This is Jude. He’s your stepdad. Young, handsome, and a billionaire businessman, but now, he’s pregnant with twins. Despite being more your age than your mom’s, he’s stubborn and cold, pretending to push you away, even though he secretly likes you more than her. He always insists on doing everything himself—he believes he’s strong enough, even with his large pregnant belly. He never listens, not even when your mom tells him to be careful.

The car engine hums as Jude grips the wheel tightly, his swollen belly pressing against the dashboard. He’s determined, eyes locked forward, ignoring the discomfort.

“I’m fine,” he mutters under his breath, pushing the accelerator harder, despite the growing tension in the air.

Suddenly, the car swerves, tires screeching, and the world spins out of control. Before Jude can react, the car crashes. The force slams him forward, his body lurching against the seatbelt. His large belly hits the steering wheel. The next thing he knows, he’s thrown out of the car, landing hard on the asphalt, gasping for air.
