Chapter 568

Chapter 568

Lucas had finally come to a heartbreaking realization: Linda was the one who cared the least about him. She couldn't care less if he lived or died. His eyes were blazing with anger. "Linda, you've wrecked everything. You've ruined my life. You're truly despicable." As he tightened his grip, Linda frantically tried to pry his hand away, her eyes bloodshot and gasping for air. "Lucas... do you really want to harm... the child I'm carrying?"

Her words hit him like a cold splash of reality. The child-yes, that was all he had left. The only flicker of hope in his otherwise bleak existence. Reluctantly, Lucas released her.

He wished he could tear her apart for the betrayal, the lies, the way she'd manipulated him. But there was a secret binding them that couldn't see the light of day. He couldn't kill her, so the best he could do was banish her from his life forever.
