28-year-old Lucas Sterling circled me in his arms, coaxing in a low voice. "Scarlett, give me a child, okay?" 35-year-old Lucas Sterling, when I was hanging by a thread, was caught by paparazzi hooking up with his little secretary in the hospital's underground garage. Afterwards, Lucas was silent for a long time, lit a cigarette, his voice faint amidst the smoke. "Scarlett, don't go trouble her, she's young, doesn't know better." "I'll compensate you." I looked at the miscarriage report on my phone, numbly curved my lips. "No need, Lucas." "Let's... divorce." Lucas's hand holding the cigarette paused. "Scarlett, you're not a child anymore." "Consider the consequences before doing anything." Consequences? I've considered them very clearly. Chapter 1 I put the divorce papers on the table, didn't want to say anything more to Lucas, turned to leave. Lucas stubbed out the cigarette, reached out to pull me. "Scarlett, just a child." "If you want, we can have another one later." "Don't bring up divorce at every turn." My nose soured, blinked, trying not to let tears fall. "Lucas, he was eight months old, already formed!" Lucas sighed helplessly. "Unborn is just an embryo, can you not be so emotional?" I suppressed the surging emotions in my heart. "So did you think the same when you cheated with Summer? Lucas." He gripped my wrist tightly, lowering his eyebrows. "Which man doesn't do this?" "Cheating once, it counts as nothing, I promise you, Summer won't appear in front of you again." "Scarlett, we don't need to go to the step of divorce." Looking at Lucas's self-righteous face, I closed my eyes, bitterness lingering in my heart. Cheating once? Lucas thought he hid it well. Actually I knew long ago. That time Lucas lied to me about a business trip, actually accompanied Summer to Malaysia to see the Kota Kinabalu sunset she always longed for. The young girl was bright and reckless, directly sent photos to provoke. She said. "Miss Scarlett, the sunset is beautiful, just Mr. Sterling is a bit fierce." In that photo, Lucas kissed her wantonly under the warm sunset, the afterglow favored them. I was in so much pain I couldn't breathe. I called Lucas, the phone was picked up quickly. His voice was hoarse, with lust. "What's wrong, Scarlett." I tried to make my voice sound normal. "What are you doing?" Lucas suppressed a groan, followed by very fast, very small sticky water sounds. My hand holding the phone trembled non-stop. I begged Lucas in my heart to tell me Summer was lying. "Exercising." "Be good, I'm busy first, call you when done." The phone was hung up abruptly. My heart completely cold, Lucas used action to tell me, he really cheated with Summer. I started unable to breathe, hands twisted together, numb all over. I was rushed to the hospital. In the hospital, the doctor told me I was pregnant. I pinched the pregnancy test sheet and cried for a long time. Later Lucas came back, I didn't even have the courage to question him. Tears slid from the corner of my eyes. Lucas wiped my tears with his thumb. "Scarlett, just turn a blind eye, okay?" I was so angry my voice trembled. "Except divorce, there is no second possibility between us!" Lucas's chest heaved constantly, he took a few deep breaths, suppressing emotions. "I won't divorce you, Scarlett." "You better kill this heart too." "Calm down yourself." Lucas threw the divorce papers into the trash can, slammed the study door loudly. Chapter 2 Snow fell heavily on the road. Lucas's words lingered in my mind. He said "That's just an embryo." He said "Scarlett, don't you have any fault?" Waves of pain came from my lower abdomen, tears smashed on the steering wheel. Couldn't tell if sadness was more, or hate was more. Once, I was also the person Lucas protected on the tip of his heart. Lucas because of my sentence missing him. Would put down work at hand, cross half the country, knock on my door with my favorite flowers at dawn. In the second year with Lucas, I had a serious illness. Lucas, the young master who never believed in ghosts and gods, knelt 999 steps, knees knelt bloody, just to pray for my safety. Lucas to me, big to gold and silver jewelry, small to bit by bit companionship. Really spoiled me to the bone. The year I just married Lucas, wives in the circle bullied me for being young, scolded me behind my back as a market citizen from a small family, not presentable. I wasn't willing to attend any important occasions with Lucas anymore. Later, Lucas knew the reason. He retaliated against those who chewed tongues behind backs. Lucas who always hid emotions, specially held a press conference to support me. Since then, no one dared to disrespect me openly. People in the circle envied me marrying someone who loved me so much like Lucas. I was also very lucky. Until later, Summer appeared. She was his university junior. Just sophomore. At first, Lucas just mentioned her more and more times. I asked him jealously. Do you like Summer. Lucas would kiss me. "Darling, why so jealous?" "She's a little girl, temper is bad, how could I like her?" Perhaps at that time, Lucas's heart had gradually tilted towards Summer. Just he didn't know himself. We quarreled more and more because of Summer. Feelings were consumed completely in quarrels one after another. Lucas no longer hugged me gently, replaced by helplessness. "Scarlett, she's a child, what do you calculate with her?" "I'm very tired, can you be mature?" Later, it was Summer's blatant probing time and again. Person who loved me so much once, now indulged another person he loved to hurt me at will. Chapter 3 I returned to the villa, in the nursery prepared in advance, the small crib swayed with a gentle push. I looked for a long time, emotions burst. What's the difference between an eight-month-old child and born? Clearly the doctor said the due date is next month. Clearly I planned everything, I read parenting books one after another at home. I bought him a Silver Rattle, even hand-made a Quilt, even the crib was polished bit by bit by designers and workers I found... I looked forward to this child's arrival with full joy, I thought I would give him all my love, I wanted him to be happy forever. Clearly just a little bit. Just a little bit... Chapter 4 Summer came to find me because Lucas wanted to break up with her. Lucas said to her. "Summer, I will give you a sum of money, then you leave the city, don't come back." Summer unwilling. She cried asking Lucas if he ever loved her. Lucas kissed away her tears. "Summer, if I met you first, I would love you, just I already have Scarlett." "Summer, don't cry, I heartache." After that Lucas never saw her again. Summer was forced anxious, don't know how she found me. She came in pointing at my belly. "You think having a child can trap Mr. Sterling?!" "I tell you! You dream!" "The person Mr. Sterling loves is me! Is me!" I protected my belly backing up, wanted her to calm down. But Summer dazzled by anger couldn't calm down. I called the nanny, wanted nanny to send Summer away. Summer pushed nanny to the ground, pounced on me. "Scarlett! Why don't you go die?!" "You die, Mr. Sterling is mine alone!" I had no time to dodge, pushed to the ground by Summer, belly heavily hit the table corner. I sweated cold from pain. Summer like crazy, high heels kicked my belly fiercely one after another. She cursed asking me to die. I felt warm blood flowing to my thigh, panic occupied my heart, nanny climbed up pushed Summer away, called police for me, and called 911. Consciousness groggy, I dreamed a child waving at me. I couldn't catch him no matter what. When I woke up, doctor looked at me hesitating to speak. I opened mouth, holding last trace of hope. "Doctor, my child..." Doctor sighed. "Sorry, Miss Scarlett, child didn't keep." Expected thing. Just hearing with own ears, I still couldn't help emotional breakdown. Tears soaked pillow. Doctor advised me to restrain grief. Next day, TMZ exposed, Lucas and Summer hooking up in hospital underground garage. Chapter 5 I was like self-abuse, playing their video over and over again. Watching Lucas full of love, smilingly scooping her into arms. Watching Summer wearing silk nightdress, straddling him, few provocations, Lucas breath disordered. Urgent kiss, surging like waves. The Lucas I knew was restrained and gentle. Even if I once deliberately created romance wearing revealing dress, he would calmly evaluate, say this didn't suit me. Heart seemed hollowed out a blood hole, throat gushed blood, even breathing was pain. I remembered our first night, I was nervous and afraid, movements clumsy. Lucas was not impatient, he coaxed me gently, voice steady like comforting a child. No lust fire, no loss of control, I thought it was his cherishing. But now looking, it was he didn't want to invest passion, it was me to him, lacking fundamental attraction. Scenes of past, tearing whole body. I clearly realized, turns out Lucas never loved me. Doorbell rang non-stop. Just opened door. A slap already landed on my face. "Where is Lucas?!" Summer asked me angrily. Don't know would think she came to catch adultery. I sneered. "How do I know?" Summer extremely angry, pushed me away walked into villa. "Lucas!" She shouted while searching. I let her roll out. Summer disregarded, until she pushed open that nursery door. Summer stunned, then held belly laughing loud. "Scarlett, look if you like a clown?" "Jumping clown!" "Hahahaha." Summer laughed tremblingly, finished laughing, arms crossed leaning against wall looking at me. "Scarlett, I tell you, even I got rid of your child, Mr. Sterling simply doesn't blame me." "Do you want to know when you lay in operating room, how we had relations?" Summer approached me a step. "I called him, he blamed me at first." "He said if your child had accident, he would kill me." "I was so sad, how could he treat me like this?" "I cried, I cried crawling on his lap, I said, you kill me!" "I teased him while crying, you say is he too love me? Clearly you alive or dead uncertain, he still kissed me." "He said, Summer, you really deserve to die!" "I pulled him sinking, did he not even sign surgery paper for you?" Summer eyes carried triumph. My whole body blood flowed backward. "Get out, Summer." "What can you do if I don't get out? Scarlett." Summer twisted waist sat on sofa. "Right, forgot tell you, I'm pregnant." "Mr. Sterling also knew that day, he even asked if he hurt me, also let me not say, avoid you can't stand stimulation attack me." My ears rang for a moment. "What did you say?" "I'm pregnant, Scarlett, you say is this your fate? Your child gone, my child came." Summer poured herself a cup of tea. "I often think if God unfair, I liked Mr. Sterling at first sight, clearly I much prettier than you, you also just an orphan, even family don't want you, you can have Mr. Sterling such perfect husband." "Scarlett, I admit I jealous you." "But now good, your child dropped, I pregnant, everything back to normal track." Hate almost buried me. My child gone, Summer pregnant. No wonder... No wonder start to end Lucas protected Summer. No wonder our child killed by Summer, Lucas indifferent. Turns out, start to end, losing child only me one person. Damn! They all deserve die! Go to hell! I grabbed kitchen fruit knife want kill Summer. Knife about fall on Summer, caught by rushed over Lucas bare hand. Blood dripped down along knife edge. I tried pull out. Lucas held dead tight not let go. "Scarlett, are you crazy?!" Summer scared face pale, she fiercely pushed me to ground. "Mr. Sterling..." Lucas let go hand, knife fell ground. Summer looked at Lucas constantly bleeding hand, distressed dropping tears. She stepped my hand hard. I hurt speechless. "Scarlett, why don't you go die!" Lucas pulled her. "Enough, Summer." "She treated you like that..." Lucas frowned, bit impatient. "Stop noise, go hospital first." Lucas looked me with pity and disappointment. "Scarlett, what difference you now with madwoman." "You let me too disappointed." Threw this sentence, Lucas took Summer leave. I watched their distant back, looked again knife on ground. "Lucas." I softly called him. Lucas and Summer turned back same time. Next second, knife plunged into Summer belly. Summer softly fell down. Lucas reacted, subconsciously kicked me away. Lower back hit cabinet corner, hurt me vision black. Lucas ignored own hand wound. Tightly hugged Summer, trembling hand dialed 911. I laughed silently. Lucas saw me laugh, angry eye rims red. "Scarlett, if Summer and child in her belly have any matter, you spend rest life in jail!" I felt funny. When my eight months child killed by Summer, I wanted sue her. Lucas first step destroyed apartment surveillance, said to me. "Scarlett, ruin a girl bright life because an embryo, too cruel." "Moreover you even no evidence, how you sue her?" He gently hugged me, sighed. "Scarlett, no need, we will have children later." "I compensate you, okay?" Now for another woman, nervous to put ruthless words to me. Said want me sit jail bottom through. Tears slid down cheek. Lucas, I hate you.
