Chapter 73 

Mason 

Lydia disappeared from the spot she was standing before i got down. I looked around, where could she be

I found her assistant and pulled her to the side, removing her from the man she was dancing with, where’s LydialShe moved away from my hold and glared at me

I’m not her keeper. She’s somewhere around.She didn’t wait for my next words before walking to the hands of the same man

I walked around, pushing past people. And then, I found her. She looked uncomfortable. A man stood in front of her

He dared to hit on her? I clenched my list, drawing a deep breath to contain the rage building inside of me

She extracted herself from him, but he was moving to grab her again. I walked over as fast as my legs could carry me. And in the next minute, my hands connected with his face, sending him across the dance floor

I grabbed her hand; her eyes were lazy, and she looked at me as though she wasn’t seeing me

I’ve never seen a drunk Lydia. But she looked so beautiful. I stared down at the man on the floor, feeling the urge to separate his arms from his body. But I let it slide. For now, I need to get Lydia out of here

I know her; this isn’t her thing

Let’s get you out of here,” I said and began pulling her out. She didn’t resist, and from the corner of my eyes, I could see Mia, her assistant, pushing out of the crowd

Where are you taking her?She asked

Not your business. She’d be fine.Since she couldn’t do her job, she left me to step in. She looked like she was about to protest

I’ll be fine. He’s no stranger,Lydia said before Mia released her breath and walked back

Wait, did she think I was going to kidnap her or something? I scoffed

We walked towards my car at a slow pace. She dragged her feet on the floor. Soon, she stopped and removed her heels, and was holding them in her hand

When we got to the car, I opened the door for her. But she didn’t go in

Mr. Woods, why would I get into your car? Where do you plan to take me to?she asked, holding her hand over her chest

*We need to get you a hangover drink. You are drunk.I said

She shook her head, and I could feel she was trying to suppress a laugh

I am not.She said, Then she placed her heels on the floor. She raised her legs, trying to wear the heels, uut she kept missing 

them

What’s wrong with theseshe cursed, pushing her hair away from her face

I could see her face clearly, thanks to the light reflection from the poles scattered around; her cheeks were red

1:01- 50, 2Aug 

Chapter 73 

I don’t say anything for a while. Drunk Lydia is different. I want to see this version more often 

I walked towards her and bent down, picking up her heels, I could tell she was staring at me. I held her leg and raised it before sliding it into the heel

I did the same for the second

You didn’t have to. Don’t expect a thank you.For a moment, I thought she was back; maybe she wasn’t really drunk after all

But when I looked up to see her staring at me as though she was fighting to keep her eyes open, I knew I was wrong 

She stood straight

Call Mia, she’ll take me home.I tried to keep my eyes on her face. She moved her hand to her dress and tugged at it 

Her dress exposed her cleavages; her milky white breast was barely covered

I swallowed. Why would she wear such amy throat tightened when she pushed her chest out

You told Mia not to worry about you, you said you’d be.” 

I changed my mind.She cut me off. I closed the door, seeing how she had no intention of entering 

I’ll just go by myself. You don’t have to call Mia. Let her enjoy herself, I don’t want to cut her fun.” 

She tried to walk but moved to the side, almost falling. My body reacted immediately, and I stretched out a hand, intending to 

catch her

She smiled at me

You are drunk, Lydia,I said. I don’t care about what she said this time. I opened the door and helped her in. I don’t have to force her, as she was willing this time

I got in, then ignited the engine 

open

I first got her a hangover drink. The windscreen of the car was left allowing the breeze to rush into the car

She is done with the drink and has her head flung to the side. It will take some time to be a bit sober

I know I should probably take her home. But I was a bit selfish; I wanted to keep her here with me, so I kept on driving

I drove around

She pushed her hair back, looking ahead

Where are you taking me to?She asked. Her voice was clearer this time.” 

A drive.I said, We did this often back then when we were together.I smiled as my mind reverted memories we had together

to one of the many 

We did?It was more of a question than a statement, and it had come out too flatly 

Was I the only one who remembered the good times we had together

Chapter 73 

I pulled over and stepped out. I walked around and opened the door

It was the top of a bridge, and she didn’t say a word, and stepped out

This used to be your favorite place.I began and then continued, One time we came here and ” 

I don’t want to talk about the past; the past is in the past. This is the present, and I intend to live in it.Her voice was low but stem

She pressed her temples, then rested her back on the car

She was differenteverything about her

You look different,” I said, and she turned her gaze towards me. I walked and rested my back on the car so we were standing side by side

And I don’t know which version I like more,I said

I don’t care which version you like more,” Feisty, I like it

I stood straight and then walked in front of her. Her gaze lowered, she was staring at her feet

Why do you hate me?I asked. She had raised her eyes

I know you have something to do with Mr. Arvin.” 

Don’t make assumptions, Mason.she drew invincible lines with her foot on the floor

You don’t have to deny it. But do you know what?I took a step closer. Oh God, I’m getting crazy. I couldn’t take my eyes off her 

chest

I don’t care if you did it or not.It was true. I may not have evidence of what she had done, but even if there were evidence, it would mean nothing

I know you are trying to bring me down. I still don’t understand why.I said

You are just being delusional.She said. I moved my gaze away from her chest

You are too weak to handle a rival. You can admit, I’m the only one here.” 

But that rival is my exwife. Who has transformed herself and is looking hot and… 

I took another step

I am not weak,” 

She pushed herself off the car.”You are.She said in a challenging tone

My eyes are fixed on her lips. She passed her tongue over her lower lips, I am not weak; it’s just There was no space between us anymore and she wasn’t trying to run away

She bit her lower lips like she always did in the past when she wanted a kiss

You make me weak,” I said, wrapping my hand over her waist and pulling her to myself

said, taking another step

Sat 2 Aug 

Chapter 73 

I expected her to push me away and do something, but she didn’t 

She pushed her body closer, rubbing her breast on my chest

Flames ignited in me, and I felt my dick hardened, God, this girl has so much effect on me

She would be the death of me

You are my weakness, LydiaI covered her lips with mine, kissing her, and it felt as though the fire had exploded within me 

She began kissing me back; she went soft, but I just couldn’t. The kiss soon became hot. My hands moved over her body, resting on her breast, and I squeezed it from the dress

She moaned into the kiss, igniting more flames in me

Her lips were soft, I pushed my tongue into her mouth, my hands still walking on her breasts and the other one on her waist. I didn’t need to push her closer to me

She was doing that already, as though she didn’t want any space between us

When she nibbled on my lips, I almost lost balance

She went done, rubbing me from my trousers. I groaned

My lips found her neck; I bit on it before sucking it, her head was thrown to the back, and her hands were now around my neck. Fuck Lydia, what are you doing to me?”

Worst Fear Synopsis : Worst Fear

Lydia’s world was already a crumbling ruin long before she collapsed on the cold, bleach-slick tiles of Westgate Prison. She had been serving her sentence with quiet endurance, forcing herself to survive each monotonous day. Cleaning floors, enduring the harsh routine, and trying to numb her thoughts had become her way of life. But as she gripped the mop handle, her body betrayed her — dizziness washed over her, and before she could steady herself, the world went black.

When she regained consciousness, Lydia found herself lying on a thin mattress in the prison hospital. The sterile smell of disinfectant filled her lungs, and her head ached violently. A familiar figure stood by her bedside — Nurse Gloria, a kind-hearted woman often whispered about by the inmates for her compassion. Lydia had never personally interacted with her before; she preferred keeping her distance from everyone. But this time, she had no choice.

Gloria spoke softly, her voice calm and motherly. “You fainted during your shift,” she explained. Lydia, groggy and disoriented, nodded faintly. Fainting wasn’t unusual for prisoners — malnutrition, exhaustion, and stress were daily realities in Westgate. But Gloria’s next words didn’t fit the routine explanation. She leaned in, her tone serious and almost secretive. “I ran some tests to see why you collapsed.”

Lydia’s brows furrowed. Tests? The nurse’s expression made her heart race. Something was wrong. And then Gloria said it — words that hit Lydia like a lightning strike.

“You’re three months pregnant.”

For a moment, Lydia’s world went silent. The walls, the lights, the nurse — everything faded into a blur of disbelief. Pregnant? That couldn’t be right. Her throat went dry as she tried to process the impossible. Three months. Her hands instinctively flew to her stomach, pressing against the rough fabric of her prison uniform. There was nothing — no bump, no sign of life — yet Gloria’s certainty left no room for denial.

Lydia’s first reaction was refusal. “No,” she whispered. Her voice trembled. “That can’t be right.” But Gloria simply nodded, her expression heavy with empathy. “It’s right, Lydia. I double-checked the results myself.”

The truth settled like a stone in Lydia’s gut. The symptoms she’d ignored — the morning dizziness, the fevers, the missed periods — suddenly made sense. Deep down, she knew this was no mistake. Panic clawed at her chest as she realized what this meant. Her past — the one she’d buried so carefully since the day she was arrested — came rushing back. The man she had loved, the night she had tried to forget, the betrayal that had shattered her life.

Tears burned in her eyes, but she refused to let them fall in front of Gloria. She couldn’t afford weakness here. Her voice was barely a whisper when she pleaded, “Please… you can’t tell anyone. No one can know about this.”

Gloria studied her for a long moment. Lydia could see the internal conflict behind the nurse’s eyes — between her duty to report and her compassion for the broken woman before her. Finally, Gloria sighed softly and nodded. “I won’t say a word,” she promised. Relief washed over Lydia like a wave, but it was fleeting. Gloria wasn’t finished. “But you have to promise me something too. You’ll come back for regular checkups. No skipping, no excuses. You and the baby need to be monitored. Do you understand?”

Lydia nodded mutely, emotion choking her voice. She didn’t trust herself to speak. The nurse gave her hand a gentle squeeze before stepping away to inform the guards that Lydia needed rest.

The walk back to her cell felt endless. Two guards flanked her on either side, but she barely noticed them. Her mind was spinning, replaying Gloria’s words over and over — three months pregnant. Each repetition felt like a hammer blow. She stumbled into her cell, collapsing onto the thin, creaky cot. The metal door slammed shut behind her, sealing her inside with the suffocating truth.

She stared at the ceiling for a long time before curling up on her side. Her trembling hands hovered over her stomach, fear twisting in her chest. She could barely keep herself alive in this place — how could she protect an unborn child? Westgate wasn’t meant for fragile things. It was a graveyard of hope, a place that crushed even the strongest spirits. What kind of life could she possibly give her baby behind these bars?

The tears she had fought earlier now spilled freely, sliding down her cheeks as silent sobs wracked her body. She wrapped her arms tightly around herself, as if she could shield the tiny life inside her from the cruelty of the world beyond her cell walls.

For the first time in years, Lydia prayed. Not for freedom, not for revenge — just for strength. For the chance to protect this unexpected child growing inside her.

As she turned her hand, the faint glint of her wedding band caught her eye. The ring mocked her, its shine a cruel reminder of the life she had lost. Three months ago, everything had been perfect — or so she thought. Her marriage had felt like a fairy tale. Even though her in-laws despised her, she had still believed love could conquer everything. Her husband had been her safe haven, her anchor.

Until the night everything fell apart.

The memory was sharp and unforgiving — flashing lights, police sirens, his face twisted in disgust as she was dragged away in handcuffs. The betrayal in his eyes had hurt worse than the accusation itself. That image haunted her still, burned into her mind like a scar that would never fade.

Now, lying in that cold, dim cell, Lydia finally understood how deep her despair ran. The baby inside her was both a curse and a fragile glimmer of hope. A connection to the man she once loved — and the life she could never return to.

As exhaustion finally claimed her, her last thoughts were of him — the man she’d once trusted more than anyone. His expression, full of hatred and disbelief, was the last thing she saw before the darkness took her again.

And for the first time, Lydia realized she wasn’t just a prisoner anymore. She was a mother — trapped in a place where love and life were luxuries no one could afford. But no matter what, she silently vowed: she would find a way to protect her baby, even if it meant fighting the entire world from behind these bars.
