Harvey's Pov “I won't repeat myself again, Harvey.” Derek said coldly, “Give them to me!” Derek barked, lunging forward with his hands outstretched, attempting to forcefully snatch the bags right out of my hands. “Derek, don't!” Gigi screamed from behind me. Before Derek’s fingers could even touch the paper handles, I stepped back quickly and held my ground, pointing my finger straight at his chest with a look so cold that Derek instantly stopped mid-motion. “Touch these bags, Derek, and see what happens,” I warned, my voice dropping into a dangerously quiet whisper that carried more weight than any scream. “I’m warning you right now since you don't seem to understand that I want nothing to do with you anymore. Anything you do to me from this moment on... I will do it to Olivia three times worse.” Derek blinked, completely taken aback by the sudden threat. “What? What the hell are you talking about?!” “You don't believe me?” I stepped even closer, staring right into his e

Harvey's Pov. "It's primarily caused by extreme, prolonged physical and emotional stress," Dr. Evelyn explained, typing a few notes onto her keyboard. "Your body has been living in a constant state of high alert, and your immune response has broken down because of it. You need proper rest, a better diet, and you absolutely must remove whatever sources of chronic stress exist in your life. I'm going to prescribe some immune-boosting vitamins, antibiotics for your respiratory track, and a mild sedative to help you sleep properly at night." "Thank you, Doctor," I breathed out, feeling a wave of relief that it wasn't anything incurable. Dr. Evelyn then paused. She picked up a physical file on her desk, her brow furrowing into a deep, puzzled line as she looked at me. "Now... let's address something in your medical history form," Dr. Evelyn said, her tone growing cautious. "You wrote down here that a previous doctor diagnosed you as infertile due to your health? About a few days a

Derek's Pov I couldn't focus on my laptop screen. The black and white numbers blurred together every time I tried to read the design budget report. My fingers tapped a nervous rhythm against the wooden desk, and every few seconds, my eyes darted to the digital clock at the bottom corner of my screen. 5:15 PM. A knot of anxiety tightened in my stomach. It was a nagging feeling that had been sitting in my chest since I woke up this morning. I felt like I was walking on thin ice, waiting for the surface to crack under my feet, and I had no idea why. Actually, that was a lie. I knew exactly why. It was because of Harvey. Ever since she agreed to the open marriage I suggested, she had completely changed. It was like she became a totally different person overnight. The quiet, timid woman who used to jump whenever I raised my voice was gone. Now, she spoke to me with a cold, mocking smile. She yelled back at her parents, shoved her brother away, and looked at me like I was noth

Derek’s Pov I opened my car door, walked around the back of the car, and opened the trunk. I grabbed the two paper bags full of groceries and her small travel suitcase. Olivia got out of the car slowly. I walked over to her, wrapped my free arm around her waist, and helped her up the front steps. I pushed the front door open with my shoulder. The house was bright. As soon as I stepped inside and set the bags down on the hallway floor, I heard a sound that made me stop in my tracks. It was laughter. Loud, genuine laughter echoing from the sitting room. I left Olivia by the doorway and walked down the hall. I stood at the edge of the sitting room and just stared. Harvey and Gigi were sitting on the floor. Between them was a large cardboard box filled with fried chicken, two cups of soda, and some napkins scattered around. The television was on, playing some comedy show. Harvey threw her head back and laughed at a joke on the screen. She reached into the box, grabbed a piece of chic

Olivia’s Pov My entire body shook with anger. I stood near Derek, my fingers digging so hard into the leather strap of my purse that my nails turned white. I watched Derek walk toward the stairs, a stupid, foolish smile plastered across his face. He actually looked happy and relieved. All because Harvey, that pathetic, arrogant woman, had mentioned buying him a late anniversary gift. I clenched my fists until my knuckles hurt. He was acting like an idiot. Over the past few days, Derek had completely changed, and it was driving me insane. Ever since Harvey stopped giving him her full, desperate attention, Derek had started acting differently. He wouldn't admit it, but he was chasing after her. He was following her around like an anxious puppy, begging for her reactions, desperate to see if she still cared about him. It had taken me so much effort to get to this point. I had spent months whispering in his ear, faking tears, playing the victim, and manipulating him just to make
