Chapter 16 Anthony stormed into the hospital , his foot slamming the ward door open with a resounding crash . Linda , in a calculated move , had slipped into a skin - tight miniskirt and strutted toward him . " Anthony , let's head home , just the three of us , " she cooed . In a flash of rage , Anthony seized her hair , his teeth clenched as he shoved her into the corner . " You deceitful witch , you thought you could fool me ? " Linda's eyes widened in shock , her voice rising in a frantic plea as she struggled . " Anthony , I've never lied to you . Stop it , you're scaring Tracy ! " He glared at her , his voice a menacing whisper , " Never lied ? Then answer me this : who is Tracy's real father ? " A chill ran through Linda . Trembling , she whispered back , " She's your daughter . You've seen the DNA test , haven't you ? " With a flick of his wrist, Anthony flung the report at Linda's face . " Take a good look before you speak another word ! One more lie , and it's over for you . " Linda scrambled to gather the papers off the floor , her eyes widening in horror at the term ' azoospermia ' . When she looked up again , her eyes were brimming with terror , " Anthony , please , just listen … " Meanwhile , the assistant had cracked Linda's phone , pulling up her chats with Jessica . " Mr. Harris , " the assistant began , " Ms. Brown has been sending Mrs. Harris a slew of taunting photos and videos , even that one from the welcome party … " Anthony snatched the phone , his eyes darting over the damning evidence . Anthony's hands shook as he flipped through the photos , each one more scandalous than the last . Not only had Linda sent Jessica those intimate shots and videos , but there were also snapshots of her and Tracy , all smiles at the amusement park . With each image , Anthony's heart pounded harder , his insides turning to ice . The words , each letter , felt like a barrage of needles stabbing at his eyes . His heart ached . The thought of Jessica seeing these , the agony , the utter hopelessness she must have felt , was unbearable . To think , he had made her drink that mushroom walnut soup , fully aware it could kill her ! Jessica's hatred for him must have run deep for her to cut ties so completely . 1/2 Chapter 16 +25 Bonus Blind with fury , Anthony lashed out with a kick to Linda's chest .

" Anthony , Anthony , even if Tracy isn't your daughter , I'm still your wife on paper . " With a swift kick , he sent her sprawling . " The marriage certificate ? My lawyer just called . You've been hiding behind Tracy's illness to avoid the divorce , haven't you ? Trying to keep the Mrs. Harris title ? " I'm telling you , we're getting divorced, and we're doing it now ! " Despite the throbbing pain in her chest , Linda crawled back to him . " I wasn't stalling on purpose , Tracy is really sick . However , even if we go through with the divorce right now , it won't change anything , Jessica has already … " Her voice trailed off , leaving a heavy silence hanging in the air .
