Chapter: Chapter Fifty OneAt this moment, what can I possibly say?When I realized that he had risked his life to save me from the vast, perilous sea, any little grievance I held against him shattered completely.All I could do was hold him tightly by the neck, crying as I confessed:"I'm sorry. I didn't know. I was being overly dramatic. I was wrong, Kent, I was wrong..."He didn't dodge. He looked significantly better than moments ago. His low brows kissed away the tears at the corner of my eyes. He sighed sadly, holding me tightly in his arms; the grip was intense:"All right, stop crying. Damn it, I can't stand to see you cry."You tend not to remember things; I don't blame you. Kieran was there all along, yet he didn't mention a single word to you! Damn it, that bastard even planned to run away with you!Damn, what a piece of shit friend! I want to cut ties with him!"With a particularly aggressive tone, he sternly warned me:"Sam, listen carefully. Regardless of any misunderstandings we might have in th

Chapter: Chapter FiftyKieran was talking but suddenly stopped. I couldn't help but ask:"What did I say?""You were confusing me with him. You were tearing my clothes, yet all the while crying and shouting at him, spilling everything that should and shouldn't have been said." I was short for words, I was so embarrassed, I asked the ground to open up, to swallow me whole. But it didn't listen. He paused a moment, furrowing his brows as he looked at me:"Sam, you confessed your feelings for him,"With that, I felt my vision darken, my voice constricted, and the words that had been bottled up inside me finally came streaming out:"Did I also tell you he told me he got tired of our relationship, that he stopped thinking about me since I left?""Yes. That's the exact reason why we started fighting."He gestured to his face. It was only then that I took a good look at his face and saw the injuries equal to the ones Kent had.Now that I knew who he was—the older neighbor boy from my youth—my heart ached for him

Chapter: Chapter Forty Nine"My stomach is growling with hunger, but when a spoonful of food was extended in front of me, I dared not eat it."Doctor, we... don't know each other well."I just didn't have the strength to beat around the bush, so I went ahead and told him.The doctor laughed at my comment. His smile appeared very warm, but his reply wasn't quite as inviting:"Sam, how heartless of you. Kent and I ended up in a fight over you. And now you tell me that we don't know each other well?""Huh?"Oh, right. When I awoke, those two were fighting. Moreover, both of their faces were showing signs of that fight.But why?I remember that he and Kent were good buddies. When Jared's uncle was annoying, Kent voiced his expectation of introducing us to each other with a sense of anticipation.They were such chummy pals; why would they fight over me? It's baffling.I waited for his explanation.Instead, he lifted the spoon once again:"Do you want to know what happened? Finish your food first, and then I will tel

Chapter: Chapter Forty EightWhen I woke up next, I had no idea how much time had passed.The faint, salty smell of the sea still lingered in the air, but this room was no longer the one on the yacht.Without any interest in studying the room's furnishings, I just wanted to figure out where I was as quickly as possible. Therefore, I looked around.Then, I noticed two men standing in a standoff at the door. Their hands crossed in combat stances, each staring at the other without yielding."Kent?"I called out once I recognized one of them, I mumbled his name. I thought I was still dreaming. But when my hoarse voice made it out, he let go of the other person and dashed over."Sam, you're awake? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?"While he spoke, he reached out and grasped my hand.I felt a bit dazed and stared at him, lost. He seemed to have lost much weight and appeared quite haggard.His typically handsome face was now sporting a stubbly beard. His clothes were even more of a mess, missing several buttons.What

Chapter: Chapter Forty SevenWhen I heard Kent's voice on the phone, my mind froze for a moment.I didn't seem to understand the meaning of his words; my entire person was stunned there.He said again:"Speaking of which, her taste is indeed good, but after playing with it, it's no longer fresh. Now, since you've taken her away, I don't think about it anymore.Jared, I hope you two can smoothly reach Berlin. Goodbye."After Kent finished these words, he hung up without any hesitation.And I, I had no thoughts at all. The tears that had just fallen out of fear had miraculously stopped at this moment.What was spinning in my mind was the sentence he had just said:He said, You play with your wife. What does it have to do with me?He said, after playing, it's no longer fresh.So in his heart, I am just Jared's wife.So to me, he was just been playing me the whole time.Oh yes, thinking back, Kent was just nice to me, but he never said he liked me.How did I start to fantasize about him, thinking that he would be anx

Chapter: Chapter Forty Six"Jared, you...you..."Staring at the toolbox laid out in front of me, I was panic-stricken and couldn't form coherent sentences.With this box of contraptions displayed before my very eyes, he combined that with this absurd posture, he tied me in. It doesn't take much to guess his intentions now.But my trepidation was intertwined with an overwhelming sense of shock and disbelief.Back when I used to chase after him, he had always been the cool, distant, celibate male god. After our marriage, he became even more aloof, acting as if I was beneath his notice.But now, why did he suddenly...?Just how twisted is Jared's mind to have conceived such fetishes?Even though my mind feels muddled, I have this glaring realization that his current disposition is far from that of a normal person."Don't look so surprised; you wrecked my wedding, I will have to take you instead. Besides, we are already married," he said, smiling cynically. He must be pissed, I heard that Jade's family called off
