Chương 26: Chapter 26 Hope Springs Eternal

Kelly’s POV

Pierce’s painful betrayal drove me to rage. I threw my phone on the floor and rushed to the kitchen. I saw Klay sitting on the chair while a maid was serving the food for breakfast. I ignored them and went to search the cupboard.

I need to numb myself. It’s so painful I couldn’t endure it. I need to at least forget what I saw by drawing my attention to something.

I found alcohol. I quickly opened it but Klay suddenly snatched the bottle from me and replaced it with a glass of milk.

I looked at him angrily. “Give that back!”

He clenched his jaws. “No.”

“Give that back, Klay!”

“Are you trying to kill the baby inside you?”

That made me still. I stared at him as I started sobbing. My heart is aching so much. I waited for him to visit me in the hospital. I’ve been thinking about contacting him, worried that he’s worrying about me but everything I thought was wrong.
