Chapter 3

"Welcome back to Exes Tell All!" The host's voice cut through the studio chatter as we settled into our positions for the third episode. The audience had grown since last time—more cameras, more crew members hovering at the edges of the set.

Grayson sat across from me, his posture relaxed and confident. He'd recovered quickly from last week's revelations, his publicist clearly working overtime to repair his image. The perfectly tailored suit he wore probably cost more than my monthly rent.

"So," the host began, her smile bright but cautious, "last time we learned about some... unexpected sacrifices in your relationship. Today, let's talk about your future plans—or what you thought they would be."

Grayson's eyes met mine briefly before he turned to the audience with that practiced charm. "We had a lot of dreams. Typical young couple stuff."

"What kind of stuff?" The host prompted.

"The usual. Career success." He shrugged. "Maybe a house someday."

"We were going to have a baby," I said quietly.

The studio fell silent.

Grayson's head snapped toward me, his expression shifting from confusion to something colder. "What?"

"You heard me." I kept my voice steady despite the pain radiating through my abdomen. "We were going to have a baby."

He laughed—a sharp, cruel sound that made the audience stir uncomfortably. "That's a new one."

"It's not new," I said. "It's just the truth you've never wanted to face."

Grayson rolled his eyes, turning to the audience with a conspiratorial smile. "See what I mean? This is exactly the kind of desperate lie I'm talking about."

The audience murmured uneasily.

"Lily," Grayson continued, his voice dripping with false sympathy, "there was never a baby. You're making this up because you want people to feel sorry for you."

I reached into my purse and pulled out a manila envelope. My hands trembled slightly as I extracted the medical records inside.

"These are from Cedars-Sinai," I said, holding up the papers. "Dated eight years ago."

The host leaned forward, her curiosity piqued despite herself.

"I was twelve weeks pregnant," I continued, my voice steady despite the memories clawing at my throat. "And I lost the baby."

Grayson's face had gone pale.

"The doctor's notes indicate the miscarriage was caused by severe physical exhaustion and stress." I looked directly at him. "Want to know why I was so exhausted?"

He didn't respond.

"I was working three night shifts," I said, pulling out another document. "At a diner in West Hollywood. Seven PM to seven AM, five nights a week."

The audience gasped.

"I needed the money," I continued, "because someone had to pay for your kidney treatments."

Grayson's mouth opened, but no sound came out.

"Here's my bank statement from that month." I handed the paper to the host, who took it with visibly shaking hands. "Three separate withdrawals of $2,000 each. All deposited into your account."

The host scanned the document, her professional composure slipping. "These withdrawals coincide exactly with your night shift schedule."

"They do," I agreed. "Because I was killing myself to save you."

Grayson finally found his voice. "My kidney condition—"

"Was completely fabricated," I cut him off. "There was never anything wrong with your kidneys."

The studio erupted in shocked murmurs.

"Lily," Grayson hissed, leaning forward. "Stop this right now."

"Why?" I challenged. "Afraid everyone will see what you really are?"

The cameras continued rolling as Grayson's carefully constructed facade began to crumble before the entire nation.
