On the eve of her wedding, Whitney Valentine and her younger stepsister were kidnapped, but her fiancé only
rescued her sister.
The kidnapper lunged at her with a sneer, tearing at her clothes with a vicious rip.
Still in disbelief. Whitney waited foolishly, yelling, “No! Please wait more… Simon Perlman said he’d pay the ransom.”
With a mocking laugh, the kidnapper dialed a number and barked, “Monica Valentine, your elder sister sure is a fool!”
Whitney froze.
Her sister’s mocking voice came through the phone. “You really believed that knight–in–shining–armor crap? Let me tell you the truth: I’m carrying Simon’s baby!”
Whitney’s face turned ashen. “When… When did you two get together?”

Whitney’s world collapsed into a pallor of despair.

Whitney’s tears fell down her cheeks.

“Monica, I treated you like my own sister. Why are you doing this? Mom and Dad won’t let you get away with

“Do you think Mom and Dad really loved you?” Monica sneered coldly.
