Chapter 7
The night was silent.
Angela was alone in the villa, but her circle of friends was very lively tonight.
Everyone she and Braeden knew was forwarding a video to one another.
In the video, the groom was shown putting a ring on the bride, whose face was obscured.
The text was something else altogether.
“Happy Seventh Wedding Anniversary to Mr. and Mrs. Hernandez!”
Angela’s red lips curled up into a sarcastic smile.
It was Braeden’s and her seventh wedding anniversary, and it was also the seventh anniversary between him and Valerie.
“Who are these people giving their blessings to?” She thought.
They all posted the scene of Braeden and Valerie on stage on their Instagram.
It was all over the Internet by then.
Everyone on the internet congratulated her.
“Mrs. Hernandez is so blessed!”
“That’s one hell of a display of public affection between Mr. and Mrs. Hernandez!”

“The wedding of the century is upon us again!”
At this time, Braeden was still lying in the hospital. He was in no shape to deal with these news reports.
Her cell phone rang.
She picked up the call.
“Angela, Braeden is in urgent need of blood. Come to the hospital and give him a blood transfusion!”
All that was seen in her tearing eyes was hate.
“I’m sorry, Sir Hernandez, I’m neither Braeden’s wife nor his girlfriend. He and I are strangers. I have no obligation or responsibility to save him.”
“You… knew!”
Angela sneered. “Thank you, Sir Hernandez, for hurting me seven years ago! It saved me from the hassle of getting a divorce from him seven years later! If he bleeds to death tonight, as someone who is neither his wife nor his girlfriend, I will not be attending his funeral.”
“Angela! I, Stanley Hernandez, will always hate you, just like how I did your grandfather!”
He hung up the phone.
Angela didn’t fall asleep all night.
She was sorting out everything that had to do with Braeden and her, all by herself.
She took a hammer and smashed the wedding photos one by one.

The entire floor was littered with broken glass.

Then there was everything that Braeden bought for her, clothes, jewelry, and bags. She packed them all up.

She had all of them taken away from the second–hand goods auction in the middle of the night.
There were the gifts she and Braeden gave each other since they were
young.
Angela looked at the rabbit doll. Braeden bought it for her when she was crying as a child to comfort her.
There were also a dozen SAT prep books, which Braeden had given her to help her with her homework. He even forced her to finish all of them.
Angela moved all of them to the yard and burned them one by one.
The phone rang again.
It was a text message from an unknown number. “I never knew he loved me so much! The kind of love that would have him sacrifice his life for
me.”
Angela only replied.
“Valerie, congratulations on recycling my trash!”
Three hours later.
Angela received the news that Braeden had woken up.
There were five bags of blood from her stored in the Hernandez family hospital, just in case Braeden needed them.

He has been in good health and hasn’t been injured over the past several years, so she would draw blood for him and have all that blood stored every six months. All of that was done just in case something unexpected happened to Braeden.
Last night, he was seriously injured.
She figured that not a drop was left in those five bags of blood.
She never expected that all the 27 years she shared with Braeden could be cleaned up in just five hours at most.
She was forcibly taken to the hospital by Braeden’s bodyguards.
They pushed open the door of the ward.
Angela immediately saw Braeden hugging Valerie.
Braeden’s eyes were full of anger.
“Angela! How dare you bribe the doctor to not only cause Valerie to lose her child, but also remove her uterus?”
Angela heard Braeden framing her for the death of Valerie’s child and her
uterus.
At this time, the doctor beside him made further accusations. “Mr.
Hernandez, it’s all Ms. Taylor’s doing. She said that if I don’t remove Mrs. Hernandez’s uterus, she will make sure that my days in Los Angeles with my family will be over.”
Braeden let go of Valerie and walked towards her.
For the first time, Braeden strangled Angela right away.
“Angela, how could you hurt others with money and power? How could

you hurt Valerie? When did you become so unrecognizable?”
Hearing this, Angela looked at Braeden with tears in her eyes. That heartbroken and furious look on his face was no longer for her.
The pain in her neck was real. Braeden hurt her for Valerie’s sake.

Angela curled her lips and said, “Braeden, it’s just a uterus. I could’ve bought her life if I’d wanted to.”
Braeden instantly became furious and slapped Angela hard in the face.
Angela’s frail body fell to the ground.
Braeden said coldly, “Get someone to haul Angela to the operating room.
I want her uterus removed.”
Two doctors hoisted her up.
Angela was surprised to hear this.
“Braeden, what did you say? What are you going to do to me?”
Braeden glanced at Angela with cold eyes.
“Angela, it’s bad to owe people anything, and you owed Valerie something. That means you need to pay her back. Once you’ve paid her back, I’ll still love you like I did before.”
Braeden gave a look, and two doctors took Angela away.
She tried to struggle, but a doctor inserted an anesthetic needle into her body.
In an instant, Angela’s vision began to blur.

She watched as Braeden held Valerie in his arms again.
“Valerie, don’t cry. My heart breaks when you cry.

Angela fell into a coma, and her mind was filled with scenes from her youth.

She, a twenty–year–old girl back then, was crying in Braeden’s arms. Braeden was chuckling in her ear, his deep voice full of affection. Braeden was chuckling in her ear, his
“Angela, I like it most when you cry. Whe
you cry, I feel so excited.”
“So, it turns out that if you truly care for a woman, your heart will ache when she eries,” she thought.
She felt that pain in her abdomen again.

Angela could vaguely hear the conversation between the doctor and Braeden.
“Mr. Hernandez, Ms. Taylor had undergone D&C before. Should we still
have her uterus removed?”
