"Is Kane returning?"
Amora, who was eight months pregnant, was folding the newly purchased onesies in the nursery when she overheard the housemaids' talk.
‘Is he going to return? Is it because my due date is getting closer?’’ Her hands trembled as her heart swelled with joy.
Despite the fact that Kane was the child's father, she had only met him once, on their wedding night.
He never returned after that.
She stroked her pregnant belly, her eyes welling up.
"Oh, my baby, I know your daddy doesn't like me, but it's all right.I'll be content as long as he's around to witness your birth."
Her face was lit up with a happy and satisfied smile.
Kane reappeared two days later after being missing for ten months.
When Amora got the news, she gingerly trotted out of her bedroom, holding her baby bulge, to meet him.
Her expression darkened as she glanced down from the top of the stairs.
Aside from the man she sorely missed, she noticed a woman standing next to him in the living room.
"Kane, I asked you to return to look after Amora.How come you brought this woman back?"
"Don't you understand why? As I already stated, I have nothing to do with this marriage.Hallie is the lady I want to marry, and she's standing next to me right now."
Kane's sculpted face was cold under his black coat.
While leveling his father's gaze, the man radiated a chilly atmosphere.
Chris was enraged by his son's statements.
"Don't you realize Amora's due date is approaching? She's carrying your child! How dare you say such a thing!"
"Huh, the baby?" he snorted.
"If you hadn't laced my drink on my wedding night, she wouldn't be pregnant.You know what, the baby doesn't deserve to be born!"
The living room was deafeningly quiet.
Amora felt a deep pain in her chest as she stood by the staircase; his words ripped through her heart, shredding it to smithereens.
At that moment, she had a brief loss of vision, and the surrounding noises faded away.
‘’How could he say such a thing! My child...My child is undesired..” She quickly became dizzy and lightheaded.
"Oh no! Madam! You're bleeding, Madam!"
"What?"
The housemaids' yells rang out throughout the Ronin Residence at that same moment.
Both father and son, who were fighting, looked up to see the pregnant Amora standing near the stairway.
Blood ran down her legs from beneath her skirt to the stairs.
Kane's demeanor shifted when he saw the horrifying image.
