The city was quiet that night, but inside a small, dark apartment at the edge of town, the air felt heavy with anger.Clark stood near the window, staring outside. His hands were clenched into tight fists. His eyes were red from lack of sleep.He could still see Judy’s face in his mind.Her soft eyes.Her gentle voice.The way she used to call his name.But now she belonged to David.The thought made his chest burn.Behind him, Vance sat calmly on a chair, his legs crossed. He looked relaxed, almost bored, as if nothing had happened.Clark suddenly turned around.“I can’t sit here doing nothing!” he shouted. “He is still living peacefully with her! He is still touching her, holding her, sleeping beside her!”Vance raised one eyebrow.“You’re getting emotional again,” he said in a low voice.Clark ran his hand through his hair.“How can I not be emotional?” he said. “That child in her stomach… it should have been mine.”Vance exhaled smoke slowly.“But it isn’t,” he said calmly. “And l

The car moved smoothly along the quiet road as David drove them back from the hospital. The afternoon sun was warm, and the sky was clear. Everything felt peaceful.Judy sat quietly in the passenger seat, holding the small envelope that contained the baby’s ultrasound picture. She kept opening it, looking at the image, then closing it again like she was afraid it might disappear.David glanced at her and smiled.“You’ve opened that envelope five times already,” he said softly.Judy smiled shyly.“I just want to be sure it’s real,” she said. “Every time I look at it, my heart feels full.”David reached over and squeezed her hand.“It is real,” he said. “And soon, that little picture will be a real baby in our arms.”Judy’s eyes softened.“Our baby,” she whispered.But just then, the baby suddenly kicked hard inside her.Judy gasped and grabbed her stomach.“Ah!”David’s face changed instantly.“What is it? Judy, what’s wrong?” he asked, his voice full of worry.Judy’s eyes widened.“No

Morning came slowly into the mansion. The sunlight passed through the tall windows and fell gently across the marble floor. Everything looked peaceful and beautiful, but inside Judy’s heart, a storm was growing.She was sitting on the edge of the bed, holding her phone. Her fingers were shaking. She had not slept well all night. The strange movement outside the mansion and the message on her phone kept replaying in her mind.She opened the message again.“Not every baby gets to see the light of day.”Her throat felt tight.Tears gathered in her eyes.“I can’t keep this from him anymore,” she whispered to herself. “He deserves to know.”She slowly stood up, holding her belly carefully. At five months, her stomach was already round and visible. Every step she took now felt more careful and slower.She walked toward the study. She knew David would be there. He always started his mornings with work.---Inside the study, David was on the phone with Deputy Cole.“Yes, increase the patrols

The morning sun rose slowly over the mansion. The sky was clear, but the air felt tense, as if something heavy was coming.Inside the bedroom, Judy was already awake. She sat on the edge of the bed, gently rubbing her stomach. She was now five months pregnant, and her belly was clearly showing.She smiled softly.“Good morning, baby,” she whispered. “Please stay strong for me.”Just then, her phone began to ring.She looked at the screen and smiled wider.“Sofia.”She picked up the call.“Hello, Sofia.”On the other side, Sofia’s cheerful voice filled the line. “Judy! How are you? I’ve been thinking about you all morning.”Judy laughed softly. “I’m fine. Just sitting on the bed and talking to the baby.”Sofia giggled. “You are already acting like a full mother.”Judy smiled. “I guess I am.”Sofia’s tone became softer. “Are you really okay? Any pain? Any dizziness?”“I feel better today,” Judy said. “Last night, my stomach felt tight, but it passed after some rest.”Sofia sounded worri

The living room of the mansion was silent, but the silence felt heavy and painful. Judy sat on the sofa, her face pale and her hands trembling. The news Deputy Cole had given her still echoed in her ears.“Mr. Jones’s car was attacked… he has been taken.”She could not believe it.Just a few hours ago, David had kissed her forehead and promised to return safely. Now he was gone.Tears rolled down her cheeks as she held her stomach.“David…” she whispered. “Please come back.”One of the maids knelt beside her. “Madam, please drink some water.”Judy shook her head slowly. “No… I need to go to the police station.”The maid’s eyes widened. “But madam, you are pregnant. You need to rest.”Judy slowly stood up, holding her stomach carefully. “I cannot sit here while my husband is in danger.”Her voice was soft, but it was full of determination.“I need to know what is happening. I need to see Deputy Cole myself.”---At the police station, the atmosphere was tense.Officers moved in and out
