Maeve Reese never expected her luck to be this terrible. After filly finding a chance to escape, she was caught right on the

spot.

She thought, Why did he have to return at this exact moment?

Maeve braced herself and retorted, "So what if I wanted to escape? How many times do I need to tell you? divorced! Can you please do me a favor and let me go!"

"Where do y you plan to go? To find Alex?" Byron Medaniel asked as his cool fingers pinched her earlobe, his eyes dark and deep.

Maeve was about to deny it but then thought, 'Why do I need to explain anything to him?'

She took a deep breath and replied, "Byron, do you really think this is amusing? You are about to get engaged to Miss Anderson, and yet you're still entangled with me. Don't you think it's a bit disgraceful?" Byron let out a cold laugh. "Entangled with you? Maeve, you really think too highly of yourself."

He thought. If she hadn't been determined to abort his child, would he have had to lock her up?"

"Then why don't you just let me go!" Maeve shot back.

Byron straightened up, looking down at her from above. "You can leave if you want, but you'll have to leave the child behind.

Maeve's face turned pale, her eyes filled with resistance. She screamed, "No! Don't even think about it! This is my child. Whether I keep it or not is my choice! You cannot force me!

She thought, I'm not asking him to give birth to it, nor to raise it So why is he so fixated on making me abort my child?

'Does he really hate me that much?
