Chapter 1 Congratulations!

"Congratulations! The report shows that you're now 15 weeks pregnant."My hands trembled as I held the report, never once expecting this. When I married Grady, the doctor had already mentioned it was not easy for me to conceive.Even after years of marriage, there was still no news, and I was gradually losing hope that I could ever conceive naturally. Yet, with my busy schedule over the past few months, I hadn't been keeping track of my period cycle.And now, I was blessed with such a surprise!To calm my racing heart, I took a few deep breaths as the doctor explained, "The baby is developing healthily, but the embryo is not in its ideal position. Rest well, but avoid being emotional and any intense activity."I gently touched my slightly rounded belly, feeling a sense of peace and contentment. My recent weight gain, I figured, was due to my continuous struggles to maintain my figure, but it turned out to be my baby—the one Grady and I had anticipated for the last five years.I p

Chapter 2 This is Me

'My savior's here!' A glimmer of hope surfaced in my heart, as I summoned all my courage to sit up.However, Melissa relaxed when she saw who had come. Standing in the doorway were a few unfamiliar faces, and she greeted them with a pleasant smile. My grip on my purse tightened, and I secretly reached out for my phone.With a mocking glint, Melissa crouched down beside me. "What's up? Judging from your depression, you've bribed some of Grady's employees, right? No wonder you dared to barge into the company."Her laughter was as frigid as the wintry winds, and she gleamed with satisfaction. "The team of specialists? I brought them back from abroad for the company's sake. Without me, they'd still be struggling with their technological issues." She pinched my chin, her sharp nails digging deep into my skin. Sighing, she feigned pity. "You know, you have such a pretty face, but is that all you've got? What if I accidentally scald your face? I wonder whether it'll make you look even

Chapter 3 Secret Defiance

She held up the phone, waving the lock screen in front of me and sneering. "Challenging me with this attempt, huh? Did you think I'd believe it's Grady?""Give the phone back," I demanded, reaching out to reclaim my phone.The women gathered around her to openly mock the display image."It's edited. There's no way Mr. Winters would allow her to do such a thing. It's hilarious!""She must be delusional. Even in a dream, that's a stretch!"Although Melissa had a faint smile, there was something sinister in her gaze. "Grady and I grew up together. We have so many photos, which is why your fake one's disgusting me."She threw my phone to the ground, causing cracks to spiderweb across the screen. In one quick motion, I reached out to protect it, knowing I'd be safe as long as I could call someone.Melissa's heel came into view as it pressed my hand down over the phone—all because I could unlock the screen. Tears swam in the corners of my eyes, but I refused to let go.As they rained

Chapter 4 Battered

Feeling in despair, I repeated the truth—over and over again."You're lying. Everyone knows that the ring he usually wears isn't this one," Melissa sneered, her gaze dripping with mock sympathy. "Honestly, it's like you've barely even met him to lie like this."Grady cherished this ring, only wearing it on special occasions. Most of the time, he wore the simple ring I gave him when we first got together. Yet, I could see the picture now—Melissa would only believe what she wanted to believe, and explaining was just a waste of time."Just give it back, please? I'll give you whatever you want… or perhaps, we can trade? I'll give you something in exchange." I tugged at her sleeve, my voice filled with desperation.She laughed suddenly, her eyes glinting with cruel amusement. "Are you really obsessed with this? You behave as if you'd steal his clothes to have a whiff of his bodily scent. Are you that thirsty for a man?" She covered her mouth with a giggle, pretending to consider my offe

Chapter 5 Being Cornered

"What's wrong? All I'm doing is teaching a delusional woman her place. Mind your own business." Melissa smiled sweetly, but her words were venomous. "Whitley, did you forget who helped you cover your mistakes years ago? If you still want to become the chief secretary, I advise you to think before you act."Then, I saw Whitley clench his fist before slowly releasing it."Whitley! Say something! I am Mrs. Winters. You can't just stand by and do nothing!" Tears began to stream down my face while pain pulsed through my abdomen.Whitley was silent for a long time."Don't cross the line, Miss Angeles. The police still have records of your misdeeds in the police station." Then, Whitley took a step back and said, "I'm sorry, but you aren't Mrs. Winters. I met her before, and she is a graceful person."At that moment, I knew he was lying. After all, he clearly recognized me.Why did everyone choose to help Melissa? As I thought about it, I felt helpless.On the other hand, Melissa ponder

Chapter 6 It's Too Late

"The meeting is about to wrap up. They want details on the cooperation on new technology. Can you send me a copy of the document?" Grady's voice sounded tired.Melissa coordinated with him professionally. She even acted considerate and told him to rest well.Then, she glanced at me out of the corner of her eye and said with a smile, "Grady, a woman had caused a scene in your office today. She claimed to have your child. What should I do?"Hearing her words, I bit my lip hard and felt hatred consume me.As I expected, Grady went silent for a moment before saying in disdain, "Do whatever you need to do. Don't let it get big."'How ironic,' I thought.However, it wasn't because Grady didn't care about me. On the contrary, he cared for me very much.Ever since we failed to have a child for years, we had come to an unspoken agreement as to not to discuss the topic of children. Whenever someone brought it up, we would change the subject. Thus, Grady's reaction just now was likely out

Chapter 7 Justice Has Arrived

I huddled powerlessly in the corner like a broken doll as I closed my eyes and pretended to have fainted from blood loss.Seeing that her goal was achieved, Melissa stood up and straightened the wrinkles in her skirt. Then, she put back on her graceful demeanor as she opened the door and giggled. "Did I do a good job? What's my reward?"She expressed concern about why Grady had come in person. While it seemed as if she was worried about him, she was actually testing to see if he harbored any suspicions."I just wanted to learn more about the team you brought back," Grady replied. Then, he asked casually, "About that woman you mentioned earlier. Where did she go? After all, this concerns the company's image. We can't make things turn ugly."They continued to chat, and I noticed Grady didn't seem to have any intention of entering the stairwell. Moreover, I sensed that he was about to leave.After some time, I choked out his name in a trembling voice.In that split second, they trie

Chapter 8 A New Life

In the end, the baby didn't make it.As I placed my hand on my now empty belly, I looked into the void.I wanted to cry, but I had no more tears to shed. Perhaps they had dried up during that endless pleading.Given my poor health condition, conceiving this child had been nearly impossible. Yet, I was unable to protect it. The doctor told me that there was a possibility I could get pregnant again in the future when the medical industry became more advanced. However, I knew my chances of conceiving again were nearly nonexistent.All those involved in the incident received summonses that very day. Then, they visited me and begged for forgiveness. However, I treated them with the same cold attitude they had shown me before.Only Melissa managed to slip away.Years ago, she had been involved in a bullying scandal at school. However, she got away with it with the help of a forged mental health diagnosis. Then, she fled abroad until everything was settled.This time, she tried to pull
