"You already know, Rina," Victor said sharply, his voice cold and dismissive. "I won't love you, no matter what you do or how many times you beg. You knew from the start that Helena was the one I loved!"

Victor went on, his voice harsh, "The only reason I married you is because it was my grandmother's wish. I'll provide you with money, but please don’t bother me or Helena anymore."

Tears streamed down my face as I struggled with the pain and despair. My dreams of rekindling our love were shattered before my eyes.

I had planned to surprise him with the news of my pregnancy, but now it seemed he didn't care. My hopes for our unborn child felt pointless in a world where its father had already rejected it.

As Victor’s words lingered in the room, I was left in a painful silence, realizing that the love I had treasured was nothing but a cruel illusion. My marriage had led me into a desert of broken dreams.

Pregnant With His Child

"Mom, are we going to be separated from you again?" Venice asked, causing Rina to pause.

They were currently inside the car, heading back to their hiding place once again.

Rina gazed around at every passing sight, trying to memorize every turn they took in case someone could provide another clue about their location.

Throughout the time she had spent with the children, she was busy observing her surroundings and had pieced together an idea of where they were. They were on an island in the Asian region, but not in the Philippines anymore.

Rina then looked at Venice and gently stroked her head.

She could see the sadness in her eyes, as if Venice dreaded being separated from her.

Rina shared the same sentiment. The thought of parting ways with the children saddened her deeply.
