Chapter 5

"Well, you..."

Damien wrapped his arms around me tightly. His embrace was still as warm as before, but I couldn't allow myself to indulge in it for even a moment longer.

I pushed him away, smiling softly.

"Damien, how can you still be so stupid? It's because of your stupidity that I was able to trick you out of all your money back then!"

"Let me tell you something, I never loved you. How could I ever give you my heart? If it wasn't for that accidental pregnancy, I would've run off with someone else long ago! After our son died, I naturally had no reason to stay anymore."

Damien stumbled backward, his teeth grinding audibly.

"Faye, you're not human!"

The next second, a group of masked men suddenly burst through the door and took control of the scene. One of them grabbed me, holding a knife to my throat.

Even though he wore a mask, I recognized those eyes instantly—I'd seen them countless times in my dreams.

This kidnapper was the same one who had abducted our son.
