Chapter one
EMILY'S POV "How can you say you don't love me anymore?" Emily asked her husband, Dan, who was too engrossed in his phone to notice her tears. "I can't hide it anymore, Cheryl is pregnant with my child, and I love her. It's best we get divorced," Dan said, his voice devoid of emotions. Cheryl? My colleague and friend? How could they do this to me? "I'm pregnant too, Dan," Emily tried to say, but he walked out of the room, leaving her stunned. The air was thick with tension. Emily felt like she was trapped in a nightmare. This had to be a prank, right? Dan returned with a file and pen. "These are the divorce papers, already signed by me. You need to leave now; Cheryl will be moving in soon."He said emotionless , Emily laughed, thinking it was a joke. "Hahaha… Cheryl, you guys got me here! This is the most realistic prank ever!" But Dan's expression was cold, his eyes gleaming with malice. "You must be crazy to think all this is a prank. Did you ever think I loved you? It was all part of the plan." Emily's laughter died. Her heart shattered into a million pieces.plan?. "We've been married for five years, Dan. We've never had a fight. What's going on?" Emily pleaded, tears streaming down her face. Dan sneered. "Six years ago, your father died, and everything was willed to you, making you CEO of Axel Companies. You were lonely and broken, then I came along, swept you off your feet, and became CEO. I have everything I want now; I don't need you." Emily's world crumbled. Her whole life, a lie?. Suddenly, a sharp pain pierced her abdomen. "Save the baby!" Emily screamed, clutching her stomach before collapsing. When Emily woke up she found herself in the hospital bed she was wearing a loose hospital gown. She knew Dan would save her and her baby maybe she was probably having a bad dream. Emily looked around the hospital , this wasn't like the hospital Dan normally take her to, this place looks ancient. She was still looking around when she heard hushed whispers. "Make sure you terminate the pregnancy. She isn't going to know; tell her she lost the baby, and that's all." A familiar voice whispered. Emily recognized the voice; it was Cheryl, how did Cheryl know she was here and why is she trying to kill my baby?. "She's a mistress trying to take my husband. If possible, make her die, and your payment will be triple."The same voice said with so much hate in it. Emily's eyes widened in horror. She was in danger. A few minutes later a doctor entered the room, followed by a nurse. "We've carried out tests; the baby is in critical condition." Emily asked, trying to stay calm, "Did you know who brought me to the hospital?" The doctor hesitated. "We didn't get to see the person." Emily sensed something was off The doctor continued, "The bill was covered by the lady who dropped you." Emily's eyes narrowed. Cheryl? The doctor handed her pills. "You need to take these for your child's health." Emily pretended to swallow the pills but she secretly put the pill under her tongue then drank the water A lawyer arrived with divorce papers. Emily's heart sank. She wasn't dreaming earlier, Dan really wanted a divorce . "Dan hasn't come to see me, and now he's serving me divorce papers?" Emily thought, anger and sadness boiling over. "You already signed the company over to me, and there's no backing down," The lawyer handed over the documents and also the voice recorder Emily's face paled instantly, she has nothing left she has failed her family ,her unborn child and her father the most. The company which he built with his sweet and blood is been taken away , is life this cruel. "Ma'am you have to sign it quickly ,my client has left some money for you In the bank and also signed the paper for the abortion of the pregnancy." The lawyer said He wants her to kill her child ,"Tell him am not going to sign anything , he cant do this. "Emily said dejected The lawyer left the room to make a call Emily knew she had to leave this place her life was already at stake her. ---CASPER HALLOW Today is the one year death anniversary of me and Amelia , my wife .
