“Decian, don’t fight over me.”
“If the necklace is that important to sister, I’ll give it back.”
She took off the necklace and handed it to me, but just as I reached out to take it.
Suddenly, she stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.
“Ah! My child… My stomach hurts!”
1 didn’t push her!”
Surprised by Nora’s acting, I quickly explained.
Declan ignored me and nervously held Nora in his arms, carefully asking her:
“Nora, how do you feel? I’ll take you to the hospital.”
“It’s nothing. I just lost my balance…”
With tears glistening at the corners of her eyes, Nora looked at me pitifully:
“Sister, I didn’t mean to take your place as Declaris wife, but Declan treats me so well, I can’t bear to see him without an heir.”

With that, she struggled to get up and kowtowed to me, continuously muttering:
“I’m sorry… I’m sorry. I really didn’t want to ruin your relationship.”
Declan’s forehead veins bulged, his eyes filled with disgust as he looked at me:
“Are you satisfied now?”
I looked indifferent; it was all her own performance. What did it have to do with me?
Not wanting to argue further, I turned to leave.
Who knew Declan would be provoked by my action? He suddenly shoved me.
I fell heavily to the ground, my belongings scattering everywhere.
Sharp pain spread through my body.
Without the inner energy, my body was as weak as a human’s, and I couldn’t stand up from the pain.
“What are you whining about? Get up.”
Declan made no move to help, standing over me and scolding.
Nora suddenly exclaimed, picking up the pregnancy test that had fallen:
“Sister, when did you get depression?”
Then she covered her face and sobbed:
“It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t gotten pregnant, sister wouldn’t have depression. I’ll leave now.”
She cried as if she were about to faint, pretending to leave.
Declan felt sorry for her, looking at me with loathing, as if I were a terrible person:
“Cora, are you done yet?”
“It’s just depression, it’s everywhere now. You think having depression will make me forgive you?”
“Stop making a fuss!”
“Big sister, when did you become depressed?”
After saying this, she covered her face and sobbed, “It’s all my fault. If I hadn’t gotten pregnant, you wouldn’t have become depressed. I’ll leave now.”
She cried so hard she nearly passed out, pretending to leave.
Declan was overwhelmed with emotion and looked at me with disgust, as if I were unforgivable:
“Cora, are you done yet?”
“It’s just depression, isn’t it? Everyone’s dealing with it these days. Do you think having depression will make me forgive you?”
Even being unreasonable has its limits!”

“Even being unreasonable has its limits!”
He snatched the pregnancy test from Nora’s hand and tore it up without even looking at it.
He judged me so harshly, and I looked at Declan in disappointment, as if I never knew him.
Afraid of revealing my tear–streaked face, I turned to leave.
Declan suddenly grabbed me, a flash of panic in his eyes, but it quickly turned cold again:
“Ha, trying to get my attention again?”
“Do you think I’ll fall for your trick?”
“If you want to leave, then go. Just don’t come back. Seeing you cry is annoying.”
The pearl necklace fell to the ground, now covered in dust.
In an unnoticed corner, these pearls, along with my once sincere heart, were trampled into the mud.
