that’s why you chose my dad. But you’d definitely regret it!”
I kept admiring my dazzling reflection in the mirror, retorting coolly, “Regret? Why would I? And know your place–I’m your
stepmother. I’ll tell your dad if you keep being rude.”
Stumped for a moment, Dylan growled softly but threateningly, “Did you think you’ve won just because you’re with my We’ll see! Oh, and don’t you forget–he’s going to die in a couple of years, and he is sterile!”
dad?!
I raised a brow at him. “I don’t know what you’re talking about… But you should worry about yourself.”
In the last life, Dylan was convinced he was healthy because I got pregnant the first time.
1/3
Get R
But in every examination since, the doctors told me that he had a very low sperm count–so I wonder if he could still be so smug
when he was as sterile as his father.
“Just you wait! You will be begging to have me back!” Dylan bellowed as he stormed out, slamming the door as he left.
Beg? Not in this life!
With John’s vehement interference, Lily couldn’t marry Dylan as she had hoped.
And when Dylan took her to the hospital, they found out that she wasn’t pregnant.
As such, Dylan doubled his efforts, and every time I saw Lily since, she would have a hard time walking straight, as her knees were always threatening to buckle.
On top of that, he was losing interest in her because it took him no effort to get her.
He was attracted to her in the first place because she maintained the false image of a chaste and conservative maiden.
But no matter how precious the flower can be, it becomes uninteresting once it is plucked.
Lily realized that too, and was struck by a sense of urgency.
As for me, I was sitting by my window as I watched them argue downstairs.
“Let’s try IVF!” Lily was almost begging as she tugged on Dylan’s sleeve. “There’s a better chance of success that way!”
“There are no issues with me,” Dylan snapped coolly as he shook her hand off. “You’re the problem for not conceiving.”
“Please, Dylan,” Lily continued to reason as she pulled him toward the gates. “Your family always had fertility issues, and you might too! Both of us should get checked just in case, okay?”
Smack!
There was an audible slap as Dylan struck Lily across the face!
