All Chapters of His Child's Blood on Their Family's Floor: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"Benjamin!" Samuel Miller dove into the icy lake without hesitation. By the time he pulled his son, Benjamin Miller, into his arms, the boy was already alarmingly cold to the touch.With Benjamin cradled against him, Samuel crawled up the side of the lake. He didn't even feel it when he bumped his knee and tore a bloody gash across the skin.He dared not stop as he carried out one chest compression after another on Benjamin, pushing the water out of the boy's lungs. But it was no use; Benjamin would stop breathing soon.Samuel scooped Benjamin into his arms and bolted out of the villa. He'd just reached the front door when the Garber family's butler, Charlotte Weissman, stopped him. "Mr. Miller, your failure to keep an eye on him has allowed him to leave the bungalow unsupervised, and he ended up startling Ms. Garber's husband."Because of this, Ms. Garber has asked that you take Mr. Benjamin back to the bungalow and put him in a time-out until further instruction from her—""I'

Hannah struck Samuel so hard that his face turned to the side. An intense roaring filled his ears. He felt warm, sticky blood trickling out of the corner of his mouth.Looking frosty, Hannah gripped Samuel's wrist and pulled him aside. There was no hiding the threat in her lowered voice. "Another word out of you, Samuel, and I won't let it slide."Now take Benjamin and go back to the bungalow! Neither of you is to leave the premises without my permission!"With that, she turned and took Tristan into her arms, patiently comforting him. Her gestures were jarringly affectionate.A sense of bitterness seized Samuel. In the end, the corner of his mouth curled up. He tightened his arms around Benjamin and turned to head downstairs.However, before he could take the first step down the flight of stairs, a vicious shove from behind sent him toppling forward. Benjamin's small body flew out of his arms and into the air, only to strike the wall, rebound, and land with a sickening thud.Samu

Samuel was still dazed when Hannah hauled him out of bed and dragged him out of the room. "Tristan's still in the hospital. You're coming with me!"With the box of ashes caged in the crook of his arm, Samuel let Hannah drag him out. She didn't even pause when he hit his knee against the door.When they arrived at the hospital, Tyler ran up to Hannah. His arm was in a sling, and his face was stained with blood. He was about to throw himself into Hannah's arms when he noticed Samuel standing beside her."How dare you show your face around here after you put my son in the ER?" he bellowed, fixing Samuel with a red-eyed, furious stare.Samuel snorted, ignoring the pain in his knee. "First of all, I would never stoop as low as you did. Secondly, so what if I did? You were the one who pushed my kid and me down the stairs first.""Are you comparing a mongrel to my son?" Tyler thundered, his features contorting with rage. "It's bad enough that you seduced my wife, but you made her give bi

Hannah hovered outside the operating room, pacing back and forth. All she could think about was the powder from the fire extinguisher spraying into Samuel's eyes, and how he'd collapsed on the floor, crying out in pain.She knew the pain that came with eye injuries, and she understood better than anyone how irreversible blindness could be.After the car accident that left her blind, she'd spent her days in darkness, waiting for corneas that might not come. Samuel had been the one who stuck by her side faithfully. If he hadn't, she would've died.At the time, she'd vowed to throw him a lavish wedding once she'd recovered her sight. She'd tell everyone how much she loved him.When the cornea transplant was successful and her sight was restored, she proposed to Samuel. She married him in a lavish wedding, just as she'd promised.However, everything changed when Tyler showed up in their lives.His girlfriend had been Hannah's cornea donor, and he was an orphan.To repay him for his

Charlotte was white as a sheet and trembling violently when she was dragged into the room. Hannah closed the distance between them and grabbed the butler by her shirt collar. Her eyes were red and furious. "What the hell happened at the banquet that day?"Where's my son? Where's Benjamin? I had you safely escort him back to the bungalow after the banquet. What did you do to him? How the hell did any of this happen?"Hannah gripped Charlotte's collar so tightly that she nearly suffocated. It was only when Katherine stepped forward and shoved Hannah aside that Charlotte could finally breathe again.She fell on her knees before Hannah, begging for mercy. "Ms. Garber, Mrs. Garber, I swear, I don't know what happened. I did as you asked and escorted Mr. Benjamin back to the bungalow. I don't know what happened after that."It was clear that Hannah didn't believe her. She kicked Charlotte in the chest and warned ferociously, "I suggest you tell me the truth."All the blood drained from
