Without a doubt, Parker Quincy was the reason Cassidy was in the hospital.
It was just incredibly bad luck.
This year, Cassidy hadn't spent the New Year with her in-laws; she had gone back to her own family.
And she had thrived there.
Landing a director role at Quincy Corp, closing massive deals, breaking into the upper-crust social circles, and now, getting pregnant—every single one was a massive achievement worth flaunting to her relatives.
Her family practically worshipped her.
Even the younger cousins who usually shadowed her brother were now being nudged by their parents to suck up to her instead.
It was a fake, materialistic world.
But it felt incredibly good.
She enjoyed three days of absolute triumph before reality came crashing down.
Truthfully, the only person Seraphina Sinclair had brought the three friends to see at the airport was Bella Monroe.
Lucius Vane and Vivian Cole hadn't been there.
Bella was facing criminal charges and was out on bail. Forget leaving the country; she wasn't even legally allowed to leave the city.
Someone had forged a fake ID for her, planning to smuggle her overseas. She had somehow made it through security, but the police apprehended her right at the boarding gate.
Afterward, Seraphina had pulled some strings with the police, allowing Nora a private, thirty-minute conversation with Bella.
Cassidy was genuinely envious of Seraphina's connections.
When you looked at the timeline, Cassidy and Seraphina had entered the city's elite circles around the same time.
Cassidy had to marry to change her fate, grind away at her own studio to build a foundation, and get pregnant to secure her leverage just to earn a ticket to the table.
Seraphina, on the other hand, had returned from studying abroad and was instantly hoisted into the inner circle by her powerful family.
And her original goal had just been to steal a man.
Whether it was ambition, grit, or sheer competence, Cassidy was in no way inferior to Seraphina.
But the reality was, compared to the Seraphina of today, Cassidy was still lightyears behind.
Comparing yourself to others was just asking for a heart attack.
After that day at the airport.
