And then… Sabrina came back.
That day. Chelsea had just gotten off work when she saw Magnus waiting for her by the office gate.
She sighed and turned to take another route, hoping to avoid him altogether. But just then, a speeding car came out of nowhere, headed straight for her!
“Watch out!” Magnus’s voice shouted from behind.
Before she could react, something slammed into her warm and solid
The sound of screeching brakes tore through the night, and when she finally opened her eyes, she realized she was in
“You okay?” he asked, breathless, one hand gently rubbing her back.
Before Chelsea could even reply, the car door opened–and out stepped a woman.8
“Chelsea, why? Why do you always come out alive?!”
It was Sabrina.!
Magnus’s arms.
Her eyes were bloodshot with rage as she stormed over. Before anyone could stop her, she raised her hand and slapped Chelsea hard across the face.
“Sabrina? What the hell?!” Magnus’s face went pale as he recognized her.
She laughed bitterly. “Surprised? I’m already out. Didn’t take long, did it? I told you–I said I’d make you both pay.”
As she spoke, she reached into her bag, pulling out a knife and lunging straight at Chelsea
But Magnus was faster. With one swift move, he grabbed her wrist, twisted the knife from her hand, and forced her arms behind her back.
“I don’t know how you got out he said coldly, “but this time, I’ll make sure you go back and stay there.”
Sabrina’s expression twisted.
You can’t do this to me, Magnus. I’m carrying your child–your family’s hel
In the hospital hallway, Sabrina sat curled in a corner, her hand protectively cradling her stomach. She rocked back and forth, whispering to herself.
“Hahaha… Magnus, you can’t send me back. I’m pregnant. I’m pregnant with your baby. Be good, baby. Mommy’s okay. Daddy’s not mad
anymore.”
Watching her like that, so broken, so lost, Chelsea couldn’t describe what she felt. It wasn’t pity. It wasn’t anger. It was… disbelief.
How had this woman, once so proud, so determined, ended up like this?!!
She looked at Magnus, then at the medical report in his hand.
“Take her home, Magnus, she said quietly.8
And just like that, he left with Sabrina.
He disappeared as silently as he had come into her life.
And everything returned to normal E
Chelsea kept busy with work, running the company day in and day out. And during this time, Alaric made sure his feelings for her were crystal clear. He didn’t hide them–he laid his heart bare, openly and without hesitation.
