He Harvested Our Daughter's Bone Marrow , Then I Showed Him the Fake Marriage CertificateChapter 1

Eight months pregnant, and Thomas Gilbert had me committed to a psych ward fifteen times. I had him hauled to a police station sixteen.

All because whenever I leaked footage of him and his first love getting intimate, he'd have me institutionalized.

A few days of "treatment" later, I'd inevitably drag him right back to the precinct.

After ninety-nine rounds of filing for divorce, both sets of parents finally cracked under the chaos and stepped in to mediate a reconciliation.

He burned the betrothal gifts the Shen family had sent for me. I shredded the marriage contract the Liu family had drawn up for him.

At the courthouse, he held me so tight I could barely breathe.

"No more fighting."

"If you don't want her around, I'll make her leave."

"From now on, it's just us and our baby. We'll be a real family."

His voice was soft as water. My eyes burned red.

We remarried. Tracey Harding vanished without a trace.

Until the day of our daughter's first birthday party, when Lily Abbott was snatched right out from under us.

I called in every connection I had, searching everywhere like a woman gone mad.
