She Faked a Pregnancy to Steal My Company—So I Took EverythingChapter 1

New Year's Day—both Ethan Mason's birthday and mine.

Nora Simmons gave Ethan a high-end Patek Philippe, worth over six million.

"Thank you, Ms. Simmons," Ethan gushed. "I really love this birthday gift."

Nora's voice turned gentle. "Don't overwork yourself. Take care of your health. At the end of the month, I'm promoting you to vice president."

Then she turned to me, her expression going flat, and tossed a cheap gift box my way.

Inside was a pregnancy test.

"I'm pregnant," she said coldly. "You're going to be a dad. This birthday gift should make you very satisfied, right?"

"At the end of the month, you'll resign and hand the VP position to Ethan. From now on, you stay home and learn to be a full-time stay-at-home dad."

I let out a soft sigh.

Nora had probably been too busy to remember. Half a year ago, I'd been diagnosed with azoospermia. There was no way I could have gotten her pregnant.

I stared at that pregnancy test, grinding my teeth to dust.
