The Secret Pregnancy of the Billionaire's Ex-Wife

Chapter 177: I'll Bear His Heir or Burn It All Down

Christina POV

My heart pounded against my ribs as I stood outside Sean's home, the cold night air biting through my coat.

This might be my last chance to salvage everything I'd worked for these past five years, I could feel it slipping away with each passing second.

When Sean's car had pulled up to the curb, I'd rushed forward without thinking.

“Sean, I'm sorry,” I rushed to explain, my voice cracking. “I shouldn't have kept it from you. But I had my reasons. Your marriage to Angela was just a business arrangement, but then she slept with you and got pregnant! I loved you so much- how was I supposed to accept that? I made a mistake because I loved you too much."

The words tumbled from my lips in desperate succession. Sean remained unmoved, his silence more damning than any accusation.

"Besides, I only deleted the text," I continued, grasping at straws. "I didn't do anything truly terrible to her. She still had the 4 children, didn't she? If you're willing, I could raise Aria and Ethan as my own. I wouldn't even have my own children. Please, Sean."

"My own children," he finally spoke, each word like ice, "don't need anyone else to raise them."

His eyes filled with a cold anger I had never seen before.

"If you hadn't saved my life in that yacht accident..." he said, his voice dangerously low, "if it weren't for that life debt..."

My blood ran cold. The unspoken threat hung between us-if not for my act of heroism that day, he wouldn't hesitate to destroy me and possibly the entire Jordan family.
