My name is Harley Foster. Titus Gibson, heir to the Gibson family fortune, dotes on Malia Foster and assigned his best bodyguard to protect her—that bodyguard is my husband, Spencer Griffin.
That day, Malia deliberately pushed me down the stairs.
My son Liam Griffin merely glared at her, and Titus used that as an excuse to force Spencer to tie Liam and me up in an abandoned warehouse.
Spencer clenched his fists, tears in his eyes as he said, "Mr. Gibson said only if I do this myself will you understand how serious this is."
He beat my pregnant body until I was covered...

Spencer clenched his fists, tears in his eyes as he said, "Mr. Gibson said only if I do this myself will you understand how serious this is."
He beat my pregnant body until I was covered in blood, causing me to miscarry on the spot. Liam, who already suffered from leukemia, developed a high fever from an infected wound and fell into a coma.
After the punishment ended, Spencer carried us to the hospital with red-rimmed eyes.
In my hazy consciousness, I heard a conversation outside the hospital room.
"Mr. Gibson, you've been hiding your identity, caring for Mrs. Gibson's sister under the guise of being a bodyguard, and pretending to be forced into harming her, causing her miscarriage and Liam's coma. If she knew the truth, she'd be devastated."
After a moment of silence, Spencer spoke: "She'll never know. Even if she did, a woman with no one to love or care for her could never leave me. Malia is my benefactor. Anyone who hurts her, even my wife and son, must pay the price."
A tear slid down my cheek. So it had all been a lie from the very beginning.
The conversation outside continued as waves of pain crashed over me.
This wasn't the first time Spencer had used Titus as an excuse to harm Liam and me in order to protect Malia.
