Chapter 1

"My decision is final, we're still getting divorced. My future's way more important than our marriage. Besides, we're still too young to be married," Damian said. "Your future? You're talking about your future while I'm here carrying your child? You don't think my future matters, Damian?" I asked. Damian let out a long sigh, his fingers adjusting his tie that was already perfectly straight. His cold demeanor was what hurt me the most. Not his anger, not his yelling, but his indifference. As if me and the baby in my belly were just a minor inconvenience in his perfect life. "You know how all of this happened, you're the one who approached me at that party and you're the one who kept flirting with me," I said. He turned around, his eyes staring at me coldly. "What happened at that party was a mistake. I was drunk, you were drunk too. We were both wrong but you're the one who chose to keep the baby, not me." "I'm keeping it because this is our child! Do you think I wanted to get pr

Two days later, the lawyer came.I heard the doorbell ring while I was sitting in the living room.When I opened the door, I saw a middle-aged man in a three-piece grey suit, carrying a thick folder in his hand."Mrs. Alissa?"I nodded."Edward Whitmore," he said while handing me his business card. "I'm from Whitmore & Associates law firm. I've been sent by the Kingsley family to handle the divorce proceedings. May I come in? We need to talk inside, this is quite complicated."I stepped aside, letting him in. He walked to the living room with steady steps, placing his folder on the wooden table that me and Damian bought together at the antique market two months ago."Would you like some tea?" I asked."No, thank you. Let's get straight to the point." He opened the folder, pulling out stacks of documents. "This is the divorce petition. Damian has already signed it.""I'm six months pregnant. Does UK allow divorce while the wife is pregnant?" I asked."In UK, madam, there's no law that

I spent the next two nights in that small apartment, sitting in the middle of my half-open suitcase. My hands moved slowly, folding my clothes, remembering how I came to this country a year ago.I got a medical scholarship at one of the best universities in London but I destroyed it in one night."I shouldn't have gone to that party," I said.I had no reason to stay here. My scholarship was revoked because I couldn't continue my studies. Damian's family clearly wouldn't let me stay in this apartment any longer. My only choice was to go back to my home country.My flight left at 2 PM from Heathrow Airport. I booked a taxi for 10 AM, giving me enough time to check in and compose myself before the long flight.I arrived at the airport with barely enough time. Hurriedly, I pulled my heavy suitcase through the terminal 5 corridor, looking for the check-in counter for the airline that would take me home.My growing belly made my steps slow and heavy. In the middle of the busy airport filled

I spent the rest of that day in the airport waiting area, sitting on a hard plastic chair while holding my stomach which still ached. Several security officers came to ask if I needed medical help, but I refused.The plane took off at 2 PM. I sat in a window seat, watching the city of London grow smaller from above.The journey was very long, over a dozen hours. I changed planes twice, sat in cold waiting rooms, and tried to sleep on uncomfortable chairs. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Damian's face when he shoved me.Finally, after an exhausting journey, I arrived at the airport in my home country. The warm air was so different from London's cold. I stood in the arrival area with my suitcase in one hand and my large belly on the other side, watching people being picked up by their families with happy smiles.I called a taxi and gave my uncle's address. My uncle was my only remaining family after my parents died in an accident three years ago. He was my mother's younger brother, a

Chapter 5

Eighteen years had passed since I left London. Right now I was stepping on my car's gas pedal.I was driving along the main city road, my fingers tapping the steering wheel casually. Outside the window, giant screens on tall buildings were displaying my own face. On every corner of the city, my photo was plastered, wearing a white doctor's coat, my black hair flowing, and my face showing no signs of aging after 18 years. Beneath my photo, written in large letters: Dr. Alissa Mariana - Best Plastic Surgeon 2026. Cosmetic surgery was indeed trending. In the last 3 years, my name had soared. My clients came from all walks of life, celebrities, officials, even international stars came to me just to be handled by me. I had built a reputation as a plastic surgeon with a magical touch, capable of transforming appearances without leaving scars. I took a deep breath and smiled slightly. Louis, my son, had successfully gotten into his favorite university last week. He competed with thousan
