Chapter 2

"Please, no, I beg you, don't! This child is the fruit of my love with Henry. With this child, Henry will eventually come back to me, he will eventually fall in love with me. Please, don't!"

Don't?

Back then, I begged him in my mind, not to harm my dearest family for the sake of a man, leaving my brother cold and lifeless in bed.

Did she listen to me?

Never.

She made her own decisions, for the sake of a creepy, despicable, and utterly useless man, she destroyed my family, leaving us in ruins.

Since she never heeded my pleas, why should I heed hers?

"Dream on."

"Gemma, this is my body, but it's carrying your seed. It's like a parasite, devouring my health. Why should I keep it? For the sake of your and Henry's illusory love?"

"Let me tell you, he doesn't love you at all. To him, you're not even worth trash, understand? You're nothing but a doormat."

"You're lying! He loves me, he clearly loves me!"

Gemma screamed hysterically in my mind, but no matter how much she raged, I would never change my mind.

I wanted this child dead, I wanted Henry dead, and I wanted Gemma dead.

Everyone who destroyed my family had to die.

I sneered and gripped my phone tightly.
