Chapter 381 It Really Was Sean

No one was in the living room. Maybe he wasn't at home after all. Then, I caught it—a flitting figure behind the crack of his bedroom door. He was hiding inside!I stormed toward the bedroom and pushed the door. Sean was inside—along with my parents. "Mom? Dad? Why didn't you open the door for me?" I asked, my suspicion growing. "Wh-Why are you here, Rina?" Sean blabbered, his eyes avoiding mine. He had never been this mousy before. "Ex-Exactly. Shouldn't you be at the hospital taking care of Mrs. Doris?" Mom added gingerly.Dad just stood to the side, frowning. "I'm here to ask for the truth. Were you there during the accident, Sean? Were you at my house?" I asked ominously. Sean shuddered as he dodged my gaze. "What are you saying? How could anything that happened be related to me? I didn't go to your house yesterday morning!""I didn't tell you the time of the incident. How did you know?"Not even the news knew about this, so how did Sean?"I guessed, okay? How could

Chapter 382 The Family's Coercion

"I know I did something bad, Rina, but I hadn’t expected things to happen the way they did! I just wanted to make you apologize to Tiffany and then, well, talk about the car thing again. But you weren't there and Mrs. Doris was, and she just kept insulting me! Over and over and over! You have no idea about the nasty shit she said to me, and I lost control of my temper, okay? I pushed her a bit, and…" Sean explained.I knew he had been hiding the truth from me because he was scared, but fear was hardly a justification for a cover-up."It doesn't matter what she said to you. Words can't send someone to a coma! You did! This is a crime and you have to be in jail for this! Don't you know just what sort of things Jethro is capable of? He’ll use all of his resources and power to punish whoever harmed his mother!"Jethro already treated everyone outside his limited circle with apathetic pragmatism. But my brother? He hated Sean to the core. I didn't think Jethro would hold back any punches

Chapter 383 Let's Go Home

Dad then broke his silence. "Rina, please, I'm begging you too." He made his way next to me and dropped to his knees too. I felt myself plunging into the abyss of despair. I was shaking. I was furious. I couldn't believe any of this shit. I couldn't believe how little I mattered to them."Y-You're agreeing with Mom? Is that what you're doing, Dad?!" I yelled."We're both begging you, Rina! It was difficult raising you given our lives, but we did, and you owe us at least this little thing, right? After this, we'll never make you suffer anymore, okay?" Mom pleaded.She was still holding onto my hand, but I felt cold. I had been abandoned. My resolve then collapsed. I had given up. I took a deep breath to keep tears from rolling out of my eyes. "Fine! Fucking fine! I'll do it! I'll fucking do it, and from that moment on, neither of you are my parents anymore! You're not my mom, and you're not my dad! My real parents… They wouldn't… They wouldn’t treat me like this!" I ran away as t

Chapter 384 This Is a Terrible Joke

“You said you have something to tell me?" Jethro suddenly said softly as though he was worried he would frighten me. "Now's a good time."I gazed into his eyes which were brimming with concern and realized I couldn't say it. So instead, I asked, "If I had done something grave—something horrible, almost like a sin—would you forgive me?"I wrung my hands. I wanted to hear his answer, but yet, I couldn't meet his eyes.Jethro reached out and grabbed my hand tightly. "My wife can do any kind of wrong and it wouldn't bother me. I will always be here for you."I was touched, but his words didn't help. The "wrong" this time was something he would never expect. I returned to silence. I hadn't yet found the best way to confess my "crime," and I honestly rather not ruin one of my precious last few moments with him.We returned to the villa soon enough. He parked the car and smiled at me faintly, but I made no move to get out."Are you okay? You haven't been acting like yourself.""I…I'm s

Chapter 385 Connor's Slap

The sound of the door slamming pounded on my heart. It hurt.I was left alone in the car, my fingers clutching at my hair. I hated myself for being so easily manipulated. For being a doormat. For doing the stupidest thing possible. "I'm sorry, Jethro… I'm so sorry…"I sobbed in the car for a long time. I had never cried this much in my entire life. My phone then rang, and the screen read "Mom." This word had never carried this much irony before. What kind of mother would force her child to go through this?I took a deep breath and forced myself to sound cold. "What?""Rina, I just want to know if you remember your promise. You didn't rat Sean out, right?"That was all she fucking cared about! She didn't even ask if I was okay!"Save your breath. I don't need your useless reminder. I always do what I promise, and it has nothing to do with you. Do yourself a favor and don't ever call me again. I consider myself an orphan from now on!" I hung up the phone before she could say

Chapter 386 It Feels Like It’s Over Between Us

Jethro looked like he wanted to step in before the slap hit, but he was too late. The slap hurt, and not just my face, but also my heart. Connor had been so nice to me all this time, and now he was the one slapping me. "We’ve been very kind to you, Serena! Doris might have gone overboard at times, but you didn't have to do this to her. How could you?! You're nothing like you've shown yourself to be. You're not the daughter-in-law I thought you were," Connor snarled in disappointment. It felt like a knife was being twisted into my heart. Connor had supported Jethro and me being together, after all."Connor! She’s pregnant! If anything happens to my great-grandchild, you're not getting away with it!" Raymond bellowed.I was sure Raymond was just as disappointed in me as Connor was. He was only protecting me because of the baby."I’m sorry for acting out, Dad, but my wife's in a coma in the hospital, and it's all her fault! How do you expect me to give a damn if she’s pregnant or

Chapter 387 He Found Out

I hung my head and hoped he would stop prying.Mason suddenly grabbed my hand, looking concerned. "Can you please not lie to your best friend, Rina? You know you can trust me, so why not the truth?"His hands were warm, and the warmth reached my cold, tired heart. But I removed my hand from his. I couldn't be caught dead in such intimacy with someone who wasn’t my husband."I don't know what you mean, Mason. Why would I say it was me if it weren't? You don't seriously think I'm that stupid, right?" I chuckled dryly, my eyes warming despite my placid tone.Mason glanced at my retracted hand. "I don't believe one bit of it. I know you and trust you. I will never believe you'd do such a thing against Aunt Doris." I was touched. If I stayed any longer, I feared he’d figure things out. "Please excuse me. I have things to do.""Wait, I’ll go with you," he said calmly but firmly, "It's dangerous for a woman this late in their pregnancy to be walking around alone.”I didn't reject Maso

Chapter 388 He's Home

Mason's answer annoyed me. He had no concrete proof, and I had just supplied him with it! I mused quietly over how to respond. It took me a long time before I finally said, "Please help me keep this a secret from the Willows."I hated everyone in my family, but I wanted the last thing I did for them to work out. "That's the stupidest thing you could’ve possibly said to me, Rina! Sean hurt someone, and he should get his just desserts! I know the Willows won’t do anything against you, but you're still dooming yourself by shouldering a crime you didn't commit!" Mason cried out, shocked."I know that, but you also know that if Sean admits to his crime, the Willows will screw him as hard as they can. The best solution is to have me shoulder his crime."Rage flashed across Mason's eyes. "You can't keep defending him! What are you going to do if he actually kills someone?!" he yelled. "There won't be a next time. I've left my family behind. But please, Mason, I'm begging you. Please

Chapter 389 Deafening Silence

I laid out the food on the dining table and went to the study. Just thinking about Jethro being inside made my heart race. I stood outside for some time before I knocked. "Come in."I entered and saw Jethro looking at some papers. I suddenly didn't know what to say. He looked up after hearing nothing from me for a while. "What?""I…I prepared some food." "Oh."I was a little disappointed. He used to be so sweet…"I’ll head down first then." It felt as if Jethro and I had lost the conversation commonality we once had. We ate together across the table, but there was none of the feelings between us anymore. All that was left was silence. "Have you been busy? I mean, with work," I said, casting for a topic. "Yes."That was all Jethro said—as if any more words would’ve been a waste of his time. I looked down at my plate and felt glum. I couldn't bear it anymore and looked up, asking frankly, "Is this what we’ve become? Have you ever wondered how we're supposed to continue

Chapter 390 The Baby Is Born

"Just a bit more! We’re almost there!" Jethro exclaimed as he looked over his shoulder at me. All of his apathy toward me had vanished. I couldn't answer him. The pain… It was indescribable. I had expected childbirth to be challenging, but I didn't expect this level of pain. Even clutching the edge of my shirt did nothing to avail it. Jethro had to stop for a bit. There was an accident up ahead, and traffic was held up at the intersection. "Fuck! Fuck, fuck, fuck!" he snarled, slamming his fist against the horn. I started to cry out. Jethro, having never seen such a scene before, was clearly frazzled.Seeing the stopped cars ahead made my heart freeze. "Wh-What's happening over there….?""Don't worry. We're close to the hospital!" he declared as he stomped on the accelerator and shot past a red light. He ignored every traffic light from then on.We arrived at the hospital in minutes, but every second of it had been hellish. I felt like I was going insane.Jethro had called
