Will Quinn still embark on her journey for revenge or allow herself to explore the emotions that re-awakened?
Quinn Morgan couldn't look away from the news, feeling her heart ache as she watched the images of her husband with his first love playing repeatedly on the screen.
Today was her third wedding anniversary and she had prepared a special dinner and gifts for her husband, Sebastian Meyer, even when she knew he might not remember what day it was for them.
"I thought he was at the office, what was he doing at the airport?" She asked herself, trying to brush away the fact that he went to pick up a woman.
She leaned back on the sofa as she inhaled a deep breath, waiting for Sebastian to return.
After sitting for what seemed like hours and he hadn't returned yet, she checked her phone only to see that Sebastian had already texted her that he couldn't make it home that night.
She shook her head in fury, the anger surging through her like an electric current. She replied to his text message almost immediately after she read it.
I saw the news. Are you sleeping out because of her?
She didn't get a response as she paced the length of the sitting room, her steps quick and agitated.
"I guess I won't get a response." She mumbled under her breath.
She lost her appetite and walked into her room, her chest aching with a heavy and suffocating pain that seemed to spread through her whole body.
She knew Alice was his first love and he hadn't gotten over her even after she chose his brother over him. She had been married to him for three years and he never showed any affection towards her except during intimacy.
Quinn thought she could make him love her and forget about Alice if she became a dutiful wife, but she was wrong.
"Quinn, don't think too much about it. Just have a good sleep." She consoled herself, before drifting into sleep.

The soft morning light filtered through the window and cast a glow on Quinn Morgan's face. She wearily opened her eyes, her eyeballs red and heavy as a result of a sleepless night. She clutched her phone and swiped it open, the screen filled with unanswered texts and calls to her husband, Sebastian.
She climbed out of bed and strode downstairs through the grand hallway of the mansion. She was about to pack up the dinner that she had prepared the previous night when she heard the door creak open.
Sebastian strolled in with a woman with a burst of hushed laughter. Quinn had never seen him so happy like that before. He was always exuding a cold demeanor when he was with her.
She walked up to him in fury and yelled, "Sebastian, where were you last night? Did you forget what day it was? Why did you bring her home?"
Sebastian shot her a murderous look and walked past her, climbing the stairs to his room. She clenched her hands into tight fists beside her and bit her trembling lips.
"Shall I answer your questions on his behalf" Alice broke the sudden silence after Sebastian left.
A malicious smile tugged at her lips as she continued, "We were together last night, happy to hear that?"
"What was your other question again? Oh, your wedding anniversary. He remembered, but he wasn't interested in celebrating with you. Isn't that how it has been since you two got married?"
Quinn's breath hitched, and her chest felt as if it were being squeezed by an invisible hand.
"Isn't it too shameful to spend the night with your husband's brother?" She asked, trying to control the rage burning inside her.
"One interesting thing about you is that you are too naive. Just wait and see how Sebastian becomes mine. He was mine to begin with, if I hadn't left, do you think he would ever marry a woman like you?"Alice paused and continued, "Look, I'm back to take what belonged to me, which is Sebastian and just so you know, I'm carrying his baby." Alice said, giving Quinn a death stare before climbing up the stairs.
Quinn hurriedly climbed up the stairs to catch up with her, "where do you think you are going?" She thundered.
Alice smiled viciously and shoved Quinn down the stairs. She then threw herself down, taking a harsh tumble down the stairs until she landed on the tiled ground, her stomach striking the surface heavily.
Quinn's eyes widened in shock. "Why is she intentionally hurting herself?" She wondered.
"Ah," She groaned in pain, blood dripping out between her legs, staining her white dress.
Quinn tried to stand up and help her but she felt a sharp pain in her stomach that made her fall back on the ground.
Sebastian heard the strange bang and hurriedly came down the stairs.
"Sebastian, my baby, it hurts." She winced in pain, her hands rolling her stomach.
He hurriedly walked towards her and grabbed her back, his hazel green eyes brewing a storm, ready to engulf Quinn as he fixed her with an icy stare.
He clenched his teeth tightly and growled. "Quinn! If anything happens to Alice or the baby, I'll never forgive you."
Quinn's mind went blank. Was Sebastian truly responsible for Alice's pregnancy?
"I didn't touch her Sebastian," She whispered, but Sebastian was already out of the house, carrying Alice to the hospital.
Quinn's breathing became shallow and her vision became hazy. Her eyes closed slowly and she lost consciousness.
The security, who was surprised to see Sebastian carrying Alice quickly rushed in after he drove away. He saw that Quinn had passed out, he called 911 immediately and she was taken to the hospital.

At the hospital, Alice was lying on the bed weakly.
"Sebastian, please don't blame Quinn. Maybe the baby wasn't meant to be born." She said to Sebastian who was sitting beside her.
"You are too nice Alice, she killed your baby and you still protect her like this?"
"I'm sure it wasn't intentional, and she would be regretting her actions right now. Just let it go please." Alice replied, with a sinister smile on her pale face.
She knew the pregnancy might be a hindrance between her and Sebastian, so she had to take care of it by losing it and making Quinn take the blame. After all, she wasn't supposed to keep the pregnancy at all.

Quinn Morgan didn't know how long she had passed out but the moment she regained her consciousness, she slowly opened her eyes and was greeted with the beeping sound of a monitor. It took her a while to realize she was in a hospital room, putting on a white patient gown.
She saw the doctor standing beside her bed, watching her. "Mrs. Meyer, why were you so careless? You could have hurt the baby." The doctor said to her
"The baby?" Her eyes widened in disbelief trying to comprehend what the doctor was talking about.
"Am I pregnant?" her eyes were filled with tears.
"Yes, you are pregnant Mrs. Meyer. Aren't you aware of it?" The doctor asked.
