His submissive demeanor only brought me satisfaction.
These people had dared to plot against me.
It was only right they face the consequences of their arrogance.
There was no turning back now.
I restrained my delight in vengeance, guiding Debra and a group of people into Alexandriaâs ward.
Calebâs POV:
In the ward, Alexandria caught sight of me and her eyes sparkled.
In a woeful tone, she said, âYou finally came to visit me.
â
When I heard that voice, disgust surged through me.
I wanted to kill her for daring to deceive me.
Yet, Alexandria seemed to revel in her role as the victim.
Clutching her stomach, she sobbed again, âDo you realize how much my stomach hurts? The doctor even warned of a possible miscarriage.
Iâm terrified.
Canât you just stay here with me?â
As she talked, Alexandria cast a frightened glance at Debra.
In response, I squeezed Debraâs hand tighter, pulling her slightly towards me, a clear signal for Alexandria to grasp the bitter reality.

Noticing our interlocked hands, Alexandriaâs face, already ghostly, lost even more color.
I had no desire to entertain Neal and Alexandriaâs melodrama any longer.
With a sneer, I retorted, âYou might be at risk of a miscarriage, but why should that concern me?â
Alexandriaâs face was marked with distress as she implored, âThis is our child.
How can you say it has nothing to do with you? Donât you feel any responsibility for our baby?â
I couldnât suppress a chuckle.
Stepping aside, I signaled to the bodyguards outside.
âBring him in.
â
Alexandria, puzzled by my request, stared in confusion.
A moment later, as the bodyguards ushered the man into the room, her expression shifted dramatically.
I remained silent, merely regarding her with a frosty gaze.
The truth was now in plain sight, and I was curious to see her response.
Gradually regaining her composure, Alexandria feigned confusion.
âWho is this man? Why is he in my ward? I donât recognize him at all.
â
Hearing her denial, I let out a derisive sneer.
âReally? You donât know him?â
Alexandria shook her head.
Tiring of the charade, I exchanged a knowing look with my bodyguards.
One of them tossed Alexandria a stack of photos depicting her on a date with a man and the pair entering a hotel.
The photos sprawled across the bed, and the expressions of Alexandria and Neal shifted dramatically.
Upon seeing the evidence, the man caught in the act realized his secret was out and began to frantically apologize, bowing repeatedly.
