Because he promised to take me to the 

beach to watch the sunset. Look at this 

kissing picture on my screen; that’s when we 

took it.” 

I slapped her phone away and grabbed her 

neck. 

The bottle fell; I smelled gasoline. 

In the struggle, Jenny accidentally lit the 

gasoline. 

Smoke filled the air, flames erupted. 

I collapsed, overwhelmed by smoke. 

I heard Ethan, “Sarah!” 

Followed by the maids‘ shouts, “Sir, it’s too 

dangerous! Wait for security to bring a fire 

extinguisher…” 

“Get out of the way! Sarah’s inside!” 

He ignored the danger and rushed in. He 

< 

didn’t expect Jenny to be there too. 

“Ethan, help…” 

Before she finished, he picked her up, 

ignoring me, and left. 

Thirty minutes later, after comforting Jenny, 

he searched the entire house but couldn’t find 

  1. me. 

At the airport, late at night, I coughed, 

boarding a flight to England. 

Before takeoff, I received a text from him: 

[I’m too busy for hide–and–seek. Jenny’s 

prenatal checkup is at 10 AM tomorrow. 

Come for a lung check–up.】 

I didn’t reply, removed my SIM card, and 

turned off my phone. 

Ethan, from now on, we’re done. 

The next day, at the hospital. 

“Ethan, is our baby okay?” 

Seeing Jenny’s tearful eyes, he immediately 

hugged her, gently saying, “The doctor says 

the baby is healthy, unaffected by yesterday’s accident.” 

“That’s great. You looked serious and silent 

when you arrived… I thought something was 

wrong with our baby.” 

Her words made him pause. 

He couldn’t help but picture my cold gaze in 

the fire. 

Frowning, he opened his phone again. 

He was annoyed that I hadn’t replied. 

Before, no matter how cold he was, I always 

obeyed. 

Now… she was putting on airs. 

Scoffing inwardly, he carefully escorted Jenny 

out of the clinic, had lunch with her, sent her 

home, then went to the office. 

He heard his subordinate report that his 

grandfather had returned and summoned all 

management to a meeting.
