• “If it weren’t for her coercion, I wouldn’t be marrying her,” Justin blurted without the slightest restraint.
  • Then, he flipped them over and pinned Mabel beneath him.
  • “Darling, your fiancée is really here.”
  • Placing her hands against his chest, Mabel pointed in the direction of the bedroom door.
  • “That’s impossible! I just saw her off, so how could she…” While saying that, Justin couldn’t help glancing at the door. “Anna? Why are you here?”
  • The moment he spotted me, he froze instantly.
  • He swiftly scrambled off Mabel, his gaze brimming with panic as he regarded me.
  • At that very moment, his desire had long vanished without a trace. Panicked, he didn’t even have the time to cover his birthday suit.
  • Mabel, on the other hand, pulled the covers around herself and looked at me with a derisive sneer tugging at the corners of her mouth.
  • By then, my face was already stained with tears. Inundated by wrath and hatred, I wanted to vent at the cruelty of the truth, but I merely spun around to leave.
  • Justin quickly chased after me with a towel around his waist, his gaze radiating guilt. “I can explain, Anna…”
  • “What else is there to explain? I saw everything clear as day just now, so what else do you have to say?”
  • While I was hurting so much that I couldn’t even breathe, his offer of an explanation gave me a glimmer of hope.
  • But just then, Mabel appeared in Justin’s shirt. Her wavy curls were draped over her shoulders in a tousled mess. At that moment, she appeared all the more alluring.
  • She sauntered right up to me with a hint of defiance in her eyes. “Reese is Justin’s child.”
  • What did she just say? Reese? Her three-year-old child is actually Justin’s?
  • A glimmer of hope rose in my heart earlier, but a bomb blasted it apart when her words fell. For a moment there, I felt that my entire world had collapsed.
  • I nervously swung my gaze at Justin in hopes that he would deny it, but things didn’t transpire as I wished.
  • He hung his head slightly with guilt in his eyes, tacitly admitting that Reese was indeed his child.
  • It felt like a stab right to my heart. I wanted to scream and lash out, but words eluded me as I was overwhelmed with emotions.
  • Intense fury and enmity engulfed me.
  • How could they betray me by doing such a despicable thing? In the past seven years, I’ve regarded him as the man I love the most and the other as my best friend, yet they actually hooked up behind my back and even had a child together?
  • “You b*tch!”
  • As the lid on my wrath and humiliation exploded, I lifted my hand and swung it across Mabel’s face. I put so much strength into it that my hand went numb from the sting.
  • “Mabel!”
  • Justin’s voice rang out, filled with worry for Mabel.
  • Mabel’s face snapped to the side at my hard slap, but in the next moment, she abruptly jerked her head back and stared at me furiously.
  • “Are you okay, Mabel? Does it hurt?”
  • Justin gazed at Mabel with anguish written all over his face, and the sight of it sent a sharp stab of pain lancing through me again.
  • Is this for real? My fiancé is showing such concern for the homewrecker who ruined our relationship right in front of me? D*mn it all to hell!
  • “She hit me, Justin. My face hurts badly.”
  • Mabel put on a pitiful expression as she clutched at Justin’s arm, tears of anguish streaming down her face.
