Chapter 1
My husband gave our baby to his lover as her experiment subject.
When I was pregnant for eight months, I fell off the second floor as the banister was broken.
After I woke up, my husband Antonio was slapping his face, his eyes red with regret. He was sorry for not taking good care of
- me.
Antonio also actively sought for doctors to treat my paralysis.
He showed great concern for me. But one day, I overheard his conversation with my doctor.
“Mr. Kaufman, you got your wife paralyzed just because Ms. Weber needs a woman who’s eight months pregnant for her experiment?
“Now the medicine has damaged your wife’s uterus. Her baby will be dead soon. She’ll go crazy if she finds out about the truth!”
Antonio replied with disdain, “So what? Grace Parrish loves me so much. She won’t hurt me anyway.
“As long as the experiment works, Jessie will be able to publish her thesis and get an award. Her career will be brought to a higher level. I won’t mind sacrificing Grace and the baby.”
Antonio acted like he loved me deeply, just to use me.

For him, my baby and I meant nothing.
In this case, it was time for me to leave.
I sat in the wheelchair stiffly. Their conversation was still on.
“Mr. Kaufman, back then, your wife donated her kidney to save you from kidney failure. Now you’re being so ruthless to her…”
Before the doctor finished his words, Antonio said in a low voice, “She did save my life.
“But you said I’d get a new kidney if I just waited. She didn’t have to rush to give me hers.”
He seemed to realize what he said wasn’t appropriate.
A while later, he said, “Besides, I’ve been buying her
supplements and giving her everything she wants. I don’t have to do all this, you know?”
The doctor heaved a sigh and said, “But Ms. Weber also said it’d be risky without the signed experiment consent letter!
“If
your wife can no longer conceive after giving birth to a dead. baby, how can she live with that?”
Antonio snorted, “Enough. It’s time to give her an injection. Don’t hold Jessie’s experiment up.
“And no more speaking for Grace’s sake. She’s merely an orphan. It’s lucky enough for her to live a well–off life with me.”
I was so disappointed that I forgot to leave.

It turned out that the banister was broken deliberately.
Antonio risked my and our baby’s safety for Jessie’s experiment just because she needed an eight–month pregnant woman.
Back then, Antonio was looking forward to the baby’s arrival and even prepared a baby’s room in advance.
So he had just been acting all along.
The nurse suddenly said, “Mrs. Kaufman, do you need help with the wheelchair?”
The ward door was pushed open abruptly.
A hint of nervousness flashed across Antonio’s face as he saw
- me.
“Grace, when did you come back?”
I refrained from crying and forced a smile. “The weather is nice. today. I just took a walk outside.”
He let out a breath of relief and winked at the doctor.
Antonio carried me onto the bed gently and poured a glass of
water for me.
“Grace, rest assured. I promise you’ll be fine.
“Doctor, please give her the injection.”
He acted like an affectionate husband, and I felt a chill down my spine.
As the doctor was about to insert the needle into my arm, my

body shivered. I asked tentatively, “Antonio, how about I take the treatment after our baby is born?
“I’m afraid the medication may harm the baby…”
Antonio had named our baby and even hired a nanny.
I tried to arouse his paternal love, hoping he’d let our baby live.
But Antonio looked stern and fixed my body hard. “This
medicine is also applicable to pregnant women. No worries. The baby won’t be harmed.
“Your health is the most important to me. Get the treatment. When you’re better, I’ll take you to the spa.”
Antonio only relaxed after he saw me get the injection. I didn’t have a chance to struggle.
“Grace, you can’t act at will anymore.
“You and the baby are very important to me. Both of you gotta be well.”
I looked at him and caressed my belly. “Can our baby really be well?”
Antonio stayed silent for a few seconds and said, “The doctor said the baby had better stay in your belly for ten months. It’ll be fine!”
He was still lying even when faced with my questions.
I shut my eyes to hold back the tears. At that moment, I could feel the smell of blood as I breathed.

“Antonio, I’m a bit sleepy.”
He hastened to light up the scented candle and tuck me in before lying in bed. “Grace, go to sleep. I’m here with you.”
I sent a text when he fell asleep, Dexter, I wanna go home.”
