第1章

After seven years of love, I caught George cheating. He knelt in front of me and said it was an accident. I softened my heart and forgave him. In the next two years, he cheated 33 times. When I was bleeding heavily during labor, he and a female star stayed together in the hotel all night, which made the headlines. The day after giving birth, the female star didn’t want to go into the water to film, so he forced me to be a stuntman to complete the filming. I was furious. “I just gave birth to a child. I am weak. I can’t touch the water. What if something happens…” Before I finished speaking, he kicked me into the lake. “It’s just giving birth to a child, is it that serious?” I was drowning and asking for help. He watched coldly and kissed the female star on the shore. After going through the life-and-death crisis, I thought it through. I turned around and left with the 13 million dollars for childbirth expenses given to me by my mother-in-law. George forgot that he said that he could only get a marriage certificate with me after giving birth to a son. Now, I didn’t care. —— “Mom, I’m leaving.” Hearing this, my mother-in-law was stunned and tried to keep me. “Rosa, stop talking nonsense. I know he was wrong. I will teach him a lesson for you. Give him another chance…” My mother-in-law met my dull eyes and the rest of the words got stuck in her throat. A loud noise suddenly sounded outside the ward. The nurse who came in to change the dressing said with envy, “The big star Sienna was personally carried to the hospital by George, the president of Mullins Group. He also invited the best doctor in the hospital for her. It turned out that it was just a small scratch. If she came too late, it would have healed. Miss Russell is really lucky to have a man who cares so much about her…” After hearing this, my mother-in-law was so angry that her face twisted slightly and her eyes were full of anger. Half an hour ago, I was rescued from the lake by a kind-hearted person. When I was sent to the hospital, the doctor issued a critical illness notice. The hospital called my emergency contact George countless times. But the voice that came from the other end of the phone was always a cold, mechanical female voice. Finally, it was my mother-in-law who came and signed the critical illness notice. My heart felt like a big stone was pressing down on me and I couldn’t breathe. It turned out that in the half hour when my life depended on life and death, George stayed by Sienna’s side. My mother-in-law could no longer suppress her anger and took out her mobile phone to call George. Several calls were hung up in a row. When the last call was connected, George’s voice was full of impatience. “Mom, I’m in a meeting now. Can you stop bothering me because of Rosa’s matter?” Before my mother-in-law spoke, Sienna’s voice came from the other end of the phone. “George, is it Rosa who called? You don’t have to stay with me all the time. Rosa is more important…” “Don’t worry about her. Nothing will happen to her. You are more important than her. Mom, I have to go to a meeting. Don’t call me again. I don’t want to hear any news about Rosa.” As soon as the voice fell, the phone was hung up immediately. I pursed my lips and my heart was in a dense pain. My mother-in-law was even more angry, gritting her teeth. “Rosa, don’t worry. I will definitely make the decision for you today and let him give you an explanation.” My mother-in-law found out Sienna’s ward number in a swift and decisive manner and rushed over aggressively. I couldn’t stop her, so I had to follow her. When I arrived, I heard ambiguous voices coming from the ward and anyone could guess what was happening inside.

My mother-in-law’s face suddenly sank and she turned to look at me subconsciously. But I looked calm. Over the years, I had been used to similar things. When I opened the door, as expected, I saw George and Sienna entangled. My mother-in-law’s face turned pale and she yelled, “Why did I give birth to such a heartless and rebellious son like you? I will beat you to death today!” “Mom, what are you doing? Just for Rosa, why are you like this?” George’s eyes fell on me and suddenly became colder. “Rosa, you instigated my mother again, right? It’s just giving birth to a child. Do you think you have the confidence in the Mullins Family? There are many women who want to have children with me. I won’t lack women and I won’t lack children!” Hearing this, my face turned pale. George and I were childhood sweethearts. My mother died early and after my father brought a stepmother into the house, I became a child without a mother or a father and was bullied. It was George who protected me and became my safe haven. For him, I gave up my dream and stayed at home as a good wife and mother as soon as I graduated from college. I gave up all my social life and every minute of my life revolved around him. But in the seventh year of our love, he cheated. Thinking of those unbearable bits and pieces, I was shaking all over. Seeing that I didn’t respond at all, George was furious and picked up a glass and threw it at me... A dull pain rose in my forehead and blood gushed down. The ward fell into silence in an instant. My body was weak and I couldn’t support it anymore and fainted. When I woke up again, George was guarding my bed. Seeing that I woke up, he breathed a sigh of relief and said impatiently, “If it weren’t for my mother’s request, I wouldn’t stay here.” As he said that, his voice softened and he said bluntly, “Sienna and I were just playing around. Don’t take it to heart.” After I finished speaking, my phone rang with a notification tone. It was a transfer of 13,000 dollars from him to me. I was overwhelmed by the huge pain and shame. The first time I caught him cheating, he knelt in front of me and cried bitterly. He said it was just an accident and begged me not to leave him. I forgave him because of my soft heart. But cheating could be zero times or countless times. In less than a month, I caught him cheating in the hotel. He slapped himself hard countless times, saying that he was just possessed by the devil and he would change. I believed him. But in the next two years, he cheated 33 times. Every time I caught him, he vowed that he would never do it again and begged me not to leave him. I cried, quarreled, made a scene, collapsed over and over again and finally gradually became numb. At first, he hid it and didn’t dare to let me find out. Later, he became more and more brazen when he saw that I couldn’t leave him. Yesterday, he was photographed by paparazzi having sex with his secretary in a million-dollar luxury car. Today, his scandal with a female star had become a hot topic and tomorrow, I didn’t know which of his lovers would come to my house... Every time he cheated on me, he would transfer 13,000 dollars to me as compensation. Looking at the 33 transfers on my phone, my heart ached. But he said calmly, “I was just playing with them. Don’t take it seriously. You are the legitimate Mrs. Mullins.” Hearing this, my breathing suddenly stagnated. He seemed to have forgotten that he and I had not yet obtained a marriage certificate.

第3章

Because he said that he could only marry me if I gave birth to the next heir of the Mullins Family. The heir of the Mullins Family must be a son. The laughter of a baby suddenly sounded outside the ward. My mother-in-law walked into the ward with the baby in her arms. “George, you haven’t seen your son yet, right?” Hearing that it was a son, George was stunned for a moment, with a little surprise in his eyes. The next moment, his mobile phone received a message. He didn’t even look at the child and left in a hurry, leaving only a cold sentence. “It’s just a little baby. What’s so good about it?” It was as if the child had nothing to do with him. My heart seemed to be pinched by a big hand and it was suppressed to the point of exploding. When I was just pregnant, he was ecstatic. He said that he would be a good husband and a good father and would give this child a happy and complete family. Because of his words, I was moved by him. I had never enjoyed the warmth of home. What I wanted most was to have a home that belonged to me. I left the baby in my belly. I thought he would turn over a new leaf and come back to this family. I was fooled. He pretended to be a good husband for less than half a year, but his true colors were revealed. When I was six months pregnant, I saw him bringing another woman home to hang out. During the quarrel, he pushed me and almost caused me to miscarry. Afterward, he humbled himself in the ward and begged me to forgive him for the last time. He said humbly, “Rosa, the baby in your belly can’t live without a father.” My bottom line retreated again and again and he became more and more unscrupulous. I handed him the knife that hurt myself. My phone vibrated. Sienna sent a pregnancy check-up form and a photo of George accompanying her for a gynecological check-up. She said. “So what if you have a child? People who don’t love you won’t love the child you give birth to. With just one word from me, he can abandon you and your child and follow me away. Rosa, you are a joke.” Yes, I was a joke. I would never have any expectations for George again. I did not reply to the message sent by Sienna. There was no need. I would leave soon. My mother-in-law brought her son to me and asked me to hold him. After the child was born, he stayed in the nursery and I had not held him yet. My body froze and I turned my face away cruelly. I was afraid that if I looked at him one more time and held him one more time, my heart would waver. My mother-in-law saw my determination and tears overflowed from her wet eyes. “The baby has just been born and you are going to let the baby be without a mother… For the sake of the baby, can you try to live with him again?” My heart trembled fiercely and tears burst out of my eyes. My throat was choked and I couldn’t speak. I just kept shaking my head. I couldn’t bear to leave the baby, either. But as the eldest son of the Mullins Family, I couldn’t take the baby away. But I had no way to stay in the Mullins Family anymore. I didn’t want to be trapped in this desperate family for the rest of my life because of the child. After a while, my mother-in-law begged. “Wait until you recover before leaving, okay?” My nose was sore and I nodded. I didn’t want to stay in the hospital. I went home when I felt a little better. I fell into the water right after giving birth and was seriously injured. It would take at least more than a month for my body to fully recover. During this month, I packed my luggage bit by bit.

第4章

Throw away what should be thrown away, destroy what should be destroyed and the room that was originally packed full became empty bit by bit. During this period, George went home more and more often, contrary to his usual behavior. But he didn’t notice anything unusual at home. One night, he pushed open the door and walked in, lying next to me. The moment he approached me, my body froze instantly. He saw my resistance and couldn’t help but sneered. “Do you think I would touch you? You look so ugly now. I have a lot of women outside. Why would I touch you?” My heart was stabbed with a knife and blood was dripping. Falling into the water after giving birth caused irreversible damage to my body. Add to that the sequelae of postpartum, body shape, hair loss and difficulty in defecation... Even if I forced myself to eat all kinds of nutritional supplements every day, my face was still pale and haggard that couldn’t be concealed. I didn’t say much and turned my back to him. He stared at me quietly for a long time and suddenly said. “Rosa, can we live a good life in the future?” My heart skipped a beat. My mother-in-law promised me that she would keep the news of my leaving a secret from me, so why did he say such a thing? George said reluctantly, “Mom asked me to calm down and get a marriage certificate with you. You gave me a son, so I should take responsibility.” I pulled the corners of my mouth, but I couldn’t even smile bitterly. The baby room was right next door, but he never stepped into it. And he never took a good look at our baby. On the contrary, I could receive protest messages from Sienna on my phone every day. He accompanied Sienna to prenatal checkups, made nutritious meals for Sienna and personally massaged Sienna’s swollen thighs... He gave Sienna and the baby in her belly all that tenderness and companionship. What qualifications did he have to ask for a marriage certificate from me? I closed my eyes, pretended to be asleep and kept silent. I didn’t want the marriage certificate that I had been waiting for for many years. Time passed, my health was getting better and better and the day I left was getting closer and closer. My mother-in-law couldn’t shake my determination, so she could only smile bitterly and start to arrange things after I left. My baby didn’t meet a good pair of parents, but fortunately, he had a mother-in-law who loved him wholeheartedly. I decided to register my baby’s household registration under my mother-in-law’s name. Even so, from a legal point of view, there would be no father-son relationship between the baby and George. My mother-in-law promised with tears in her eyes. “Don’t worry, I will take care of the baby in the future and I will not let the baby suffer any grievances.” On the day when the baby was about to be registered, my mother-in-law asked me nervously, “You are his mother. You should name him.” I gritted my teeth and refused. After the name was given, there was a thought. It was better to pretend that I had never given birth to this child. My mother-in-law’s eyes were moist, but she said nothing. George happened to see it. Looking at the household registration book in the mother-in-law’s hand, he frowned. “What are you doing?” My mother-in-law wiped her tears and said, “You came at the right time. You can give the baby a name.” George’s face was full of carelessness. “It’s just a name. You can just give it by the way, no need to ask me.” My mother-in-law disagreed, “You are the child’s father, but you are so careless in naming your child. How can you be a father at all…”

第5章

I interrupted my mother-in-law. “Let him be.” Anyway, he had never called himself the father of this child since the first day he was born. It didn’t matter whether he named the child or not. Hearing this, George looked at me with a little surprise. There was a little inquiry in his eyes, looking straight at me, but he could only see my calm face. He wanted to say something, but the phone in his pocket vibrated. It was Sienna’s call. He threw his doubts behind him and turned away regardless of my mother-in-law’s obstruction. “I have something else to do, so I won’t be back tonight.” My mother-in-law could only look at me with a wry smile. I closed my eyes and smoothed out the ripples in my heart. After the baby’s household registration was completed, it was time for me to leave. The next day, I packed my luggage and prepared to leave. My mother-in-law insisted on holding the baby to see me off, with tears in her eyes. “Aren’t you going to see him for the last time?” George did not return home overnight as he said yesterday. I shook my head. “No need.” My mother-in-law burst into tears. “Then take one last look at the baby.” I choked and shook my head. These days, like George, I had never taken a good look at the baby. I was afraid that I couldn’t bear to abandon the baby. My mother-in-law finally gave up and handed the baby to the nanny. She forced a check for 13 million dollars into my hand and said forcefully, “You have been living in our Mullins Family without a name or status for these years and you gave birth to a child for the Mullins Family. This is what you deserve. You are not allowed to refuse.” After a long silence, I finally accepted it. My mother-in-law once said that if I gave birth to a child for the Mullins Family, she would give me 13 million dollars. I thought it was just a joke, but it turned out to be true. I left without looking back with the check for 13 million dollars. Before boarding the plane, I suddenly received a call from George. His voice was firm. “I’ll give you half an hour. Bring your household registration to the City Hall and I’ll get a marriage certificate with you.” I hung up the phone without hesitation, broke off the phone card and threw it into the trash can. I didn’t need George or the marriage certificate anymore. I boarded the plane and went to another country. And George waited in front of the City Hall and called me countless times. But I never replied. For some reason, he felt an inexplicable sense of anxiety in his heart. After waiting in vain for several hours at the City Hall, he hurried home to find his mother and asked her quickly, “Where is Rosa? Why didn’t she come to the City Hall? Does she still want to get a marriage certificate with me?”
