I heard Morrison cursing “bastard” repeatedly, but all I could see was Alex’s nonchnt expression.


    I clutched my stomach suddenly. The baby seemed to sense my anguish and started moving violently<b>, </b>but <b>I </b>only felt the bitter irony of it all.]


    It turned out, from the very beginning of trying to conceive, Alex lied to me, saying his sperm count was low and IVF would be more sessful.


    During those days, I took so many medications I felt nauseous constantly, and my belly was covered in purple needle marks.]


    The day the embryo sessfully imnted, he gently pressed against my stomach and said tenderly: “Good baby, daddy will make you and mommy the happiest people in the world.”


    Only now do I understand that statement was never meant for me.]]


    Tori’s voice drifted over again, dripping with obvious contempt: “Alex is so smart. Look how out of shape Penny’s gotten – ugh, I’d never want to turn into a frumpy housewife like her.“<b>[</b>]


    I couldn’t listen anymore and turned to leave. []


    Suddenly a huge wave hit, making the yacht rock violently. []


    Tori, who’d been standing at the edge caught up in her bragging, was thrown overboard with a scream.[]


    Alex barely hesitated before grabbing a life ring and diving into the ocean<b>, </b>swimming desperately toward her. <b>[ </b>


    I waspletely stunned – he couldn’t swim and had always said he was terrified of water. He really would risk his life for her.[]


    I couldn’t bear to watch that hero–saves–beauty scene, so I went straight to the hospital for an abortion. []


    As the anesthesia entered my system and consciousness faded, I had only one thought: Alex, you can go to hell.[]


    When I woke up, only Morrison was there with red–rimmed eyes. []


    I instinctively touched my belly – it was t, and I felt a strange sense of relief. I asked hoarsely: “Where’s Alex?“]


    Morrison looked away and handed me a video. []


    On screen, Tori was crying on the beach while giving Alex mouth–to–mouth resuscitation. []


    When Alex came to, she immediately hugged him tight and confessed loudly: “Alex, I can’t go against my heart anymore! I love you! You big idiot, I love you!“]


    Amid cheers from the crowd, they kissed passionately, both soaking wet. A second video showed Alex carrying Tori into a hotel.[


    Meanwhile, my phone received a message from an unknown number: “Babe, my phone fell in the water, borrowing a friend’s to text you. Still busy here, won’t be home tonight. Sweet dreams to you and baby ~“[]


    I stared at that message in silence for a long time. []


    <b>75.5</b><b>% </b>


    Then I slowly sat up and said to Morrison<b>: </b>“Help me put the aborted fetus in a cooler, and hire a marching band – the kind with loud, chatty cheerleaders.“]


    Morrison asked confused: “What are you nning<b>?</b><b>“</b>]


    I answered word by word: “I’m taking this special gift to the hotel to celebrate my husband finding TRUE LOVE.“[]


    After the marching band was in position, I started a livestream, acting distressed. []


    “Hey everyone, I have been really troubledtely. My husband says he and his girl–bro are just friends, but I’m not so sure.“]]


    Comments immediately mocked: [Jealous much?][]


    [Men and women can totally be just friends!]]]


    I shook my head: “No no no, I am not petty at all. Ever since I had that fight with my husband’s girl–bro, I figured it out: if they really have something going on, I won’t be wishy–washy about it. I’ll support them immediately!“]]


    Amid a mix of criticism and sympathy in thements, I used methods I found online to get a room key and marched toward their room with the marching band.


    Pushing open the door, the room was aplete mess with two half–dressed bodies tangled together.[]


    I covered my mouth and shouted dramatically. []


    “Wow! What good buddies you are!“[]
