Semua Bab I Saw the Comments — Now He’s Finished: Bab 1 - Bab 9

The floating comments in my mind didn't stop.[See? Now she even has to be their delivery girl.][When will Camille figure it out? That she's just part of Nigel and Alice's little game?]I shook my head hard, convinced it was just my imagination, but the words kept coming.[Camille would do anything to win Nigel over. You don't even need to guess.][Camille climbed into his bed back then—this is just karma catching up to her.][Wake up, Camille! Nigel never loved you.][And yet, Camille's still dumb enough to think confessing she's the hospital director's daughter will somehow fix things!]It wasn't my imagination. The words were there, and their weight pressed down on me, leaving me dazed and speechless.I had been married to Nigel Park for only a year. He wasn't romantic, but he was thoughtful—at least, I thought so.He avoided company events if women were present, just to keep me at ease. He never lost his temper with me, and he even remembered the exact dates of my period

My response seemed to freeze the comments for a moment. Then, multiple messages appeared all at once.[???????][The villainess is pregnant??? And she's actually choosing to terminate it?!!!][Has Camille finally come to her senses? Is she leaving Nigel?][Is Camille finally stepping aside for the heroine???][Wait, why do I suddenly feel sorry for Camille?]Penny looked at me, startled, but in the end, she didn't try to persuade me further. Instead, she brought me the surgical consent form as I requested.An hour later, I woke up in the hospital bed. Penny handed me my phone. "Nigel kept calling you. Maybe he wants to apologize. You should at least listen to what he has to say."I put the call on speaker. The first thing Nigel said was, "Camille, is your phone just for decoration? Stop this nonsense and come back home. Alice feels so guilty because of you that she hasn't been sleeping well. Hurry back and apologize to her!"When I didn't respond, his voice turned impatient. "

The comments erupted with indignation. [Why?! What's wrong with this guy?!][He doesn't love her, yet he won't agree to a divorce! How greedy can he be?][What a fucking good slap! That felt satisfying!]The slap echoed crisply through the hallway. Nigel stood frozen, clutching his cheek, disbelief written all over his face. Alice seized the moment to let out a dramatic scream. "Nigel, are you okay?!"Snapping back to his senses, Nigel grabbed my wrist. His lips trembled as he spoke. "Camille, where have you been these past few days? I was only accompanying Alice for a prenatal checkup. It doesn't mean anything."The comments took my side immediately. [Nigel is downright disgusting! Cheating and playing innocent?!][And that pretentious Alice should just get lost! She's so annoying!]"Nigel..." Alice tugged at his sleeve, tears streaming down her face, making her look pitiful. "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have broken up with you or left in a fit of anger. I've regret

The moment I stepped back into the hospital and slipped on my white coat, I felt alive again.I resumed my work as an obstetrician, doing what I loved—welcoming new lives into the world and witnessing the quiet miracles of existence. It gave my days a sense of purpose, a rhythm I had almost forgotten.Two months later, Alice appeared before me once more. Her belly was big and round, heavy with pregnancy. Behind her stood Nigel, his face clouded with gloom. The sight of me seemed to catch him off guard; his expression darkened a shade deeper.Alice, on the other hand, carried herself with ease, even with a hint of provocation. "Camille, long time no see. I didn't expect to run into you here. The baby's almost due—I was thinking, would you be the godmother? Surely, you wouldn't refuse?"I offered her a tight smile. "Miss Roth, you must be joking. We're hardly acquainted."Feigning hurt, she stroked her belly. "Camille, are you still angry with me? I know I was wrong before, but the

The air suddenly grew heavy. Alfie paused, his gaze sweeping over the crowd before finally settling on Alice. He spoke slowly, each word deliberate, as if carving them into stone."I checked every hospital in this city over the past few days, including private clinics and maternity centers. I couldn't find a single record of Alice Roth undergoing regular prenatal checkups." He stopped for a breath before continuing. "Moreover, I have evidence here." He raised a folder. "These are surveillance photos showing Alice frequently entering bars late at night. In the most recent one, it was the night before she came to our hospital for a prenatal exam."It was only then that I realized how much Alfie had done behind the scenes.Nigel's face turned ghostly pale. His hand trembled as he released Alice's arm and whispered urgently, "Alice, let it go.""Let it go?!" Alice erupted, her voice slicing through the silence. She pointed at Nigel, tears streaming down her face."You're just le
