(Grace's pov)

Slowly…I opened my eyes, and my vision appeared blurry. But despite this, I can make out the three people before me, Two of the three are dressed in blue clothing, while the third of them is in a suit, he looks bigger and taller than the former.

"What is your name" One of them asks but I neither have the will nor the strength to reply the question.

"What is the last thing you remember?" The same voice asks.

The last thing I remember …

Gradually, fragments from my past start to reform in my mind and I can see them, more vividly than the world before me.

The memories took me back to a week before my Wedding when I went to my Fiancee's place. 

*SIX MONTHS AGO* 

We had earlier discussed I would come at the weekend because of my plan to travel with my mom, but since the arrangements have been canceled, I chose to be silent about it, and instead, I decided to surprise him with a visit and deliver to him the news of my pregnancy. 

 His door was open so I didn't have to use my spare key, I entered to see his clothes messed all around his place. I started picking them up, one after the other when I began hearing unusual sounds from his other room. I felt all energy surge out of my body. Fear washed over me, and my legs became so weak they felt like jelly. But still, I summoned up the courage to carry my feet, and slowly, I started walking towards his bedroom, with each step, the moans became louder. My heart started pounding fast and I felt they would explode out of my chest. I felt the urge to run out of his house, but my feet didn't stop, they carried on till I got to his bedroom door, It was opened slightly, and when I pushed it further, what I saw before me sent out chills to the veins in my body, and I passed out from the shock of seeing my fiancee on top of another woman.

(Mary Land Hospital)

When I woke up in the hospital, I expected him to be there beside me but my expectations were met with disappointment. The faces of my family members surrounded me with concern.

"George dropped you and left before we could ask him why you had passed out. What the hell happened, Grace??" 

Ivy, my younger sister demanded, and the whole of them stared at me, desperate for answers but I was unable to speak, what would I say, how would I begin explaining to them?

"I... I saw..."

My words choked on my throat and hot tears rolled down my cheeks instead. I turned my backside to them and rolled the sheets over my head, not wanting to speak any further.

 How the hell would I start explaining to my family that I saw my fiancee in bed with another woman? and instead of him to stay behind with me, he had probably gone back to meet her

 How..?

(George's office at "The Logan's Vinrey")

"Well, I was expecting to tell you sooner, but it's good that you've seen it yourself" 

George said immediately he sat and made himself comfortable on the big sofa in his office.

"Thank you, Lucile," He said to his secretary, who went out after dropping two tea cups on the furniture sitting between us.

"So you've been using me?" The question came off more like a whisper and it sounded so dumb to my ears, and I wish the ground would swallow me up at the moment.

"Well, I needed a baby. That was the condition given to me if I would marry Mary Logan. You know how important she is, how wealthy and powerful her family is, Mary is unable to birth kids, so we had no other choice. Now hear me, Grace... 

He leaned closer

"... you will give me that child. Mary is the only trophy card I have right now. This is a chance for both of us, you give us your baby, I and will see to it that it has the best life. Just imagine, your baby, A Logan's Son. This is a chance for the baby, to have a life you and your family would never be able to afford. And I promise, you will be well taken care of, I will give you enough money to make sure you live the rest of your live swimming in wealth as long as you keep shu.."

I didn't allow him to finish as I screamed and scattered the whole stuff on the table, I threw away the flower pot I gifted him and watched it break into pieces the moment it collided with the floor, then I reached out for the collar of his shirt. 

"You bastard... how dare you!!! How can you do this to me??" 

The fact that I had secretly wished that he would come up with an excuse, just anything that would make me believe it was an unintended mistake, even if it wasn't true, made me hate and loathe myself. I can't believe I still came here with that thought in my head even after he had severally refused my call or returned it after that day.

I felt so dirty, used, and stupid. 

And to think that I and my unborn baby are just some pawns in this cruel game of his hurts me so bad that I started crying uncontrollably before him.

"How dare you use money to buy off my child. How dare you, George! How can you do this to me? All the promises, all my love for you, my sacrifices.. how can you, you animal!?"

Two Male Secretary officers came in with Lucile and dragged me off him, and in between my tears, I tried to fight them off, but they were too strong for me.

"Take her out!" George ordered them as he adjusted the tie around his neck

Both of the Men took each side of my arm and started dragging me away, but that didn't stop me from giving him the last piece of my mind

"YOU SHALL ROT IN HELL FOR THIS,I PROMISE YOU. GEOOORGE..."
