Chapter 2

Edwin tried to say something, but the words caught in his throat, and he could not bring himself to speak.

The many executives and guests present were even more confused. They were not sure what was happening.

In the midst of the silence, Beatrice’s shrill voice rang out urgently.

“You again? How many times does my son have to reject you? Have you no shame?

“A lot of important figures from the tech industry are present today. Mess with them, and you’ll regret it.”

One of the chairmen said harshly, “Unbelievable! A stalker has the nerve to crash a wedding and commit assault? Aren’t you afraid of being arrested?”

The crowd instantly erupted into an uproar. Everyone started to denounce me and vow to make me pay.

Frowning, I tried to bypass Beatrice to confront Edwin.

However, Amy put her arm around Edwin and looked at me with tearful eyes before saying, “Sienna, Edwin has rejected you ninety-nine times. Don’t you think that’s enough? Why can’t you just leave us alone?”

As she spoke, tears actually began to stream down her face.

“If Edwin had any feelings for you at all, I’d step aside. I swear I would.”

Edwin’s expression darkened. He gently scolded her, “What nonsense are you talking about?”

Then, he turned to look at me with utter disgust and said, “How many more times do I have to tell you that there can never be anything between us?

“Amy’s the only one I’m ever going to marry. Get it through your head.”

With that, Edwin gestured for the security guards to escort me out.

Seeing them united against me like that made me think my heart would shatter.

In the next second, a childish voice piped up.

“Mommy, Daddy, who is this lady?”

My breath caught in my throat. My head started spinning

My entire body began to feel hot and prickly from anger.

They actually had a child together?

I remembered the day Edwin voluntarily went abroad for work.

When he told me that this trip might take a year, he looked happy.

He also asked me not to visit him, saying he wanted to be more independent.

Although I found it strange, I still agreed to give him an extra four million dollars just so he would not have to scrimp and save.

At this moment, I realized that he had probably used my money to raise his illegitimate child!

I fought hard to suppress my emotions.

After I composed myself, I asked, “Edwin, when did you have a kid, and why didn’t I know about it?”

Amy hugged the child nervously, while Edwin stood in front of me. He looked righteously indignant, as if he were performing his duty.

“Amy and I have been together for a while now. Is it really that surprising that we have a child?

I watched as they put on that ill-fated lovers act. I said deliberately, “Edwin, I literally just gave you nine billion dollars in research bonuses yesterday.

“Now, you’re telling me that you have been building a secret family behind my back. And you’re making me out to be some obsessed ex? Do you have no shame?”

When Amy heard this, she cried even harder.

She turned to the surrounding guests and choked out between sobs, “I was going to surprise everyone, but I didn’t expect Sienna to fly off the handle like that.

“Edwin and I had a child a while ago. I kept it quiet because I didn’t want to rub it in Sienna’s face.

“Edwin felt bad for her, so he let her keep a minor position at the company. But I never thought she’d react this way.”

Amy’s words instantly ignited the crowd’s fury.

“Making someone hide their own kid just to spare her fragile feelings? That’s pathetic!”

The whispers buzzed around me. I clutched my chest and inhaled deeply.

I fixed my gaze on Amy and said coldly, “Amy, do you want me to tell everyone here how you once knelt on the floor while thanking me?”

“You said your family was poor. You went from a broke student to an executive because of me.

“You swore you’d work yourself to the bone to repay me. And this is how you repay me now?”

The moment I said that, I felt a sharp pain shoot through my lower back.
