- 8.
The pain made me fall asleep repeatedly. I
lost track of the day.
All I knew was that it was raining outside.
I looked around and saw Grant looking at me
grimly, holding my phone.
My voice was hoarse as I reached out to him,
“Give it back.”
He gritted his teeth, “Susan Miller, what are
you hiding from me?”
I tried to sit up to grab the phone, but the
I frowned, “Grant Caldwell, what’s gotten into
you?”
“What’s gotten into me?”
Grant chuckled coldly, showing me the caller
- ID. “You never intended to keep my child, did
you?”
His voice was icy. I looked at the caller ID and
lay back down.
It was the doctor I’d scheduled for the
abortion.
Seeing my mocking smile, Grant’s face
darkened.
After I finished laughing, I said calmly, “Yes. I
don’t even want you, so why keep the ‘blood
Grant hadn’t expected me to know about the
blood bank term.
He was stunned for a moment, then his lips.
curled into a self–satisfied smile.
“Right, in my eyes, your only use is as Star’s
blood bank. It’s best that you realize this!
Susan Miller, I warn you, even if you don’t
want my child, I’ll never let you go easily. I’ve
spent millions on you, you should repay me
with your life.”
Star had been discharged; only he and I were
in the room.
That’s why he could bully me without
hesitation.
My heart was numb with pain. Hearing his
<
words, I only felt pathetic.
Seeing that I didn’t respond, Grant became
even bolder.
“Susan Miller, do you think I’d keep you
around if you weren’t a rare blood type? Do
you think I’d marry you if my family didn’t
happen to like you? Susan Miller, you’re a
cheap woman who throws herself at men for
a little sweetness. I feel polluted by spending
a second with you.”
I looked at him quietly and sat up slowly.
I picked up the water cup on the bedside
table and threw it at him.
Grant couldn’t dodge and got soaked, staring
at me fiercely.

I wiped my hands indifferently.
“Grant Caldwell, do you think I’m still the
Susan Miller you can bully? Let me tell you,
even rabbits bite when they’re cornered! Your
grandmother doesn’t like Star because she
was… well, you know, in college. Believe it or
not, if you don’t let me live, Star won’t live
well either.”
The moment I finished speaking, Grant fell
silent.
But his angry eyes were fixed on me.
I rolled my eyes and lay back down.
Although Grant ran Caldwell Corp, Grandma
Caldwell was the real head of the family.
L
And Grandma Caldwell valued me greatly.
So, even though I’d always played the meek
role in front of Grant, he didn’t dare to risk it.
