Chapter 2

I did not enter the room to interrupt them. Instead, I contacted a private detective to collect evidence of their wrongdoings.

I spent a few days at the hotel. Aaron called. “Dear, what time are you coming back today? I’ve made some food for you.”

I still needed some time to collect the evidence, so I simply said, “I’m reaching in the afternoon.”

Aaron personally came and picked me up. He made me a lot of my favorite food, and they smelled really delicious.

In the past, I always thought it was because Aaron loved me too much, and that was why he learned how to cook.

As I recalled, I realized he was trying to win my trust and steal my inheritance that I got from my mother.

“Why are you crying?” Aaron noticed that something was wrong with me. He immediately pulled me into a tight embrace as he comforted me with a soft voice. “Is it because you miss me too much from not seeing me for a long time?

“I miss you too. Every day, I was counting down to the day of your return.

“I finally realized that I won’t be able to live without you. We must grow old together.”

I smiled bitterly and cut his lies short. “Let’s eat. I’m hungry.”

When Aaron was serving me some soup, his phone rang.

I saw the caller ID started with the alphabet “K”. Aaron noticed me watching his phone screen, so he avoided eye contact and explained, “It’s Kevin Smith, my colleague.

“What? Are you alright?

“Sure, I’ll head over now.”

Aaron was frowning when he explained to me in a trembling voice, “An important project that Kevin and I work on has run into some issues. I have to go over now to settle it.”

I smiled and nodded.

“Baby, you’re always so understanding. I love you.” Aaron kissed my forehead and immediately left.

As I looked at his leaving back, my body turned cold. I tried very hard to suppress the coldness in my chest until I felt numb.

After a while, the private detective sent me a few photos.

Kaitlyn’s face was pale as she lay weakly on the hospital bed. My father and Aaron were by her side. To them, Kaitlyn was their whole world.

I followed Aaron’s car as he drove to a private hospital. I followed him into the hospital.

I hid behind the door and witnessed their happiness.

“I felt some pain in my abdomen just now. I thought our child was dying.”

“Our child will grow up healthily.” Aaron kissed Kaitlyn with the same lips that he had just kissed me.

My father smiled in satisfaction as he looked at the sweet couple. Suddenly, he seemed to think about something. His face fell. “Aaron, how’s your progress with Elena? When will she give you her money? Back when I remarried, she had cut ties with me. She said she would not give a single cent of her mother’s inheritance to me. Was she really thinking I should spend the rest of my life alone?”

“Of course not. You have the right to find your own happiness, and you have the freedom to remarry. Now, Elena trusts me very much. I believe she will transfer her shares from Stance Corporation to me very soon. I’ll make a will after I get her assets, and all the money would belong to Kaitlyn and my child.”

All three of them smiled in satisfaction. They looked like a happy family.

Just when I was about to leave, my stepmother, Jolene Anderson, bumped into me.
