Upon hearing this, I gaped at him, astonished.

My breathing became rapid and shallow.

"That man's offspring?"

Chris was the first man I had been intimate with.

Sharon returned on our wedding day.

He came back to the house intoxicated, pleading with me not to go, and we spent the night together.

The following morning, he awoke and recalled our marriage, realizing that his usual residence had become our shared home.

He looked at the marks on my skin with revulsion.

"You were aware of my feelings for Sharon, yet you seduced me."

Later, I gave birth to Aaron.

He harbored no affection for me, believing I used the baby to trap him.

Consequently, he disliked Aaron as well.

It turned out that wasn't the reason.

He disliked Aaron because he doubted the child was his.

Ironically, I burst into laughter.

I questioned Chris, "So tell me, who do you think is the father?"

Enraged, he slammed the dish onto the table. "You know very well. I don't want to argue about this."
