Lily didn’t hold back. “You’re the one who let Elsa into your life. You gave her the chance to sleep with you. That’s on you. So take responsibility–for her and for the baby she’s carrying. Stop chasing after me and wrecking my life just because you’re miserable!”
John felt the sting of her words. Guilt swept over him, and for a moment, he couldn’t say a word.
He truly regretted it.
He regretted telling Elsa the code to the front door.
As he stood there, lost in his thoughts, Lily’s trembling fingers reached toward the nightstand. She grabbed the heavy glass tumbler.
With all her strength, she smashed it against John’s head.
John froze, completely stunned.
His eyes instantly turned red.
Pain, confusion, humiliation, disbelief.
He looked completely lost, like a kid who’d just been left behind.
In the four years they’d been together, Lily had always treated him with love and care.
She handled everything on her own and never overlooked a thing.
If he got hurt, even just a scrape, she’d worry herself sick. She’d give anything to take his pain away and carry it for him.
He couldn’t wrap his head around it–how could someone who loved and doted on him so much bring herself to smash a glass into his forehead?
The shock and pain overwhelmed him. He didn’t know how to react.
It wasn’t until she raised the glass to strike again that he snapped out of it and grabbed her wrist, rough and forceful.
His eyes flared blood–red, rage pouring out of them like a storm.
He drew in a ragged breath, then asked in a shaking voice, “Lily… you hit me?”
She couldn’t move her right hand he had it locked in a tight grip. But she gritted her teeth, raised her left hand, and slapped him hard across the face.
Blood dripped from his forehead, and the slap twisted his flawless, handsome face to the side.
He stood there frozen for nearly half a minute, trying to process what had just happened.
She’d really hit him. Hard enough to make him bleed.

Chapter 311 Shattered
Had she really fallen for James?
But they were getting divorced. How could she possibly love James?
It didn’t matter who she loved. To John, she was his. And she would always be his.
“Lily, you belong to me. No one’s taking you away from me.” He grabbed the glass out of her hand and tossed it across the room. Then he pulled her into his arms, gripping her tight with possessive force. “Yeah, James touched you… but he’s gone now. You’re still mine. Lily, your body, your heart–they’re mine, and they always will be.”
And with that, he pressed a desperate, possessive kiss down onto her lips.
“Don’t touch me!”
Lily jerked her head to the side, disgusted, clearly refusing his kiss.
Seeing her recoil only darkened the storm in John’s eyes. He reached out to force her face back toward him, intent on kissing her, on claiming her no matter what–but suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
Back at the hospital, he had already made arrangements.
He’d ordered his team to bring abortion pills.
He figured that must be them now.
Perfect timing.
He wanted that baby gone. He released her quickly and opened the door.
Just as expected, two of his most trusted men stood outside.
One of them handed him a small bottle. John took it, walked back toward the bed, and spoke with cold certainty.
“Lily, take the pills. James doesn’t deserve to have a child with you. Once this kid’s gone, we’ll have plenty of children of our own.”
Lily wasn’t stupid–she knew exactly what those pills were.
She desperately wanted to keep the baby.
She had never been a mom before.
But she remembered what it felt like to be loved by one.
After the divorce with James, she had no intention of marrying again. She just wanted to raise her child right.
She had more than enough money to give the baby a good life.
She would pour love into that baby and raise him with joy and care.
