Ryan shouted, his voice filled with indignation, as though he had just been gravely insulted.
He began frantically dialing my number.
Sitting inside my car. I glanced at the screen lighting up with his repeated calls and set my phone aside.

Now’s my turn to ignore him.

infuriated staff deleted all of their maternity photos in front of the pair.
Later that evening, Ryan called me again.
His voice carried no guilt.
Instead, it was masked with a carefully measured tore of weariness, mixed with a hefty dose of anger.
“I told you! There’s a tricky project at work right now, and the whole company’s working overtime. What’s wrong with you? Giving me a frozen card and ruining my plans! Can you afford to compensate for this mess?”
I lowered my gaze, suppressing the ache in my heart.
I had already expected this response, yet it still stung
From the other end of the line, I heard Linda’s voice in the background.
Honey, the baby’s licking again! Come feel
Ryan immediately lowered his voice, as if moving to another room.
He steadied histone and began, “Sweetheart, 1”
I cut him off before he could continue, feigning ignorance of what I had just overheard.
“What could you possibly be so busy with?”
“Huh?” Ryan froze, stunned by the unusual sharpness in my t

“Your job. Most of the work you claim to be doing is actually handled by me at home. The funds you brag about? They come from the connections of my family. If you’re still overwhelmed despite all of this, it only proves you’re incompetent”
⠀⠀ “And don’t forget. Tomorrow, we’re going to the Civil Affairs Bureau to finalize our divorce.”
Without waiting for his response, I hung up decisively
He had always complained about me being too clingy
Surely he’d be satisfied with this version of me now
The next morning, the doorbell rang-

I opened the door to find a deliveryman w
bouquet of roses.
“These are from a Mr. Ryan “the deliveryman began.
Before he could finish, I tossed the flowers inter the trash without hesitation.
Thad made up my mind to let go of everything tied to hims
No matter what it was, I didn’t want it anymore..
Heft for the Civil Affairs Bureau.
Heavy rain poured down, but it couldn’t dampen my determinations
the time I arrived with the signed divorce papers, I was surprised to see that it wasn’t Ryan waiting at the entrance hut Linda.
She greeted me with a bright, smug sule, waving a photo in her hand.
“Hey, look at this! Who knew you, the perfect wife, could be caught sneaking around with another man?”
The photo showed Diban and me in an embrace.
He was gently stroking my hair, comforting me.
I stayed calm and asked. “What do you want?”
“I heard you’re divorcing Ryan. Looks like you’re not completely hopeless after all,” she said, tilting her chin up with pride.
“Your husband is mine now, and my child will inherit his fortune. I won’t let you take a single penny. If you don’t walk away empty handed, I’ll make these photos public”
I laughed coldly. “Oh, really? Are you sure he actually has money for you and your child to inherit
Her smug expression faltered. “What do you mean by that?”
Thunder cracked across the sky as the rain intensified, flooding the streets.
I smirked. “Everything Ryan has is thanks to me and my family. Without us, he’d have nothing. The moment we divorce, I guarantee he’ll be broke in less than three months.”
Her confidence wavered, and she asked hesitantly, “You’re bluffing, right?”
I was done wasting words with her.
Turning to leave, I headed toward my car, intending to return home safely before the rain got worse.
But before I could step away. Linda grabbed my wrist tightly.
“Explain yourself! You’re not leaving until you do!”
Her nails dug into my skin painfully.
Pregnant and heavily burdened, I could only protect my stomach with one hand, ensuring my child remained unharmed.
The rainwater had risen to our calves, making it harder to move.
Then, a loud voice interrupted us
What are you two doing?!”
Ryan’appeared, and Linda’s demeanor instantly changed.
She ching to her belly, feigning innocence and sorrow
“Sophia, I never wanted to fight with you for Ryan. Please don’t hurt me. Can I just borrow‘ him for a while? I’ll give him back after I’ve had the baby, okay?

Ryan, höjaring this, turned furious. He stormed over, glaring at me.
“Sophia, why must you push Linda to the brink? Get lost! I’m taking her away!
He shoved me aside roughly, santched my car keys, and helped Linea into my car,
From the window, he looked at me coldly,
You should repent for your actions. If anything happens to Linda or her baby, I’ll make you pay.”
With that, he drove off, leaving me stranded in the pouring rain, the car my only chance of escape from the rising floodwaters.
Alone, burdened by my heavy belly, I struggled to walk through the storm.
ags mixed with rain as despair overwhelmed me.
Finally, I collapsed under the onslaught of the flood.
Look! There’s a pregnant woman over there!
Voices from the rescue team echoed in my fading consciousness.
“Get a doctor! Notify her family!”
Pain and exhaustion dragged me into darkness.
The next thing I remembered was being rushed into surgery, doctors scrambling to deliver my child.
“The patient is in critical condition,” one of them said urgently. “There’s a risk of massive bleeding. Where is her husband? We need his consent for the operation!”
