Chapter 1

Chris' frown deepened. He hadn't expected me to utter those words—words I refused to say even when his enemies held a gun to my head.Break up."Really, Lisa Landale?"Chris' voice turned chillingly dark. He looked at me with displeasure, waiting for me to take back what I had just said.In his eyes, the peaceful life we now had was everything I had ever dreamed of. He couldn't understand why I was making a fuss.And I couldn't understand either. Yet, I stubbornly refused to back down."Yes, that's right."The air grew tense, and Chris' expression grew darker.It was Jessica Sanders who spoke up first, breaking the hostile atmosphere.Jessica was the young side chick Chris had hidden away for over a year.Very naturally, she scratched his palm with her finger, a gesture that was both seductive and comforting."Chris, if this puts you in a difficult position, I don't mind postponing our wedding..."I instantly raised my head. Looking at her pure and delicate face, my mind we

"But, what if Lisa gets angry and leaves with the child? What will happen to our baby?""Chris, you know I've been an orphan since I was a kid. I'm not as fortunate as Lisa, who got to meet a big brother like you when she was young, nor am I fortunate enough to bear a healthy baby for you. I really envy her!""Forget it, I don't want to make things difficult for you. I might as well just die with the baby. I hope in the next life, we’ll be together in good health!"Jessica bolted out of the door. When she bumped me aside, a flash of surprise crossed her eyes, but it lasted only a split second before she scrambled up onto the windowsill, pretending to leap.The delicate girl fluttered helplessly in the wind. Chris' eyes instantly turned red as he coaxed her with a trembling voice.I massaged my aching chest, walking away once more, only to be grabbed by Chris. His tone softened, which was a rare occurrence when he spoke to me, yet his gaze was cold to the point of cruelty."Be a g

My numb heart began to ache once more, far surpassing the tearing pain below.Seeing me regain consciousness, the doctor who had spoken up for me earlier looked at me with a complicated gaze, his eyes full of pain.Suddenly, I let out a mocking laugh. Even someone I had only known for ten months felt sorry for me, yet the man who had stayed by my side for ten years cared nothing for my life.There is no grief greater than a dead heart. Along with the cries of newborn infants, I slipped into unconsciousness once more.I had no idea for how long I slept, but when I opened my eyes again, the babies were nowhere in sight.There was no time to feel guilty for not watching over the babies properly. I dragged my torn body out of bed and bolted out of the ward.A voice in my mind was screaming frantically: I must find my children!Blood dripped down, leaving a long crimson trail behind me. The pain below pulled at me so intensely that I could barely stand.Right before everything went

Chris' expression was icy, the fury in his eyes practically overflowing."Lisa!! How dare you!? Jessica only wanted to help you take care of the babies because you were too lazy to look after the kids and slept after giving birth. Why on earth would you attack her?!""Even tigers don't eat their own cubs! These are your children, flesh and blood crawling straight out of your womb! Even if you don't care about them, what right do you have to strip them of their lives?!"I was lazy and sleepy? I stripped them of their lives?Lying in a pool of blood, I trembled with rage."Even tigers don't eat their own cubs? Chris, you tell me what that means! You tell me why I couldn't wake up after the surgery, where my other child is, and why there are so many blood-drawing devices here! Is this what you call a tiger not eating its cubs?!""Enough!! You slept the whole day after giving birth due to your own poor physical condition. Jessica gave birth alongside you; how come she was able to wak

When the ring slid past his finger to the second joint, Chris still saw no sign of me, nor had he received any messages from me.An unexplainable sense of heaviness settled in his chest, and a wave of irritation washed over him. He instinctively pulled his finger back.The ring slipped and fell near his feet before he snapped back to reality and remembered—he was in the middle of his wedding ceremony.Chris tugged at his tie impatiently. He had never liked these restrictive formal suits, nor did he care for the tedious, complicated procedures. Fortunately, it would all be over soon.Meeting Jessica's unhappy gaze, Chris forced down his inner restlessness. Feeling as though he were making a compromise, he bent down to pick up the ring from the floor, only to see his subordinate running over from outside with a pale face."Boss, bad news! The Gaston family is attacking!"Immediately after, a deafening roar echoed from the distant coastline.Chris' expression changed drastically. "

The doctor clenched his fists tightly, his voice hoarse and bitter.For a brief moment, Chris stood in a daze. Then, he threw a punch back."What heart? What blood?! What on earth are you talking about?""The thing about taking Lisa's baby's heart was just something I made up to humor Jessica. I already had an artificial heart prepared!""They're my children! How could I possibly dig out their hearts or drain their blood?!"Just then, Jessica walked over. Suppressing her panic, she grabbed Chris with red, tear-filled eyes and cried out in grievance."Chris, what is he talking about? I wouldn't hurt a fly! How could I possibly want the heart and blood of Lisa's children?""I only said that because I was emotional during pregnancy, I didn't mean it! This man is making such malicious accusations! Could he and Lisa be working together to frame me?""You mustn't be fooled by them. As a woman myself, I can see through Lisa's little tricks. She's just faking her death to deceive you!"

"Ah!! He's your son too, Chris!""The only children I recognize are the three born to Lisa."After saying that, he tossed the knife aside and rushed away. This time, no matter how much Jessica cried and made a scene, he did not look back even once.By the time Chris reached the coastline, the Gaston family had been completely repelled, leaving behind only rows of cold corpses.Among them, Chris recognized many. They were his brothers, the loyal supporters I had helped him cultivate.A chill ran down Chris' spine, filling him with a profound sense of grief. Desperately, he dropped to his knees among the bodies, turning over each one, only to find none of them were me.He shook his head and shouted my name, screaming until he broke down in helpless tears.Chris could not understand how things had come to this. In the beginning, he had only brought Jessica in, treating her well and pampering her, to use her as a shield for me.Sometimes, when he was with Jessica, he would wonder i

A month ago, I made two phone calls in the incubator room.One was to the Gaston family, Chris' enemies, with whom he had long-standing grievances. I gave them Chris' confidential information in exchange for their help in staging my leap into the sea.The other call was to the doctor, who was the only person who had tipped me off when Chris brought Jessica home and the only one willing to speak up for me in front of him. I asked him to show the evidence to Chris.As I anticipated, upon seeing the evidence, Chris had rushed to the sea.I closed my eyes. Everything was about to come to an end.As dawn broke, members of the Gaston family surfaced and surrounded Chris.He attempted to resist, but the moment he caught sight of me in the crowd, his strength instantly drained away. His lips parted, and his dim, lifeless eyes suddenly lit up."I'm sorry, Lisa!"I was somewhat surprised. I had expected his first words to be asking me why.Pinned to the ground by his enemies, Chris' han
