These symptoms could easily make someone think they just hadn't rested well, causing them to ignore the changes in their body. That's what happened to me in my previous life. I always thought it was because I hadn't slept well and rarely suspected an internal issue.
Ethan still hadn't realized that his body was close to breaking down.
I pretended to be heartbroken. I covered the smile on my lips, then angrily demanded, "I want her to publicly apologize to me on social media, or this won't be over!"
At that moment, all eyes were on Chloe. Mia tried to smooth things over, but I snapped back, "Mom, do you want this woman to be your daughter-in-law?"
She opened her mouth, awkwardly glancing at Chloe. In the end, she said nothing.
Under everyone's gaze, Chloe could barely stand. She cried and turned to Ethan for help, saying, "Ethan, I can't apologize. If people find out I'm a mistress, they'll curse me. I'll lose my job..."
Just then, one of the aunts by my side couldn't hold back. She took a quick step forward. She grabbed Chloe by the hair and slapped her hard. She said, "Why are you crying? You dare to break up someone's family, but you don't have the guts to admit you're a mistress?"
When Ethan saw his beloved getting hit, he wanted to protect her. Mia shot him a glare, stopping him in his tracks.
Chloe's right cheek swelled up quickly. She covered her face, whining. "Ethan, help me. I'm carrying your child."
I immediately raised a fuss, shouting, "Illegitimate child! She's carrying an illegitimate child!"
This stirred up the other four aunts instantly. They all had unpleasant experiences of illegitimate children coming after their family's inheritance.
All five aunts swarmed Chloe, punching and kicking her.
Ethan rushed over and shielded Chloe in his arms, pleading, "Aunties, we were wrong. Please don't hurt the baby."
At that moment, Mia returned with the police.
