Chapter 10
The screens lit up with video clips of Xyla and her lovers. I spent a lot to get a few photos, and those guys threw in the videos as bonuses. Each one had the exact date and time labeled,
I turned to Zeke, putting on a fake worried look.
“If you check the dates, that baby might not even be yours.”
Zeke’s face darkened with rage. He snapped, grabbing Xyla’s neck.
“How dare you cheat on me so many times! I don’t care whose baby it is–I don’t want it!

“Someone like you doesn’t deserve to carry my child. Take her to the hospital and terminate it!”
Xyla cried and tried to explain herself, but Zeke wasn’t having any of it.
Rebecca followed them to the hospital, still holding onto a little hope. She asked for a DNA test before anything was done.
But the results said it all–the baby didn’t belong to Zeke.
While the doctor stepped out to prep the tools, Xyla ran away and headed straight back to the Yeager’s residence.
The following day, my parents took her to the Ferguson’s residence, demanding answers.
“You can’t toss Xyla aside like this! The wedding was huge, and now you’re canceling everything? How’s she sup- posed to get married after this?”
Rebecca didn’t even let them in.
“Seriously? Your daughter has no shame! She has been fooling around with a bunch of guys and still had the nerve to marry Zeke while carrying someone else’s kid!”
Xyla stood there with her hands on her hips, acting like she did nothing wrong.
“So what? Zeke can’t have kids anyway! I’ll give your family a child for free. You’re the ones who used me. No other woman would even consider marrying Zeke except me!”
Zeke shot her a hateful glare.
“If you hadn’t seduced me, I’d never have touched you. I should have married Whitney. I was an idiot for falling for someone like you!
“You ruined my life, and now you’re showing up here like nothing happened?
“From now on, your whole family is done in Los Angeles. None of you will have a good ending!”

Chapter 10
As soon as he stopped talking, things got physical.
Zeke completely lost it and yanked Xyla’s hair, slamming her to the ground.
Everyone froze when they saw blood between her legs, then rushed Xyla to the hospital.

She lost the baby and suffered a severe head injury, leaving her mentally impaired. The Yeager family took Zeke to
court.
Both sides got stuck in a nasty legal fight, and neither one wanted to back down.
A month later, Shawn threw a big wedding for me. In front of everyone, he slipped a diamond ring onto my finger.
“Whitney, I’m so grateful you chose me. I’ll always be there for you and love you forever,” he said.
I smiled, nodded, and slid his ring onto his finger.
While we were hugging and kissing, I spotted Zeke in the crowd. He left without a word. The way he walked off looked lonely.
A week later, Zeke committed suicide.
Shawn brought me a letter.
“Whitney, Zeke left this for you. You should read it.”
I tossed it straight into the trash without a second thought.
“He didn’t matter to me.”
Soon after that, Desmond and Rebecca met up with Shawn. They handed over all their property to him, saying the Ferguson family’s assets shouldn’t end up with outsiders.
Half a year later, my parents suddenly reached out. They gave me all the Yeager family’s assets in America, saying they planned to take Xyla overseas for treatment.
“Whitney, we know we let you down. Xyla did a lot of things that hurt you… But we raised her. We can’t just abandon her.”
I didn’t turn them down and accepted all of it. That was the debt the Yeager family owed me.
Shawn watched me go through all the assets now in my name and smiled fondly.
“My money–hungry wife, I’ll work even harder to earn more and make you even richer!”
I laughed and kissed his cheek.
This life was the real ending that was meant for me.
