Tonight Her Love Ended novel Chapter 285

She looked down at the child in her arms and spoke quietly.

"I was originally pregnant with twins. But there was a car accident, and only one survived. She was born premature, at just six months. Kieran Pearce hired internet trolls to smear my name, and his fans cornered me at the office, causing me to go into early labor. I hemorrhaged during the delivery and almost died. She spent a long time in an incubator and only got discharged recently... I don't want to get into the rest. I just ask that you please keep her a secret from Tristan, Mr. Clayton."

Nova didn't know if he would agree.

She just turned and looked at him.

Chuck was already reeling from her first few sentences.

"A car accident? Who hit you? Was it handled? Why haven't I ever heard about this?" Chuck thought to himself that with how deeply Nova loved Tristan, she surely would have told him about something as massive as a near-fatal crash.

Yet, not a single word had leaked out to their circle.

Nova offered a bleak, empty smile. "The driver was Yvette. She was driving the red Maserati Tristan bought her, and she rammed into my car. Both of our cars went over the bridge. I called Tristan, knowing he'd get there faster than the paramedics. And he did. But he only took Yvette. He never even answered my calls. I waited for the rescue team, and by the time I got to the hospital, the baby was gone. Yvette only suffered a few scratches. Later, I received an official notice saying the other party had paid to settle the matter. I couldn't even press charges..."

Chuck saw the agonizing pain surging in Nova's eyes as she recounted the story.

Forcing a mother to relive the loss of her child was nothing short of a psychological execution.

He didn't dare ask any more questions.

He just remembered Kieran mocking Nova before, claiming she had lied to Tristan multiple times about having a miscarriage.

Back then, none of them had believed her. They all thought she was just throwing a tantrum, making up lies to get Tristan's attention...

The pain of losing a child. The brutal misunderstanding of the man she slept next to. The malicious judgment of everyone around her...
