Back when he was just a poor graduate, I had defied my family, taken our marriage license, and married him.
In the early days of his startup, when he struggled with orders, I ran across the city negotiating deals, helping him build his company step by step.
On the day the company went public, he hugged me in tears, swearing I was the one he’d always be most grateful to.
And now?
He was tired of the wife who shared his hardships, and showered affection on his assistant instead.
Yet I still carried his child!
“Daniel… please…” I clutched my belly, barely able to stand, tears streaming down with the icy water.
“Baby Sam… he can’t hold on much longer…”
One of the guards glanced at my pale face and hesitated. “Mr. Miller, she really looks bad. And the baby is yours—”
Smack! Daniel’s slap cracked across the guard’s face.
“You care about her so much? You sleeping with her too?!”
The guard bowed his head quickly. “No, sir.”
Daniel roared louder, glaring at me. “Stop using the baby to threaten me! Who knows if that child is even mine!”
“What did you say?” I jerked my head up, stunned.
