Chapter 1: Divorce

now, even canceling the engagement that was hard-won." Bai Mang despised her, warning, "If you can't handle Huo Chenxi, then get rid of this wild child and accept the marriage alliance."Bai Yihuan low...Miss Su, you have signs of a miscarriage and need to be hospitalized for bed rest. Please contact your family to handle the hospitalization procedures!

Su He clutched the prenatal examination report, her ears still echoing with the doctor's instructions.

She came to the hospital because her menstrual cramps were unbearable. Unexpectedly, she found out she was pregnant. Her period was actually a miscarriage spotting.

Recently, she has always been nauseous, but after taking medicine with her husband Huo Shenxi, and Huo Shenxi hasn't been home for over forty days, she didn't expect to be pregnant at all, thinking it was just a stomach problem.

Taking a deep breath, Su He took out his phone and dialed a familiar number.

Until it was automatically disconnected, no one answered as always.

Su He stared blankly at her phone screen, the joy of pregnancy and the anxiety of a potential miscarriage mingling into bitterness.

Not far away, the girl who was with her checking out a pregnancy, was held in her boyfriend's arms, weeping with joy.

"Ding—"

Suddenly, a trending topic popped up on Su He's phone screen. He subconsciously clicked on it.

The head of the Four Great Families, the Shen Family, has finally found a lead on their missing daughter after many years.

Su He skimmed past the newly promoted top trending search, her finger sliding down.

Top ten trending searches, besides the search for Shen Jia's missing daughter, there are three about Huo Chen Xi.

Renowned pianist Bai Yihuan and Emperor Group chairman rekindle old flame.

Ho Chenxi and Bai Yihuan's wedding is approaching.

Ho Chenxi and Bai Yihuan passionately kissed and spent a good night together.

Su He's heart was in her throat. She was about to exit the trending topic and lock her phone when her mother-in-law, He Suwen, sent another message.

"Su He, you don't deserve Chen Xi. This marriage was a mistake from the start. Yi Huan is Chen Xi's true love. Don't hold him back."

Along with that, there are also two photos.

A prenatal check-up form, Huo Chenxi holding Bai Yihuan and talking to the doctor.

Huo Chenxi was still expressionless, but his eyes looking at Bai Yihuan held a tenderness as gentle as water.

Bai Yihuan, nestled in his embrace, nodded slightly. Her hands rested on her flat stomach, her face filled with shyness and happiness.

Su He flipped through the photos back and forth, her eyes gradually reddening.

She gritted her back teeth and stomped upstairs.

The maternity check-up form just came out of this hospital's VIP ward. Ho Chenxi and Bai Yihuan should still be there.

I never expected that the first time I'd use Huo Chenxi's black card would be to shut him up.

Outside the VIP ward, Huo Chenxi was accompanying Bai Yihuan to listen to the doctor's orders.

He is handsome and she is beautiful, a perfect match!

Su He squeezed the report in her bag tightly, took a deep breath, and strode towards Huo Chenxi.

Su He's sudden entrance caused everyone present to be taken aback.

Bai Yihuan instinctively sensed that the newcomer was malicious, and immediately buried her head in Huo Chenxi's arms.

The moment Huo Chenxi saw Su He, he inexplicably panicked. But when he met her imposing expression, his sharp and handsome features were shrouded in a layer of gloom.

He instinctively stepped in front of Bai Yihuan, frowning and asking, "What are you doing here"

Su He tried her best to quell the anger in her heart, raised a finger at Bai Yihuan, and asked instead of answering: "She's pregnant, is the child yours"

Huo Chenxi's gaze swept over the doctors and nurses who were eavesdropping with pricked-up ears beside him, his expression becoming increasingly unpleasant. He said impatiently to Su He: "My business doesn't concern you!"

Su He's heart was filled with sadness, her voice trembling with unshed tears: "You forced me to take medicine, preventing me from getting pregnant. It's not that you don't like children, is it You just don't want me to give birth, do you"

Knowing this fact for a long time, now that it's right in front of her, Su He felt like her heart was being ripped apart, the pain almost suffocating her.

Ho Chenxi recalled the humiliating past designed by Su He, his deep eyes were like being soaked in a thousand-year-old ice, surrounded by piercing cold air, and he spoke indifferently: “If you think so, I can’t help it.”

A misty haze welled up in Su He's eyes. Seeing Huo Chen Xi about to take Bai Yi Huan away, she hastily reached out to grab him, but was disdainfully shoved aside by Huo Chen Xi the moment her fingers touched his sleeve.

As she watched them leave without looking back, Su He's tears finally flowed.

"She's Su He Chen Xi, should we explain the situation with the child to her" Bai Yihuan turned around and saw Su He standing there, heartbroken and crying. The corners of his mouth twitched subtly, but he feigned concern and asked.

Ho Chenxi frowned, his eyes flicking to Su He from the corner of his eye. A strange unease filled his heart. Rubbing his temples, he said in a low voice: "There's no need for this, the fewer people who know about it, the better!"

Even though he had been rumored to have affairs over the past three years of their marriage, Su He never questioned him, and he was too lazy to explain.

This concerns Bai Yihuan's reputation. One shouldn't judge a person based on their appearance alone, especially since he was indeed in the wrong. Both morally and emotionally, he should protect Bai Yihuan!

Lost and heartbroken, Su He returned to the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department.

How could Huo Chenxi arrange for her to be hospitalized and have a pregnancy preserved if he didn't want her to give birth

Without a signature from family members, the hospital refused to admit her and only gave her medication to preserve the pregnancy.

"Please, let me keep the baby. I really love you!"

"Trying to scam me with your child Not a chance! Get rid of the kid, and I'll give you money."

Not far away, in the vicinity of the abortion clinic, a crowd gathered to watch as a couple had a heated argument, tearing into each other verbally.

The man was muscular and stout, with a large gold chain around his neck. He looked very domineering.

While the girl had a delicate face and an elegant figure, she was more attractive than the men just by her appearance. Yet, she knelt on the ground shamelessly, pleading with the man.

"Nowadays, girls don't even care about their face for money!"

"A woman's worth is measured by her son, and gold-worshiping women all get ahead this way."

……

The girl was ultimately dragged into the abortion room, and the onlookers who had watched the spectacle dispersed with a lingering sense of satisfaction.

Su He stood dumbfounded, instinctively raising her hand to cover her stomach.

Huocheng Xi also thought she wanted to use her child to gain power and blackmail him, right

This marriage was never what he wanted.

Three years ago, she accidentally saved Grandma Huo and learned that she was going to be sold to a fifty-something widower in the neighboring village by her foster father. Grandma Huo took her home and even threatened to refuse treatment, forcing Huo Shenxi to marry her.

Huo Chenxi, who was raised by Grandma Huo, couldn't resist her and had to get married with her.

They had originally agreed to a secret marriage, planning to divorce once grandma's condition stabilized. But on the night they received their marriage license, there were drugs in the food, and the two of them ended up sleeping together in a daze.

Huo Chenxi suspected that she instigated her grandmother to do this, and became even more cold and disgusted with her.

Six months ago, Grandma Huo's condition worsened. Knowing her greatest wish was to hold her great-grandchild, she tried to talk to Huo Chenxi about it, hoping to fulfill her grandmother's last wish. However, he mocked her with what happened the night they got their marriage license.

After being wrongly accused for many years, she became enraged and decided to really give him a dose of his own medicine.

Just like stirring a hornet's nest, Huo Chenxi was thoroughly enraged. For over four months straight, he tormented her night after night in a frenzy, and afterward forced her to take birth control pills.

Until Grandma Huo passed away, he didn't go home after taking care of her funeral arrangements.

Rather than letting grandma have regrets, he would rather not let her get pregnant. How much he loathes her!

Knowing she's pregnant, will he act like that man just now and force her to have an abortion

Looking at the cold and sterile door of the abortion room, Su He couldn't help but shiver.

Her palm protectively covering her abdomen gradually clenched into a fist. She bit her lip, finally making a resolute decision.

" Huo Chenxi, let's get a divorce!" On her way home, she edited it several times before finally sending the message to Huo Chenxi.

Staring blankly at the sent message, Su He felt a complex mix of emotions.

After all, it was her first time falling in love with a man. However, for the sake of her child, she had to do this!

I didn't expect Huo Chenxi to reply, but within a minute, the message came back.

"Good"

Without asking another word, she made a decisive and abrupt statement, as if she had been waiting for this moment all along.

The cold words pierced Su He's eyes, she bit her lip tightly, turned her head to look at the scenery outside the car window, not letting herself cry anymore., packed up her things and left work. As she walked out of the office building, she saw Hu Yang, the deputy general manager of the marketing department, at the door. 。Last time it was him who provided...
