"But it wasn't like that at all! You only married me for the sake of the Reyes and Graciani families. Yet she’s still jealous that I’m carrying your child… She even said she wanted me to suffer like she did—to know what it’s like to never have children!"
Before I could even explain, Antonio, Tomas and my parents all looked furious.
"Samantha, if anything happens to Camila’s baby, you’ll regret it!" Antonio didn’t hesitate—he scooped Camila into his arms and rushed out.
Tomas slammed his fist against the door, his eyes burning red. "Samantha, I never thought you could be this cruel. Everything that happened to you had nothing to do with Camila—why take it out on her?"
Even my parents scolded me for being reckless and immature.
Nothing to do with her? Tomas actually had the nerve to say that?
Rage surged through me. I wanted to scream at him, to tell him everything—But before I could, my vision blurred and darkness swallowed me whole.

When I woke up, I was in a hospital bed. Tomas was gripping my hand tightly.
"Samita, why didn’t you tell me you were pregnant?"
A cold glint flickered in my eyes.
So he found out after all.
Well then… I might as well make this surprise even bigger.
