My Husband Locked Me in an Oven for His MistressChapter 1

Eight months pregnant, and the housekeeper's daughter had suddenly drawn up a "prenatal wellness plan" for me.

It required me to sit outside in 108-degree heat for six hours a day.

By the time I was on the verge of my baby's heartbeat stopping, I begged her to open the door and let me inside.

She just sat there eating chilled watermelon, smiling sweetly. "Ma'am, pregnant women need plenty of sunshine. It's good for your health. I'm only doing this for your own good."

The doors were locked. Not a single person dared open them.

I couldn't take it anymore. I grabbed a flower pot and smashed through the glass window on the balcony.

An hour later, Bernard Farley stormed in, fresh from cutting a meeting short, and tore into me before I could say a word.

"Sharon Fox, how can you be so vicious? Do you have any idea that your little tantrum with the glass put Ivy Winfield in the ICU with heatstroke?"

"Bernard, you have time to worry about the housekeeper's daughter, but you can't spare a thought for your own wife and child? If I'd stayed out there any longer, the baby inside me would have died!"
