My Husband Betrayed Me for His Mistress, But My Father's Secret Return Changed Everything — Part 2

Previously: Cowering in her own home, pregnant Sarah faced her husband's terrifying rage while his mistress watched coldly. But a sudden knock on the door changed the power dynamic forever.

The Hospital Confrontation

While the paramedics rushed Sarah to the hospital, the police took Thomas and Victoria into custody. Yet, the nightmare was far from over. Hours later, Sarah lay in a sterile private room, hooked up to fetal monitors, her heart racing as she listened to the rhythmic beeps of her baby's heartbeat. Her arm was bandaged, and her body was exhausted from the trauma. Charles had stepped out to speak with the chief of obstetrics, leaving her briefly alone.

Suddenly, the door clicked open. It wasn't her father. A slick, sharp-faced man in a tailored grey suit slipped into the room, holding a leather briefcase. It was Mr. Vance, Thomas’s ruthless personal attorney. He walked directly to Sarah's bedside, a cold, mocking smile on his lips as he pulled out a thick stack of legal documents.

"Your husband is very resourceful, Sarah," Vance whispered, leaning over the bed. "He has already filed for emergency custody of your child, backed by medical reports claiming you are mentally unstable and physically self-harming."

Sarah stared at him in disbelief, her breath catching in her throat. "That is a lie! He attacked me! Victoria saw it!" she gasped.

"Victoria has already given a sworn statement confirming that you fell during a hysterical episode," Vance countered smoothly, placing a heavy metal pen in her trembling hand. "Sign this deed transferring the entire family estate to Thomas, or we will ensure you are committed to a psychiatric facility before dawn. You will never see your child."

Tears of frustration and terror spilled down Sarah's cheeks. She gripped the pen, looking at the door, hoping her father would return. But Vance leaned closer, his voice dropping to a menacing hiss, demanding she sign immediately. Just as Sarah felt her resolve crumbling under the sheer weight of their cruelty, the door flew open once more, and Charles strode in, flanked by three of the city’s most powerful corporate attorneys.
