Jack’s eyes swept over Olivia like daggers. Olivia laughed recklessly, “Figure it out soon. I have to go now. I’ll leave Ethan with you to take care of for a few days.”
Olivia picked up her bag and walked towards the door. Jack glanced at her retreating figure before quickly lowering his head.
Ethan stared blankly at Jack and asked, “Dad Mom said you love her the most. So why are you still with Amelia?”
Jack frowned, “What do kids know?”
Under the table, Jack gripped my hand tightly to reassure me.
My mother–in–law snorted coldly, “Your dad is just trying to make your mom jealous!”
I knew my mother–in–law was trying to upset me, but my heart wavered.
“I still have some work to finish,” Jack said, putting down his chopsticks and standing up to leave.
Ethan tightly grabbed Jack’s sleeve. “Dad, I hate you! Mom is always crying because of you!”
The usually gentle Jack suddenly shouted at Ethan, “Go study! If you don’t study until 11 PM, don’t even think about sleeping!”
Ethan burst into tears, but Jack remained unmoved.
After that day, Jack treated me better and better.
To put it dramatically, even if I asked for the stars in the sky, he would be willing to pluck them down for me.
When I was one and a half months pregnant, Jack hurriedly threw on a coat late one night to go out.
I handed him a thicker jacket. “It’s cold outside. Wear more. Are you going back to the

He suddenly gripped my shoulders seriously and said, “Olivia has a high fever. You know her family isn’t around, so I…”
“Go then,” I said.
Perhaps because I spoke with no expression, Jack anxiously tried to explain, fearing I would be angry: “I’ll be back soon. I don’t have feelings for her anymore. I’m just taking her to the hospital because she’s Ethan’s mother”
I pushed him out the door, carefully placing the car keys in his hand.
The next morning, Jack called me and asked me to bring Ethan to the hospital.
Without hesitation, I coaxed Ethan awake and took him to the hospital.

“Amelia, you haven’t eaten yet either, right? I’ll go get breakfast for you guys. Wait here
for a bit,” Jack said.
As soon as Jack left, Olivia pointed to the phone he had left behind on the bedside table.
“Jack and I have always been deeply in love. Open our chat history. You’ll see what you
want to see,” Olivia said, her words enticing.
I couldn’t help but pick up Jack’s phone and unlock it.
When I discovered that Jack had sent Olivia flowers every Valentine’s Day since we’d
been together, I felt strangely relieved.
Ethan pointed at me and laughed, “Mom, look! Amelia’s eyes are red, haha!”
The hospital was 20 kilometers from home. I didn’t take a taxi or bus – I walked back on
my own two feet.
The wind cleared my head as I walked.
I calmly drafted a divorce agreement, printed it out, and made an appointment for an abortion.

When Jack returned home, he was carrying hot food. “Amelia, why did you leave? You haven’t eaten yet, right? Sit down quickly.”

My mother–in–law walked over to me and deliberately glared at me. “Does my son need to feed you with his own hands?”
Jack’s face hardened. “Mom, can’t you be nicer to Amelia?”
I had no desire to watch Jack act anymore.
I handed him the divorce papers. “I’m bowing out of this relationship. The house and car can be mine. After all, you don’t love me, so just compensate me with money. I’ll get rid of the baby. There’s no point in having it.”
