All the words I wanted to utter were stuck in my throat!
I actually tried to argue with him.
When I lay in the ICU and learned that my baby y was taken away from me, the nurse asked me,
“Do you wanna take a look at the fetus?”
I had no strength back then, but I still asked the nurse to let me take a final look at her.
It was a girl Ethan had always wanted.
He had been imagining having a daughter since we were in the orphanage.
“Yara, I will marry you when I grow up. We’ll have a daughter, and I’ll spoil you two.”
I could never forget how serious Ethan was at that moment. I could see my reflection in his eyes,8
I teased him for not focusing on studying and being too obsessed with those ridiculous love stories.
But he told me he was serious about it.
Ethan was even willing to die for me at that time.
We supported each other and got out of the orphanage.
We were like destined lovers who were one another’s salvation and support
When Ethan married me, he hadn’t been back to the Sean family.
The cramped basement was our wedding room.!!
It was a winter day. Our electric blanket caught on fire. I did my best to get Ethan, who had a high fever, out of the room.
But when I returned to get his computer, which he attached great importance, I was trapped in the fire.
I got burned, and my skin was left with large areas of scars because we were too poor to get proper treatment.
Even though I was covered in scars, Ethan still cared for me instead of feeling disgusted.
Then, I got pregnant with Daniel, and the Sean family found Ethan.
Ethan’s grandmother hated me for not coming from a good family or having a good appearance. She forced Ethan to divorce me and gave me five million dollars in compensation. But I refused her.!
All I knew was that Ethan was my husband. He and I would be together for the rest of our lives.
But our love didn’t move the Sean family.
I had several accidents, and Ethan successfully protected me and my child.
The person who helped us was Brenda.
I was grateful to her but, also wary of her!!
I had no confidence in facing Brenda because of my ruined face X
Even though I felt reluctant, I had to admit that Ethan needed Brenda.
Ethan’s situation in the Sean family wasn’t good when he just returned. People were waiting for him to make a fool of himself. Then, they could take power from him. The business world was like a battlefield, and the tricks they played were simply beyond my imagination,
Under Brenda’s protection, Daniel was born safely, but Madam Sean still refused to acknowledge me as her granddaughter–in–law.
It was Brenda who put in a good word for me and made Daniel recognized by the Sean family.”
The condition was Brenda had to be Daniel’s nominal mother.
Later, Ethan spent a lot of money to treat my scars. As my scars faded, our love also faded to almost nothing.
The moment I saw our daughter, I knew that there was no future for Ethan and me.
My silence made Ethan realize that he had spoken out of turn.
“Alright. Do you know how scary it your face look when you’re upset? I’ll take you home and let you give the gift you picked to Daniel in person. Remember to wear a mask!“”
He sounded condescending again.
He called the Sean residence home.”
“That’s right. Brenda lives in the Sean residence. So, that’s home for Ethan.” I thought.
I did miss Daniel. That would probably be the last time I saw him.!
I nodded to agree.
“Let’s get divorced first. I’ll say goodbye to him properly.”
2:57 AM P P
I did miss Daniel. That would probably be the last time I saw him.
I nodded to agree.
“Let’s get divorced first. I’ll say goodbye to him properly.”
I didn’t know how my words offended Ethan, but he threw the Lego blocks that I had selected for Daniel out hard. His reaction destroyed the last hope I had left.
I picked up the photo frame I cherished the most and smashed it.”
Suddenly, Brenda opened the door and came in.!
