Chapter 1 The Fracture

When Daniel Shaw finally came home, he wasn’t alone. Vivian Shaw, his parents' adopted daughter and his sister in name only, was with him.Spotting me standing in the living room, he frowned. "Where's our son? Weren't we supposed to take him to the amusement park today?"My fingers were still throbbing from lighting candles just moments before. Turning to face him, I asked, "Why has your phone been off all this time?"Vivian, clinging to his arm, spoke up timidly, her voice dripping with feigned innocence. "Sorry, Sophie, it's all my fault. I had a miscarriage scare and was hospitalized. Daniel stayed with me and didn't realize his phone was off."I scoffed internally. 'A miscarriage scare—how convenient. How bold mistresses have become. Fifteen days of a dead phone; who'd believe that?'But I was too drained to argue. I pulled out a suitcase, the wheels scraping against the floor."What are you doing now?" Daniel demanded. "Going somewhere with Noah again? Don't you know his hea

Chapter 2 The Bitter Truth

Liam had been Noah's doctor from the beginning. He cared deeply for him, often saying Noah was the most well-behaved and cooperative patient he had ever seen.Over the phone, his voice was filled with exasperation. "Mr. Shaw, I can't fathom how you can call yourself a father. How could you be unreachable during such a crucial time for the bone marrow transplant? "Do you realize how much Noah suffered before he died? If you weren't going to show up, you should've told us sooner so we could find another donor. You've essentially let your son die."I've never known a father like you," he added, his words cutting like a knife.Daniel's phone slipped from his grasp, his face draining of color. He lunged at me, grabbing my collar in desperation. "Noah… How could he die? Why didn't you come looking for me? What kind of mother just lets this happen?"My hand flew, striking his face with all the force of my anger. "Go looking for you? How? Your phone was off, your location was hidden, and

Chapter 3 Shattered Illusions

Before our wedding, Daniel warned me, "Beyond the title, I'll give you nothing. If it weren't for you, Vivian wouldn't have left."After we got married, he and I settled into separate bedrooms, playing the part of a happy couple only when his parents were around.A year later, his parents finally sensed something was amiss and demanded he have a child, warning that if I didn't conceive, Vivian would never be allowed back. I was clueless about these hidden strings being pulled behind the scenes.From that moment on, Daniel's attitude softened remarkably. He began inviting me out to dinner, gifting me small trinkets, and driving me to and from work. Every week, he joined me for visits to my grandmother.Rumors of a supposed romance between the CEO and his assistant started spreading through the company, and I found myself wondering if we had somehow both settled into this arrangement and decided to make the best of it.Then came my birthday. We had some wine, and everything flow

Chapter 4 The Unraveling

Vivian clutched her cheek, stunned. "Mom?"With tears streaming down her face, Daniel's mother shook her head. "I'm not your mother. I raised you, and gave you all the care I could, and once you graduated, we cut those ties. "Your name was taken off our family registry. Don't call me 'Mom' anymore. There's no blood between us."With one arm around Vivian, Daniel looked at his mother, pleading, "Mom, this isn't her fault. I'm the one responsible here. Isn't it enough that you sent her away for all those years? She's even expecting our child now."Clutching her chest as if to shield herself from further pain, his mother replied, "To me, there's only one grandchild, and that was Noah. She can't be part of our family with a child, thinking it'll change things. She can forget about it!"Daniel's father supported her, his gaze heavy on Daniel. "All our efforts raising you, teaching you what was right and just, and this is where we end up? You're a disappointment!"Daniel retorted, "I

Chapter 5 Broken Ties, Shattered Hopes

Daniel scoffed, "Half of my fortune, Sophie? You've been pretending you don't care about money all this time, but now your true colors are showing. You can dream on! What makes you think you deserve half?"I turned and glanced at Vivian, her hand protectively resting over her belly. "Because of that baby she's carrying. You want to make her wait?"Yes, Vivian was pregnant. This secret, which Daniel had meant to keep as a trump card to marry her and make her officially part of the Shaws, had been spoiled by Vivian herself when she just couldn't resist sharing her 'good news' all over social media.I smirked. "I'm in no rush. With your family taking care of me, I've got all the time in the world. My son is the first grandson here. But her? Can she afford to wait? You want your beloved to have a child out of wedlock? Guess you don't love her that much."'Two can play this game. You want to be snarky, huh? So can I,' I thought to myself.Vivian started whining, and soon, her argument

Chapter 6 Rising From The Ashes

With Noah gone, I poured myself into my work. My clients had always valued my expertise, and now, without distractions, everything seemed to click effortlessly. The company didn't just function as it had before; in fact, it thrived even more without Daniel's presence.I introduced a Family Day each month, where employees could bring their loved ones to tour the office. Everyone said it made the workplace feel warmer and more genuine—it was a pleasant change from the past.Meanwhile, Daniel attempted to start a business of his own.Perhaps he thought he could build a new empire, but without the Shaws backing him, he soon realized that people weren't as eager to support his ventures.At a business conference, I attended as the Shaw Group's representative, and there he was—Daniel, a shadow of his former self. His earlier confidence had faded, replaced by a hint of resignation. Watching me surrounded by others, he finally approached me during a quiet moment."Didn't expect you

Chapter 7 The Reckoning

I smirked. "Miss Shaw, if having his baby doesn't make you his wife, I truly can't help you. You're wasting your breath. "Think about it—if he has a mistress, why can't there be a second or a third in line? After all, the next one might be even better."I tilted my head, pretending to ponder the situation. "And let's be real—his parents would approve of almost anyone before they'd accept you. Marrying you would be like pulling teeth, and you know it."My words sliced through her like a blade, and her face twisted with anger. "If he's thinking of ditching me, he can dream on!"I waved her toward the door. "If you've got time to bother me, go make a scene with him. Maybe find his other mistresses. I'm sure there are plenty of them to keep you busy."Her face blanched, and she fled, barely holding herself together.News of her premature delivery reached me through a friend who happened to be on call that night.My friend, an obstetrician, sounded almost incredulous when she called
