Seraphina came to see me.

With a pregnancy test in hand.
She wasn’t the cool goddess that I had first
met. She was now a woman who had gone
through love affairs, she was sexy and
alluring.
That’s why Liam couldn’t let her go.
Who would give up such a beauty?
Seraphina told me that she was pregnant.
She said Liam was being so nice to me
because he wanted me to accept the child.
After all, I couldn’t have kids.
I looked up at her. “Liam told you I can’t have
kids?”

“What else?”
Seraphina smiled, full of sarcasm. “Everyone
in our circle knows that you can’t have kids,
Chloe.”
Yeah.
Three years into our marriage, when I was
three weeks pregnant, I found out that Liam
had cheated on me. I had a miscarriage after
the argument.
After that, I was never pregnant again.
Many people were saying that I had ruined my
body and could no longer have kids.
They tried to fix my problem, sending me

But…
I took a sip of my tea, and smiled calmly. “It’s
not that I can’t have kids, it’s that I don’t want to have his kids.”
“He’s not worthy of it. You want to have his kids, that’s your problem. Don’t blame it on
me.”
“Besides, he wants a divorce, I’m fine with that. It’s him who refuses.”
“You two are a perfect match, one is a jerk and the other is even more of a jerk.”
Seraphina’s face turned red. Her voice was
piercing “Chloel

“He loves me. You’re just an old hag-
I threw the tea in her face.
I stood up.
I looked down at her, and said calmly, “Since
you’re so confident in his love for you, go tell
him to sign the papers and stop bothering.
- me. Seraphina, I’ll wait for the good news.”
