Chapter 11

Callista was captured in the corner of the photo. She was standing alone as she witnessed everything unfold.That image shattered the last shred of hope Luther had held onto. She had seen it all with her own eyes. How could he possibly explain it away now?The lie he thought was flawless was laid bare. His claim that he had no feelings for Wren, that he only chose her because she reminded him of Callista—everything unraveled.Every sign he had ignored in recent days suddenly became painfully clear.Had Callista discovered the truth the day she returned to the Spencer residence for dinner? Or had she known even earlier?And during all these days since, how much had she suffered?He had sworn to love her forever and vowed never to let her feel sadness.When did it all begin to change?Luther's eyes turned red, and his vision blurred with tears. He thought back to their first child—the one lost at seven months, leading to an induced labor.He knew the cause. It was the so-called

"This can't be. Callista wouldn't do this to me," Luther muttered to himself.Callista was so soft-hearted; there was no way she could be this cruel.He didn't even dare think about what the document she had handed him to sign yesterday morning really was.Still unwilling to give up, Luther called Callista's attending physician."Didn't you know? Your wife came in alone yesterday morning to have an abortion," Eve said.Luther's bloodshot eyes grew darker as he hoarsely asked, "Did… Did she say anything else?""Not much. Just that before the procedure, she asked if the baby would feel any pain," Eve replied.She paused before continuing, "Mrs. Spencer didn't seem to know her previous miscarriage was caused by drinking the wrong herbal medicine."Luther collapsed into a chair as the metallic taste of blood filled his mouth. Jane's expression turned livid beside him."What kind of woman did you marry? That was the Spencer family's child, and she actually dared to abort it!"Luth

Chapter 13

Luther stumbled forward and clung to the woman, wrapping his arms around her tightly."Don't leave me. Please, I'm begging you…""Luther, how could I ever leave you?" Wren's voice poured over him like a bucket of icy water."Madam Spencer said you've been locking yourself in this room. I was so worried about—ah!"Before she could finish, Luther's hands were already around her neck. His furious eyes were burning as if he wanted to tear her apart."How dare you show your face here! Did you tell Callista something? Is that how she found out?" he roared.Jane burst into the room. She was desperately trying to pry Luther's grip off Wren. "Let go! She's carrying your child!"However, Luther wouldn't let go.Panicked, Jane shouted, "Even if you kill her, will Callista come back?"Those words drained all the strength from Luther. His grip loosened, and Wren collapsed onto the floor. She gasped for air."Luther, you have to believe me. I didn't tell her anything."I've always known y

Chapter 14

Jane and Luther's father, Seamus Spencer, had been high school sweethearts. They were renowned for being the perfect couple.But in the video playing on the screen, the ever-devoted Seamus was seen holding a young woman in his arms. The woman was in her early 20s, and her smile bore an uncanny resemblance to a younger Jane.Jane stormed into the living room and slapped Seamus across the face. Hers turned pale as tears streamed down her cheeks."How could you do this to me? Explain yourself!""Am I not doing what you're doing? You brought Wren into our son's life. At least I'm better than you—I'm not having a baby with her who'll call you 'Mom,'" Seamus retorted.Seamus shoved Jane aside and walked out, leaving her trembling and crying."I've been with your father for 43 years! We've been married forever. What did I do wrong? Where is his conscience?" Jane wailed."And what about Callista? What did she do wrong?" Luther's voice cut through her cries. His eyes were filled with fur

Chapter 15

The pregnancy photo had been sent by Wren.The rose garden? It was Wren who lured Callista there.Callista had even known about Luther sneaking out at night to be with Wren. Even that day at the Caldwell residence—Callista had seen everything.All the details Luther had ignored in the past few weeks came flooding back, and they were vividly clear.Just before Callista blocked Jane's number, Jane had mocked her for being barren.And what had he done? He'd assumed Callista wouldn't hear about it, so he chose to let it slide. Right after, he'd even scolded Callista for blocking Jane.Luther clutched his chest as the pain tore through him, making it hard to breathe.Every incident, and every moment that he inflicted upon her… If he had been in her place, he would have gone mad long ago.He couldn't even imagine how Callista had endured those days—especially while carrying his child.What had he done to her? Every wound, and every humiliation Callista endured, had come from him.T

Luther staggered as the ashtray hit him, and he instinctively loosened his grip. Bright red blood streamed from his head and stained half his face.Wren's legs buckled in fear as she scrambled to escape, clawing and kicking at the floor. But she didn't get far—Luther grabbed her and yanked her back.Realizing there was no way out, Wren decided to throw caution to the wind."Haven't you done enough, Luther? Two of Callista's children are already dead because of you. Now, you want to kill your third?"Luther froze as if he was rooted to the spot. Wren then stopped struggling and smiled up at him mockingly."What's the matter, Luther Spencer? Now that she's left you, you suddenly want to cherish her?"Too bad—it's far too late."Blood continued to drip from Luther's head. The color was stark against his pale, ghostly face. His eyes were hollow as he staggered toward the door.The moment he left, Wren lunged to lock it behind him. Her phone suddenly buzzed with a notification.A t

Kai shuddered at Luther's words."I did it… I did it for my sister," he stammered."She's been doing IVF for four years. Her health's been deteriorating, and your mother's been putting so much pressure on her. I was afraid she wouldn't be able to bear it."If she adopted Wren's child, it would shut your family up and give her a way out."Luther threw a punch. It landed squarely on Kai's face. He continued with a vicious kick that knocked Kai to the ground.He didn't hold back. He was raining blow after blow until he finally stopped while breathing heavily."Was it really for her? Or was it for yourself?""Of course, it was for—" Kai started to argue, but Luther cut him off with a cold laugh."I helped you start your business, and you got a taste of success. You went along with hiding the truth from your sister because you wanted to curry favor with me, to secure more of my support."Kai, ask yourself this. Would your sister ever have wanted you to help her like this?"The har

Chapter 18

Kai pulled out the IV needle and made his way to the maternity ward. He searched every corner until he finally found Wren standing by the elevator."Wren," Kai called out.Wren stared at his bruised and swollen face for several seconds before recognizing him.She instinctively stepped back while protecting her belly. "What happened to you?""Luther was in a bad mood and took it out on me. What about you? Are you about to give birth?"Kai's eyes fell on her stomach, and his tone softened. "Luther's anger will pass. This is the Spencer family's only child. They won't just ignore you."Wren, I've helped out a lot regarding you and Luther. Now that my sister's gone, you're the only one who can say something good about me to Luther."Wren finally smiled. "As long as you're sensible, these things are easy to handle. I always repay any kindness shown to me.""Where are you heading now?" he continued to ask."I'm going to the 17th floor for an ultrasound.""That's just one floor up,"

Chapter 19

"Honey, everyone who hurt you has paid the price. As long as you come back, I'll accept whatever you want me to do. Please, come back, okay?" Luther posted.The post only confirmed the suspicions of the online community. His resignation as CEO was now inevitable.Arthur opened his mouth as if to speak but ultimately said nothing. Instead, he took the PR plans from the table and left. Before walking out, he gave Luther one last look and sighed.If he had known this day would come, why did he act so recklessly before?At this moment, nothing mattered to Luther except Callista.The public tore into him mercilessly online, with curses ranging from losing the love of his life to wishing him a miserable death.In his self-inflicted torment, Luther scrolled through every comment. He was hoping to find even the smallest clue about Callista.But after scrolling from dawn to dusk, he still found nothing. His despair deepened.He had mentioned Wren's child to Kai on purpose. It was a desp

Chapter 20

"Mr. Spencer?" the household staff called out.Luther finally took the envelope. He held it for a long time before summoning the courage to open it. Inside was a divorce certificate.For days, Luther had avoided thinking about the document Callista had given him to sign the morning she left. He hadn't dared to consider what it might have been.But now, the truth was laid bare. It crushed him completely. Wren caught sight of the divorce certificate and burst into laughter."Luther, she's so done with you. You deserve this! I can't wait to see what kind of ditch you'll end up in."Luther didn't respond. He ignored her taunts as he stared blankly at the certificate. Seeing no point in staying, Wren turned and left.Outside, the same face that had once connected her to Luther now drew scorn from strangers."That must be Wren. Looks like she's been kicked out. Serves her right for being the other woman.""I heard she lost the baby too. Karma, huh?""Poor child, though, being born t
