“Tell you? And then what?”
“What verolil you do? Secretly get rid of the child and continue putting a green hat on me?”
“Celeste, how dare you question mel
At this point, Hector was consumed with anger. No matter what I said, he wouldn’t believe ine,
Taking a deep breath, I stood up, intending to leave.
Hector grabbed my wrist tightly
What now? Running away because you’ve run out of excuses? Going to call your lover to save you?“.
“This child must be aborted. My wife can carry someone else’s child.”
“As for our marriage, we’ll talk about it after you get rid of the child.”
Hearing this. Gemma quickly chimed in.
“What do you mean, talk about it after she gets rid of the child? Are you still reluctant to divorce her?”
Hector, how can you indulge her like this?”
“She’s pregnant now–who knows how many filthy things she’s done with that man…”
Hector suddenly turned and shouted at Gemma, his voice full of fury.
“This is between us. It has nothing to do with you!”
Startled by Hector’s outburst, Gemma pursed her lips, seemingly wanting to say more but ultimately staying silent..
Meanwhile, my mind was stuck on the words Hector had just said.
He wanted to get rid of our child.
I yanked my hand out of Hector’s grasp and took two steps hack
“Hector, this is my child!”
“We’ve been married for three years, and I’ve only just now conceived. What right do you have to take this child away from me?”
“As long as I’m alive, no one will harm him!”
Hearing my words, the anger Hector had been suppressing finally exploded. Ee slapped me hard across the face.
Caught off guard, I fell to the floor, unable to get up immediately.
Hector grabbed the collar of my shirt, his voice as cold as death itself.
“Celeste, t this isn’t a discussion.”
“You are my wife, carrying another man’s child in your womb.”
“Do you know how lucky you are that murder is illegal? Otherwise, I’d kill you right here and now?”
I wasn’t sure if it was

Hearing my ples, Hector’s eyes widened in disbelief, as though he couldn’t here what he’d jau heard.
“Celeste, you’ve begging me?
You’re begging me for the life of the bastard in your belly?
After saying this, he abruptly stood up and turned to Gemma, who was standing nearly.
“Call you mony’s hospital. Have them send an ambulance over.
Today, that bastard is going to dier
A slight smirk played on Gemma’s lips as she turned and walked out to make the call.
Desperate, I scrambled up from the floor, crawling on my hands and kawes to grah Hector’s pant leg tightly.
“Hector, I’m begging you, please don’t hurt this child.”
“You’re angry right now. Let’s talk about this once you’ve calmed down.”
“Yes, my brother–I’ll call my brother right now. I’ll have him explain everything to you
Before I could finish my sentence, Hector finally snapped. He kicked me hard in the shoulder.
“Celeste! You make me sick!”
“Either that bastard in your belly dies today-
“Or you die with him!”
Hector’s kick landed with full force, causing my forehead to slam against the corner of the coffee table.
A sharp, searing pain shat through me, and everything went black as I lost consciousness.
I didn’t know how much time had passed when I was awakened by the sound of voices.
“Mom, was it your pills that didn’t work? Otherwise, how could that bitch have gotten pregnant?

“Good
“But it looks like Hector still trusts us for now.”
