My Fiance will Take our Baby and Marry His Ex

Virginia has loved Slade Forsyth for ten years, and for three of them she has been his secret. When she becomes pregnant, he finally proposes, and she believes her patience has been rewarded. Then, five months along, she walks into his office and finds him with Millicent Laramie, the ex who left him because she never wanted children. Slade promises Millicent they will marry once Virginia gives birth, revealing that he only proposed to secure an heir.

Humiliated and betrayed, Virginia makes two decisions: she will not carry a child for a man who used her, and she will vanish so completely that he regrets losing her forever. She schedules an abortion and calls someone from her past, asking if a marriage promise still stands.

At home, Slade plays the devoted father-to-be, but Virginia sees only manipulation. As Millicent flaunts his proposal, Virginia quietly packs away their shared life, hiding her plans behind a cold smile.
