Chapter 10%
Blake stared at Maximilian intently, disbelief written all over his face
Then, his gaze shifted to me.
“Delilah, I brought you a gift. Please, take a look at it before you decide whether you want to marry him, okay?“%
“You’ll definitely like it. Trust me, just take a look.“W
I couldn’t have cared less about whatever he was holding.
The only reason I had given him the invitation that day was to make him back off, to finally stop bothering me.%
Who could have guessed it would give him an opportunity to cause a scene at my wedding?
Before I could respond, Blake hurried forward and opened the box right in front of me.”
A sharp, sickening stench and the sight of dark red flesh immediately assaulted me, making me instinctively cover my mouth and nose.% “Delilah, that bitch Alison made me abort our child back then. Now I’ve made her pregnant again and I used her child to accompany ours in death…”
“Please, don’t be mad at me anymore, okay?”
At that moment, the man before me seemed utterly alien.
It was unfathomable, he had actually terminated Alison’s pregnancy with his own hands, thinking it might somehow win me back.
And he had even brought the tiny, lifeless thing to show me.
He thought this would make things right; how absurd!

“Delilah, I love you… I really love you…“W
His voice cracked as he cried out, but before I could react, security dragged him away.
The guests tried to calm down and the wedding finally was completed.
It was the start of my new life, a fresh chapter, one that would be different from the past.
Soon after, Alison sued Blake for unlawful imprisonment and intentional injury.
The shocking truths about Blake’s actions were exposed to the public.
On the day of the trial, the stock price of Jennings Corporation plummeted, bringing Blake’s empire to ruin.”
Meanwhile, I sat in the VIP lounge at the airport, waiting to board my flight.
Maximilian, ever so protective, leaned over, snatched the tablet from my hands and, with a playful smile, showed his jealousy.
“Wife, you should stay away from these grim news stories. Don’t upset the baby.”
“You’re right!”
I smiled, leaning into him as he tenderly stroked my small bump.
From that moment on,
