If only I hadn’t found that marriage certificate.
“Sammy, I’m fine, really! Let me disinfect your wound first!” Starla looked at Samuel with a wounded expression, then easily located the first-aid kit in my home and pulled out a bottle of antiseptic to treat Samuel’s injury.
“That antiseptic’s from two years ago...”
I suddenly remembered that it was expired and was about to step forward to warn Samuel. But before I could even touch Starla, she suddenly stepped back.
“Ah!”
Starla let out a shriek, stumbling backward and hitting her back against a chair. Then, clutching her stomach, she looked at me with a pained expression.
“Cass, I was just trying to clean Sammy’s wound. Why did you push me?”
With that, she looked up at Samuel with eyes full of feigned innocence and hurt.
“Sammy, my stomach hurts so much! I think I may have disturbed the baby,” Starla whimpered.
Samuel immediately scooped her up in his arms, his face twisted with worry and shot me a furious glare.
“Cassey, I never thought you could be this kind of person. If anything happens to Starla or the baby, I won’t forgive you.”
