Chapter 110 Delaney quickly returned to her usual soft - spoken , innocent demeanor . Beckett looked at her , trying to shake off the unsettling feeling that had taken hold of him . " No , it's just a mistake ," he mumbled , mostly to her but really to himself . " There's no way I divorced Evelyn . " } He kept saying it over and over , like a chant that could somehow undo the truth . But Delaney wasn't about to let an opportunity like that slip through her fingers . " Beckett … " she said gently , her voice laced with pretend hesitation , " since you and Evelyn are no longer together , maybe it's time for us to take the next step ? We could get married . Make it official . " } His head whipped toward her . " What ? " His head snapped toward her , eyes bloodshot and full of rage . } " I said I'm not divorced from Evelyn ! Why the hell are you proposing that stupid idea ?! " } Delaney tried to laugh it off , stepping closer to him to pout and act cute like she always did . But this time , Beckett shoved her away . Hard . She stumbled to the floor with a cry , grabbing her stomach . " " wasn't trying to upset you , " she sobbed . " I just … I just wanted to get our baby registered properly . My stomach really hurts . Can you take me to the hospital ? Please ? " } Beckett hesitated , guilt seeping in . Despite everything , he still drove her to the hospital and stayed by her side . As Delaney sipped the broth he'd brought her , she secretly let out a breath of relief - thinking the storm was over . § But the moment Beckett stepped out of her room , his entire demeanor changed . He pulled out his phone and called his assistant . " I want you to dig into everything Delaney's done lately . Check all the home surveillance , even the surrounding street cams . " } His eyes were cold now - sharp and calculating . He hadn't meant to investigate her . But something about all of this was off . " Before he knew about the divorce , Delaney always played the role of the selfless , quiet companion . She never asked for a title , never pushed for marriage . She only ever said she wanted to stay by his side . } And Beckett knew - no one is that pure . But Delaney was his savior . She was also the girl he had once placed on a pedestal .
