Jace’s face stiffened slightly. “Last night, I was worried something might happen to Tanya. You know Desmond was his parents‘ only son. Now, the baby

He didn’t finish, but I got it.

“So, as long as it’s about her, you’ll always put her first, right?” I asked coldly.

Jace was quiet for a couple of seconds before he said, “Once the baby’s born, things will be different.”

I laughed.

As I turned my head, the rising sun stung my eyes.

I looked at him. ‘Jace, even after the baby’s born, there will be other problems. The might get sick or have accidents. As long as you can use this kid as a

Jace didn’t say anything.

I made my stance clear. “Jace, after getting married, I don’t want my husband taking care of another woman every few days.”

“Rea, give me some time. I’ll sort this out.” Jace’s eyes showed conflict.

“What is there to sort out? She’s someone else’s wife. Even if she needs help, it doesn’t have to be from you. And…” I paused, then continued, “Desmon other close friends too, right? Like Steve and a few others. Why are you the only one so involved?”

Jace’s expression changed. “Because I was the only one with Desmond when the accident happened.”

Hearing the pain in his voice and knowing his guilt over Desmond’s death, I asked, “Jace, did you do something to Desmond?”

“Rea!” Jace’s anger spiked.

After a moment, he asked coldly, “Break up? Are you sure?”

“Yes, I’m sure,” I replied without hesitation.

“Fine, don’t regret it,” Jace said, turning around and tossing the white roses into the trash.

He walked away. I stared at the discarded roses, my eyes stinging with sadness and anger.

“Don’t regret it.” Those three words revealed his true thoughts– he believed I could never leave him. I muttered inwardly, ‘So, that’s why he thinks he can keep hurting me.”

Even though Jace and I had a falling out, I was still his employee and had to keep working. including handing over my duties.

I didn’t quit right away because I wanted to finish the project I was working on, especially the amusement park project.

I had proposed this project, and it meant a lot to me.

Before my parents died, I was a happy girl, loved dearly by both of them. took me to different amusement parks.

My dad had once said he would build an amusement park for me someday. But after he and my mom died in a car accident, I became an orphan.

A year ago, Jace bought a new piece of land. When we were discussing what to do with it, I suggested building an amusement park. To my surprise, he agreed and put me in charge.

I was grateful to him for that. He had allowed me to fulfill my dad’s wish.

I had dreamed of the day the amusement park opened, riding the Ferris wheel with Jace, and telling my late parents not to worry about me, that I was ha

Now, it seemed that dream wouldn’t come true.
