All Chapters of Love Like Falling Petals: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Just as Sophie Lord walked out of the doctor’s office, she called her husband, Luke Shaw, excitedly.However, as soon as she made the call, a familiar ringtone rang out in the crowd.Startled, she looked ahead and saw a scene that nearly caused her to have a mental breakdown.Luke, who had claimed to be on a business trip and unable to accompany her to the hospital, was there.Beside him stood a girl with a slightly bulged belly, holding his hand and placing it gently on her stomach.Moments later, a look of surprise and relief appeared on Luke’s face.It was the expression Sophie had imagined countless times when he would find out she was pregnant with his child.But now...She stood frozen, feeling as though something had lodged in her throat, leaving her unable to utter a single word.Even as the ringtone ended, Luke didn’t withdraw his hand to answer the call.With trembling hands, Sophie redialed his number, unwilling to give up.This time, Luke finally moved.He pulle

When Sophie woke up again, she was already lying in a hospital bed.Dr. Clinton’s eyes were slightly red, filled with regret. “I’m sorry. I couldn’t save the baby. But you’ll definitely be pregnant with another child...”For years, Dr. Clinton had been following Sophie’s case, so no one understood better how much Sophie had endured.After the surgery, Dr. Clinton overheard some nurses gossiping and learned about what had happened outside the office.She felt deeply upset on Sophie’s behalf, but as a doctor, there were things she couldn’t say. All she could do was offer her powerless comfort.Sophie stared blankly at the ceiling and murmured softly, “No, there won’t be a next time...”Dr. Clinton sighed, reminded her to rest well, and then left the room.Once the room was empty, Sophie pulled the blanket over her face and cried uncontrollably.She had once been so overjoyed, eagerly looking forward to the arrival of this child, and now she felt equally devastated.Her heart fel

Luke's mother noticed Sophie's silence and frowned slightly, inserting herself into the conversation."Don’t worry, Sophie. We've agreed that once the child is born, we'll cut ties with Helen. I'll take care of the baby myself and ensure it doesn't interfere with your and Luke's life."Besides... If you hadn't discovered this suddenly, it wouldn't have turned into such a messy situation. This is actually better for everyone. After all, you've been married for five years and still haven't been able to have a child..."Her words struck Sophie like a hammer, smashing into her heart and causing her eyes to turn red with pain.So, they had all known about this—every single one of them—except her. She was the only one they had deliberately kept in the dark.Why, then, should she have to pay for Luke's mistakes? Why should she be morally coerced into forgiving them?Sophie's body trembled with rage as she slapped Luke hard across the face and roared, "Get out! I will never forgive you!

The next morning, Sophie returned to the office.However, she didn't expect to run into Luke and Helen while getting on the elevator.Seeing the woman who had claimed to be so unwell the day before, Sophie couldn't help but sneer.Luke also clearly remembered the excuse from last night, and his face was filled with embarrassment.He hesitated for a moment, then quickly moved to stand next to Sophie, offering the bag in his hand in a flattering manner."Sophie, have you had breakfast? I brought you your favorite cake."Sophie hadn't had time to eat yet, so she casually took the bag without saying a word of thanks.As she watched Luke carefully trying to please her, Helen's eyes flashed with jealousy.She shot a glance at Luke and couldn't help but mutter resentfully, "Sophie, Mr. Shaw had to drive half an hour to get you this. Don't you think it's a bit ungrateful of you not to even say 'thank you'? Doesn't this seem like you're taking Mr. Shaw's kindness for granted?"Upon hea

After leaving the company, Sophie rushed back home.She packed her luggage and headed straight to the airport without hesitation, leaving behind a signed divorce agreement and a pregnancy test report.While waiting for her flight, Linda called Sophie.She hesitated for a moment but eventually decided to answer.As soon as the call connected, Linda impatiently started berating her."Sophie, you troublemaker! You're a lonely orphan, and now you want the Shaw family to end with you too? You're just useless. I'm telling you, if anything happens to the child in Helen's womb, I'll make sure my son divorces you, and you'll be left for dead!"Sophie felt a sharp pain in her heart as she listened.She was an orphan, without any family.For the past five years, she had genuinely treated Luke's family as her own.She believed she had done her best to play the role of a good daughter-in-law, always caring for them and being considerate.But now, Linda was stabbing her heart with such ven
