it cost her.”

My mouth parted in shock. I didn’t know what to say.

“She’s infertile now,” he continued with a shrug. “Probably permanent.”

I opened my mouth and shut it again. My heart started beating faster. “So what?” I finally said, forcing the words out. “That doesn’t mean my child will be taken away from me.”

Marcus tilted his head and raised his brows. “Are you sure?”

I narrowed my eyes. “This baby is mine. Mine and Dorian’s. No one is taking him or her away from me.”

He gave me a long, unreadable stare. Then he laughed—quietly.

    Candice’s POVI stood there for a long time.My hands were still trembling.His words hurt more than anything I’d ever felt. And now, all that pain, all that anger inside me… it slowly turned into rageRuby who was still sitting on the floor like a broken doll, crying with her face in her palms. I took two steps toward her with my breathing shaky, and my voice came out rough “Why did you lie, Ruby?”“Why, Ruby?” I repeated, louder this time. My voice cracked. “Why would you say something like that? You knew it wasn’t true! You knew what really happened, and yet you stood there and told Dorian something else entirely. You hurt him.”I pointed at my chest, my voice trembling. “And you hurt me.”Ruby sobbed harder, her whole body shaking. “I… I didn’t mean to… I’m so sorry, Candice…”“Do you think sorry fixes this?” I snapped. “Do you really think that saying I’m sorry will make Dorian believe me now? Will it bring back what we had? What about the trust he had in me? Will it bring back

    Candice’s POV“I didn’t make any deal, Dorian!” I said, my voice shaking, even though I tried hard to keep it strong. “I know you don’t believe me right now, but I swear to you, I didn’t plan any of this with Ruby.”I took a step closer, desperate for him to really see me. “Please, just hear me out. You’ve got to believe me.”But Dorian stood still like a wall. His face was unreadable. “I admit… the only part I’m guilty of is not telling you the full truth. I should’ve told you earlier,” I whispered. “But I didn’t know how. Everything was a mess. I was scared.”I could feel the tears brimming again, but I bit them back.“I didn’t know it was your sample. It was all a one big mixups, Dorian. I swear. Ruby handled everything.. I didn’t know what to do or how to even bring it up. I was going to tell you, I was. But I never, ever made a deal with her.

    Candice’s POVMy whole body was shaking.Dorian was looking at me like he didn’t know who I was anymore. His eyes searched my face, waiting for me to say something. Anything. But I couldn’t even find my voice.I felt like I was drowning in my own guilt.I finally managed to take a step forward and whisper, “Dorian… it was an accident. Please, just let me explain. I swear, it’s not what they’re saying. Please, hear me out…”“An accident?” his stepmother said with a bitter laugh. “How convenient.”She folded her arms and walked toward me with slow steps.“You’re going to call this an accident? You planned it, girl. You and that lying doctor beside you. You knew exactly what you were doing.”“No, it’s not like that!” I said, my voice rising. “Were you that desperate?” she cut in sharply. “That you wanted to trap him with a baby?”I looked at Dorian again, begging with my eyes. “Dorian, please… please look at me. Let me talk to you. I didn’t do this out of greed. It wasn’t meant to happe

    Dorian’s POVCandice was about to speak up of what she wanted to tell me when the door suddenly burst opened. The loud crash from the door slamming open made my heart jump. Candice flinched behind me, and I immediately turned my head toward the entrance.I should’ve known.There she was—my stepmother—storming into the room. Several men in black suits trailed behind her like shadows. Her heels clicked violently against the floor with each furious step.“What the hell do you think you’re doing, Dorian?!” she snapped, her voice filled with anger. “You ruined everything! You humiliated us in front of everyone! Do you even know how much face I’ve lost today?!”I didn’t say anything at first. I just stood there, breathing deeply, trying to stay calm for Candice’s sake.Candice squeezed my hand gently from behind. “You shouldn’t have forced that wedding down my throat,” I said coldly. “You knew it was a lie. All of it. Yet you still tried to tie me to someone like Alora.”She scoffed, tos

    Dorian’s POVI stood there at the altar and I smiled A slow, satisfied smile. My work here was done. “Have a great time in jail and see you soon… in court.” I said to them as I turned around and walked out of that cursed wedding hall Alora was screaming something behind me, her voice sharp and ugly. Her mother was sobbing, and her father, well—he was already in handcuffs. I didn’t bother turning around. I’d had enough of their faces to last me a lifetime.“You’ll regret this, Dorian!” Alora shrieked behind me.“Rot in hell, you bastard!” her father shouted.“You ruined our daughter’s life!” her mother wailed like a dying goat.I didn’t reply.What else was there to say? The show was over. The curtain had closed. The clowns had been dragged off stage.I walked out of that chaotic wedding.

Phones came back up. Eyes widened.The officer didn’t stop. “After thorough investigation, we traced the report and gathered evidence. We’re here to arrest the person responsible for the illegal imprisonment and assault.”Then, slowly, the officers turned… and walked straight toward me.I stepped forward, meeting the lead officer halfway. His face softened when he saw me.“Mr. Dorian,” he said quietly. “Can you confirm that you were the one who sent in the report?”I nodded. “Yes,” I replied simply.“Can you walk me through what happened? From your perspective?” he asked, his tone still calm.“I’ll tell you everything,” I said.I told him about the threats. The cover-ups. The silence money. The beatings. The false suicide act. The ma
