The phone pinged again, showing the same trending topic that had been circulating for half a month.
Luther Spencer had spent a fortune on a luxurious estate. He had planted an entire garden of roses by hand to celebrate his fifth wedding anniversary.
Once again, he announced to the world that his heart belonged solely to Callista Caldwell.
Countless comments followed, and each of them was expressing envy for their love.
“Who says relationships with an age gap don’t work out? Mr. Spencer’s ultimate wedding gift is his hopeless devotion. It’s said Mrs. Spencer is six years older, and it took him three years of relentless pursuit to win her over.”
“Everyone knows Mr. Spencer adores his wife. Two years ago, when Mrs. Spencer was trapped during the earthquake, Mr. Spencer risked his life to rescue her.
“He was covered in injuries when he was finally pulled out, and yet he was more set on comforting his terrified wife. The news even showed him holding her, and both of them were in tears.”
“And last year, when a media outlet mocked Mrs. Spencer for her age and claimed she couldn’t have children, Mr. Spencer sued them into bankruptcy.
“He even made a public statement saying he didn’t care whether they had children or not, but he would never allow anyone to hurt his wife over it.”
Callista couldn’t help but force a bitter smile as she read these comments.
Luther truly did ensure no one could hurt her. Yet every pain she ever felt was dealt by him.
When Callista first confirmed her pregnancy, she had been eager to share the good news with Luther. But then she received a message from an unknown sender.
It was a photograph of a pregnant woman.
The young woman’s smile was radiant as she posed for the pregnancy photograph. Meanwhile, Luther knelt beside her. He was reverently kissing her rounded belly. His face was filled with joy and contentment.
Tears streamed down Callista’s face.
The ultrasound image she had suffered through six rounds of IVF to obtain now felt like a cruel joke.
