The Price of Betrayal novel Chapter 4

Seeing that I had calmed down and closed my eyes, the two probably thought I was asleep.

Caspian, lying beside me, held Wren tightly, kissing her again and again, his hands also starting to wander.

I listened to the sounds of their intimacy beside me, tears silently flowing down my face.

Back then, to fulfill my father's wishes, I chose to marry Caspian.

I thought I had married an honest and decent man.

Now I can only swallow this bitter fruit myself.

"Caspian, do you know why I wanted to sleep with her?"

"Why, my dear Wren?"

"Of course, it's because I'm afraid she'll run away! What if she gets upset and runs off while sleeping on the couch?"

"I don't care about her, but we can't let anything happen to our baby!"

"Our Wren is so smart!"

The two became intimate again.

Seeing that they had fallen asleep, I quietly took out the scissors from under the pillow, cut the rope, and slipped out the door.

I took a taxi back to my old family home.

Father had gone to bed early, so I tiptoed back to my room.

I called my friend late at night.

"Hey, when I did the IVF before, were there any suspicious people during the process?"

"It's been so long, how am I supposed to remember?"

The person on the other end of the line was probably woken up, their voice full of sleepiness.

"Now I suspect someone switched my eggs!"

Hearing this, my friend's voice suddenly became alert.

"What? What happened?"

I told my friend everything that had happened in the past two days in detail. After listening, she fell silent for a moment.

This friend and I are like sisters who have been through life and death together. We're the kind of people who can trust each other with our lives.

"Now that you mention it, I do remember something."

"At that time, there was a woman wearing a mask who sneaked into where we stored the eggs."
