My ex-boyfriend’s first love insisted on dragging me onto the drop tower ride, which caused me to have severe bleeding from the trauma. When it happened, he used her fear of blood as an excuse to cover her eyes and hurry away, abandoning me in a pool of blood. In that critical moment, Steven Landers, the amusement park designer, rushed me to the hospital just in time. After losing the baby, I was completely devastated. Then to my surprise, he got down on one knee at the amusement park and proposed, promising me happiness for the rest of my life. After we got married, I became pregnant again. But I accidentally stumbled across his chat with a ride maintenance worker. "Mr. Landers, your wife already lost a child because of Miss Smith. You mentioned she has difficulty getting pregnant, so why are you pulling the same trick to get her on the drop tower again?" Steven casually touched his wedding ring and replied, "She's the reason Anne can never be a mother, so I absolutely won't let Myla give birth to a child that would upset her." "But that's your child too! How can you do this?" "So what? This is what she owes Anne. The drop tower is the perfect way to make it look like an accident. Tomorrow is Myla's birthday, and I'll personally take her on the ride. If she tries to run, I need all of you to help catch her!" So that was his plan all along—to use the drop tower to cause another "accident" and make me lose my baby!

When I went to the hospital, I found out our blood types don't match. Neither of those kids is mine! That bitch Anne had been cheating all along! Ha ha ha..."I had to admit, this was karma.Unfortunately, it also meant his children couldn't be used as leverage."Do you want money?"Leon sneered, "At this point, Steven has already beaten me so badly I can't function as a man anymore. So I'm going to kill the woman he loves most and let him suffer for the rest of his life!"He walked over to the drop tower's activation button.My heart instantly tightened.This was the same seat I'd been in before. The tower hadn't been fixed—I'd be thrown off again!No, the bomb might explode even before that happened!"Let her go!"A furious shout rang out. I stared in disbelief.Steven had come!Leon cursed and quickly mo
Leon looked unkempt, unshaven, and smelled terrible—clearly life hadn't been treating him well.He had two boys with him—or rather, two little terrors who stormed into my shop.When he saw me, a sinister gleam flashed in his eyes."Myla! Looks like you're doing pretty well for yourself."I narrowed my eyes. "You're not welcome here. Get out!"Leon smirked. "Well, well. We were lovers once. Why so cold? I even brought the kids to help support your business."Support?I couldn't help but laugh bitterly.His unruly children were grabbing and breaking my wooden sculptures, helping themselves to customers' cakes, and shouting loudly—completely ill-mannered.Furious, I called the police.When Leon saw me on the phone, he knocked it out of my hand. "You bitch! You dare call the cops on me? I've been too nice to you!"But his bullying behavior disgusted my customers, who called the police for me.The police arrived quickly and took Leon and his destructive children away without dis
At the neighbor's shout, practically everyone in the community came running.Steven turned pale but was quickly pulled away by people on both sides.Surrounded by strong farmers, Steven didn't stand a chance against them.I hid behind an older woman, looking visibly shaken.Steven's eyes reddened as he spoke softly."Myla, I'm your husband. I just want to talk to you properly."The woman turned to ask me, "Honey, he says he's your husband. Is that...?"I immediately shook my head, my eyes welling up as I explained to everyone."He may legally be my husband, but our marriage is over in every way that matters!"Then I told everyone everything I'd been through, word by word. How Steven had been cheating on me with Anne, how they had schemed together to put me on that drop tower.All the pain I'd bottled up inside came flooding out like a broken dam.Not only was Steven overwhelmed with shame, but everyone listening was furious."And he's the one who got my grandfather killed.
While Steven was being interrogated at the police station, I was planting flowers in a small rural community.This rural township was my grandfather's hometown—a picturesque place with clear streams and green hills, perfect for healing and finding peace.Although Steven hadn't signed the divorce papers yet, the inheritance my grandfather left me and my savings were enough to support me for quite a while.Belinda called occasionally to keep me updated."Myla, you wouldn't believe what's happening. Steven was detained for assault, but he didn't let Anne off either—he totally exposed her online."Anne is getting slammed by everyone on social media now. She's being held and questioned for attempted murder. I think she's done for!"I nodded, not surprised by this outcome.Karma always comes around—people eventually pay for their actions.But I was frustrated that Steven was released after just a few days of detention for assault.Belinda sighed too."Steven has money, and he genui
Steven felt his blood boiling as he listened.If he hadn't heard Anne confess with his own ears, he would never have believed that the woman he had so fiercely protected was such a venomous, cold-hearted snake!He kicked the door open violently to find two naked figures tangled on the couch.Anne screamed in fear, hastily grabbing a piece of clothing to cover herself.The man beside her was none other than Myla's ex-boyfriend, Leon."Steven, why are you suddenly at my place? This—this is breaking and entering!"Leon shouted too. "Get out of here right now, or we'll call the police!"But Steven was beyond rage at this point.He grabbed Anne by the hair and slammed her head against the floor, then kicked Leon savagely between the legs.Both let out agonizing screams, especially Leon, who had one testicle crushed by the blow.Anne sobbed and apologized."Steven, please stop hitting me. I was wrong, I was so wrong..."Steven glared at her coldly."Tell me exactly what you did
Steven spent a week at Anne's bedside before finally remembering Myla.He felt an unexpected twinge of sympathy for her.At least the baby was gone now, and according to doctors, she could never have children again. That was a relief to him.On the way to the hospital, he recalled what he had told the maintenance worker."Now that I've fulfilled my promise to Anne, I can properly be with Myla."After all, Myla was his wife, the woman he was supposed to spend his life with."But what if Myla wants children?"Steven pondered briefly."We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. The priority now is making sure Anne is content. If Myla really wants a child that badly, we can always adopt one."Pushing these thoughts aside, Steven stepped into the hospital room.But the room was empty, with only white curtains fluttering in the breeze.Steven froze, grabbing a nurse to ask, "Where's the patient?"The nurse replied flatly, "Oh, she was discharged three days ago."Steven turned p
No wonder Anne had seemed familiar—I had actually saved her before.But there was no time to explain before Steven pressed the button.Colorful lights illuminated the area and energetic music blasted around us.As the drop tower started, I suddenly remembered how theme park design had been Steven's childhood dream.Just because I once mentioned liking carousels, he had promised to design the most beautiful carousel, just for me.When had everything changed?I couldn't remember, because I'd always had a fear of heights.The drop tower suddenly shot upward then plummeted down in free fall. I screamed so hard I nearly lost my voice.On the ground, Anne was filming with her phone, laughing hysterically."Steven, look! She was much braver a year ago—now she can barely make a sound!"The wind carried away their mockery but brought the jeers of other visitors."That's what she gets for not appreciating such a good husband!""Look how much fun she's having now—she was being so dram
My legs were frozen to the spot as I stared at him in disbelief.He was actually threatening my grandfather's life!Grandpa was my only family—how could I let anything happen to him?Seeing no way to reason with him, I grew even more desperate, my voice choked with emotion."Steven Landers, I'm carrying your child! I'm eight months pregnant! That drop tower could make me miscarry or trigger my heart condition. Are you really going to force me to take that risk?"A flicker of conflict crossed Steven's eyes, but it was quickly replaced with determination.He leaned closer to my ear."Myla, didn't you promise you'd always support my career? This is the newest drop tower I designed especially for you. I begged for this opportunity, and now everyone's watching. You're getting on that ride whether you want to or not!"Don't you love me more than anything? If you just get on the drop tower this once, I'll treat you even better afterward. I'll bring in the best specialists in the count
At that time, Steven had rushed to the hospital like a madman.He held me tightly, his eyes bloodshot as he pointed at my ex-boyfriend and Anne, shouting furiously."Don't you know she's pregnant? How could you make a pregnant woman ride a drop tower? You're murderers, and I'll never forgive you!"He beat up my ex-boyfriend, got detained and fined, and when he was released, I immediately accepted his proposal.But I never imagined that this man who once risked jail for me would now hurt me again for the woman who had harmed me before.I felt a strong movement in my belly, as if my baby was worried for me.With one last shred of hope, I begged him."Steven, I don't feel well today. I don't want to ride the drop tower."Steven's expression changed instantly, and he refused firmly without a second thought."No way, we already agreed to this. Besides, don't you love the drop tower?"He gripped my wrist so hard that I, a heavily pregnant woman, couldn't break free.In desperation
The chat log ended there.Learning that Steven Landers planned to harm my baby on my birthday tomorrow, I had only one thought: run.To avoid raising suspicion, I had my best friend buy me a train ticket.That night, I watched Steven drink the milk I'd laced with sleeping pills, and he fell into a deep sleep on the bed.But just as I was about to leave, I felt a sudden pain at the back of my head, and then everything went black.When I opened my eyes again, I was already sitting in Steven's car.How could this be? Steven had taken sleeping pills, so how could he attack me?Steven tilted his head and smiled innocently at me."Honey, you were sleeping so soundly. To surprise you for your birthday, I just carried you straight to the car."I froze. “Didn't you drink the milk yesterday?""Haha, I haven't been in the mood for milk lately, so I secretly poured it into the plant pot."My heart sank as I watched the scenery along the roadside grow more sparse, with signs displaying l...
