Gone Was Her Spring Chapter 9
“The biological father of that illegitimate child saw the news and tracked her down. You’ll never guess who he was—a male escort. He wanted to use the kid’s identity to blackmail Susan Brown for a massive payout. He demanded a hundred million dollars. Susan refused to pay up, so the father grew resentful. He sneaked into Susan’s house in the middle of the night, knocked her out cold with a baseball bat, and snatched the baby.”Hearing this, I didn’t even know how to describe the mix of emotions inside me.“I guess you could say karma is a real thing. Susan was left with permanent brain damage that slowed her cognitive functions. She probably won’t ever be able to do business again. As for the culprit, while he was fleeing from the police chase, he accidentally drove his car straight off a cliff. And that baby…”Chloe didn’t finish her sentence. She simply sighed. … Susan handed her company over to a professional management team, leaving herself with nothing to do. In the past, s

“Susan, take this back. I stopped loving you a long time ago, and now, all I feel for you is disgust.”Susan’s body couldn’t stop trembling as she picked up the divorce papers from the floor. Staring down at her own signature on the paper, she let out a painful, bitter laugh. Only when karma bit back did she actually feel the pain. Losing the last of my patience, I contacted the cemetery security and told them to escort her away. However, Susan grabbed my hand and forced a bank card into my palm. Her face was deathly pale.“Myles, I agree to the divorce. I won’t bother you ever again. All my money is in this account. You earned this, and I’m voluntarily walking away with nothing.”Before the security guards pulled her away, Susan looked back and asked in a raspy voice, “Is this the last time we’ll ever see each other?”I nodded. Right in front of her eyes, I blocked every single one of her contacts and social media accounts.“Susan, remember your promise. Don’t come looking for

Susan clamped her hands around Owen’s neck with all her might, overcome with rage.“You animal!” she screamed.A year ago, she had mistakenly stumbled into the wrong hotel room after drinking too much, and when she woke up, she found Owen lying by her side. To bury the incident, she handed Owen a five-million-dollar check and took a morning-after pill. Yet, a month later, she discovered she was pregnant anyway. That was when Owen showed up at her doorstep, claiming he wanted to take responsibility. Under his persistent seduction, she eventually gave in.“I drugged you that night. You didn’t actually think all of that was just a coincidence, did you?” Owen forced the words out of his throat and laughed defiantly in her face.Pure hatred fueled Susan, and she tightened her grip on his neck. Just as Owen was on the verge of losing consciousness, Susan suddenly let go.“Don’t think you’re getting off that easily. I want you alive, suffering every day in prison.”As Owen was dragged

When I woke up again, the first thing I saw was Susan’s face, and I turned my head away in sheer disgust.Susan reached out and gently tucked in my blanket. “How are you feeling? Are you in pain?” Her voice was hoarse."Get out! I don’t want to see you!”I dodged Susan’s hand, feeling a deep, physical revulsion at her closeness.Susan’s eyes welled with tears. “Okay, Myles, please don’t get too emotional. I’ll leave. Just be careful with your stitches.”I slammed my fist into the bed. “Why did you save me? I wanted to die!”Grandma was dead, my reputation was ruined, and now, even the last memory of my child had been stripped away from me. I had lost all will to live a long time ago. In a flash, I grabbed the fruit knife from the bedside table and plunged it straight toward my chest. Susan’s expression shifted instantly, and she grabbed the bare blade. She didn’t make a sound, but fresh blood poured from her palm. Still, her grip on the knife remained perfectly steady. No mat

“He’s such a poor soul. Someone definitely set him up. All of the hospital’s TV screens are broadcasting a livestream of him being bullied. Ma’am? Are you still there?”Susan didn’t even know how she had managed to get to the hospital, let alone how she had found her way to the operating room doors. When she left the house, the baby was still crying, his wails giving her a splitting headache. Owen had begged her to stay, but she had pried his hands off her.Right now, her mind was entirely consumed by the sheer desolation on my face when I left the house and the stranger telling her that I might not pull through. Feeling a trickle down her skin, Susan touched her face, and her fingertips came away freezing cold. She hadn’t even realized that she had been crying the entire way to the hospital.After an hour, the doctor finally stepped out of the operating room, but only to issue a critical condition notice for the third time. Medical staff rushed in and out, yet the light above the

My phone crashed onto the floor, along with my tears and then my fist.“Susan, let me go! I need to save Grandma!”It wasn’t until I finally admitted my wrongs that Susan finally saw me.“Grandma is in critical condition. I beg you, please unfreeze my bank cards.”Susan’s expression was slightly solemn. However, standing right beside her, Owen suddenly let out a mocking sneer.“A perfectly healthy person wouldn’t fall critically ill so suddenly.”Susan snapped out of her brief hesitation and looked at me with disapproval. “Grandma has always been so good to you, Myles, yet you’re faking an emergency about her life just to escape your punishment? How did you become so twisted and deceitful? If you want the money, apologize to Owen. When he is satisfied, I’ll unfreeze your bank cards.”There was absolutely no time to explain. Grandma was at death’s door, waiting for me to save her life.Casting my pride aside, I lowered my head and begged Owen frantically, entirely at his mercy.

Dragging my weak, unsteady feet, I finally made it back home after dark. However, the moment I pushed the door open, I was met with the sight of Owen naked and Susan pleasuring him.Even when she heard the door open, she didn’t bother to look up. She just continued what she was doing with absolute

The call button was pressed, but Susan Brown didn’t stop speaking.“Myles, I have worked so hard all these years to build this business,” she said, her voice softening as she wiped the bright red blood from the back of my hand. “I need a child to inherit everything I’ve built. Our relationship has
Gone Was Her Spring Chapter 2
So, when Susan told Grandma to her face that she was taking me out to help me clear my head, I got into the car. However, my chest felt so tight I could barely breathe, so I rolled down the window halfway.“Susan, you are despicable.”She gently brushed aside the stray hairs blowing across my face
