I looked around, the other coworkers in the store were busy serving the customers.
I was the only one left idle.
I cursed and turned around to take out the ring from the cabinet for her.
Jeremiah caught a glimpse of my flat stomach and frowned.
“Zenith, what’s the meaning of you always wearing a corset? Don’t you know that this is not good for the child?”
I placed the ring on the table without even glancing at him.
“Sir, I don’t know you, do I? If you harass me again, don’t blame me for calling the police.”
He suddenly grabbed my wrist and wast about to lift my shirt.
I dodged and he became furious.

“Do you have any idea what you’re doing? You’re five months pregnant! Who asked you to come out to work!”
“Are you sick? Who said I’m pregnant?”
“Buy it or not? If not, leave.”
He ignored my words and even made a move on me in public, pulling me by the
collar.
“Zenith, even if we get divorced, I am still the father of the child in your belly and I have the right to take care of you.”
The attention of the rest of the people in the store was drawn to us.
But he still casually lifted my shirt.
As soon as he saw that my stomach was empty without the corset he had
mentioned, his expression was extremely ugly.
“Where’s the baby?”
“I’m asking you one last time, where’s the

baby!”
He yelled at me out of control and did not even hear Yvonne’s words of persuasion
beside him.
I calmly pried his hands apart, finding it quite amusing.
“I told you, the child was gone, he died on the day of the fire!”
“When you rescued Yvonne and took her to the hospital, your child already died! Died!”
In an instant, he was struck by lightning, his face turned pale and his figure froze in place.
After being stunned for a long time, he said in disbelief,
“Impossible, how could he die? You were fine that day and you set the fire yourself. How could you burn your own child to death?”
“You’re joking with me, aren’t you? Speak up! You’re joking with me.”

Yvonne hid the pride in her eyes and gently took his arm.
Then, she turned to look at me. “Zenith, I’m not saying anything bad about you, but the child is not yours alone. How could you abort him behind Jeremiah’s back?”
“You are too cruel, aren’t you? I’ve already said that the fire is not your fault, why can’t you let the child go?”
“You can’t do this even if you’re angry.
That’s a living life! You can’t mess around. as you wish!”
Jeremiah’s anger was ignited by these words.
The next second, he suddenly grabbed my
neck.

I was having trouble breathing and my was turning red, yet he still questioned me,
“You aborted the baby behind my back?”
I tried my best, but still could not break free from his hand.

Finally, my coworkers noticed something was wrong and rushed up to pull him away.
I held my stomach and coughed violently.
In my heart, however, there was only the pleasure of revenge.
“Abort the child? Jeremiah, remember, you killed the child with your own hands at the fire scene!”
“Didn’t you believe in the girl beside you? Then keep on believing, the dead child will also be watching you well from heaven, watching the father who killed him with his own hands and marrying another woman!”
Jeremiah froze and did not react for a long time.
Yvonne stepped forward hypocritically and said a few words to comfort me.
But her every word nailed me to the pillar of shame of sin.
She leaned close to my ear and whispered.
