My husband's first love, Daeleen Reed, is abducted and murdered by the Wood family, a mafia family. The final call she makes before her death is to my husband. "Samuel, Louise's green eyes are beautiful. If there is an afterlife, I hope I can have a pair of eyes like that so I can always gaze at you with them." My husband, Samuel Sterling, is the Capo of the Sterling family, a mafia family based on the West Coast. Instead of getting revenge on the Wood family, he comes home and forces me onto an operating table. "Daeleen says she loved your eyes. That was her dying wish, and I will make it come true." I clutch my stomach and grovel at his feet. I beg him to let me off the hook. I've yet to witness our child's birth—I can't lose my eyes! However, Samuel thinks I'm using my pregnancy as an excuse to not give up my eyes. "You can't be so selfish, Louise. You'll only be losing your eyes—you'll be fine." Daeleen is the only one who holds his heart. I am left with nothing but a world of darkness. Later, I drag my broken body into the sea. I forge ahead until I'm submerged. That's when Samuel goes insane.

Two years later, Gavin held an art exhibition titled 'A New Life.' The pieces on display were created in two years as my vision was partially restored. Many renowned artists praised my artwork.What I did not know was that among the attendees of the exhibition was a special guest. It was a man in a trench coat wearing a mask. He was none other than Samuel.Samuel was now just Samuel. His family name, Sterling, had been stripped from him. He was not wearing the mask to hide his identity but because his face was already disfigured beyond recognition. He had made enemies during his bout in the underground arena and had acid thrown at him. He had also finally learned that my true identity was that of Louise Toledo.As he remembered all the things he had done to me, Samuel finally realized that his suffering now was the consequence of his own actions. Perhaps he should be grateful for my act of mercy, for when Gavin wanted to kill him, I was the one who stopped Gavin from pulling the t

Samuel had yet to realize that danger was approaching, but Daeleen had already noticed it. The moment she confirmed that I had committed suicide out at sea, she immediately fled for her life. Just like when she had escaped back here from abroad, she disappeared underground like a rat.Meanwhile, Samuel spent a million dollars searching the ocean for my body for an entire month, but he never managed to find anything. He decided to give up for the time being.It was only then that he finally remembered about the Sterling family, which was on the verge of collapse after suffering attacks from other mafia families. But when he tried to return home, he was stopped by the guards at the door. "Excuse me, this is the Sterling family's territory. Unauthorized individuals are not allowed here."Samuel was a Capo of the Sterling family. If he had remained as ambitious as he once was, he would have been certain to become the next Capo dei Capi. It was not easy to train for a successor.But e

Even now, Samuel was still blaming others for his own mistakes.Annie stood coldly to the side as she watched the Capo sob uncontrollably. The completely grief-stricken Samuel did not even realize that Annie, who he had ordered to have her legs broken, was standing there just fine.Of course, I had already planned everything. Even if the Sterling family wanted to hurt her, the Toledo family could protect her.Just as I was about to jump out of the window, I was interrupted not only by the sudden call from my Mom but also by Annie, who had grabbed me from behind and begged me not to do it.Everyone had already left my side, but Annie still remained outside of my hospital room to keep watch over me. She was also the first person to notice my erratic behavior and saved me.I explained the situation to my father and finished making our plans. From then on, every word she spoke was what I had told her to say.I wanted Annie to witness the scene in my stead, to watch as Samuel sobbed u

Both Samuel and Daeleen asked in unison. "What did you say?"He could not believe that someone as scared of death as I was would actually choose to commit suicide by drowning in the sea. I had once told Samuel that I was terrified of death because I loved him too much.I said that there were too many things that I wanted to do with him and that I would be filled with regret if I died too soon.He only remembered that I feared death, but he never remembered why I feared death. That was also exactly why he still had not yet realized that I no longer loved him.As for Daeleen, she was shocked because she thought that it was just a joke. She never imagined that I would actually die.The subordinate replied, "It's true, Capo. Everyone, including the priest, saw it happen. We sent our men to search for the body, but the currents were too strong, and we couldn't find anything. And, and—"As the subordinate began to hesitate, Samuel snapped at him angrily. "Speak! Do not try to hide anyt

When I plunged myself into the sea, Samuel had just arrived at the cemetery. He was shocked when he heard me reintroducing myself as Louise Toledo.Members of the mafia must know about the Toledo family, which was the head of the Big Four mafia families. However, he never knew about my true identity even though we had been married for years. On the day of our wedding, my father was still angry with me and refused to attend the ceremony.No one knew that my father was the Capo dei Capi of the Toledo family. Samuel, however, did not believe my claims. He was simply furious that I had ignored him.Little did he know that I had already sunk into the frigid seawater.With time running up, Samuel had no choice but to take my eyes into the cemetery by himself. When he arrived, he saw someone that he had missed dearly.…A voice spoke up over the phone. "How dramatic. That Capo must really love you, huh? Not only did he set up a tombstone for you, he even plucked out his own wife's eyes.

My phone slipped away from my hand and sank into the pitch-black seawater together with me. I would never know if Samuel had said anything on the other end of the line. I opened my hands and embraced the arrival of my own death.The next second, someone pulled me into their arms, dragged me out of the water, and carried me onto a speedboat. I was wrapped in a dry towel before I was pressed on my heart and lungs again and again to force several mouthfuls of seawater out of my mouth. A soft touch then pressed against my lips, and I realized that I was currently receiving artificial respiration. I instinctively tried to push the person away. Before I fully lost consciousness, I heard a familiar voice speaking to me. "You've really let yourself go over the years, Louise."I do not know how much time had passed when I woke up again. Darkness was still the only thing that I could see, but I could now hear the steady beeping of medical equipment.The familiar scent of disinfectants fil
