Chapter 23%
The report clearly stated that Rosalie and my father had no blood relation whatsoever.” My father finally lost control; he couldn’t deceive himself into believing Tessa anymore.%
As Tessa tried to defend herself, he suddenly grabbed her by the neck.
“I treated you so well! How dare you betray me!“%
His grip tightened, turning Tessa’s face bright red. She struggled to cough but couldn’t speak.%
Seeing my father’s hatred growing more intense, I thoughtfully called the police.
Soon, the officers separated them, and this incident added several more years to my father’s prison sentence.%
Now, all that was left was to wait for the court hearing.
Meanwhile, on Rowen’s side, I had found the same evidence.
Just like her mother, Rosalie wasn’t satisfied with the affection of only one man.”
I sent all the evidence I’d collected straight to Rowen’s phone./
Rowen, still lying in the hospital bed, enduring Rosalie’s crying, opened his phone./
At that instant, his eyes widened in disbelief.”
Then the phone slipped from his hand and cluttered to the floor.”
He sat there stunned, as if his soul had been drained.
Rowen looked at Rosalie’s belly, his mind flooded with images of her beside other men.”
Suddenly, he stood up, grabbed Rosalie roughly, and dragged her toward the door.”
Rosalie nearly fell as he yanked her hard.
Her hand stung painfully from his grip, and she complained, “Rowen, what are you doing? You’re hurting me!”
But Rowen seemed not to hear her and pulled her all the way to a doctor.
“Schedule an abortion.”
Upon hearing that, Rosalie tore her hand free and shouted, “You’re insane!“}}
Rowen’s eyes stayed fixed on her belly. “The child inside you is a curse! It can’t be born!”
“What are you talking about?” Rosalie looked at him confused and frightened by his expression.”
“Don’t scare me like this. You’re hurting my baby with your words.”
“Pain? Then you have even more reason not to have this baby!” Rowen shouted with red–rimmed eyes.
“Is this child even mine? How many men have you been with behind my back?“Д
Rosalie’s face was drained of color. She never expected Rowen to find out like this.”
Panicked, she tried to soothe him, pulling at his hand gently. “Where did you hear that? You’re the only one I’ve ever loved. How could there be anyone else?”
Rowen listened to her defense, then closed his eyes.”
He trembled all over before finally finding his voice.”
“Alice told me… You’ve had another boyfriend all along. Rosalie, don’t think I’m a fool.“”
Knowing Rowen was upset because of Alice, Rosalie couldn’t sit still any longer.”
After all, it was Alice who caused both her parents to be arrested–and now Rowen was angry at her because of Alice.”
“Alice? It’s Alice again! Do you still like her? You believe everything she says?”
“Then tell me! Do you have a boyfriend?” Rowen clapped back.
Rosalie hesitated.
Her reaction only made Rowen more certain of what I had told him.
“I don’t want this child!”
Exhausted and disillusioned, Rowen looked at the woman he’d always liked and felt only ridicule toward himself. Ignoring Rosalie’s cries, he left abruptly &
He wandered home in a daze, only to find many people moving things out.
“What are you doing?” Rowen frowned as he asked
“A moving company was hired by Miss Alice to remove all the useless stuff, a worker answered
When Rowen walked over to take a look, his expression darkened–this was what she called useless7%
Everything being moved out belonged to him!
Funous, he immediately called me. “Alice! What are you doing?”
His tone puzzled mel
“Rowen, have you forgotten we’re already divorced? This house is mine now. You have to move out*% Rowen tried to say more, but I ended the cat before he could

I didn’t want to waste time arguing with him.
Right now, I was busy working with my mother on taking over the company. Frustrated, Rowen threw his phone across the room.
The noise caught someone’s attention. A maid timidly approached.
“Mr. Campbell, this is something Miss Webber asked me to give you.“>
