Chapter 3

“Do you really have a broken heart?”

Darrel straightened my shoulders at this time. I could see the tears on his face and the reddened ends of his eyes.

“How can I not be heartbroken? I love you and I also love our crystallization.”

Darrel looked at me intensely. “I'm more than anyone else looking forward to the baby coming to this world. If something happens like this, I'm the most painful thing, Giselle!”

I couldn’t believe the man in front of me was really too good at acting. No wonder, I couldn't see past his despicable disguise all these years.

When I think about when he first found out that I was pregnant, he was ecstatic, like he had suddenly gotten the ultimate treasure. Darrel was so happy that he couldn't sleep all night.

Later, I was even more meticulous during my pregnancy. Even though I went up the stairs, I was so energetic that I took care of myself. But who would have thought that at that time, he was already planning for the illegitimate child outside?

Darrel was already asleep, but his phone rang. He had a message.

[Darrel, thank you for the things you sent. Edmund likes it very much.]

I was curious at that moment. After my fingerprint was unlocked, my pupils suddenly shrank. I was stunned for a while and let the tears as big as beans fall.

All the clothes I prepared for the baby were changed to the size of the child by Darrel a month ago. Even the villa that I wanted to give to the baby has been inhabited by Karina and her son.

The background of his chat was the garden of the villa with the family of three sitting on the swing. They looked happy. It made my heart numb with pain.

Furthermore, it was a good day when Darrel asked the teacher to calculate a good date for Edmund. Fortunately, there were still three months left.

I closed my eyes tightly. My mouth then felt bitter.  These three months were enough for me to leave quietly.

“This dress was specially customized by the designer I asked, absolutely no one will see anything wrong with you.”

My lower body was slightly deformed and even with a cane, I could see the signs of paralysis. Seeing that my eyes were red, Darrel immediately came forward to ask.

I shook my head. “It's okay, Darrel. I just thought of when we first met, you were also so attentive.”

When we first met, I fell down from the mountain and cut my arm. He also carefully prepared a cool summer long-sleeved dress so that I could attend the coming-of-age ceremony.

It was also his meticulousness that impressed me, allowing me to travel thousands of miles to marry him in Luxembourg City. He smiled dotingly and squatted down to wipe my hand.

“I will treat you better in the future, Giselle. Please, don't think too much, okay? I won't dislike you.”

If I hadn't heard those cruel truths with my own ears, I wouldn't have believed that the gentleman in front of me would be the murderer of flesh and blood. I was silent for a while.

He was also an enemy who forced me into a desperate situation. I had to follow the disguise and deliberately pretended to be seriously paralyzed to make him relax his guard.

I knew him very well, even if Karina and her son entered the door, he would not be willing to let me go. I contacted my best friends. I then found a hospital to help me treat the basics.

I said to myself, “Giselle, remember that you must be discovered by Darrel, okay?”
