"Ms. Lacroix, are you sure you want to schedule the euthanasia program for next month? Are you sure you'd like to donate all your organs too?"

"I'm sure," Cadence Lacroix replied, her tone bitter as she looked down at the test report filled with alarming results. "Given my condition, I'm just living on borrowed time."

All of her organs were failing with no hope of recovery. At most, she had only one year left to live.

Rather than dragging things out in bed during her remaining days, she would rather leave with dignity and make a small contribution to society.

Under the doctor's mournful gaze, Cadence stood up and left the hospital.

When she returned home and opened the door, she immediately heard amorous noises coming from the bedroom.

Her already pale face turned a shade whiter. She quickly hid her health report and leaned against the bedroom door. As she listened to the sounds of intense lovemaking inside, her nails dug deep into her palm without her realizing it.

She had long lost count of how many women Zayn Ulrich had brought home.

In their two years of marriage, he had brought home different women every day. Then, he made love to them right in front of her and insisted that she stay and watch.

After one whole hour, the noises inside gradually died down. Zayn walked out of the bedroom shirtless.

When he saw Cadence leaning against the door, he ordered coldly, "Why are you just standing there? Cassidy is thirsty. Go pour her a glass of water."

Cadence's heart skipped a beat. For a moment, she thought she'd heard wrong.

"Cassidy?" she repeated breathlessly.

She strode to the bedroom door and looked at the woman on the bed.

Cassidy Lacroix bore a striking resemblance to her sister. At the moment, she was lying weakly on the bed. She was dressed in Cadence's silk nightgown, which had been torn to shreds.

Cadence's hands trembled slightly. She turned around and looked at Zayn with reddened eyes. "Do you know what you're doing? Cassidy is my sister! How could you do this?"

Zayn grabbed her wrist and pressed it against the wall.

A mocking glint appeared in his deep-set eyes as he responded indifferently, "So what? Oh, that's right. She's your only remaining family. How does it feel to be betrayed by the one you trust the most? Awful, isn't it?"

Zayn's voice was icy. His gaze was dark and stormy. "You deserve every bit of this, Cadence!"

Cadence closed her eyes as a bitter feeling surged from within.

She and Zayn had been childhood sweethearts. They had been madly in love since they were young. They'd dated for seven years and had long been ready to get married.

But right before the wedding, a scandal broke out at the hospital Zayn managed. The supposedly respectable medical institution was exposed to have been involved in organ trafficking. Zayn was deemed to be the main culprit and was swiftly sent to prison.

In one night, Zayn went from a promising and successful businessman to a criminal behind bars.

He sent Cadence countless messages and made endless calls to explain himself and beg her to believe in him. He insisted his name would soon be cleared, and he would be released.

But at the lowest point in his life, when he needed her most, Cadence broke up with him and announced that she had started a new relationship with his best friend.

Even when Zayn was charged and arrested, he had remained calm the whole time. But when he heard that news, he broke down instantly and threatened to kill himself. He knelt on the ground and begged the police officers to let him see Cadence.

He went too far with his threats to end his life. Due to massive blood loss, he was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

But all he got was news that Cadence had gone abroad with her new boyfriend.

Zayn refused to believe Cadence could be so heartless. He borrowed someone else's phone and called her over and over. Yet, his calls never got through.

He didn't care about his injury and insisted on going to the airport to find her. Halfway there, his body couldn't take it anymore, and he collapsed.

Still, Cadence left without looking back. She didn't even leave him a message.

From that moment on, Zayn's love for Cadence turned into vengeful hate.

He hated her to the core. After his release, he went to great lengths to marry her, only to humiliate her night after night.

What he didn't know was that Cadence had risked her life for him. Through his friend, she had tracked down the organ trafficking operation. She traded one kidney and half of her liver for the key evidence that cleared his name.

Then, he sat before it and stayed with her for a long while, talking to her."Cadence, I miss you so much. The world without you means nothing to me. Let's be together in the next life, okay? In the next life, you have to live well so that I can repay you a hundredfold or even a thousandfold for everything I owe you in this one."Zayn gently kissed the photo on her tombstone.

    Zayn lifted his head to look at Cassidy menacingly before letting out a cold, sinister smile. "You're living comfortably in the Ulrich residence now, enjoying luxury, fine clothes, and jewelry. You know exactly how all of that came to be, don't you?"Hearing his words, Cassidy suddenly realized something.Her expression turned into one of horror, and she began stepping backward. "Zayn, please don't…"But Zayn had already reached out and picked up the longest scalpel. "That's right. You used one of Cadence's kidneys and half her liver to deceive me. That's how you got all of this."So, if I take one of your kidneys and half your liver in return, it wouldn't be too much, would it?"By then, Zayn's gaze had become fierce and unhinged, like a beast driven to madness. What Cassidy owed Cadence had to be repaid… down to the very last bit!Cassidy was so terrified that her whole body went limp. She wanted to run, but all the strength in her body seemed to vanish in an instant."Zayn, p
