Love Story6–Chapter 1
After the car accident, I became paralyzed, yet I unexpectedly got pregnant.
When Gavin Braxton heard the news, he was overjoyed. Ile tenderly took care of me and hired the best doctors to nurse me back to health.
He
But before long. I stumbled upon a conversation between him and his friend.
Gavin’s tone was full of excitement: “This is a sure win!”
His friend chuckled, “Gavin, by the way, that car accident back then–was that your doing?”
“You really are something. Enduring so much humiliation and finally getting your hands on the fortune. Don’t forget about us when you’re living the high life!”
Gavin’s eyes narrowed slightly.
“Watch your mouth! I didn’t do this for the money. I only did it so Scarlett wouldn’t be able to leave.
me.”
I love her. That’s all.”
The conversation in the study continued.
“All these years, wiping and cleaning up after a paralyzed cripple must’ve been unbearable for you.” Luckily, you caught the favor of a wealthy woman,” his friend said, his tone dripping with disdain.
Gavin Braxton was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke.
“For her, I’m willing to do it all.”
But I wasn’t paralyzed due to spinal cord damage–I never experienced incontinence. Gavin kifew this perfectly well.
I had planned to tell Gavin about my recovery, but now I had overheard this cruel truth.
Covering my mouth, I stifled my sobs.
At that moment, the housekeeper’s voice suddenly came from behind me.
“Ma’am, what are you doing here?”

the words brought the conversation in the study to an abrupt halt.
quickly maneuvered my wheelchair to leave, but I accidentally caught something.
The wheelchair tipped over, sending me tumbling down the stairs, rolling several times before I came to a stop.
My consciousness faded away.
When I woke up, I was lying in a hospital bed.
Outside the room, I heard the doctor’s voice.
“This fall might worsen her paralysis. We’ll need further tests to determine the treatment.”
But Gavin interrupted the doctor sharply.
“No need for tests. Replace all the medication with supplements instead.”
He sneered at the doctor as he continued, “I want my wife to depend on me completely. Once it’s done, you’ll get a hefty sum.”
Hearing this, the doctor could only nod in agreement.
Moments later, Gavin walked into the hospital room.
⚫ I feigned a slow awakening.
When he saw I was awake, Gavin rushed to my side. “Scarlett, you’re finally awake. Are you alright? You really scared me.”
He held me tightly in his arms,
After a long while, he seemed to remember something. “Scarlett, you didn’t hear anything from the study earlier, did you?”
I lowered my eyes and shook my
head.
Seeing this, Gavin breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he started toying with my fingers.
“The doctor said this fall might worsen your paralysis, making your legs completely immobile,” he said. “But don’t be sad, Scarlett. The baby is fine this time, and I promise that the baby and I will

always be by your side.”
His voice was tender and affectionate..
But all I felt was the urge to vomit.
Just then, his phone suddenly rang.
He quickly pulled it out, but his hand trembled slightly.
The screen showed the caller ID: “Baby.”
Gavin panicked and rushed to explain. “Ellie likes to joke around like this. She’s just being playful.”
Ellie Johnson was a college student I had sponsored before my paralysis. But after the accident, 1 discovered she seemed much closer to Gavin than I ever was.
While he was speaking, Gavin had already walked out to the balcony to take the call.
From a distance, I could see him smiling and laughing, his face glowing with joy.
After a long time, he finally finished the call and came back to tell me he had some business at the company and needed to leave.
Before leaving, he meticulously instructed the nurse to take good care of me and not to include shrimp in my meals.
He said, “She’s allergic to shrimp.”
With that, he left in a hurry, unable to hide his eagerness.
The moment he was gone, I stood up, much to the nurse’s astonishment.
Frowning. I said coldly, “Call the doctor. I want an abortion.
The doctor arrived quickly, and seeing me standing, he panicked and tried to contact Gavin.
I looked at him with indifference.
“I heard everything you said earlier.”
“This hospital is owned by Collins Corporation, isn’t it? Gavin’s position as an executive director at Collins is nothing more than my gift to him. Have you forgotten who your real boss is after all these
years?”

ring this, the doctor’s legs trembled uncontrollably.
He wasted no time and quickly prepared for the abortion.
The procedure was over swiftly. Yet, as I lay there, feeling the emptiness within, I couldn’t stop the tears from falling.
Over the years, Gavin had seized control of most of Collins Corporation’s power, and I couldn’t confront him openly just yet.
On the day of my discharge, Gavin came to pick me up.
The passenger seat in his car had already been replaced with one designed for disabled people.
After getting in, I noticed Ellie Johnson si
