Chapter 1

On my daughter’s death anniversary, six months pregnant, I was in a car accident. The doctor told me to call my husband to sign the consent form. Gritting my teeth, I dialed my husband Lester Turner’s number, but it never went through. Ten minutes later, I lost my second child. Waking up in the hospital, I opened my phone and scrolled through my mother-in-law’s Instagram feed. The photo showed a happy family of four. The caption read: [The Turner Family is welcoming their second little prince. I only hope that shameless slut leaves my son alone.] So on the day of my accident, Lester had taken his white moonlight to the amusement park. Their first child was the same age as my deceased daughter, and Letitia Roberts was pregnant again! I stared at my phone and smiled bitterly. Since he had already betrayed me, it was time for me to leave too. ****** ****** After discovering Lester's infidelity, I,Lorraine Green did two things. The first thing is to find a hospital to take away the flesh and blood of the six-month-old child. Second, I drafted two agreements: one for divorce, and the other for resignation. Finally, I called my father. “Dad, I agree to return and inherit the Green Family. I'll go back once my immigration papers are approved.” “You've finally figured it out. Lester isn't right for you. ” I suppressed my grief and nodded. “You're right, Dad.” After hanging up the phone, I looked at the box containing my child in my hand and shed silent tears. Moments later, as I turned to leave, a familiar name pierced the air. “Mr. Turner, it's not that I'm greedy. There were just too many people involved back then. If their mouths aren't sealed, we'll be in trouble.” I froze instantly. The man inside had once been my daughter's attending physician. For some reason, a chill gripped my heart. I sensed his next words would shatter my world. The doctor didn't notice my presence and continued speaking. “If it were known, Mr. Turner, that you stole the donated heart on the day of your daughter's surgery, I'm afraid the stocks of the Turner Group would cause a stir, wouldn't they? ” The threat in his voice instantly enraged Lester on the other end of the line. As the words registered, I clutched my chest tightly. “I also know you stole that heart to save Letitia's child. I just wonder how Ms. Turner will react when she finds out...” In that instant, my heart twisted in agony as the full truth dawned on me. Letitia was Lester's first love. Seven years ago, the Turner Family suffered a heavy blow and was on the verge of bankruptcy. Upon learning this, Letitia chose to leave the country without hesitation. It was I who married Lester with a substantial dowry, and reviving the Turner Group. Three years ago, Letitia returned to the country. From that moment on, Lester became increasingly distracted during our dates. He even missed countless anniversaries and holidays. I assumed it was due to problems at Turner Group. But then I saw Lester and Letitia kissing passionately in his office! That day, bursting through the door, I raged like a madwoman. All I got in return was Lester's weary gaze. He explained Letitia had accidentally bumped into him—what I saw was a misunderstanding. We endured a month of cold war until our daughter's heart condition was diagnosed, which briefly mending our relationship. That day, Lester embraced me and our daughter, kissed my forehead and vowed tenderly: “As long as I remain head of the Turner Group, I will not let my daughter die.” I believed him. A compatible donor for my daughter's heart was found quickly. I thought everything was back on track. Until her surgery failed. To help me heal faster, Lester got me pregnant with our second child. The truth behind my daughter's failed surgery was this: Lester chose to sacrifice my daughter without hesitation to abandon Letitia, who had once been his. He even chose to accompany Letitia and her illegitimate child on an outing on my daughter's memorial day. Thinking of my daughter's tiny body, I clutched my chest tightly, the unhealed wounds from the car accident beginning to throb again. Since Lester loves Letitia, I will take my sacrifices and leave his world forever!
