I had just blown the lid off the Wagner family's hypocrisy and their underhanded schemes.
Naturally, Haley was fuming with embarrassment.
As she looked at me, gripping the car door, I braced myself, thinking she was about to yank the door open to either drag me out or hit me. But instead, she did something completely unexpected—she knelt down in front of my car.
This was a move I hadn't anticipated.
I had imagined she might beg me, but never that she would actually kneel.
This woman really knew how to humble herself when needed.
Her kneeling wasn't a big deal to me. After all, she had stolen my fiancé. But with her being pregnant, kneeling like that could harm the baby. If anything happened, I'd surely get the blame.
So, letting her stay on her knees was out of the question.
However, I didn't get out of the car to help her up. This move of hers was clearly leveraging her pregnancy. If I showed too much concern, she'd only escalate her tactics.
So, with a mocking smile, I asked, "Ms. Perez, what's this all about?"
"Felicia, I'm begging you, let me and my baby stay alive. Please, give us a chance," Haley pleaded.
It was half-past three in the afternoon, and the setting sun was harsh, casting a fierce glow on her face.
She was using her unborn child as a bargaining chip again. It seemed like Aiden's unborn child has become her shield.
But I couldn't let her hold me hostage with it. I asked her lightly, "What have I done to you that you’re asking me to let you go?"
