I Asked for a Baby Six Years and He Gave Her Two Instead Chapter 06

Overwhelming anger and grievance surged over 

me like a tide. 

I shook my head with a laugh, 

“No.” 

Ethan frowned. “What do you want?” 

“Making a scene won’t do you any favors.” 

“If you hadn’t insisted on taking that job at the top–secret lab, I never would have done these 

things.” 

“I needed someone to take care of me too–not to 

be left alone forever.” 

I dropped my head, a bitter laugh bubbling up. 

It grew louder, hysterical, until my eyes swam with 

tears. 

“You were the one who submitted my resume and 

persuaded me to take the job there, Ethan.” 

“You were already with Chloe before you married 

me–so stop pretending!” 

“Afraid your parents would see your true colors. 

halfway through?” 

“You dumped your own mother in another city. You 

used my name to support your other family. And 

you made me care for your mother.” 

“How can you say these things with a straight 

face?” 

Veins throbbed on Ethan’s forehead, but he forced 

a calm tone, 

“Elena, keep being the country’s pillar, keep shining. 

at the lab, hold onto your glory and future. I’ll stay with my family, with my kids–we won’t interfere 

with each other, live our own happy lives. Isn’t that 

good?” 

Chloe cried as she tugged at Ethan’s collar, 

“You can’t leave us! Tell her, make her go!” 

“If this blows up, what will happen to the kids! Our 

kids…” 

Ethan murmured soothing words to Chloe, vowing 

he wouldn’t leave. 

But seeing I still refused to back down, his face 

darkened completely. 

He stepped forward, lowering his voice to a 

blatant threat, 

“Elena, don’t forget who you are.” 

“You’re a government employee. If this gets out, you’ll be the first to lose everything.” 

“They’ll say a state–trained researcher who can’t manage her own life has no business guarding 

state secrets.” 

At that, I shot up and slapped Ethan hard across 

the face, 

“You’re threatening me?” 

Ethan didn’t get angry–instead, his gaze turned sharper, 

“If you dare expose this, the lab will investigate you first. Your glory, your achievements–they’ll all become jokes. Your entire future will be ruined.” 

Then his expression shifted to one of pained resignation. “I’m sorry. What choice did I have? 

You were always in that place. How was I 

supposed to live? I’m a man. I have needs.” 

“Listen to me. Let’s settle this privately. I’ll 

compensate you, we can part amicably. You keep being the national hero, I’ll stay with my family–no 

interference.” 

My vision went dark. From overwhelming anger, a metallic taste rose in my throat. 

“If you insist on making a scene, your years of never coming home from the lab will be 

considered marital cold violence. You’ll still lose 

the lawsuit!” 

I snapped my head up, 

“Marital cold violence? Ethan, how dare you say that? Who betrayed first? Who cheated? You know exactly what you’ve done behind my back!” 

I took a deep breath and leaned back on the sofa, 

“It’s fine. I hope you’re still this tough in a little 

while.” 

Ethan looked confused, 

but Chloe’s eyes darted as she processed my 

words. 

She called over her tearful older daughter, 

“Sweetheart, beg Auntie to let our family stay together.” 

“Tell Auntie we can’t be separated!” 

The little girl obediently cried in front of me. 

Her shrill sobs made my head spin. 

Mrs. Bennett stepped forward, her 

work–roughened hand closing over mine. “Dear 

girl, we can’t do without Ethan.” 

“You’ve made something of yourself. You don’t 

need him. Can’t you just… let us be?”
