My Husband Lied About My Pregnancy to Adopt His Illegitimate Child Chapter 6
For Jacob, the most important thing in his life was never me—it was the company he built with his blood, sweat, and tears. I wondered countless times why he was so persistent in chasing after me. The answer was simple: he didn’t want to lose a capable business partner. Now that Sophia had betrayed him, there was no way he would show her any mercy. Without hesitation, he packed up all her belongings and threw her out of the house. Rain poured outside, filling the air with a damp chill. Jacob didn’t even think twice before tossing her things out the door. But the one who took it the hardest wasn’t Sophia—it was Asher. "Mom! I want my mom! Don’t throw her out! You’re a terrible father! I hate you! I hate you! When you get old, I’ll make sure you suffer for this!" The moment Asher realized Jacob was kicking his mother out, he completely lost it. I had no idea how Jacob felt at that moment, but for me, I had never been in a better mood. I wasn’t some fool who believed

"You’re pathetic." I crouched down and looked at Jacob, stating the simple truth in a calm voice. For a brief moment, a flicker of hope flashed in his eyes, only to fade just as quickly. He gripped my hand tightly, pleading. "Evelyn, why? Do you really not feel anything for me anymore?"Or is it someone else? Did someone fill your head with lies? Now that you have money, are they trying to take advantage of you?" I looked at Jacob coldly before suddenly laughing. There was mockery in my smile. Yes, I looked down on him. "You love me? Do you really think that’s love? You just enjoy the feeling of having someone admire you, of believing that you’re irresistible."And Asher—do you really love that child? No, you were just flattered that a woman would be willing to have your baby."In reality, you’re selfish. You don’t love anyone. The thought that I once wasted my time with someone like you makes me sick." Jacob nearly lost his mind. His face turned red with fury as he p

The noise outside the hospital room was still loud, but I sat there in a daze, staring at the chat messages on his phone."I've already told my wife. Once she gets rid of the baby, I'll bring our son home." "Don't worry, Asher is my son. I'll make sure he has the best of everything."Like some kind of self-inflicted torment, I kept scrolling up, reading through the sweet words of their so-called love.Outside, Jacob Barrett, as the hospital director, was discussing my condition with the other doctors."My wife has always been in poor health. This ectopic pregnancy was an accident. The longer she carries it, the more dangerous it is for her."Our hospital has regulations. As a doctor, I can't perform the surgery myself. Please, do me this favor."The doctor hesitated. "Surgery schedules are really tight these days. The earliest available slot is in a week. Jacob, maybe you should reconsider.""No matter how much it costs, as long as my wife is safe, I’ll do whatever it takes."To an

Jacob thought I had wavered. He started packing up my things with excitement, saying we were going to visit the child. I hesitated but didn’t refuse. I needed to know the truth. Jacob had always treated me so well, so how could he betray me? He drove me to a residential complex, one of the newest and most expensive developments in the city. Only those with money could afford to live here. When the door opened, a woman stood there. She looked just like the one in the photo—charming, alluring. The way she looked at Jacob was undeniable. I had seen that look in Jacob’s eyes countless times before. It was the gaze of someone in love. Asher was indeed a well-behaved child. The moment he saw Jacob, his eyes lit up with unrestrained joy. Before he could say anything, Jacob cleared his throat and coughed lightly. "Asher, I came to see you. Have you been listening to your mommy lately?" Asher reluctantly called him "Mr. Jacob" but shot me a wary, almost hostile glance

He pulled me into his arms, gently comforting me. "As long as you’re happy, I’ll do whatever it takes." My emotions finally settled. But when we got home, I couldn’t sleep. Maybe it was because that child’s presence had shattered the relationship that I held onto for so many years. That night, I was plagued by nightmares. I woke up in the middle of the night, clutching my stomach in pain. Panicked, I shook Jacob awake. "My stomach hurts… it hurts so much." Jacob bolted upright, startled. "Hold on, I’ll take you to the hospital right now." He quickly started putting on his clothes, preparing to carry me. Just then, his phone rang. He froze, then picked it up. "Hello? What’s the emergency?" I instantly sensed that something was off. Who could be calling him at this hour and making him sound so anxious?A second later, I heard the voice I dreaded the most. "Jacob, Asher has a high fever." At those words, Jacob, who had just been about to lift me up, turn

The moment the words left my mouth, Jacob’s face turned pale. He staggered back two steps, disbelief written all over him. "What did you say? The baby is gone? That’s impossible. Didn’t the doctor say the surgery schedule was tight and we had to wait?" Desperate to comfort himself, Jacob clung to a sliver of hope. "You’re lying to me, aren’t you? Evelyn, you’re just mad at me for leaving, right? I can explain everything. Asher is just a child, and he was really sick."When I took him to the hospital, the doctor said if we had waited any longer, his fever could have caused brain damage."I saw that his mother was struggling to take care of him alone, so I stayed to help." As he spoke, Jacob reached out to hold me, but I pushed him away. I had lost my child, while my husband had been by another woman’s side, taking care of her son. How could I ever accept that? Moreover, that woman and child were his mistress and illegitimate son. I hadn’t confronted him before because I

Fortunately, Jacob’s biggest rival was more than happy to speak up for me. "Funny how Mr. Barrett wasn’t so concerned about loyalty when he was cheating. Some people really have no shame these days. "Mr. Barrett, are you really resorting to seduction to hold onto those shares?"If that’s the case, I can gather a few people to support your… new career." Jacob had always cared about his reputation. After he heard those words, he didn’t hesitate to storm out. Sophia shot me a glare before hurrying after him. I touched my face, feeling an unexpected sense of relief. The worst thing in the world wasn’t dealing with a lunatic—it’s realizing that the person I loved all along was nothing but trash. After signing the contract, Jacob never bothered me again. After all, he wasn’t some genius.He couldn’t handle both love and business at the same time. I thought that was the end of it. But I never expected him to come back for me. After selling my shares, I focused on starti
