Chapter 1 – Until You Say Sorry Novel

Niamh Delgado stepped out of the hospital, clutching the test results with trembling hands. Tears welled up in her eyes, but it was unclear whether they were tears of joy or sadness.

“Miss Delgado, you’re pregnant,” echoed the doctor’s words in her mind.

Three months ago, she had married Kendrick Waldburg, the top young master from a prestigious family that everyone in this city admired.

On her wedding day, every woman in the city was green with envy. Niamh herself believed she was the happiest and luckiest woman alive.

Ever since she first met Kendrick at the age of ten, a seed had been planted in her heart. She had worked tirelessly for twelve years to better herself, just to catch another glimpse of him in the crowd.

She always felt like they belonged to different worlds. She was like a wild child raised amidst ruins. How could she ever have a connection with a man like him?

However, it was unsure if she had been blessed by God, or if the God of destiny was fooling around with her. Three months ago. she attended her friend’s birthday party. The next morning, when she woke up. she saw Kendrick lying next to her.

The red stain on the pristine sheet looked extremely eye-catching. It described what had happened between her and Kendrick the night before.

Before she could comprehend the situation, there was a knock on the door followed by a group of reporters that blocked the exit. They could not wait to publish the news of Kendrick having spent the night with a mysterious woman.

The Waldburgs were the most distinguished family in Glendale. Evidently, they were an aristocratic family and had a literary reputation. Old Master Waldburg was an old-fashioned man. After he found out about it, he announced Kendrick and Niamh’s wedding immediately.

It was like a dream to Niamh. However, it was not a good dream.

Kendrick did not love her at all. Instead, he despised her. He hated her. He hated her for existing and having caused him to let down his beloved woman, Nevaeh Delgado. It has to be said that Nevaeh Delgado was also Niamh’s beloved sister.

Nevertheless. Niamh gathered up the courage to call Kendrick.

Without a surprise, her call was declined. Thus, she could only timidly send a text over to tell him that she had something to say and was hoping he could come home that night.

Their marriage was now three months old, yet he had never spent a night at home. Niamh would always be alone in the bedroom, and she knew very well where he spent his nights at.

He had not picked up his phone, and he was not replying to the text. Hence. Niamh’s heart went cold: she knew Kendrick would not come home tonight as well.

With that being said, she took a shower and was about to rest when the door was slammed open violently with a loud bang.

She lifted her head and was alarmed when she saw his frigid yet handsome face. Her heart started beating out of control.

“Kendrick. you’re home.” She cautiously called out his name. There was a small smile on her clean face.

Nonetheless, when she approached him, the man grabbed her arm and roughly threw her on the bed.

The joints of his fingers were distinct as he forcefully pinched Niamh’s chin. His eyes were filled with drunkenness and rage.

“Niamh, do you like me that much? To the point that you climbed into my bed by using such despicable methods, huh?” The man’s voice was alluring. There was a hint of mockery and hatred in his voice.

Her face turned pale as she looked at the man she had loved for a dozen years while her heart throbbed with pain.

“Kendrick, you’ve misunderstood me…”

“Misunderstood you?” The man looked at her in contempt and chuckled deeply. “Niamh. why are you still pretending?”

After he said that…

The next day. Niamh woke up from her sleep.

Before she was fully conscious. a box of contraceptive pills was thrown at her.

“Eat this.”

Niamh lifted her head and saw that Kendrick was already fully clothed. He looked cold and elegant. completely different from the violent devil he had been the night before.

Looking at the box of contraceptive pills. Niamh’s heart started to tremble.

She was already pregnant and should not be eating contraceptive pills. It would cause the baby to become deformed.

“Why are you not eating? Do you want me to feed you?”

When Kendrick saw that Niamh was not moving. he was slightly agitated.

“Niamh, I’m telling you. Don’t even think about having my child. You’re just a shameless lowlife who would bite the hand that feeds you. You do not deserve to have my child!”

The man’s words struck Niamh’s heart.

It was already summer, but Niamh could feel a cold breeze invading her heart violently.

She had thought that the child would be the breakthrough to their relationship. but it looked like she had been too naive.

Now, she did not even have the courage to tell the man that she was pregnant with his child.

Thus. under Kendrick’s cold and watchful gaze, she had no choice. She took out a pill and pretended to swallow it. In reality, she hid the pill under her tongue.

Niamh felt guilty. She was scared that Kendrick would see through her. However, at this time. his phone rang.

Kendrick looked at the caller ID and answered the call without hesitating. Immediately. His eyebrows knitted together.

“What? Nevaeh tried to kill herself? I’m coming now!”

Niamh was shocked by the news. Nevaeh had tried to kill herself?

She ignored the discomfort in her body and cleaned herself up quickly. Then, she put on a random piece of clothing and ran downstairs.

Kendrick had started the car and was about to drive away. However, the door of the passenger seat suddenly flew open.

“Take your filthy hand away. Who permitted you to sit in my car?”

The man’s cold and heartless words caused Niamh to quickly take her hand away. She was as lowly as dirt whenever she looked at Kendrick.

“Kendrick. I’m worried about Nevaeh. Let me go with you.”

“You’re worried? Shouldn’t you be the happiest if Nevaeh has died?”

He looked at her coldly with despise in his eyes. Then, he stepped on the gas.

Niamh’s face was white. After standing in a daze for a few seconds. she called a car and tailed Kendrick’s car.

In City Center Hospital, Niamh followed Kendrick to a room.

In there, she watched with a worried look on her face as Kendrick walked toward the bed. At this moment. Nevaeh could be seen sitting on the bed with a pale face. Her eyes were wet. and she looked upset.

However, it was fortunate that she was not in danger. Niamh let out a sigh of relief.

When Nevaeh saw Kendrick, her face fell. She fell into his arms devastatingly.

“Kendrick…”

She called out Kendrick’s name sweetly and told him her grievances while being wrapped in his arms.
