Chapter 15

Daniel couldn't shake off the bitterness that consumed him. The more he dwelled on it, the more he held Grace responsible. If he hadn't helped her, he wouldn't have lost me.

Overwhelmed by growing resentment, Daniel quietly slipped away from his family's concerned gaze. He tracked down Grace, seized her wrist, and insisted on a divorce.

Grace was aghast. She refused, unwilling to see her hard-earned happiness dissolve. In a desperate bid to maintain her status as his wife, she took drastic action. She sedated Daniel and ensured she became pregnant.

For a fleeting moment, she thought she had secured her position as Mrs. Rollins. But her elation was short-lived. Upon discovering her actions, Daniel's anger erupted. Without hesitation, he hauled her to the hospital, compelling her to terminate the pregnancy.
