บททั้งหมดของ Forbidden Love:I wanted to abort until I heard 2 heartbeats: บทที่ 21 - บทที่ 30

David had never met Ryan. He knew Ryan’s father—a prominent public figure who had negotiated Miss Vale’s dowry years ago—but he didn't know his children. David was completely oblivious. Recognizing the danger, Miss Vale forced herself to keep cool, averting her eyes and pretending she hadn't seen him at all. Ryan, however, knew David all too well. He had spotted him at family gatherings and seen his photos around Miss Vale’s house during their five-year affair. Back when they were lovers, Miss Vale had opened up about David, even telling Ryan how amazing David was in bed. Those words had planted a burning, possessive jealousy inside Ryan that never truly went away. Most of the times when miss Vale and Ryan made love , Ryan could find himself teasing Miss Vale - if the sex was as good as David's.. Looking at Ryan now, Miss Vale’s mind spiraled right back to the first night they ever made love—the very day they met. It was Ryan’s birthday, and she had visited his father's restauran

"Vale, you need to finish your meal," David’s voice broke through her spiraling thoughts. "Those babies need food, sweetheart. I’m going to make sure you eat well and take every single supplement on time."He reached across the table, picking up a spoon. Softening his voice, he leaned in to feed her."Come on, David," she protested weakly. "I can feed myself.""Just one more spoon, and we're done," he insisted with a warm, steady smile. "We have to clear this plate so that when you get home, you can go straight to sleep."Miss Vale couldn't resist. David wasn't taking no for an answer, and beneath her guilt, she knew his fussing came from a place of genuine care.Across the dining room, Ryan was watching every second of it.His jaw was clenched tight, his eyes burning with raw, suffocating rage. The intimate scene at their table was driving him insane. Spotting his discomfort, a dark realization washed over Miss Vale: he's furious.When David finally set the spoon down, he nudged a gl

Her heart plummeted into a dark abyss as her eyes scanned Ryan’s flurry of messages. Mixed in with the open threats were vile insults, frantic confessions of eternal love, and pathetic claims that he couldn't function without her—that seeing her with David had completely shattered his world. ​Miss Vale took a deep, shaky breath, forcing the panic down into her stomach. First, get my daughter to school. Then deal with the monster. ​She knew Ryan better than he thought. Deep down, he was a coward. He had spent years building his career and earning his influential father's approval—there was no way he would throw all of that away just to expose an incestuous affair. He was jealous, unstable, and desperate, but he was bluffing. ​He won't blow up his own life, she reassured herself, tightening her grip on the steering wheel. He's trying to scare me. ​She dropped her daughter off at the school gate, forcing a warm, reassuring smile. "Have a great day at school, my love. See you later."

A full month slipped by in complete silence from Ryan. In his absence, David stepped into her life without hesitation. He became her constant anchor—providing for every need, stocking her kitchen, paying her bills, and gently reminding her every single morning to take her prenatal vitamins. On the surface, it looked like the picture-perfect recovery of a family.On the inside, Miss Vale was falling apart.Despite David’s devotion, her body was rejecting everything. Her weight continued to plummet at a alarming rate. She had zero appetite; the sight or smell of food triggered violent waves of nausea, leaving her doubled over the toilet bowl throwing up whatever little she managed to swallow. Even her prenatal supplements couldn't stay down for more than a few minutes before her throat rejected them.The visible changes were impossible to hide. Friends, family, and coworkers began whispering in concern as her clothes hung loosely off her shrinking frame. The emotional toll was destroyin

The emergency medical team burst into Dr. Trevor’s office, their boots squeaking against the polished floor as they rushed in with a gurney. David lifted Miss Vale into his arms, his heart hammering against his ribs, and placed her swiftly onto the bed. Within seconds, the nurses were guiding the gurney down the hallway toward the high-acuity resuscitation bay, working frantically to revive her and administer immediate emergency care."David, you’ll have to wait outside for now," Dr. Trevor said, catching him by the shoulder at the double doors. "We need to stabilize her vitals. I will come get you the moment she regains consciousness."The double doors swung shut, leaving David standing alone in the sterile corridor. Suffocating panic gripped his chest. He paced back and forth, the squeak of his shoes echoing in the empty hallway as the minutes stretched into what felt like an eternity. He couldn't stop questioning himself, torturing his mind with thoughts of how he had failed her in
