He Married Me with Ulterior Motives—So I Rained Down Hell on HimChapter 1

Early in my pregnancy, on what was supposed to be the happiest day of my life, I walked in on my fiancé and my best friend tangled in bed—the bed meant for our wedding night.

Neither of them showed a shred of remorse. Instead, my fiancé humiliated me further by publicly calling off our engagement, turning me into the laughingstock of everyone we knew.

Just when I thought I had hit rock bottom, Ian Seymour, my childhood friend, suddenly dropped to one knee before me.

“I’ve loved you for a long time,” he said. “I’ll take responsibility. I’ll be the father of your child and I promise to protect you both for the rest of my life.”

In an effort to reassure me, Ian took me to register our marriage that very day and even arranged a grand wedding ceremony for me.

I thought I had found my salvation. But at eight months pregnant, I overheard a conversation between Ian and my ex-fiancé, Jaime Ashton, that shattered my illusions.

“You actually married Zara just to use the baby’s cord blood to save Trish? Aren’t you afraid she’ll find out and go berserk?” Jaime asked.
