Chapter 1

The smell of disinfectant pervaded the air in the hospital.

Irene Nelson dashed out of the doctor's office excitedly with the lab results in her hands. Just when she was about to make a phone call, her cellphone rang. When she picked it up, she heard her uncle say, "Irene, is everything alright between you and Edric?"

"We're fine. Why did you ask?"

"I heard that Edric brought a pregnant lady to the hospital for a prenatal checkup the day before yesterday..."

Irene burst into laughter and replied, "You think Edric has a kept woman?"

"Yes!"

"Don't worry. Of all men, Edric's the last person in the world who would do such a thing."

After Irene hung up the call with her uncle, called Edric Myers. However, he only answered after the phone rang for a long time. "I'm very busy. Don't call and disturb me if it's nothing important! That's it for now."

He sounded cold and emotionless and hung up before Irene could say anything. Irene held onto the test results, feeling as if her burning passion was frozen instantly.

Since they got married three years ago, Edric was always very gentle to her. But recently, there was an abrupt change in his attitude, not only cold, even when answering her call, he was also impatient, which made her wonder what caused such a drastic change in him.

With her mind preoccupied by her thoughts, Irene turned and saw a figure pop up before her. "Sis!" a gentle voice called out.

When Irene looked over, she saw Lily Cook who was accompanied by a middle-aged woman.

Irene frowned at the sight of Lily, who was the daughter of a mistress. With a look of contempt on her face, she retorted coldly, "Mind your words. I'm the only child that my mother has ever given birth to." Instead of getting angry by her reply, Lily merely beamed and asked gently, "Irene, are you here for your infertility check up again?"

"It's none of your business."

asked and raised an eyebrow at Irene provocatively. She then chuckled and announced, "I'm pregnant with Edric's child!" Irene only noticed her tiny baby bump right after she said this. All along, Lily had been very obvious about her feelings towards Edric and would always find ways to hook up with him before he married Irene. However, Irene merely sneered and replied, "Are you
