Chapter 6

Liam slept in late, holding Melody, still thinking about how to torment me today.

But when he pushed open the kitchen door, he found that my luggage and I had already vanished.

"Seraphina, come out right now!"

"Seraphina?"

"Seraphina?!"

He searched several times but couldn't find any trace of me. When he tried to call me, he discovered I had already blocked him.

He turned his head to look and saw a small glass bottle on the coffee table.

Inside the bottle was an embryo.

Beneath the bottle lay a stack of photos and a note.

The photos showed scenes of Melody engaging in promiscuous acts with different men.

The note read:

"The child in the bottle is yours. As you wished, it was never born."

"But do you really think the one in Melody's belly belongs to the Winters family?"

"I'm gone. Enjoy having Melody as your Mrs. Winters."

"Goodbye, and farewell forever."

Liam's hand holding the note began to tremble instantly, his breathing becoming unsteady.
