“I don’t know, Jason,” Mark, his best friend, was saying. “Chloe deliberately killed your son out of jealousy. But you went and had your wife’s brother killed just to save her from prison?”
My chest tightened, my pulse roaring in my ears.
Jason’s voice sounded cold and cruel. “Amber will never know the truth. It was the only way to protect Chloe. Besides, it wasn’t just her fault. We were… carried away in the bedroom. I forgot that little bastard was still locked in the car.”
My knees buckled. My breath caught in my throat. Bedroom? With Chloe?
“She thinks Chloe is your sister,” Mark laughed. “Amber really is clueless. How can she not see that Chloe’s son, Julius looks exactly like you? He’s your son.”
Jason chuckled, almost proud. “Amber is madly in love with me. She’ll believe whatever I say. Soon, I’ll send her away for good and build the family I want with Chloe. Especially now that she’s pregnant again.”
The world shattered around me. How could this have happened? Ever since Chloe donated her kidney to save my husband’s life four years ago he adopted her as his little sister.
