All Chapters of Too Late to Claim Me Again : Chapter 1 - Chapter 5

“It would be better if the two of you got a divorce… just for a while.”The words shot out of Efendi’s mouth—Anna’s adoptive father—like lightning cracking straight across her chest. Anna froze. The world seemed to stall mid-spin. She stared at Efendi, waiting for him to take it back, to laugh, to say it was all some twisted joke.But he didn’t. He was serious. Dead serious.“Dad… don’t joke like that,” Anna whispered, her voice trembling, barely audible.“I’m not joking, Anna. Lusi is pregnant. And you know what that means—she’s a model.” Efendi’s gaze was sharp, immovable. “Rendy has to marry her. It’s the only way to keep our family from being disgraced.”Anna blinked at him, horrified. “She got pregnant by another man—why should my husband be the one to marry her?” Her voice rose in disbelief; none of this made sense.“Lusi’s boyfriend refuses to take responsibility. So please, Anna, listen to us,” Renata murmured softly, almost in a whisper. “We’ve raised you like our own daughte

“Anna,” Efendi called out just as she opened the front door. His voice was heavy—too heavy—like he was carrying something ominous.Anna froze halfway through taking off her shoes.

She lifted her gaze to Rendy.“Ren, are you really okay with this?”Rendy exhaled slowly, staring down as if choosing his words with painful precision.“This is what’s best for the family, Anna.”Anna’s eyes widened

“Anna, why do you suddenly want to resign?” the hospital director asked.Anna stood in the director’s office. After crying the whole night, she had decided to leave everything behind.“You’re the best OB-GYN this hospital has,” William said earnestly. “I even believe you could become the deputy director next year.”“I’m sorry, Mr. William, but I can’t explain why I need to leave,” Anna replied. “Please… just approve my resignation.”“Alright. I won’t make it difficult for you,” William said gently.Anna smiled faintly and stepped out of his office. She was ready to walk away from the hospital for good. But before she could leave, William called out again.“Anna.”She turned. “Yes, Mr. William?”“Please help me just this once. It’ll be the last time you work here. Mrs. Sebastian is at the hospital for her prenatal checkup. You’re our best doctor. I’m asking for your help.”Anna froze the moment she heard Mrs. Sebastian. A title that should have been hers—yet no one else ever knew it. H
