Chapter 30
After a night of passion, the now–sober Alex felt like his head was splitting apart.
He painfully opened his eyes to find a woman in his arms, her face hidden by long hair.
Her smooth, rounded shoulders were covered with crimson marks–clear evidence of what he had done last night.
Alex’s eyes widened in shock, his mind temporarily losing all reason.
At that moment, the woman in his arms moaned softly and slowly raised her head, offering him a
smile.
“Alex.”
What should have been a peaceful morning instantly descended into chaos. Alex never imagined he
would be drugged and manipulated by a woman.
As rage burned through him, a wave of despair surged from his heart.
Before, when he slept with Violet, it had been to give her a child.
Now, with his heart set on winning Charlotte back, sleeping with Violet again meant any chance with Charlotte was completely destroyed!
Charlotte valued fidelity above everything–how could she ever accept him after he had been with another woman again?
Unable to maintain his composure, he grabbed Violet by the throat, fury overtaking him: “Are you
fucking crazy?!”
But the harder he squeezed, the louder and more manic her laughter became!
Finally, utterly disgusted, Alex threw her to the floor. Only then did her laughter stop as she coughed several times, then looked up at him coldly.
“Wake up, Alex. Stop living in your fantasy world. From the moment you decided to fake your death and pretend to be your brother to screw me, you and Charlotte were finished. Besides, I might already be carrying your baby.”

Chapter 30
“If you refuse to come back with me and make this official, I’ll send our bedroom photos to everyone. Let the whole world–let her–see exactly how you made love to me…”
“Enough! You’re completely insane!”
Alex slapped her hard across the face, his heart filled with regret.
If he had known his actions would lead to losing his wife and child, he never would have softened and helped Violet!
The slap caused Violet to cough up blood, staining her pale lips red and making her appear even more unhinged and frightening.
“I’m warning you one last time, Alex. If we aren’t married within three days, those photos will be delivered directly to her. She’ll be dragged into your scandal, humiliated by everyone. And then her precious baby…”
“So, accept your fate.”
Alex stared at her, motionless.
His mind raced through possible solutions, but he came to the devastating realization that he had
none.
After hearing Charlotte’s words outside the hospital room, any remaining connection between them had been severed completely.
If Violet actually went through with her threat, causing Charlotte to miscarry…
He had already disappointed and hurt her enough. He couldn’t continue…
Given the circumstances, why not just…
Seeing the murderous intent in his eyes, Violet helpfully reminded him: “Don’t forget your parents.‘
His clenched fist suddenly relaxed, and Alex’s previously straight back completely collapsed.
The corner of Violet’s mouth curled into a satisfied smile.
She knew he had surrendered.
