Angela couldn’t listen any longer. She turned off her phone as silent tears streamed down her face.
So she had never brought peace to Braeden’s heart!
Angela slowly wiped away her tears.

She didn’t know who had sent the message to her phone.

Yes, she couldn’t give birth to his child, but she had another life growing inside her to think about.
Then Angela made a phone call to her senior, Ethan Rodriguez. “Angela?”
“Ethan, can your hospital add another surgery tomorrow morning?”
“What kind? I’ll contact the attending physician for you.”
“An abortion!”
Last night, after Braeden left, Angela only received one message from
him.
“Angela, I can’t come home tonight. I drank too much. I’ll go straight to the office tomorrow morning and come home in the evening.”
But the man who said he was going to work was also at the hospital that day when Angela came for her abortion.

Braeden had his arm around Valerie as they appeared on the first floor of the OB–GYN wing.
There were many people getting check–ups nearby. In the crowd, Angela saw Braeden protecting Valerie in a corner.
That protective manner looked exactly like how he used to protect her.
Valerie looked up at Braeden and smiled.
“Braeden, I’m fine. Everyone here is pregnant. Don’t be nervous.”
Braeden’s deep voice carried restraint. “I told you to go to a private hospital, but you insisted on coming to a public one. What’s good about this place?”
Valerie’s eyes dimmed. “Braeden, I’m just a servant’s daughter. I’m ordinary to begin with. I can’t compare to you or Ms. Taylor. Public hospitals cost less. I don’t want to waste your money.”
Braeden’s handsome profile showed nothing but affection.

“Angela only asks me for the most expensive and unique things. One of her bags could cover your salary for ten years. Angela isn’t as considerate as you.”
As he spoke, Braeden held Valerie and kissed her hair.
Meanwhile, Angela, wearing a trench coat with a hat and mask, stood frozen with her back to them.
Considerate? How ironic.
Before their wedding, Braeden had transferred all his shares in the Hernandez Group to her name.

And what he had said was.
“Angela, I, Braeden, will only buy you the most expensive and newest things. My princess deserves to be pampered.”
But Angela also heard Braeden say something else.
“Evergreen Manor is my parents‘ place. You’ll go there for your
confinement later. That green diamond I bought at the Manoir auction- I’ve already had it made into a ring. This is your replacement wedding ring.”
Angela’s curled lashes trembled, and tears instantly blurred her vision.
The green diamond, bought at Manoir auction.
Once upon a time, she was the one who told Braeden that legend.
She had heard that green diamonds represented uniqueness, and she had pestered Braeden for one.
“Does Ms. Taylor like the bag I picked out for her this time?”
“Of course she likes it. Valerie, you spent three hours carefully selecting it. Thank you for your hard work.”
Valerie’s hand caressed her abdomen, her eyes dimming as pain filled her voice. “Braeden, Ms. Taylor is going to be my child’s adoptive mother after all. I definitely need to please her. Don’t worry.”
Hearing this, Braeden felt even more heartache. “Valerie, thank you for being willing to give the child to Angela. Only by giving the child to Angela can it legitimately become the heir to the Hernandez fortune. Everything I have belongs to the child.”
Angela heard this ridiculous conversation.

So, he had gotten Valerie pregnant because she desperately wanted children, and that’s why he cheated?

Her phone rang.
Braeden was calling her.
She answered.
“Angela, are you awake? Still angry?
”
“I prepared 99 roses for you. The delivery will arrive at the villa soon, along with breakfast from Balthazar your favorite.
“You insist on having children, so I’ll have someone check the orphanages. If there’s a suitable baby, we can adopt. How about within a year? I’ll let you be a mommy.”
“Fine. I don’t want children anymore.
She didn’t want her child anymore. And she definitely wouldn’t want to raise the child he had with another woman!
Braeden’s tone finally softened. “Good girl, Angela. You’re my baby. Our seventh wedding anniversary is in three days. I have a surprise for you.”
Angela hung up the phone.
She also had a surprise for Braeden.
Angela lay down on the cold operating table.
