Loving You Was My Last Mistake
My family is on the brink of bankruptcy, and I beg my fiancé to help us with emergency funding.
He turns me down cold, then gets engaged to Nellie White without hesitation.
Just when I'm out of options, my childhood friend shows up with an investment contract and a marriage proposal.
I say yes without thinking twice. But even with his help, our company can't escape ruin.
My father, unable to bear the blow, suffers a heart attack and dies.
At the funeral, overwhelmed by grief, I faint. In my haze, I overhear a conversation between my childhood friend and his friend.
"You've already crushed Talitha’s family. When are you going to take her uterus for Nellie?"
"On the wedding day," he replies casually. "I'll stage an accident, then operate on her myself. Her uterus will be Nell's. I can't give Nell happiness in this life, so I'll give her a wedding gift. I hope it makes her happy."
Turns out his so-called devotion was just so he could take my womb. Even his proposal to me was just a way to remove all obstacles for the woman he loved.
