Chapter 2

A black fountain pen was dropped onto the document with a soft clink.

Linda stared at the pen absentmindedly before she picked it up. With trembling hands, she removed the cap and signed her name on the divorce papers.

With all her remaining strength, she threw the document toward William.

A single tear fell onto the diagnostic report in her hand, and it spread like smudged ink on paper. It wasn't just the end of this fruitless love affair that hurt her, but the loss of an innocent child.

Linda forced a smile and sighed softly. "From now on, we have no further ties. Mr. Wilson, I'm truly sorry for wasting four years of your life. From now on, you're free."

William remained silent. He bent down to pick up the divorce papers from the floor and walked out of the ward.

As soon as he left, Linda broke down and wailed uncontrollably. Her pale hands that gripped the rough hospital blanket were now marked with red imprints.

After a long time, she placed her hand on her flat abdomen. She still couldn't believe that this place had once held a tiny life that lasted only 61 days.

Seeing the diagnostic report in front of her, the hatred in Linda's eyes boiled. Despite all her efforts and sacrifices, William never loved her. To him, she was merely a scheming woman who deserved her fate. Thinking back, her apparent weakness over the past two months wasn't due to illness but early pregnancy symptoms.

Joanne, who had given birth before, was the one behind her fall into the lake. It dawned on Linda that Joanne and Ida were the ones who had killed her child. They were the true villains.

But, no matter who the killers were, she vowed to make them pay. Even if she was at fault, they had no right to harm an innocent child.
