The Billionaire's Incredibly Talented Wife

"Mrs. Sutton, your baby is healthy, and you are due next month. You mentioned having continuous blood draws, but you can't keep doing that. It's a risk to your baby and your own life!"

Diana Sutton stepped out of the hospital, gently cradling her nine-month baby bump, a glow of happiness on her face. She held her phone, snapping pics from her checkup, texting her husband, [Hey hon, this is our baby.] It was a set of adorable triplets.

[Can you swing by and pick me up, hon? Everyone else has someone with them during checkups. I miss you so much, hon.]

But Diana waited for what felt like an eternity without a response from Johnny. Slowly, the sparkle in her eyes faded, the smile on her lips gradually vanished, and disappointment etched itself onto her face involuntarily.

A year ago, Johnny Sutton found her and brought her home. When Johnny discovered her, her face had been disfigured in an accident, half covered in scars, and she had lost her memory. After a visit to the hospital, doctors determined that her mental capacity was equivalent to that of a five-year-old. So, Johnny called her "little fool" and gave her the name Diana Sutton, considering she had forgotten her own.

Johnny's grandma, Zelda Sutton, in failing health, wanted to see Johnny settled before she left. Some fortune-teller claimed Diana and Johnny were destined. Under Zelda's push, they tied the knot.

Zelda's health took a nosedive again, yearning to hold her grandchild before her time was up. So, Diana ended up carrying Johnny's baby, now nine months in.

Johnny was her world this past year.

Diana, seeing no response from Johnny, contemplated calling him herself but felt a twinge of hesitation. She wasn't sure if Johnny would be upset. After wrestling with this in her mind for a long while, she finally gathered her resolve and dialed his/ number. The call connected after a long while, met with an impatient voice. "Hello? Didn't I say not to bother me unless it's urgent?"

"Hon, just finished my checkup at the hospital. Can you...?"

Another woman's voice chimed in on the line. "Johnny, do you think I look good like this?"

Diana's heart skipped a beat. The moment she heard that voice, she recognized who it was. It was Barbara, Johnny's first love. The woman Johnny loved the most.

"Stunning," Johnny said to Barbara, his tone carrying a tenderness Diana had never heard before.

But when Johnny spoke to Diana, that voice turned cold. "No time. Have the chauffeur pick you up. Rethink about our divorce."

He hung up without any mercy. Clutching her phone, Diana wore an expression of loss and confusion.

In no time, a car pulled up at the hospital. "Mrs. Sutton, Mr. Sutton sent me to fetch you."

Diana got in, the car rolling off. But soon, she felt something wasn't right. The car wasn't heading towards her home but instead veering towards an extremely remote area. The surroundings grew increasingly desolate, with fewer signs of life. Diana couldn't help but feel a rising sense of panic. She didn't understand why the car was headed toward such an isolated place. 'Why is this place so remote?' thought Diana.

"Where are we going? Aren't we heading home?" Diana panicked.

"Mr. Sutton instructed us to take

you

somewhere."

The driver kept driving. Diana's eyelids twitching, an unspoken sense of panic brewing. Something felt terribly off.

She called Johnny, but no one picked up.

The driver stopped at an abandoned warehouse, and Diana hesitated to step out. "This isn't my home. What are you guys up to?"
