Previously: When a pregnant, starving woman is forced to eat scraps outside a diner, a kind stranger intervenes. But their quiet moment is shattered when her wealthy ex-husband arrives with a cruel demand.

An Unwelcome Ghost from the Past

Mark stepped outside into the cool evening air and asked if he could join Sarah. Overwhelmed by his generosity, Sarah opened up to him, explaining how her husband, Julian, had abandoned her and their unborn child to protect his family's inheritance. Mark listened in silence, his expression hardening with every word. But before they could finish their conversation, the sharp screech of tires broke the quiet. A sleek, black luxury sedan pulled up to the curb, and Julian stepped out.

Julian didn’t look at Sarah with regret; his eyes were cold and filled with malice. He marched over to the table and threw a thick manila envelope in front of her.

"So, this is where you’ve ended up, Sarah,"
Julian sneered, looking at the fresh food Mark had bought her.
"Eating handouts on the street. I have a proposition for you. Sign these papers relinquishing all parental rights, and I’ll give you a small settlement. Refuse, and my lawyers will make sure you’re declared unfit, and you’ll never see this child."

Sarah trembled, clutching her stomach as Julian leaned in, his voice dripping with venom. But before she could sink into despair, Mark stood up, physically shielding Sarah from her husband. Julian glared at him.

"Get out of my way, buddy. This doesn't concern you,"
Julian snapped. Mark stood his ground, a calm, dangerous smile appearing on his face.
"Actually, Julian, it concerns me greatly. Tell me, does your board of directors know you’re spending your evening threatening pregnant women?"
Julian froze, his face turning pale as he finally recognized the man standing before him. Mark wasn't just a random stranger; he was the primary shareholder of the investment firm holding Julian's company's massive debt.
