Chapter 3

I held back intense pain as I went to the hospital. I bled all over the floor because of my painful, swollen abdomen, and the doctor immediately admitted me into the emergency room. I was groggy when the doctor tried to console me, "You've suffered a serious physical wound on your abdomen, which caused you to miscarry."

My tears could not stop flowing as I sobbed silently. The doctor looked at me with pity and sighed. "Take good care of yourself, and you'll get pregnant again one day. You just need to be more careful about it in the future."

I caressed my belly tenderly as the last of my feelings for Henry vanished along with the loss of my child. I was reminded of what Henry and Ivy did in the last few years.

When Henry's older brother died, Ivy claimed she was suffering from depression and wanted to commit suicide. This prompted Henry to go to her side every day to shower her with concern. Henry did everything for Ivy, going as far as washing her delicates for her.

However, he was indignant when I confronted him about this. "Ivy isn't the healthiest person. She can't even be touching cold water. It's only right for me to take care of family."

Henry was never a fan of blue cheese, and he lost his temper the first time I tasted it. He hated it so much that he dug it out of my mouth. "Get out of the house if you dare eat something so disgusting again!"

However, Ivy loved blue cheese, and he bought the most expensive blue cheese he could find to share it with her.

On our wedding anniversary, Henry abandoned me at the restaurant just because Ivy said she had a nightmare and was feeling scared. I became a laughingstock because Henry ditched me, and as the restaurant was in the suburbs, I had to walk twenty miles back to the city because I could not get a cab.

Whenever I felt sad, Henry would get impatient and berate me, "Is crying all you can do? All you do is bring me bad luck with all this crying! Ivy is my sister-in-law. It's my responsibility to take care of her my entire life because my brother is gone."

I felt lost and in despair because of Henry's cold attitude toward me, and I lost my appetite because of this. I lost more weight because of this, and Henry became unhappier with me. "You can't even compare to Ivy! My brother was lucky to have married her. I can't take how vicious and petty you act every day!"

It scared me to think that Henry was disappointed in me, so I tried my best to get into his family's good graces every day.

At one point, I caught Ivy wearing sexy lingerie in Henry's office when I was bringing lunch to him. Ivy looked at me tauntingly as I raised my hand to slap her, but Henry stopped me. "I'm just helping Ivy put some cream on her because she broke out in hives. Can you stop imagining things between us, Tessa?"

I stared at both of them. "Does she need to be in sexy lingerie when you're putting cream on her?"

Ivy put on a frail, pitiful look when she apologized, "All of my innerwear looks like this. I'm just wearing less because the summer is too hot."

Henry chimed in, "She's right. Do you really need to dictate what others wear as well, Tessa?"

I laughed angrily at how indignant they were with their excuses.

When I got back from the hospital, I took all my luggage with me from the condo while I packed up all of Henry's belongings and threw them away. I paid in full for this condo, and I quickly sold it off via an online property site. I no longer wanted anything connected to Henry.

My mother-in-law kept calling me continuously, but I hung up every time.

I scanned through my social media accounts to see Ivy's latest post. [I'm feeling low recently, and someone took me on a vacation. What a wonderful feeling.] The post had a picture of her selfie attached to it, but I recognized the watch revealed at the corner of the picture. It belonged to Henry.

That was when I messaged my father's assistant right away. "Retract all investment to Garner Enterprise and stop all current projects we have with them. I want a public announcement stating that the Eckers will no longer be working with Garner Enterprise."

The Eckers were the most influential family in Capital City. Any smart person would know not to offend the Eckers over an insignificant company like Garner Enterprise.

"Post these pictures online." I shared pictures of Ivy wearing sexy lingerie in Henry's office with my father's assistant. I wanted to see how Ivy and Henry would react to this.
