The Ruined Bride of Velvet Nights by Brick Moving Ant

Chapter 8

This girl was the one I had adopted abroad.

Her mother died in the merciless artillery fire while saving me.

And her relatives had all passed away before that, leaving only her, a small child.

When I adopted her, she was only three years old, thin and small, with bloodstains all over her body and eyes full of confusion and fear.

She felt like a gift from heaven to make up for the child I lost.

In just half a year, she had become plump and fair, with sweet dimples on her cheeks when she smiled, and her eyes sparkling with brightness.

I pinched her chubby little face and introduced her to Henry, “This is my daughter, Amy.”

Then I added, “Amy, quickly say hello to Uncle.”

Amy was very obedient, smiling sweetly and greeting, “Hello, Uncle.”

Henry’s face immediately drained of color. He wanted to smile, but couldn’t.

“Anna, what is going on? Why do you suddenly have a daughter? Are you joking with me?”

I didn’t answer him, just sighed.

“Henry, take some time and let’s go get the divorce certificate,” I said, then paused and softened my tone, “You and Nancy’s child should have been born by now. Don’t you want the child to be labeled as an illegitimate child?”

“Anna, he’s not an illegitimate child, he could be our child…”

Henry spoke urgently, but before he could finish, Amy pouted, dissatisfied, and said, “A little child can only have one mommy and daddy, your baby has his own mommy, and Anna can’t be his

mommy!”

Upon hearing this, I smiled and patted her head, then looked at Henry and said in a soft voice, “See,
