Her grandpa, who had brought her up since she was young, was now seriously ill, but she could not do anything about it. She grabbed her hair bitterly and was wracking her brain for the huge amount of operation fee.
Her biological father had married another wife and left her, not bothering to care about her and grandpa at all. He only cared about his new wife and the new daughter.

Suddenly, she heard a creaking sound. The door of the bedroom was pushed open and a tall figure walked in.
“Patrick, you’re back,” said Lola, raising her head with joy and standing up immediately to greet the man who had come in.
Grandpa and Patrick Jiang’s grandpa were good friends. The two had promised each other the marriage of their grandson and granddaughter when they grew up. Just like that, when the time came, Lola accepted the proposal of her family and married Patrick.
However, even if they had been married for more than a month now, Patrick had only come back home a few times, let alone stay in a room with Lola.
Not to mention that they didn’t even hold a wedding nor did they arrange the wedding rings as a sign of their marriage. All they had was a marriage certificate.
“I have something to tell you, Lola,” Patrick said in an anxious tone and walked up to Lola with quick strides.
As he approached, there was a flash of disgust at the sight of Lola in his eyes, but she didn’t notice it.
“I also have something to talk to you,” Lola replied. She fidgeted her fingers as she thought about where to start from.
“Alright. You go first.” Patrick motioned her to talk while frowning slightly.
“My grandpa is sick and he needs money…”
Before Lola could finish her words, Patrick interrupted, “I also need money.” After saying that, he directly threw a document in front of her and motioned her to check it.
“This is…”
“Something happened to my company recently and I need a lot of financial support to make it stable. So, you need to do me a favor.”
Just as Lola flipped it open, the first thing she saw was a big word “Transaction” as the title of the document. As her eyes skimmed through the content, which was for her to accompany a certain rich man for a night for a compensation of one million dollars, her expression instantly became extremely terrified and she abruptly looked up at Patrick.
“You didn’t read it wrong. You just need to accompany that man for one night. Maybe you don’t even need to do anything. After that, I can immediately get the money, and your grandpa can also be treated right away.” Patrick spoke those words ruthlessly in her face, as if he was talking about an extremely simple thing.
“I don’t have to do anything? If it is really that simple, why do you still need me?” Lola felt shocked as if a lightning had struck her straight onto the head. Thinking that this situation was ridiculous, she couldn’t accept it at all.
Her newly married husband just asked her to accompany others as if it was the most natural thing in the world.
Patrick was afraid that Lola wouldn’t give in, so he gradually put down his arrogant posture and begged in a soft tone, “I beg you, Lola. You only need to stay there for one night.”
That night, Lola fell into endless despair.
The call from the hospital rang loudly in the dark room, telling her that the treatment of her Grandpa’s illness couldn’t be delayed any longer.
Grief, humiliation and helplessness forced her to accept this shameful deal.
In the evening, when the sky was painted grey by the thunderstorm occurring somewhere, Lola was sent to a luxurious hotel room.
It was dark in the room with the occasional melancholic sound of strong wind blowing on the windows. Only a few rays of faint light came in through the crack of the curtain, accompanied by the cold wind, chilling the person who curled up on the bed.
Lola was lying on the white king size bed with her lips pressed tightly, trying hard to hold in her tears which nonetheless slid down from her cheeks, wetting the pillow.
After a while, the door was gently pushed open, and a tall figure approached the bed with a sense of oppression.
Hearing the steps that were like a hammer hitting her heart, Lola was so frightened that she closed her eyes and her whole body trembled fiercely.
“Are you clean?” The man’s low and hoarse voice came with a touch of forbearance, making it difficult to hear what he was saying.
Lola didn’t respond anything. She only lay there, curled up and trembled.
The next second, the man impatiently lifted her quilt and touched her exposed arm with his big hand.
“Ah!” The cold sensation made Lola scream and her eyes were filled with fear. Her inexperienced and innocent look quickly pleased the man.

“Good, you are my antidote tonight.”
The two entangled and the temperature in the room was getting higher and higher. The strong wind didn’t cease blowing on the windows, adding even more disturbance to the chaotic night.
It was destined to be a restless night.
In the morning, Lola was sent back to her house. She didn’t get to know the name of the man, nor did she bother to, but she knew that he was very strong and his actions were domineering. After all, he tortured her for a long time.
After this incident, life seemed to return to peace. The fee of grandfather’s operation was settled and Patrick’s company was saved. However, Patrick never returned home again.
What broke her illusion of peacefulness of her life came a few months later. To her surprise, she found herself to be pregnant.
She considered about abortion as she fell into despair. How could she bear a child when her life was hard enough? However, that day when she was about to go on the procedure, she broke down into tears with hands on her stomach. How could she abort such a lively baby in her belly so cruelly?
After struggling and suffering day after day, Lola still kept the child. Patrick’s coldness and ruthlessness made her sad every day, but she tried her best to focus on the child.
Until one night, when she was pregnant for seven months, she received a mysterious message.
Somehow, she had the bad premonition about it, but she still opened it out of curiosity. In an instant, the indecent photos on the message stung her eyes.
She scrolled through the photos one by one, all of which were photos of Patrick and her stepsister, Lorraine Nan.
There were photos of them passionately kissing, hugging, having sex…
Each photo clearly captured their faces and there were even several photos in which Lorraine deliberately faced the camera, with the provoking expressions as if she was showing off to Lola.
Lola’s hands shook and she accidentally knocked over a glass of hot water on the table. The sound of shattering glass echoed in the room.
She knew that Patrick had no feelings for her, but how dared he hook up with her stepsister when he was married to her?
As Lola sat there, anger, humiliation and isolation broke her heart.
At that moment, Lorraine’s phone call came.
“Dear sister, I’m in Grandpa’s hospital now. Would you like to come over?”
When Lola arrived at the hospital, Lorraine was standing alone in grandpa’s ward. Lorraine saw Lola coming in and immediately smiled at her; her smile was bright and arrogant, but her eyes were full of disdain.
“What are you doing, Lorraine?” Lola shouted when she saw Lorraine touching the oxygen mask of her grandpa. She suddenly became nervous and fear spread out in her heart, immobilizing her movements.
“The old bastard can’t be saved anyway. If he dies, everything will be solved. Isn’t that right, Lola?”
With a vicious smile on her face, Lorraine held onto the oxygen mask, ready to take it off any moment. Her eyes were fixed on Lola, enjoying the panic in her eyes. She didn’t notice anything strange about Lola since she was wearing loose clothes. It was difficult to see her seven-month pregnant belly clearly.
“Get out!”
Lola was so angry that she rushed over and tried to push Lorraine out of the ward.
“Bitch, don’t touch me. It’s disgusting!” Lorraine pushed Lola back with all her strength, causing her to fall to the ground hard.
Lying on the ground, Lola felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, a sensation in which something had just stabbed her belly causing her to take a sharp intake of breath out of extreme pain.
“Hmm…” Her face instantly became pale and she bit her lower lip tightly.
Lorraine moved closer and stepped hard on the back of Lola’s hand with her red high-heeled shoes. Then, she spoke in a vicious tone, “Who do you think you are, Lola? Patrick and I are in love with each other for a long time. Just because you are the biological daughter of the Nan family, this old bastard let you marry my true love, Patrick. I hate you and your grandpa so bad!
And you don’t know about this yet, do you? My mother is pregnant. As long as she gives birth to a son, the Nan family will be ours from that time on. Ha ha.”
As she laughed, her face seemed to be nearly twisted into a monster. Then, Lorraine continued, “Now, I can let this old bastard die.”
“No!” Lola shouted in a desperate tone. She tried to move her body to stand up, but the pain in her body became more and more intense.
Lorraine took off grandpa’s oxygen mask with a sinister grin on her face before turning around and kicked Lola in the abdomen with her heel.
“By the way, you must have seen those photos. After Patrick married you, he spent the night at my place every day.”

After saying that, Lorraine turned around and strode away arrogantly, a pleased countenance evident on her face.
Lola’s face was extremely pale and there was a lot of blood flowing from the root of her thighs. Her dress was also dyed red as she could do nothing but lie there.
She used her utmost effort to crawl and struggle to get close to the bed. Every time she moved, more blood stained the ground.
“Grandpa…”
Lola whimpered in a weak voice. Tears blurred her eyes and she felt that she was losing her strength gradually.
The pain in her body and heart intertwined, causing the extreme pain she was feeling to intensify tenfold.
“Lorraine, why are you here?” Patrick’s gentle voice came from outside the ward.
“I’m here to visit my grandpa. Patrick, I feel a little uncomfortable today. Can you take me to have a check-up?” Lorraine said in a pitiful tone, her demeanor instantly changing from previous vicious one.
“Okay, let’s go to a quiet place and I will check you up carefully,” Patrick replied in a wicked tone.
“You are so annoying.”
The two of them lingered at the door, teasing each other for a while before they left, holding each other affectionately.
On the other side of the ward, the blood stains were shocking at a glance.
It was only a while later that the doctor found Lola and hurriedly sent her to the delivery room.
“Give her emergency treatment right now. It’s premature birth.”
“It’s triplets. Take them out quickly.”
The doctor’s urgent voice kept ringing in Lola’s ears that she couldn’t completely slide into unconsciousness. She moved her eyes, but was unable to open them because of the extreme pain.
The moment the babies were taken out of her belly, the pain paralyzed her nerves.
It hurt!
“Damn it! One baby is dead!” a doctor exclaimed when the three babies were successfully taken out.
The doctor looked nervous and immediately asked, “Where is the patient’s family?”
“The patient didn’t bring her family here today,” the nurse beside him replied.
“Give me her phone,” the doctor said.
After receiving Lola’s phone, the doctor immediately dialed the number on the top of the contact list.
Lola’s senses were fuzzy and her head was in a daze, but she wasn’t completely unconscious so, she could vaguely hear what the doctor was saying on the phone.
“Hello, is this family of the owner of the phone? The owner is giving birth now, and the situation is critical. There is a dead baby. Please come here quickly.”
“A dead baby? Well, just throw it away then!”
Lorraine’s loud and vicious voice reverberated through the phone.
Out of reflex, Lola clenched her fists and forced herself to get up to protect her child, not understanding what was happening clearly. However, as soon as she moved, the pain in her body sprang up, immediately devouring all her consciousness and causing her to fall into darkness.
The doctor instructed the nurse to deal with the dead baby and was about to arrange for the other two babies when suddenly, the delivery room was kicked open with a bang.
A group of well-dressed bodyguards rushed in from the outside.
“Who, who are you?” the doctor asked, a tremor evident in his tone due to the oppressive pressure in the room.
The man in the lead glanced at the babies who were carried in the arms of the two doctors, and then looked at Lola’s face.
“Take the children away!”
