The Child Between Us Chapter 10 New Family
Tim started incessantly asking to meet up with me after that eventful night. He even bought out all the ad slots in the whole city to apologize and confess his feelings for me. I turned a blind eye to it all.After all, his love came far too late, at far too great a price. His gestures didn't move me in the slightest. If anything, they only intensified my hatred for him. Although I had pulled out all the stops to ruin him, I had kept one piece of evidence away from the public eye during that night.That piece was all the IVF treatment sessions I'd gone through after the marriage.The Brook family had great power over the medical world, and every IVF session was supervised and completed by the staff of the hospitals they owned. Yet, I failed every single one of them.I used to think it was my problem, but I realized that those IVF procedures I'd been through weren't standard practice at all. I could've become a mother, but someone made sure every single treatment failed.It didn'
The Child Between Us Chapter 9 Taken Away
Henry and I strutted away from the scene like triumphant peacocks, leaving the fiasco behind us.Tim hurried after us and stopped our car. He begged me not to leave. "Please, don't leave. The papers don't count! I never wanted this divorce. We can start again. Zoe's right. I've had a change of heart. Please, give me another chance."Tim's eyes were red rimmed, and his knuckles were white as he clenched his fists around the door.I said nothing, so he scrambled to fish out a box from the inner pocket of his suit. It was a sapphire necklace. "It's our sixth anniversary today, and I got you a present. Please, stop throwing a tantrum. Stop joking around, please? You've never refused me, Yvonne. Please."The sapphire gleamed brightly under the silvery moonlight. It reflected in Tim's eyes and made them glow with more love than ever.I wanted to say no, but something caught the corner of my eye. That was when I saw a crowd huddling around us after Zoe had been taken away by the cops.T
The Child Between Us Chapter 8 Zoe Punished
"I only did it because you had a change of heart! You promised you'd love me forever, but you married her instead! You changed so much after that!"Zoe's answer came out in short, broken parts. Her eyes were already bloodshot from being strangled by her furious lover.Tim froze and abruptly loosened his grip around her neck. He was rooted to his spot, unable to look at me. Perhaps that was because Zoe's words had exposed his true feelings to the world.Henry lapped up the drama like it was the prime entertainment. He even nudged me playfully with his elbow, making me roll my eyes at him.Still, I interjected calmly, "I couldn't care less whose child it is, but you'll pay for your murder, Zoe!"The news hit the crowd like a bombshell. Everyone's eyes fell on Zoe, and the livestream exploded.At the same time, sirens from police cars blared through the air.Zoe's legs buckled, and she crumpled to the ground. When a group of cops came barging in, Zoe scrambled over to Tim like a di
The Child Between Us Chapter 7 Not Their Daughter
"Do something, Tim! The Internet's spewing all sorts of stuff at me!" Zoe was panicking, for once. She feigned fury and demanded that Tim give her justice, wanting him to tap into his connections to cover up for her.Alas, she'd forgotten one crucial detail. Tim's family was now also embroiled in scandals of their own. Therefore, Tim was busy dealing with the stakeholders' incessant calls.Oh, but my revenge had just begun. This wasn't enough. Far from it, in fact. The pile of evidence of their underhanded dealings aside, someone must be punished for my father's death.Zoe eventually realized Tim was too busy to help, and the Internet was getting more relentless with their bullying. So, she started a livestream and cooked up a sob story, telling everyone Cece was her daughter and pleaded for mercy for the Brooks."Come at me if you want to vent your rage!"Some actually lapped that story up. A significant part of the Internet was shipping her and Tim, calling them a star-crossed c
The Child Between Us Chapter 6 Retaliation
The video showed Tim playing with Cece when I wasn't around. In that video, Cece could speak, and she spoke fluently.Everyone was flabbergasted."What is going on?"I stepped forth and crouched before the girl. Then, I asked softly, "Tell us, have you really been unable to speak until now?"Cece looked at me and was about to answer when Zoe coughed loudly, causing the girl to shut her mouth. Then, she immediately burst into tears.Tim picked the girl up and told someone to take her away. I spread my arms and stopped them. This confrontation was going to happen whether they liked it or not.Tim's chest was heaving with rage, but he tried his best to rein in his temper. "Cece can only speak thanks to Zoe. Don't start any nonsense!"The guests backed them up."Everyone knows Zoe's a great doctor. That's why Mr. Brook wanted her to be the godmother.""Yeah, but someone's a jealous harpy. That someone even stole Zoe's husband and isn't even grateful that Zoe healed her daughter. P
The Child Between Us Chapter 5 Drama Queens
Henry and I were denied entry when we arrived at the venue. Soon, familiar figures showed up before us. Zoe had her arm looped around Tim's, and her other hand was holding Cece. They looked like the perfect family.The sight of me wiped Tim's smile off his face as he frowned in displeasure. He noticed Henry holding me up and fell into his habit of starting a lecture. "You should be at home, reflecting on your mistakes, not hanging around with his lot."Then, he scanned Henry coldly. "I heard you picked my lock, injured my housekeeper, and absconded with my wife. I should've called the cops, but I didn't. Now, you're going to mess up Zoe's welcoming party? I will make you pay!"Zoe held her head high, and every inch of her body shouted arrogance. Of course, she was haughty. Tim was already doing all the work for her without her even saying a single word.Henry couldn't stand that man anymore. Before I could say anything, he waved the documents and shrugged. "Guess we're not welcom
