Its Better This Way A

My husband insisted that I wear high heels at the company’s annual meeting despite being pregnant. He compared me to his female secretary with a look of disdain. "Can’t you learn from Lucille? She’s eight months pregnant and still comes to work in full makeup, handling her tasks efficiently. If you don’t wear them, don’t go. I’ll be embarrassed!" He even tried to give the high heels to his secretary and take her as his date. Left with no choice, I forced myself to wear them. However, on the balcony, the secretary tripped me, spilling red wine all over me. Limping, I found my husband, only for him to sneer, "Tripping on flat ground? How clumsy!" Furious and pale with anger, I turned to leave. Someone urged him to chase after me, but he only got angrier. "How bad could it be? She’s so timid—she can’t survive without me! Just wait. When the event’s over, she’ll definitely be waiting in the car to drive me home." Alas, he was wrong. I turned and went straight to the hospital for an abortion.

After the New Year, some of my husband's former students are back to visit him. So, my husband, Isaac Cooper, treats them to dinner. They greet us warmly, but when they first see me, there is a hint of surprise in their eyes. In the private room, Isaac takes my hand. Everyone starts teasing us. "Mr. and Mrs. Cooper are so loving. I'm so jealous!" I lower my head shyly and excuse myself to the restroom, only to overhear two of his students chatting. "I was startled just now. I thought Mr. Cooper's wife would be Lilith Walker." "But Mrs. Cooper looks so much like her. When she walked in, I almost mistook her for Lilith." I freeze on the spot. I know Lilith is Isaac's ex-girlfriend, but I have never seen her in person. Cold water runs over my hands. As I look at my carefully made-up face in the mirror, I suddenly feel a wave of nausea.

Someone had sprinkled some corrosive acid powder all over my wedding dress, the one worth over a hundred million. The moment I put it on, my flesh began to burn and dissolve. Blood and yellowish fluid pooled around me as a result. When I tried to call for an ambulance, someone’s mother held me down. She smiled cruelly and said, “You dare steal my daughter’s wedding dress? Go to hell!” However, my husband had ordered the dress from a top designer. It was one of a kind! I struggled with all my strength and shouted at her, “Do you know who I am? How dare you touch me?!” Her daughter, Yelena Stone, then grabbed a knife and stabbed me hard in my pregnant belly. She sneered and said, “You stole my man, but you have the audacity to yell at me? Fine. I’ll just spend a little more to end your worthless life.” My worthless life? I laughed. My hands were stained with blood as I called my brother, Hunter Sinclair, an elite in Jinvell’s social circles. “Hunter! Someone’s trying to kill me! And tell Jacob to get here now!”

# Napalunok ako nang makababa sa puting kotse na naghatid saakin, napatingala ako sa malaking simbahan na nasa harapan ko. Ito na ba yon? Kukunin na ba ako ni Lord? Mas mabuti pang kunin na lang ng kalangitan kesa naman ikasal sa bwisit na CEO Dehan Aragon na yon. I just promoted as the Team Manager of Social Contribution team, that doesn't mean na pwede na akong ikasal sa kung kanino. Walang gana akong naglakad papalapit sa simbahan na iyon. Honestly, I'm having second thoughts, pero ano pa bang magagawa ko? Muntikan na akong mapatalon nang kusang bumukas ang malalaking pinto, there I saw those people looking at me, with different emotions and expectations. Napatingin ako sa harap ng altar at nakita si Dehan Aragon, nakaawang ang bibig niya na parang nagtataka. Gwapo naman siya, matalino, hot, at 'medyo' mabait. Pero sabi nga ni Elsa "You can't marry a man you just met" Kesa maglakad papunta sa harap ay binuhat ko ang mahabang suot ko at tumakbo papalayo. Narinig ko ang sigawan ng mga tao dala ng pagkagulat, bahala na! I never thought that escaping him, the CEO of HT Financial Company would be bad idea.....
