My Unborn Heroes
I was Sean Freeman's kept woman, and from the very beginning, my goal was to get pregnant with his baby.
The day the pregnancy test showed two lines, I thought I had finally secured my future.
One night, when I was suffering from pregnancy nausea, I clearly heard two childish voices coming from my belly.
'Daddy wants to get rid of Mommy and keep the babies. We can't let him succeed! We have to make sure he transfers all his assets to our names before Mommy gets abandoned!'
Before I could even process the shock, another voice spoke up. This time, it spoke directly to me.
'Mommy, Daddy installed a listening device inside the hidden compartment of your nightstand. You can't act recklessly anymore. Pretend to be innocent and helpless. Remember, if you're going to play the victim, make sure you act like a real one.'
I instinctively glanced at the nightstand.
A red light blinked faintly through the crack. I froze.
