All Chapters of My Fiancé and His First Love Set Me Up, but It Backfired Spectacularly: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Sophie was a prisoner now.When Gavin came in carrying a tray of food, he found her staring blankly at the tightly shut window. He carefully arranged the dishes in front of her before asking gently, "What would you like to eat today? I can have the kitchen make you something else."Instead of answering, Sophie pointed toward the window."I want to go out to the garden.""It's windy outside." Gavin blew on a spoonful of oatmeal to cool it. "Your wounds haven't fully healed yet."Sophie pushed his hand away. "Then open the window.""The room's already at a comfortable temperature." He gently pushed the bowl back toward her. "You'll only feel worse if you catch a chill."She suddenly knocked the entire tray over, splashing food across his expensive suit.Gavin immediately checked whether any of the hot food had burned her before calmly wiping the stains from his clothes."Don't like what I made? How about some baked fish instead?""I want to go outside," she repeated, staring straight int

Sophie watched as the guards carried Gavin away and heard one of them report, "Mr. Lawson gave us orders before he passed out. He said not to disturb Miss Ward while she's resting."The next day, Gavin appeared at his usual time. There were signs of exhaustion beneath his eyes, but he didn't mention what had happened the night before.Instead, he gently reminded her, "Next time you want something, just tell me."He placed a new type of sleeping medication on her nightstand. "This one works better."Sophie lowered her eyes, burying her next plan even deeper.Gavin gently brushed her long hair, much like an animal trainer stroking a pet that had finally withdrawn its claws.Sophie was beginning to realize that her little tricks were no more effective against him than children's games. The police had already been waiting far too long. She needed to find another way.That evening, Sophie was unusually pleasant toward Gavin.She pushed a glass of high-proof whiskey toward him."Have a drink

Throughout the examination, Gavin kept his eyes fixed on the monitor.The moment Dr. Caldwell mentioned "morning sickness," he grabbed the doctor by his white coat."That's impossible... She was supposed to...""The baby's perfectly healthy," Dr. Caldwell added with a smile. "As long as she gets plenty of rest and proper care..."Gavin staggered backward into a rack of medical equipment."Say that again. I'm really... I'm going to be a father?"He dropped to his knees beside Sophie's bed, his trembling fingers barely touching her lower abdomen."Is it true? Are we really having a baby?"His eyes filled with tears, but he quickly looked back at the doctor."Can her body handle this? Is she going to be in danger?"Dr. Caldwell hurried to reassure him. "With proper care and no strenuous activity, she should be fine."Gavin was far from satisfied."Are you sure? She's been vomiting so much, and she was so pale just now..." His fingers tightened unconsciously around the medical chart. "Shou

Not long afterward, several of Gavin's business operations came under attack, and the police raided one of his meeting points, wiping out the entire operation.Gavin paced his compound like a caged animal, furious beyond reason."Are you all completely fucking useless? How the hell did the police manage to shut down one of my routes so easily?"His men stood before him with their heads bowed, too terrified to make a sound under his scrutiny.Suddenly, Gavin stopped in front of the youngest among them, Derek Hale, and gently tipped his chin up with one finger."Tell me something. How did the police know our routes so well?"Derek's lips trembled. "M-maybe... maybe it was just a coincidence...""A coincidence?" Gavin chuckled and abruptly twisted his wrist.The sickening crack of breaking bones filled the room, but Gavin's voice remained almost pleasant."Tell me, was that a coincidence too?"He turned to the others, leisurely wiping his hands."I want to know about every suspicious thin

The day Sophie went into labor, police forces suddenly surrounded the compound.Gunfire was closing in on the delivery wing when a bloodied guard stumbled into the corridor."Mr. Lawson! The cops are about to break through our last line of defense! We have to get out of here!"Gavin kicked him aside."Get the fuck out of my way!"Bracing himself against the delivery room door, he roared at his bloodied men, "Listen up! I don't care what it takes. You hold this hallway!"He grabbed his radio and began barking orders."Team A, hold the stairs! Team B, seal off the elevators! Team C, pin every last one of those bastards down in the hallway!"Snatching a shotgun from one of his men, he shoved it into a trembling guard's hands."You! Cover the left side! If even one person gets through, I'll chop up your entire family and feed them to the dogs!"He seized the guard by the hair and slammed his head against the wall."Am I fucking clear?"Then he kicked open a ventilation shaft and fired seve
