Mag-log inEveryone knew I was the man the richest woman in Tova City adored most. She spoiled me constantly, giving me everything I wanted and following my every lead. One day, after waking up from a nap, I found myself tied up at an auction house. On the stage sat my wife, surrounded by her group of friends. One of them laughed and asked, "Sora, how did you find time to bring Damien out today? Everyone says you're so obsessed with your husband Cleo now that you don't have time for Damien anymore." Sora looked at the man next to her before expressing wryly, "Cleo hasn't been feeling well lately, so I've been home taking care of him. Damien's been throwing a fit about it, so I figured I'd make time to bring him out today." I squirmed desperately, trying to get Sora's attention so she would help me. She finally noticed me, but all she did was slowly raise her bidding sign. "Number nine won't stop squirming. He looks like a real handful. One million dollars! I'm picking him."

I’ll give you whatever you want!”Damien looked completely haggard and stank like a garbage dump. It seemed like he had completely lost his mind.He shouted brazenly, “Bring Sora to me! If she doesn’t come, I’ll kill him!”My mother immediately agreed to his terms, “Alright, I'll bring her to you right away, just don’t hurt my son…”Then, Damien forced me into the nave of the church with the dagger still pressed against my neck. He snarled viciously. “You sure are a lucky bastard! I can’t believe you survived last time!”I carefully weighed my words and even had to control my breathing so I wouldn’t accidentally upset the madman. I knew he had nothing to lose, which only made him more dangerous, but I couldn’t say the same for myself. I had parents who loved me and plenty more life to live.“Mr. Rockwell, I have no grudge against you. We’re both victims of that wretc
Sora looked at me affectionately. "Cleo, I'm willing to accept any punishment as long as you come back to me."I rebuked her, “What you’ve done cannot be erased, no matter how much I punish you!”In recent nights, I was haunted by nightmares of finding myself naked and tied to the stage where I was humiliated endlessly. I was thoroughly traumatized by what happened that day.I raised my hand and slapped her across the face with all my might. "I will never forgive you! That’s a fact!”Unexpectedly, Sora abandoned her pride and threw herself at my feet.She told me she knew Damien before she even knew me. Back then, they were young, innocent, and quickly caught feelings for each other. However, her parents thought Damien came from a relatively average background and couldn't possibly boost Sora’s career.So, they made her attend my birthday party hosted by my parents. At first, she only went to keep her parents happy. However, when she arrived, she fell in love with me at first sig
When my mother expressed her support for me, I felt an urge to cry. I knew that no matter what happened, my parents would always be my greatest pillar of support.Meanwhile, Sora continued to beg for my forgiveness.I was beginning to be annoyed by her at this point. I turned away from her and pulled the blanket over myself.Half an hour later, my parents came rushing into the ward. The moment my mother met Sora, my mother slapped Sora several times across the face and dragged her out while howling, "You shameless woman! Get out of here, get as far away as possible! We don't want to see you around here!"However, Sora was very stubborn and refused to leave. Left without a choice, my father resorted to brute force and kicked her out of the ward.After they dealt with Sora, my mother came to me. She broke down the moment she saw the way my body was riddled with scars.“Cleo, my son, you suffered so much.”When I rest against my mother's chest, all the pain, fear, and humiliation a
Sora’s legs were trembling when she walked inside the room. After she brushed aside my hair and managed to get a clear look at my face, she cried out.“Cleo!”She wanted to hug me, but upon noticing how bruised and bloodied my body had become, she was hesitant to touch me. She ended up removing her coat and wrapping it around me before taking me in her arms and breaking down into hysterical sobs.Meanwhile, Edmund and her friends, who trailed behind her, were equally horrified by what they saw.“How could this happen? How could that man on stage be Cleo?”“How did they manipulate Sora into torturing Cleo? This is too evil!”When they looked at how I was wrapped in the hysterical Sora’s arms, they felt sympathy for her.That was when Edmund came to me and crouched over me to check my breath. Shortly after, he cried out excitedly, “Mrs. Vanderbilt, he’s still breathing! We must get him to the hospital right away!”Sora was still grieving when she heard him. She placed her finger
