He couldn't believe it-she was willing to hurt herself just to protect James’s baby.
“Don’t cany closer!” Lily shouted. She didn’t care that the sharp glass had already sliced through her palm-
she gripped it tighter anyway. In one sudden motion, she dragged it across her neck again, leaving a fresh, clean
cut. “This is my baby. I'm the one carrying it. I'm the only one who gets to decide what happens. John, you don’t
have any right to hurt my child! I know you're rich now, powerful, untouchable. You draggedback here
against my will, and even if | called the police, they'd probably just treat it like a messy breakup. You'd walk
away without a scratch. But what if someone ends up dead? James and | aren't officially divorced yet. I'm still his
wife. So if | die in this house-if you pushtoo far-he won't let it go. And neither will the law. You'll pay for it
with your life. Get away from me. Letwalk out of here. Because if you don’t, | swear to God, I'll slit my own
throat, and none of us will walk away from this.”
“Lily, put the glass down!” John’s voice cracked.
His eyes were wide with panic. He wanted to rush forward and grab it out of her hand, but he didn’t dare push
her. If he moved too fast, she might really do it. She might cut deep. She might die.
And that fear stopped him cold.
In that moment, he hated her-hated the way she kept fighting him, no matter what.
Hated Jamés. Hated the bastard child she was carrying.
For years, he’d been her entire world. He knew it. Nothing mattered more to her than him.
She'd risked her life more than once just to save his.
But the moment James entered the picture, everything changed.
She'd betrayed him. She'd hit him. And now she was threatening her life-for someone else’s child.
“I said back off!” Lily’s grip tightened even more. Blood streamed from her neck, vivid and horrifying against her
pale skin. “Take one more step, John, and | swear-I'll end this. I'll take myself out right in front of you!”
“You're really that into James?” John’s voice shook, caught between heartbreak and rage. His fingers clenched
around the pill bottle so hard it almost cracked. “Lily, how could you throwaway like this?”
“You're just my ex,” she snapped. “A pathetic creep who disgusts me. Who | love is none of your damn business.”

The two men John had stationed outside looked at each other, unsure whether to stop her.
“Don’t touch her!” John barked. Stay away from her!”
The men quickly stepped back, and Lily finally made it out of his room.
She didn’t even bother grabbing her bag. She bolted down the stairs like her life depended on it.

He noticed the glass shard had drifted slightly from her neck while she ran. That was his chance.
He started moving toward her, planning to grab her, pin her arms, and force her to take the pills before she got
any farther.
But just as he stepped forward, his phone rang sharply.
He glanced down. Elsa.
Annoyance flickered across his face.
Still, remembering her condition, he answered, his voice cold. “What is it, Elsa?”
But it wasn’t Elsa’s voice on the other end.
“Are you out of your damn mind,
John?” Simon's voice exploded
through the phone. “Lizzy’s seriously
sick. She's pregnant. o yeu leficher
alone at ihe hospital? € passed

and brought her back just in time.
She nearly died. You forced yourself
on her. You got her pregnant. The

God, you'll pay for it.” The content is

Elsa’s unconscious?
John didn’t want to see her. He didn’t care about her.
All he wanted was to get rid of the baby in Lily's belly, lock her away, and keep her beside him forever.
But no matter how hard he tried to
ignore it, he couldn't erase what he'd
done. Even if he dg pnestsal

couldn't deny what happened that
night. New Year's Eve. He hadn't just
hit her—he'd forced himself on her.

Now she was sick, barely holding on. How could he just ignore that?
His chest tightened. A wave of panic hit. Finally, jaw clenched, he grabbed his keys and drove off toward the
hospital Simon mentioned.
Lily couldn't believe her luck.
She'd barely made it out of John’s house when she ran straight into Mathilda in the sneighborhood. Great.
Just what | need.
Mathilda was just like

But Mathilda had been tailing her all day. There was no way she was letting Lily walk away now.
