Grace didn’t know how she got home eventually.
She only remembered that in the torrential rain, her heart died again and again.
In confusion, she heard someone blame himself and call her name repeatedly.
Three days later, with Antonio’s careful care, Grace’s high fever finally subsided.
Antonio was excited, but then he noticed how pale and emaciated her face was, and he became distressed again.
“Honey, get some more rest. I’ll make you a fish dish, and then you can take your medicine.”
After Antonio disappeared from the room, Grace looked toward the door, feeling sad.
Whenever she fell ill, Antonio would always make her a fish dish.
The tender fish meat, which he claimed to contain his deep love for her, would always warm her heart.
Grace knew that over these days, Antonio had been taking care of her without a moment’s rest.
Because he had grown stubble, and there were dark circles under his bloodshot eyes.

She would’ve been touched if Antonio wasn’t the person responsible for her pain.

After taking a few bites of food, Grace said, not wanting to see him, “I’m feeling better now. You should get some rest yourself.”
Antonio looked down at himself and replied, “Hmm, I’ll take a shower. I’ll be right back!”
Just as Grace was in a daze, several text messages flooded in.
They were from Mylie.
“Grace, are you feeling better?”
“Did you like the fish I cook?”
“These past few days, Antonio has been taking care of you, and I’ve been taking care of him.”
“I couldn’t bear to see him do this all on his own, so I helped him. You wouldn’t mind, would you?”
Grace pressed her chest, suddenly feeling nauseous.
But she received more texts from Mylie.
“By the way, I left a small gift for you.”
“It’s in the dark–colored trousers Antonio wore today. Remember to check it out.”
Grace tremblingly searched inside the trousers, and when she found that thing, she could barely stand.
It was a pregnancy test strip.

The result was positive.
Just then, Mylie called, her arrogant voice ringing out.

“Grace, you saw everything at the club the other night, didn’t you?
“Why are you pretending nothing had happened?
“Thank you for sponsoring my college studies and funding my future.
“That’s how I met my true love. We’re having a child.
“Right, you once asked about how we met.
“Well, to thank you for your financial support, I’ll tell you.”
Through her triumphant voice, Grace learned everything.
A year ago, Grace had a miscarriage.
Antonio, equally in pain, refrained from having intimacy with Grace and drowned his sorrow in alcohol at the club instead.
That was when Mylie dressed herself like Grace and swooped in to seduce him.
At first, Antonio coldly pushed her away.
However, Mylie wrapped herself around him, enticing him, “It’s okay. I want to do it. I won’t ask for anything in return. Consider it as doing me a favor. Give it to me…”
From then on, they started to fool around with each other.
At this moment, Grace’s heart ached with such intensity that

she could hardly breathe.
Hatred surged within her.
In a frenzy, she smashed her phone on the floor.
Her heart died in that instant.
