Nine months too late: After divorce by Baby Charlene

Chapter 8

"Away from you," she glared into his face as she replied.

There were traces of dried up tears on her cheeks. It broke her so much to know her baby would be raised without a father.

Two steps brought Kage very close to her. "Why, huh? You going to meet the real father of that child?"

Sylvie scoffed, looking at him with disgust. "You're utterly unbelievable."

"Why? Is it utterly impossible that you'd slept around and carried another man's child? We've never liked each other, Sylvie You had no reason to stay committed to the marriage." "Well just because your third leg dangling between your other two doesn't know when to stop doesn't mean we're the same

She kept screaming until she was at the end of the staircase. Horror filled her eyes.

"Hey, are...are you alright?" He was perplexed.
