When Love Becomes a Lie

Because my husband, Ethan, had issues in certain aspects, we had always presented ourselves as child-free to others.But in the sixth year of our marriage, Ethan suddenly said he wanted a child.I went through countless injections and medications, pushing myself to the limit, and finally succeeded in getting pregnant.It wasn’t until after a prenatal checkup that I heard Ethan talking to his friend on the phone in the hospital stairwell.“Jake, I thought you only loved Chloe? Why did you let your wife get pregnant then?” his friend asked.Ethan let out a disdainful chuckle.“I feel bad for Chloe; I can't bear to let her go through the pain of childbirth again.”“If it weren't for saving our Leo with umbilical cord blood, I would never let Luna have a child for me.”
