Eight Months Pregnant: Living as the Police Chief's Secret のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 8

Harvey was stumped. His lips parted, but not a single word came out.The crowd, consisting of elites and their families, were so stunned that they were speechless. The air was thick with tension. Suddenly, a baby's cry sliced through the silence, jolting everyone. Marilyn quickly took the baby in her arms and calmed him down. Then, she turned to me, shouting, "You're insane, Sadie! What right do you have to come and harass my son when you're already divorced? If you have any shame, get out of here right now. You wouldn't want to offend one of the officials here and end up in jail, would you?"Nancy also jumped in to reprimand me. "Divorced or not, you can't just assault someone in public! And technically, you assaulted a police officer!"As soon as the crowd realized who I was, the whole room erupted into chaos. Everyone started yelling, saying I should be locked up and taught a lesson.I frowned and grabbed Harvey by the collar, ready to ask him how I had gone from being his w

Hearing the genuine indignation in my voice, the high-ranking officials began doubting themselves."Hold on… That woman's not actually the legitimate wife, is she? That would make Chelsea the homewrecker… No wonder they hid the news of their wedding!""Just check out the way Harvey looks at her—he looks guilty! Maybe the baby is actually his…"The chatter in the living room grew louder, making Harvey's already guilty face flush shades of red.As I felt the baby's heartbeat growing faint in my belly, I knew I couldn't afford to argue with them anymore. All I wanted was to get out of there quickly."Look at me, Harvey! All you have to do right now is give me Skyler and send me to the hospital. As long as the baby's fine, I promise you I won't hold it against you. We'll file for divorce—amicably."As soon as I said that, Marilyn smashed a wineglass on my head. The glass shards tore into my cheek."Shut your mouth!" she screamed. "Why would anyone listen to a psychotic witch? Get th

"Commissioner Walker, I swear things aren't as they seem! It's just that Sadie can be overly headstrong sometimes, and I was only trying to take the edge off her! "I didn't intend to actually hurt her… Oh, and I would've sent her to the hospital regardless of whether you came—"Before Harvey could finish, Dad gave him a brutal kick that sent him crashing to the floor. "You piece of shit! Who are you to discipline my daughter?"I could tell Dad's eyes had turned red from holding back his tears. Sensing that my condition was deteriorating quickly, he shot Harvey one final warning. "You bastard. If anything happens to Sadie or the baby, I swear you won't walk out of here alive!"He carried me and turned to leave.I ignored the whispers and gasps around me. Instead, I swept my gaze over Chelsea, Marilyn, and every single person who had hurt me."Just you wait," I muttered coldly. "I'll come back and settle the score for every single thing you did to me today."With that, Dad carrie

Fate finally smiled on us. Just two weeks later, Edward tracked down our precious Jonah to a remote fishing village. The DNA test confirmed a 99% match—he was my son.I cried all night, leaving my eyes swollen the next morning. I couldn't wait for Edward to bring Jonah home.Just as we stepped out the door to welcome Jonah back, we ran into Harvey. He looked haggard, dirty, and lifeless.When he saw me, his expression flickered with a mix of regret, resentment, and grief. He staggered toward me and, in a desperate gesture, collapsed onto his knees before my feet.Dad didn't hesitate to kick him away. "This is your last warning, Harvey. Get out of here and stop harassing my daughter!"The bodyguards nearby soon surrounded Harvey, ready to drag him away, but I raised a hand to stop them."Dad…"After six long years of entanglement, I felt there ought to be closure between Harvey and me. Dad understood what I meant and quietly stepped away, giving us space.Across from me, Harvey
