After five years of dating, my anti-marriage boyfriend Nicholas Ward secretly applied for marriage with Raelynn Lopez behind my back. He rented an entire farm, filled it with flowers, and held a grand wedding ceremony with her. In the video, Nicholas’s gentle voice echoed: “Raelynn, Serenity Gray is just a tool to bear our child. Once the baby is born, she’ll pack her things and leave. You’re my only one.” Shocked, I called Nicholas with trembling hands, but he snapped impatiently: “I’m at work. Can you stop bothering me during working hours? Do you think everyone has as much free time as you do?” Then he hung up. I stared at the people in the video, and the next moment, I received an express delivery. The marriage certificate inside stabbed my heart. Once, I gave up everything, even willing to stay unmarried to be with Nicholas. But it was all a lie! I wiped away my tears and called my parents, Lincoln Gray and Olivia Gray. “Dad, Mom, I agree to the arranged marriage.” On the other end, my mother Olivia cautiously asked: “Serenity, have you finally come around? What about your boyfriend? Did you two have a fight?” Hearing Olivia’s words, tears instantly streamed down my face. “I don’t want him anymore. Don’t worry. I’ll be home in seven days.” Even after hanging up, Olivia still couldn’t believe it. Back then, to be with Nicholas, I not only refused the arranged marriage but even cut ties with Lincoln and Olivia. But in the end, I realized I had pushed away the people who loved me most for someone who didn’t love me at all. Looking at the marriage certificate in my hand, the names of Nicholas and Raelynn pierced my eyes deeply. When Nicholas and I first got together, he said he was against marriage and would never consider it. I didn’t want to lose him, so I agreed not to get married. But I never imagined his anti-marriage stance only applied to me. Just then, there was a noise outside the door. I hurriedly put the marriage certificate back in the delivery box and wiped away my tears. “Your package arrived.” Upon entering and hearing my words, Nicholas froze, a flash of guilt crossing his eyes. “It’s just a company document, probably delivered to the wrong address. You didn’t open it, did you?” Seeing his nervous expression, I shook my head. Nicholas immediately appeared calm, so I deliberately tested him: “My mom called me. We’ve been together for so long. When will you come home with me to meet them?” Hearing my words, Nicholas’s hand paused as he was taking off his coat. He frowned at me and loudly accused: “Serenity, are you even getting your parents to pressure me into marriage? I told you I’m against marriage. If you still want to be with me, you’d better drop these ideas.” Although I had anticipated his response, my heart still ached. I said softly: “I won’t bring this up again.” Nicholas put his arm around me reassuringly, his expression softening. “Serenity, I’ve been too busy with work lately and have neglected you. I’ll try to spend more time with you soon.” I forced a smile and nodded. When Nicholas went to shower, I disgustedly brushed off the spot he had touched. On the table, Nicholas’s tablet kept chiming with WhatsApp notifications. I clenched my fist and finally picked up the tablet. In WhatsApp, Nicholas was chatting in a group with his friends. [Nicholas, you prepared such a thoughtful surprise for Raelynn today. Won’t Serenity find out?] Nicholas replied: [Serenity loves me so much she’s even willing to stay unmarried for me. I have nothing to fear.] [If I wasn’t afraid of Raelynn suffering through pregnancy, I wouldn’t even consider using Serenity’s womb to carry a child for Raelynn. After all, someone of her status doesn’t deserve to serve me.] His friends were delighted, constantly sending disgusting messages. [Nicholas, you’re amazing, making Serenity love you so much.] [A poor woman like Serenity will definitely cling to Nicholas.] [Nicholas is so lucky. Serenity has a nice figure, probably great in bed.] Nicholas not only failed to stop them but joined in mocking my figure. These words felt like a knife stabbing into my heart. I never told Nicholas about my family background, but I never imagined it would become his reason to humiliate me. I went to Nicholas’s Instagram and saw photos and videos of him and Raelynn, including their marriage certificate, wedding, vacations, and kissing photos. I recognized all the people commenting below, yet Nicholas had blocked me so I couldn’t see any of his posts. I laughed bitterly. All these years, Nicholas never posted anything about me on Instagram. I thought he was just private. But I never imagined it was because I wasn’t worth it. I was merely a pawn in this scheme. I closed my eyes and put the tablet back. If that’s how it is, it’s time for me to leave.
Nicholas had just finished his shower when I was already lying in bed. He lay down beside me, pulling me into his arms, his hands wandering beneath my clothes. “Serenity, let’s have a baby?” I froze, memories of what happened earlier today flooding my mind. Instinctively, I asked, “But we’re not married. How would we raise a child?” Nicholas replied impatiently, his expression darkening, “Do we really need to get married? I’m powerful enough to provide for a child.” I found it laughable and closed my eyes in self-mockery. He made it sound good, but he only wanted me to have a child for Raelynn. I didn’t want to be a pawn in this couple’s schemes anymore. I pushed Nicholas’s hand away and said, “I don’t feel well. I want to sleep.” Immediately, Nicholas’s desire vanished. He was furious, turning his back to me without another word. Until he left the next morning, Nicholas hadn’t spoken to me. He was waiting for me to apologize first, like I always did before, but I wouldn’t apologize this time. I turned to tidy up when suddenly I began to retch violently. Feeling uneasy, I immediately bought a pregnancy test. Looking at the positive result, I sat helplessly on the toilet, feeling incredibly conflicted. I had once desperately wanted to have a child with Nicholas. Yet this child decided to come just when I’d chosen to leave. Just then, an urgent phone call came through. I answered, and Nicholas’s anxious voice came through. “Serenity, come to the hospital right away. I’ve arranged for someone to pick you up.” He hung up before I could respond. My thoughts remained in chaos until his bodyguard put me in the car. Only after arriving at the hospital did I realize what had happened. Raelynn had suffered severe bleeding while attempting egg retrieval for IVF. No hospital in the city had her blood type in stock, and since Raelynn and I shared the same blood type, Nicholas planned for me to donate blood to her. Nicholas looked at me pleadingly. “Serenity, Raelynn grew up with me. I see her as my sister. You’ve always been so kind. Please help her.” I forcefully pulled my hand away, my eyes reddening. “Why should I? I won’t do it.” He deceived me, schemed for my child, and now wanted me to give blood to Raelynn. Why should I do that? Nicholas coldly said, “Serenity, when did you become so heartless? Today, you must give her blood.” He then pulled me toward the operating room. Unable to bear it anymore, I finally shouted, “Nicholas, I’m pregnant. I can’t donate blood.” Hearing my words, Nicholas froze. He stood there, staring at me in shock. But just then, a nurse ran out anxiously. “Mr. Ward, Ms. Lopez’s condition is critical. We can’t wait any longer.” As if awakened from a trance, Nicholas gave me a complicated look, then coldly said, “Serenity, we can have children in the future.” I instantly understood his meaning and asked in disbelief, “You’re giving up our child too?” Nicholas didn’t look at me again, instead ordering his bodyguard to drag me in to donate blood. I was pulled into the transfusion room while struggling. I felt my blood being drained, my consciousness gradually fading. Finally, I lost consciousness. When I woke up again, no one was around me, but I could hear voices from outside. A woman said, “That’s the CEO of the Ward Group, right? I heard he’s been waiting outside the room without eating or drinking, waiting for Ms. Lopez to wake up.” Another woman added, “My goodness! He’s so devoted. I wish I could meet a man like that.” Hearing these words, I felt completely calm. Just then, a doctor entered. With trembling lips, I struggled to ask, “My baby…” The doctor looked at me regretfully and said, “We did everything we could, but we couldn’t save him.”
My heart felt like it was being squeezed by a giant hand, the pain making it impossible to breathe. This time, I failed to protect him. After resting for a few days, I dragged my weakened body out of the hospital. When I got home, I found the house empty. Clearly, Nicholas hadn’t returned yet. The pregnancy test was still on the bathroom counter. Instantly, I felt a painful sting in my nose. I wanted to cry but couldn’t. Just then, my phone rang. I answered—it was Nicholas. “Serenity, are you home?” he asked. “Yes,” I replied. Nicholas sighed with relief. “Raelynn wants to thank you, so she’s hosting a special dinner for you tonight. I’ll come pick you up later.” Before I could respond, he hung up. Barely twenty minutes later, Nicholas returned. Seeing that I hadn’t changed clothes and still had traces of tears on my face, he looked guilty. “Serenity, the situation was too urgent for me to think clearly. Besides, it was my sister’s life at stake. You understand, right? We can have another child in the future. Don’t overthink it—go get changed.” He then pushed me toward the bedroom. I felt irritated. “I’m not going.” Nicholas immediately furrowed his brow and said with displeasure, “Raelynn is extremely grateful to you, which is why she arranged this dinner right after leaving the hospital. Don’t be difficult.” Eventually, Nicholas dragged me to a VIP room at the Royal Clubhouse. As soon as I entered, I saw Nicholas’s friends sitting on the couches. When they saw me, their sticky gazes landed on me. I remembered the chat messages I’d seen days ago, where they had shamelessly discussed my body with Nicholas. Instinctively, I reached for Nicholas’s sleeve, but he walked straight over and sat down. Raelynn approached with two glasses of wine, smiling. “Serenity, thank you for saving me. I’ll drink this first.” She downed her glass in one go. Nicholas’s concerned yet resigned voice followed. “Raelynn, you just had surgery—don’t drink too much. Just let Serenity drink.” Raelynn playfully stuck out her tongue, then handed me the other glass. “Serenity, why don’t you drink this and forget about what happened that day?” Everyone’s eyes turned to me. I looked at Nicholas, realizing he had no intention of helping me, only gazing adoringly at Raelynn. I laughed bitterly to myself. He remembered that Raelynn had surgery but forgot I had just miscarried. He was right to act this way. After all, Raelynn was his legal wife. I took the glass, finished the wine, then calmly asked, “I’ve drunk it. Can I leave now?” I put down the glass, ready to go. But then Raelynn’s voice suddenly rang out. “Nicholas, I accidentally left my phone in the car. Could you get it for me first, then take Serenity home?” Nicholas hesitated. But Raelynn intimately shook his hand and continued, “Please?” “Alright,” he said, standing up and walking out. Not wanting to stay, I prepared to follow him. But suddenly I felt dizzy, and my body began to weaken. I instantly realized the wine had been drugged. I tried to leave but fell heavily to the floor. Those men laughed playfully as they dragged me by my legs. One man laughed, “Trying to leave? Nicholas has left you for us to play with.” My body trembled violently, filled with shock. Their hands began to wander over my body. Another man laughed, “I’ve heard Nicholas say you’re amazing in bed. Today, let us try too.” Seeing Raelynn’s smug smile nearby, my heart filled with despair and fear. “Please, don’t…” But before I could finish, my clothes were torn apart. I gave up, no longer having the strength to struggle. Just as I was about to lose consciousness, Nicholas pushed open the door. I struggled to say, “Save…” But in the next second, amid the laughter, Nicholas coldly said, “You can only play with her, don’t actually do anything.” When I woke up again, I was in the hospital. Nicholas sat beside my bed, gently holding my hand. “Serenity, I forgot you couldn’t drink after your surgery. Thankfully, you’re okay.” Before I could say anything, he softly added, “Raelynn and my friends were just joking with you. I’ve already punished them. Just forget about yesterday.” After hearing his words, I stared at him in shock. “Are you kidding? That’s rape! I won’t let them get away with drugging me. I’m calling the police!” Nicholas froze, then stood up. “The police? Nothing happened to you. Why would you call the police? Enough. Just get some rest. This is all over now.” I didn’t respond, just stared numbly out the window. Nicholas was about to say something when he was interrupted by a phone ringing. He stepped outside the room to answer it, then left without returning. At that moment, I felt strangely calm inside. As I was preparing to get out of bed and leave, several nurses gave me strange looks. Then, one woman said, “So she’s the mistress who’s destroying Mr. and Mrs. Ward’s marriage. She’s shameless.” Another woman scoffed, “Did you see how she looked in that video? She’s obviously done this before. She’s probably in the hospital because she took things too far and got hurt.” My body stiffened, and I couldn’t help asking, “What photos are you talking about?” One of the women said, “Your videos and photos are all over the internet. You’re a promiscuous homewrecker. Get out of here!” I frantically searched for my phone, only to realize that photos of me being pinned down by Nicholas’s friend last night had gone viral. I had been fighting back, but from the deliberately chosen camera angle, I looked like I was enjoying it and participating willingly. Someone had posted my information online, labeling me as a homewrecker. My phone number had been exposed. Countless strangers were sending me abusive messages. [You’re a shameless mistress! You have no morals.] [Don’t you have parents? How dare you destroy someone else’s relationship as the other woman?] [I hope you get hit by a car when you go outside. People like you deserve karma.] Even worse, many people sent me degrading messages. [Nice body. How much for one night?] [I’ll pay you well if you spend the night with me.] I shut off my phone with trembling hands as grief washed over me. Then I fled the hospital. On my way home, I felt like anyone who made eye contact with me was looking at me with malicious intent. After rushing home with my face covered, I took out my backup phone and called Lincoln and Olivia. The moment the call connected, Olivia’s concerned voice came through. “Serenity, I’ve seen what’s happening online. Don’t worry. I’ll pick you up at the airport right away.” Hearing her caring words, tears immediately fell from my eyes. Even Lincoln, who was usually serious, had a slight tremor in his voice. “Don’t cry. We’ll always have your back. You don’t need to worry.” Soon, I was heading to the airport with my suitcase, wearing a mask. Before boarding, I sent Nicholas a breakup text, then decisively threw my phone into a trash can. I would never return to this place. Meanwhile, Nicholas was lying on the bed in his villa wrapped in a towel, while Raelynn was taking a shower in the bathroom. Suddenly, a jarring ringtone broke the silence. Nicholas pressed the answer button, and an anxious voice immediately came through. “Mr. Ward, somehow the video from the private room yesterday has leaked online. Your relationship with Raelynn has been exposed.”
