Semua Bab The Weight of His Favor: Bab 1 - Bab 10

After three years of marriage, I finally got pregnant—my mafia husband treated me like his queen.Every day felt like heaven, until she came back—his first love, Eloise Rosenveil.On his birthday, after answering Eloise’s usual call, he turned to me and said softly,“Darling, you’ve been working so hard carrying our child. There’ll be too many people at the party—I don’t want you to get hurt.”But that day wasn’t just his birthday.It was our one-thousandth day of marriage.So I decided to surprise him anyway. I baked a mango cake and went to the party.Only to find him playing a kissing game with Eloise, surrounded by laughter and cheers.When he rushed to explain himself, Eloise, consumed by jealousy, pushed me—and I lost the baby.With the child gone, my heart died too.Since he had always loved his first love, I decided to grant his wish and walk away.But why… why did Lawrence lose his mind searching for me everywhere after I left?……On the 28th birthday of my mafia husband, Lawr

I explained weakly, "I'm not lying. I'm at the hospital right now. If you don't believe me, come see for yourself—""You were perfectly fine a little while ago, and now you're saying you're in the hospital? At least come up with a better excuse. You've genuinely let me down, Sylvie!" Lawrence said coldly before hanging up on me.Tears cascaded down my cheeks as I called him repeatedly. Ultimately, I took a picture of my blood-stained clothes and sent it to him. I’d just sent it, and then Lawrence’s call came through.Eloise's smug voice came through the line."Sylvie, your lie is pretty convincing. I can't believe you even got a doctor to play along with you. The pictures came out great, too."Lawrie's out shopping for clothes for me right now, and his phone is with me. I've already deleted those pictures. Did you really think you could use your baby as leverage to make him cave in? "I won't let you have what you want!"My heart sank. "If you want Lawrence, you can have him. I simply

Lawrence had been a little restless for the past two days. It had been a long time since I last called him—something that had never happened before.In the past, whenever he was away for more than two hours, I would call or text him. If he had a late night out drinking, I'd have a hangover remedy, a warm towel, and clean clothes ready for him. My whole world revolved around him to the point that I'd neglected my own social life and friends.He'd gotten used to me fussing over him, so he kept glancing in the direction of his phone until Eloise took it away from him. "Sylvie is acting up because she knows you can't leave her. Why else hasn't she reached out first? She knows you're waiting for her call."Looking at his dark expression, Eloise deliberately let out a long sigh. "It's all my fault. I'm the reason you two argued. I'll apologize to Sylvie. Maybe once she cools off, she'll stop ignoring you."With that, Eloise wiped away her tears pitifully and turned to leave.Lawrence graspe

"Sylvie's number has been deactivated?" Lawrence asked in disbelief.Then, he immediately refuted it. "That's impossible! She's had that number for years. It's the only way to reach her. How could it be deactivated?""It's true, Don Ardent. I've already called the telecommunications company. They confirmed the number was personally deactivated by the owner yesterday."A wave of unease rose in Lawrence's chest. He called Niall once again. "Niall, can you still reach Sylvie? I can't find her!"Niall froze for a moment before slipping into professional mode. "Ms. Neve asked me to deliver the divorce agreement to you. Perhaps my client no longer wishes to be in contact with you. If you have any requests, feel free to tell me, and I'll make adjustments to the agreement accordingly.""Bullshit! When did I agree to a divorce?" Lawrence fumed. "All of you just can't stand seeing us together! Listen here, I'll never divorce Sylvie!"I want you to tell her to come home right this instant. She's

Lawrence suddenly grabbed Dr. Clayton by the neck. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked like he'd gone mad. "Why didn't you operate on her? Why did you just stand there and watch her miscarry?"Choked by Lawrence's grip, Dr. Clayton's face flushed crimson, and he could barely breathe. It took him a lot of effort to force out, "You were the one who told me she was an impostor and that I should ignore her. If I'd known she was your wife, I would never have left her like that!""Who told you to ignore her? She's my wife!" Lawrence yelled, his face contorted. "I-It was your assistant who said so! I called you, and she was the one who picked up." Dr. Clayton pulled out his phone, showing Lawrence his call log. After seeing that, Lawrence understood everything. He turned his head and gave Eloise the death glare, his entire body radiating an overwhelming sense of anger.Eloise was scared out of her wits. While the two men argued, she grabbed her bag and tried to run. In a flash, Lawrence
