19 Liam!" My heart ached with pain and self-blame. I hadn't protected him. Benjamin immediately said, "Quick, I'll take you to the hospital." I didn't say a word. I just scooped Liam up and got into the car. I knew the priority was getting him treated ASAP. Benjamin drove like a maniac, but luckily, Liam was fine. When he opened his eyes, he suddenly burst out crying, "Wah! "Aunt Ella, I remember everything! I remember Mom and Dad!" Mr. and Mrs. Davis, who were waiting by his side, were practically crying tears of joy. I hadn't expected Benjamin to accidentally help Liam regain his memories. Talk about a lucky break. But my stance wouldn't change. "Benjamin, there's no way we can ever be together again." 'Don't say that." Benjamin felt my coldness, my words, pierce his heart like knives. "I won't give up on us..." "What? You won't give up on my wife and the mother of my child? You look decent, but you're really that immoral?" A pair of long, well-defined hands took mine. I paused, then realized, "This is my husband, Noah Davis." He's Liam's uncle, Daniel's younger brother. Since he was willing to play along, I knew I had to commit too. I put my hand on my stomach. "A little over a month pregnant. Not showing yet, but it's twins." Then I added, "And these ones are actually mine." Benjamin practically choked, his voice cracking. "How is that possible...?" Noah just smirked. "Well, why don't you wait until our babies are a month old and come over for drinks? Seriously, thanks. Thanks for having no taste, because that's how I got such an amazing wife. I'm never letting go, not in a million years. You're out of luck." Benjamin felt like he was being flayed alive. The pain was unbearable. He still just kept repeating, stiffly, "It's not possible..." Noah tilted his head. "Hey, babe, wanna give him a little kiss for the show?" After a slight pause, I leaned in and kissed Noah's lips. The sight in front of him stabbed Benjamin deep. It was actually true! I fell for someone else, and with someone else... had a baby! Benjamin desperately wanted me back, no matter what. But he had personally shattered my happiness once, wounded me so deeply. This time, he just couldn't bear to destroy my happiness again... Benjamin realized he loved me more than he'd ever imagined. That kind of love made him unwilling to take, unwilling to force, he just wanted me to be happy. Benjamin spoke softly. "Ellie, if he ever treats you badly, I'll always be here." But only he heard it. I didn't even spare him a glance. Benjamin watched me, hungrily, even as I was kissing another man. Finally, he left, utterly devastated. Only when his figure vanished from sight did I blush and pull away from Noah. Thanks for the help." Noah's face was flushed too, his ears even redder. He gazed deeply at me. "Anyone else? No way I'd help. But you kinda stole my first kiss, so... you could, like, take responsibility for it, you know?" Discover our latest featured short drama reel. Watch now and enjoy the story!
