Chapter 6
Antonio picked up the recorder with trembling hands.
He carefully pressed the play button.
He heard the doctor trying to stop him, but he just scolded. He also heard Jessie’s mocking, sarcastic voice and the sounds of their intimate times in the greenhouse.
As the recording played, he finally realized that he had been deceived.
Jessie didn’t need pregnant women as experimental subjects at all. She just didn’t want Grace to give birth to the heir of the Kaufman family.
She regretted turning down Antonio and wanted to get rid of Grace and become Mrs. Kaufman herself!
Antonio’s legs went limp, and he sank weakly to the ground.
Antonio covered his face with his hands and broke down in
tears.
He realized it was too late…
It turned out that there was no human experiment. Everything was Jessie’s lie.
He had actually hurt his wife and their unborn baby because of a woman’s jealousy!

Antonio knelt on the ground with a thud, which caught Jessie’s
attention.
She covered her nose and said in disgust, “Antonio, can’t you smell that stench?
“What has Grace been doing? She’s made this room a pigsty.
“I almost thought it was her body odor.”
She covered her lips and chuckled.
In the next second, Antonio grabbed Jessie’s neck tightly, leaving her unable to move.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he growled through his gritted teeth. “Jessie, you drove Grace away!”
Jessie had never been treated so roughly by him. Even during their sex, he had always been extremely gentle.
Terrified, Jessie couldn’t help slapping his arm.
“Antonio, what are you saying? I don’t understand!
“Let go of me. You scared me.”
Antonio noticed her pale face and then let go.
“Jessie, do you think I’m so gullible?”
Seeing her sitting on the ground, gasping for breath, he couldn’t help but picture Grace’s frail face.
When had Grace realized that Jessie was lying?

Antonio had been so careful, and Grace hadn’t shown any signs. of suspicion after she was paralyzed.
Except for that argument with the doctor…
Grace was really looking forward to the baby’s arrival. She knitted clothes and made little shoes for them.
Now, he had destroyed everything!
His hypocrisy had deeply hurt Grace. She no longer wanted to
see his fake affection, so she chose to leave him.
Antonio finally realized that Grace truly didn’t want him.
anymore.
His children, his wife, and the happy family he should have had were all ruined by his own deeds!
But Jessie thought that he had gotten over Grace’s departure.
So, she hugged his waist and said, “Antonio, even though Grace initiated the divorce, you can’t let a disabled woman hold you back for the rest of your life.
“You’ve always had feelings for me. We can be together openly from now on.
“Also, Grace was affected by the drugs and won’t be able to get pregnant again. If she stayed, she would never give you a child!”
Antonio stared at her with a dark look in his eyes.
Jessie pursed her lips shyly and said, “Antonio, I was wrong to reject your confession before. Let’s be together from now on.

“In the past, I was so focused on my research, but in the end, I realized that the people around me are the most important.
“Everyone says we, as childhood sweethearts, are a perfect match. Grace, an orphan, would only disgrace you. You punished her for bullying me, and she had it coming. It was smart of her to leave.”
In the past, Antonio would have eagerly held her in his arms and immediately started planning to marry Jessie.
But now, having seen Jessie’s true nature, he only felt sickened.
The hickeys on her body seemed to mock his stupidity and disloyalty.
He had once flown abroad to bid precious jewelry just because Jessie had frowned.
Because of her few tears, he had spent a fortune to buy an island for her and even named the island after her.
Even the pink diamond ring he had made as a birthday present for Grace was now on Jessie’s finger.
He had wronged Grace in countless ways.
Yet, he still pretended to love and care for her. A few casual words of concern from him were enough to make Grace happy for days.
Antonio slapped himself hard.
