1 Layla Patel ~•~ “You know he isn’t coming back, should I just refrigerate the food?” I held back a scornful scoff as I watched the maid walk towards the dining table to pack up the food I had spent my entire day preparing for my husband. I couldn’t even stop her from touching the food because she was right. Lucas wasn’t coming back home. I thought he would make an exception since it was our third wedding anniversary. But I was wrong. Lucas didn’t care about me. To him, our marriage was just for convenience. He only got married to me because his family forced him. I also had no choice but to marry a man I knew nothing about. Lucas had made it clear to me that he wasn’t in love with me and would never be. But I was delusional enough to think he would change his mind as the years passed by. It had been three years but nothing had changed. Even though we shared a room on the nights he saw fit to sleep at home, it still felt like we were strangers under th

3 Lucas Brown ~•~ Layla knew exactly what she was getting into when she agreed to be my wife. Throughout our three years together, I never led her on or even gave her any hope that I might fall in love with her. She knew that my heart belonged to Sophia. Sophia was my first love. She was the only woman I had fallen in love with throughout my twenty-six years on earth. But my family didn’t approve of Sophia. By my family, I meant my grandmother. She always made it clear that she wouldn’t be in support of my relationship if I ever considered starting a family with Sophia. My grandmother wanted me to settle down with a good and quiet girl. She didn’t like Sophia’s line of work because she felt she was too exposed to the world. She had no idea that Sophia’s exposure was exactly what I needed to make the family business thrive. I needed all the publicity I could get. I loved my grandmother and she knew I would always listen to her. So I had no option but to marry

5 Layla Patel ~•~ Would he really ask the security to throw me out if I refused to sign the papers? So he wasn’t joking? It wasn’t a prank? He actually wanted me to sign the papers and end the marriage? My chest tightened and I felt an excruciating pain as I thought about everything. I wanted to run after him. I wanted to talk to him and make him realize that he was making a mistake. But I was too stunned to even speak. It felt like my legs were glued to the ground. I couldn’t move. I was starting to realize how real it was - how serious Lucas was. He didn’t even have an ounce of sympathy for me. He didn’t care about how I felt. He only thought about himself. I picked up my phone and called my best friend again. “He said he would ask security to help me out if I’m still at the house when he returns from work.” My voice was shaking as I told her about it. Olivia sighed. “So you still won’t sign it?” I exhaled heavily as I ran my hands through my hair. “

Chapter 7 Layla Patel ~•~ “What?” I asked, my voice cracking slightly. Lucas already mentioned something about proposing to her, but I had no idea it was so soon. I hadn’t even signed the papers. Technically, we were still married. “Yes, Layla. Send me your location, I’ll meet you at the hospital.” “But what of the baby? Our baby?” I asked, my voice barely audible. “Layla! Just send the location. We will talk about everything in person.” Olivia added with a sense of urgency in her voice. I exhaled heavily and nodded. “Okay, I’ll send it right away,” I responded with tears in my voice. After the call ended, I sent Olivia a PIN of my exact location. I was tempted to check the news, but I knew it wasn’t a good idea. I was already hurt and looking at the comments would break me even further. My heart was racing as I thought about everything. I felt an excruciating pain in my chest that wouldn’t go away. I decided to try Lucas’s number again. Maybe he would

Chapter 9 Layla Patel ~•~ I stood frozen in my spot. Why on earth would Lucas think I was making up the news about being pregnant? I knew the timing was weird but I felt he would have some sympathy or something. He didn’t even care to look at the test results, he didn’t even care to look at me. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, I held his hand to prevent him from leaving. “Lucas, please,” I begged, my voice faint. “I spent two days in the hospital. I’m not lying about the baby. You can take me to your personal doctor to conduct another test if you wish.” Lucas clicked his fingers. “I don’t care if you are actually pregnant or not. I’m done with this marriage.” His voice was firm. “And if you’re truly pregnant, it’s probably for some other man.” I felt like I had been punched in the gut. I had never cheated on Lucas. No matter how he treated me, I always stayed loyal to him. And Lucas knew that. He knew that I wouldn’t even dare cheat on him. It wa
