Chapter 211 Claim Chapter 211 Divorce is Final "I heard Leonard had a girlfriend back in college. Is this her?" "Of course it's true! He admitted it himself. I never thought I'd see the whole 'first love returning from abroad' nonsense in real life.' "Then why did he go after Eva in the first place? Was she really that ruthless to climb her way to the top?" The voices aroundgrew louder, swirling like a storm as I felt dizzy.
I tried to steady myself and leave, but Leonard blocked my path.
"Eva, I don't know whose baby you're carrying, but the Harmon family won't acknowledge it.
"I never loved you. You manipulated your way into this marriage, and I've let that go. But it's tto get a divorce. Let's not make this more embarrassing for everyone." With that one sentence, the whispers around us grew into an uproar.
For a while, Leonard and I had at least pretended to be a loving couple. His injury while savingin Melgrove had made headlines; people knew about it, and even the press had covered it.

Now, people were questioning whether our entire relationship had been a farce from the start. Leonard's grip tightened around Amelia's hand, their fingers intertwined.
Her expression remained cold and emotionless, but something about her gaze unsettled me. What was going on with her? She knew Leonard's memory was all messed up, so why was she letting him act like this? Suddenly, a thought clicked in my mind, but before I could process it, Mr. Harmon Senior looked like he was about to faint.
He staggered toward me, clutching my arm for support.
"Eva, cwithto the study. This birthday party is over!" he declared.
Darius quickly helped him up the stairs, and I followed them to the study.
Only the two of us, along with Uncle Darius and Aunt Leah, were in the study.
Their eyes all fell on me.
"Eva, tell us what's going on," Aunt Leah said gently, guidingto a chair. "Please, just explain." Chap 271 Divorce as Final "Judging by the timing, this must've happened before Leonard lost his memory, right? So, the baby is definitely his, isn't it?" she pressed, her voice filled with hope and concern.
I sighed and nodded.
There was no point denying it. The truth was simple enough. Leonard had been drugged, and I was the one who brought him home.
What happened between us as husband and wife wasn't unusual, and Leonard had known we were together that night-before his memory failed him.

"You two were exposed to radiation, right? And Leonard was drugged too?" she asked.
I nodded again, then turned to lan. "lan, you remember what the doctor said? Leonard shouldn't have children for at least three years, right?" "And the radiation affected both of us, which means it would also affect the baby.
"The doctor said there's a high chance the child could be born with severe deformities. Even if I carry the pregnancy to term, the baby might not survive. I've already scheduled an abortion." Before anyone could respond, Leonard burst into the room, with Amelia following close behind, though she remained by the door. Leonard scoffed as he looked at me. "I knew the baby wasn't mine. Why would she be so eager to get rid of it if it was mine?
"Do you seriously expectto play dad to sother guy's kid? Get rid of this bastard right now. The now Harmon family can't afford that kind of shame." I closed my eyes, unwilling to argue with someone whose memory was so clearly scrambled.
Mr. Harmon Senior looked like he was at a loss for words, pointing at Leonard, but said nothing.
Leonard strode over to the desk, locking eyes with his grandfather "Grandpa, I know you want what's best for me. Then letgo. Do the right thing. "I love Amelia. I always have. I'm going to divorce Eva, whether you guys agree or not. Nothing is going to change my mind."
