At the police station, Lydia saw Eugene once more. When he caught sight of her standing with Quincy, his eyes turned red with rage, and he tried to charge at them, only to be stopped by the officers.
“Lydia, how could you betray me?” he shouted furiously. “You two are already divorced. Are you really planning to get back together? Why would you hurt me like this?”
To anyone unaware of the situation, he might have sounded heartbreakingly sincere, as if Lydia had wronged him.
“Let’s be clear,” Lydia replied coldly, “we were just friends, never anything more. And for the record, Quincy and I haven’t finalized our divorce. Even if we did divorce and chose to remarry, that’s none of your business. My life choices are my own.”
Just because Eugene had feelings for her didn’t mean she was obligated to reciprocate.
What did he expect? That she would stick around just for him until he decided he was done with her?
“Lydia, I won’t allow you two to be together,” he said, seething. “He’s not right for you at all. Or have you forgotten about the child? That was your own flesh and blood.” Eugene threw out the memory of her lost child, hoping it would hurt her, to keep her away from Quincy.
Lydia’s hand moved to her stomach. “Just so you know, I’m pregnant again. This child is Quincy’s. The one we lost has returned.”
Quincy’s eyes widened in shock. He looked at her stomach in disbelief. There was a child there? Their child?
Eugene’s parents visited the Fay family in person to apologize, offering financial compensation. But the Fays weren’t short on money, and Mr. Fay was fiercely protective of his daughter. “He’ll serve every day the court assigns. Trying to buy me off won’t work. If I catch you pulling any strings, I’ll report it immediately.”
Without hesitation, Eugene’s parents decided to cut ties with him. Although he was their only son, families like theirs often had contingencies in place.
Years ago, they had preserved fertilized embryos, just in case anything happened to their only child. Now that Eugene had shown his true colors, they were prepared to let him go. If their “first choice” didn’t work out, they would simply turn to a “backup.”
“He’ll serve his time,” Eugene’s father assured them. “Afterward, we’ll send him overseas, and he’ll never bother your daughter again. All we ask is that you keep this quiet, for the sake of both our families’ reputations.”
