I listened to his retreating footsteps, a mocking smile playing at the corners of my mouth.
Beg him? Not in this lifetime!
Because of John’s firm stance, Lily couldn’t get her way into the house.
Dylan took her to the hospital for a checkup, only to discover she wasn’t pregnant at all.
So he began tormenting Lily even more relentlessly, as if he wanted to drain her completely.
Every time I saw Lily, her legs were shaky and she could barely walk straight.
But perhaps because she came too easily, Dylan gradually lost interest in her.
He’d been attracted to her only because she put on that pure, conservative act–like some untouchable flower on a pedestal.
Now that he’d plucked the flower, it naturally lost all its appeal.
Lily could sense it too, and she was frantic as an ant on a hot
pan.

I stood by the window, watching the scene below as Lily and Dylan argued.
“Let’s do IVF–that way we’ll have a better chance.”
Lily clutched at Dylan’s sleeve, her voice carrying a pleading
tone.

Dylan shook off her hand and said coldly, “There’s nothing wrong with me. If you can’t get pregnant, maybe there’s something wrong with you.”
“The Sullivan family has always had fertility issues. Maybe you do too–come with me to the hospital for a checkup.”
Lily tried to drag Dylan toward the exit.
“Slap!”
The sharp sound of a slap rang out.
“Get lost! If you want to go, go by yourself. I’m fine.”
Dylan shoved her away in humiliated rage.
I chuckled softly. Dylan, that man, always so arrogant.
He must be getting desperate now–after all, the Sullivan family rule stated that only men who had children could inherit shares.

Right now, he was nothing more than a figurehead vice president at the company.
Sure enough, before long I received word that Dylan was keeping several mistresses on the side, calling it his “multi–pronged approach.”
How could I not let Lily know about such delicious news?

I had someone leak the information to her, then sat back to wait
for the show.
The next day, Lily stormed into Sullivan Group.
Dylan was in the middle of a board meeting when she burst through the conference room doors.
“Dylan! You’re actually keeping mistresses on the side! How could you do this to me?”
Dylan’s face turned ashen. “Get her out of here!”
The secretary moved to escort her out, but Lily screamed like a madwoman:
“No matter how many women you find, it won’t help! You’re impotent! I secretly took your samples for testing–you have weak sperm!”
The entire conference room fell silent.

Sitting at home watching the live video someone had sent me, I burst into delighted laughter.
Dylan looked absolutely livid as he pointed at Lily’s nose and snarled, “You’re not even my wife yet—what right do you have to interfere? Get out!”
Lily was intimidated by Dylan’s threats and realized she’d lost control.
She immediately switched to a meek demeanor, saying submissively, “I just love you too much… I was afraid of losing you…”
Dylan felt a wave of disgust.
In my past life, even when I knew about his mistresses, I would only suffer in silence, never making a scene like this.
Nothing like Lily, acting like a shrew and making him lose face completely.
With the comparison, Dylan missed my virtues more than ever. Too bad it was all too late.
The Sullivan Group employees were all gossiping about Dylan’s sterility, speculating whether he could still become the heir.
Just then, at John’s birthday party, I pulled out a pregnancy test

“Happy birthday, honey! This is my gift to you.”
