Chapter 11
Drew panicked completely.
His fingers turned white as he gripped the phone, his face instantly draining of color.
Vanessa had changed her identity?
Was she really leaving him for good?
No, impossible!
They loved each other so much–how could Vanessa bear to leave him?
Drew threw his phone, his eyes bloodshot. He refused to believe Vanessa would truly leave.
He got up to leave the mansion, only to run into Talia at the entrance. She was holding a box, her eyes red–rimmed.
‘Drew, Vanessa sent this. What does it mean?” Talia opened the box with trembling hands to reveal
a blood–covered toy baby inside.
The box also contained a recording that played Vanessa’s malicious voice repeating:
‘Talia, you seduced Drew. You and your baby deserve to die. I won’t stop until I’ve taken my revenge, and this time Drew won’t catch my people.”
Drew’s expression changed dramatically. Hearing the familiar voice, the regret in his eyes gradually lisappeared, replaced by growing coldness.
So Vanessa had changed her identity to hide while planning revenge against Talia?
Compared to the thought of Vanessa leaving him forever, he preferred to believe this alternative.
‘Drew, how did she find out? She hates me now. What should I do? The baby… I can’t keep it anymore.” Talia trembled as she spoke, turning to leave for the hospital to get an abortion.

Drew grabbed her, pulling her into his arms. “I’m here. No one will hurt you.”
“Vanessa’s gotten bold, daring to go against me.” His face darkened, the anxiety and fear in his heart
completely masked by anger.
He frowned, glancing at the ruined living room before leaving with Talia, abandoning the
blood–stained doll box on the floor.
In a corner he couldn’t see, Talia’s face twisted with malice as she flashed a satisfied smile.
Fortunately, she had acted quickly, creating the illusion that Vanessa was hiding to plot revenge against her, making Drew disappointed in Vanessa again and refocusing his attention on her.
Vanessa was gone–she couldn’t be allowed to return!
Drew took Talia back to the hospital and stayed by her side day and night. She was restless,
frequently waking from nightmares.
Talia’s mental state deteriorated, and she couldn’t eat properly, affecting the baby’s development.
ew concerned–as long as Vanessa remained unfound, Talia would continue to worry.
decided to host a gala, using the public announcement of his relationship with Talia as bait to
force Vanessa to appear so he could explain everything.
As long as she stopped targeting Talia, he would love her as before, overlooking her recent actions.
On the day of the gala, Drew appeared holding the elegantly dressed Talia. The crowd knowingly
applauded, offering their congratulations.
Talia, thrilled at the prospect of officially becoming Mrs. Blackstone, smiled continuously, graciously accepting everyone’s well–wishes.
Yet Drew’s face showed no joy. He ignored the congratulations, distractedly watching the entrance.
He was waiting for Vanessa to appear, certain she would come to confront him.
As time passed, just as the emcee invited Drew and Talia on stage to speak, the doors to the hall opened.
