Chapter 1

During our vacation trip, my water broke on the way to the airport.

Someone helped flag down a taxi, and just as they were about to help me in, my husband rushed over and blocked them.

"My wife has a history of fraud. The last person who helped her ended up paying five hundred thousand dollars."

The bystander jerked their hand back in fear, and the taxi driver refused to take me.

I had no strength to explain. I could only dial emergency services with trembling hands.

But when the ambulance arrived, Ethan just sneered coldly.

"My wife is in her third trimester and often leaks urine. Every time, she thinks her water broke."

"She has serious mental problems. No matter what the test results show, she'll accuse the hospital of scamming her."

"If you take her to the hospital, not only won't you get paid, but she'll also call the police and sue you."

The paramedics cursed and left.

I was drowning in despair when Ethan looked at me with complete calm.

"Your sister Sophia is pregnant. The baby is mine."

"Her due date is today. I promised her I'd make sure her child is born first."

"Just hold on a bit longer. As soon as she delivers, I'll arrange your surgery immediately."
