Noah deeply frowned, and the way he looked at me was full of anger.

“Brielle, what are you doing? Didn’t you promise me yesterday that you wouldn’t touch Millie again?”

I bit my lip hard until I tasted blood before forcing myself to calm down.

I laughed coldly and shouted, “Noah, I agreed to let Millie go because of what happened to my child!”

“But look at what she’s doing now! She killed my child and still calls my child a short-lived ghost! She even burned the few things my child left behind. I’m going to kill her!”

Noah’s body shook as he lifted his head and looked at the once warm children’s room.

Back when I first became pregnant, Noah had been extremely happy.

He even pushed aside the company work and carefully prepared this child’s room with me.

We carefully picked every toy and every decoration, afraid that something bad might hurt the child.

The lucky lock charm that had already burned black was personally carved by him.

Five years of marriage, and that was the first time I truly believed Noah and me could stay together forever.

But in only a few days, Noah seemed like a completely different person.

The housekeeper caused our child’s death, yet he didn’t ask about it or care at all.

He even shared a candlelight dinner with her.

Could five years of love really disappear that fast?

Or maybe he never loved me from the start.

My heart hurt badly, like it was being ripped apart.

Noah noticed how pale I looked, frowned, then quietly sighed.

“Forget it. I agreed to let Millie do this, too. Since the things are already burned, let them burn.”

“The child is already gone. Keeping these things behind isn’t good either.”

After hearing that, I slowly lifted my head in shock.

At first, I thought the so-called master and short-lived ghost were only lies Millie made to fool people.

But Noah actually believed it too.

Did he forget how much he once waited for this child?

Why could he forget the child so completely after only one day?

At that moment, Noah suddenly looked extremely cold to me.

He was so cruel, so disgusting!

My face turned pale as I slapped Noah hard across the face.

I would never allow Millie to keep ruining the child’s things, even if Noah agreed to it!

I used all my strength to shove them away.

Noah’s face looked full of fake helplessness.

“Brielle, enough. Stop causing trouble. Let Millie handle it, or you’ll only feel worse when you see these things later.”

Hearing him speak only made my anger grow stronger.

I suddenly pulled my hand back, ready to slap Noah again.

Right then, Millie grabbed my wrist tightly, anger all over her face.

“I won’t let you hurt Noah again!”

Right after saying that, she suddenly shoved me down the stairs!

I turned around in shock and saw that Noah wasn’t worried about me falling at all, nor did he try to catch me.

Instead, he looked at Millie with eyes full of feeling.

At that moment, my heart completely broke.

With a loud bang, blood sprayed everywhere, and terrible pain spread through my whole body.

My sight slowly darkened, and I passed out.

Right before I lost consciousness, I finally heard Noah’s worried voice.

“Brielle!”

Too bad, I didn’t believe him anymore.

While half awake, I felt my body being carried away.

A needle stabbed into my skin, making my mind a little clearer.

Half-conscious, I heard Noah talking to the doctor.

“Doctor, after the surgery, make a report saying Brielle is okay.”

The doctor answered softly, “But President Garcia, Ma’am’s injuries are very bad. She recently miscarried, and this fall caused even more damage to her spine. Later on, it may be difficult for her to have children again, and there’s also a chance she could become paralyzed...”

Before he finished talking, Noah interrupted him with annoyance.

“I know her injuries are serious, but the report must say she’s okay. Millie didn’t push her on purpose. In the end, Brielle is also responsible for this.”

“If she had done what I told her and allowed Millie to burn those items, none of this would’ve happened. Millie only pushed her because of me. I won’t let Brielle use this reason to hurt Millie!”

The doctor softly muttered again, like he still wanted to say more.

Noah couldn’t wait anymore and openly threatened him.

“You’d better remember whose hospital you work in. Garcia Corporation has hospitals across the country. If I want to, you may never work again in the future...”

The doctor’s hands trembled badly, but in the end, he quietly agreed.

Only after Noah’s footsteps became distant did my tears finally fall.

Even after so many arguments with Noah, I still never thought he could be this cruel.

Millie pushed me downstairs, but he didn’t even care about my condition.

He even planned to help Millie hide the truth.

He really loved Millie.

Then what about me?

I stayed married to him for five years. I was his actual wife.

Did I need to give everything up for their love?

And to Noah, what did our child and I even mean?

Hatred suddenly rushed through my heart.

I didn’t know where the strength came from, but I suddenly opened my eyes and stared at the doctor.

“Keep the real report for me! Otherwise, the Simpson family won’t spare you!”

The doctor looked at me in fear, then finally nodded with shaking hands.

Right after that, the medicine’s effect spread through my body again.

I slowly lost consciousness once more.

Before everything turned dark, I dug my nails deeply into my palm, using the pain to remember this moment.

I was going to use that report to send Millie to prison completely!

I was going to make both Noah and Millie pay for this!

When I opened my eyes again, I was already lying in a hospital bed.

The bright ceiling light hurt my eyes as it swayed above me.

Beside me, Millie saw that I was awake and nervously spoke to Noah.

“President Garcia, your wife is awake. Should I explain things to her?”

Noah quietly nodded.

After seeing that, she turned to me. Her voice sounded sorry, but her eyes secretly carried provocation as she said:

“Ma’am, I’m really very sorry. I only acted carelessly for a moment.”

“I thought you were still trying to hurt President Garcia, so I pushed you down the stairs. If Ma’am had let me throw away those useless things earlier, this wouldn’t have happened.”

With only a few words, Millie pushed all the blame onto me.

And Noah, beside her, stayed silent as he agreed with everything.

I laughed coldly and mocked her. “This is your apology? You treated my child’s belongings like garbage, pushed me down the stairs, and caused me such serious injuries, yet you can’t even say sorry?”

“Who gave you the confidence? Do you think that because Noah protects you, I can’t touch you?”

I looked straight at her, anger showing in my eyes.

Millie pressed her lips together and softly whispered, “Ma’am, I’m sorry. I truly only did this for President Garcia.”

While speaking, her eyes slowly became red.

Even now, she was still pushing the blame away!

I only felt endless disgust, and anger rushed through my chest.

“You’re still avoiding blame! You're saying it’s for Noah’s sake. What does that have to do with me? The injuries I got after you pushed me downstairs, and my child’s belongings you burned, can your simple sorry make up for that?”

I grabbed her hair tightly and dragged her in front of me while Millie cried out in pain.

“I’m sending you to prison!”

Millie blinked, and tears quickly rolled down her face.

“Ma’am, please let me go. My parents at home still depend on me. You have money and can stay here to heal. But if I lose my work and go to prison too, my parents are done for!”

As she spoke, she tried to kneel in front of me.

I held her hair tightly and raised my hand to slap her.

At that moment, a large hand caught my wrist and forced me to let go of Millie’s hair.

Noah looked at me coldly and shouted angrily, “Brielle, are you done causing trouble?”

“Look at yourself. What’s the difference between you and a crazy woman now?”

The moment he said those words, my whole body froze.

For Millie, Noah actually humiliated me like this!

I stared at him and clenched my teeth tightly.

“Noah, she killed our child and pushed me down the stairs, yet you still protect her no matter what. Aren’t you afraid I’ll completely give up on you?”

After hearing that, Noah suddenly stopped moving.

He looked at my empty expression, and panic flashed across his face for a second.

The next moment, Noah raised his hand toward me, seeming like he wanted to wipe the tears from my face.

Seeing that, Millie bit her lip and suddenly dropped to her knees in front of me with a loud thud.

“Ma’am, I can accept punishment for what I did. I’m begging you, please stop making things hard for President Garcia.”

“I did everything myself. If you want to send me to prison, I’ll accept it too.”

As she spoke, Millie heavily bowed her head to me.

Noah deeply frowned, and when he looked at me again, there wasn’t any warmth left in his eyes.

“Enough! Millie pushed you downstairs because of me. I won’t allow you to send her to prison!”

His eyes turned cold as he harshly said, “I already told someone to make a report saying you’re fine. Even if you go to the police station and file a case, nothing will happen.”

“If you want to use the Simpson family’s power, then I’ll use my name as your husband to write a settlement letter for Millie!”

Noah was forcing me to let this matter go completely.

Otherwise, he would make me lose all dignity in front of everyone!

I tightly curled my hands, my pale face looking terrible.

Noah had already arranged everything.

He wouldn’t let me touch Millie at all.

Back when he loved me, people only needed to insult me once.

And he would sue them immediately.

But now, all his love belonged to Millie.

And I became nothing beside the road.

I suddenly lost all my strength as I watched Noah leave with Millie.

Noah didn’t know that I still had the real medical report from the doctor.

He also didn’t know that even if he used the settlement letter to threaten me, it would soon become useless.

Because after seven more days, the marriage between us would fully end.

He would no longer be able to control my life as my husband!
