Marcia was once destined for a life of happiness as a wealthy princess, but in this moment, she was ruthlessly struck by fate. She discovered that her husband, Alan, not only betrayed her but also had an affair with her best friend. While pregnant, she was persecuted, leading to a devastating miscarriage that shattered her spirit. Even more heartbreaking, her father suffered a stroke and passed away due to Alan's embezzlement of company funds. In an instant, Marcia lost her wealth, her child, and the one person who truly loved her... In her despair, Marcia made a decision: revenge! Two years later, she returned as Patricia, becoming the most trusted secretary of the powerful billionaire Elijah Sinclair. She vowed to make those who had wronged her pay, ensuring they would suffer in hell! *** (Sample) Marcia grabbed Calvin's hand tightly, her voice sharp. "I WANT REVENGE! I WANT REVENGE! Calvin, please help me! I can't let him get away with this!" Her eyes were bloodshot, her tone rising to a near scream. Calvin felt her icy grip, devoid of warmth. He gently embraced Marcia, solemnly promising, "Don't worry, I will help you!" Calvin placed a brown paper bag gently in front of her. "Open this. Get close to him; he can help you. But know this: from now on, there will be no more Marcia Roberts. Are you ready for that?" Marcia sat up in bed, carefully tying her long hair back, revealing a gaunt, colorless face. "At this point, do I have any other choice? But, Calvin, are you sure this person can help me?" "He's Elijah Sinclair. If he can't, no one can..."

After three years of marriage, finally, she got pregnant!
If her husband, Alan, knew the news, he would be overjoyed, right? And Alan's mother wouldn't come over to scold her anymore!
With this thought, Marcia couldn't help but urge, "Please hurry up. I'm in a rush."
The taxi sped through the rainy night and finally came to a stop in front of an extravagant villa. Marcia, beaming, opened the door and walked inside.
She had planned to be away on a business trip for a week, but now she was back a day early. Alan would surely be surprised to see her, especially since she had an enormous piece of news to share.
With a sweet smile, Marcia quietly made her way to the upstairs bedroom.
"Honey... come on... faster!" A sultry voice floated from the room.
Marcia froze; that voice sounded so familiar. Her hand paused on the doorknob.
"Don't rush, baby! I'm not letting you go today!"
"Ah, honey, when are you going to get a divorce? Didn't her shares transfer to your name? Why the delay?"
"Why bring that bitch up now?!" A familiar male voice responded, tinged with disdain. "Her damned father is still watching me. But it won't be long. Hmph! Don't worry, in a few days, my mom will come over and scold her a few more times. That dumb pig might just hand over the shares willingly!"
The woman let out a teasing laugh. "You're so bad!"
"You like me being bad, don't you? Hmm?"
"Stop saying that! I don't!"
Even through the wall, the sounds were clear, intense and stirring, evoking vivid images.
Marcia pressed her hand tightly over her mouth, feeling as if she had fallen into an ice cave. The continuous moans from the room felt like a knife stabbing her heart over and over, each thrust painfully suffocating.
After a few deep breaths, she fought back the rising nausea and trembling fingers pushed open the bedroom door.
In an instant, tears streamed down her face like a flood breaking through a dam.
Her husband was there, completely naked, sprawled on the bed with her closest friend in an extremely intimate position, all on the marriage bed she had chosen herself.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
Marcia's furious shout froze the two on the bed. Alan slowly turned his head, showing no sign of panic. Instead, he coolly sat up from Kate and frowned in annoyance.
"What are you doing back? Didn't you say you were on a business trip for a week?"
Caught in an affair and not even flustered? Marcia's anger at Alan's calmness made her tremble all over.
"ANSWER ME! What are you two doing?"
This time, Kate let out a mocking laugh, casually grabbing her underwear from the floor and putting it on. "You're not blind, so why ask? It's better you found out. Just get the hell out of here."
"This is my house! My father bought this house! If anyone is leaving, it should be you! " Marcia trembled with rage, pointing at Kate's familiar face. "You! Bitch! I treated you so well! How could you do this?!"
Kate abruptly sat up, grabbing Marcia's arm and slapping her hard.
"Bitch? Marcia, you're the real bitch! Alan loves only me; you're the one stealing him! If your family wasn't rich, do you think he would have married you? You don't know that every night he lies next to you, he feels like throwing up! "
"SHUT UP!"
Marcia screamed like a madwoman, grabbing Kate and retaliating fiercely.
She managed to slap Kate twice, leaving her momentarily stunned, as if she never expected the usually proud and composed Marcia to go wild.
Kate cried out, "Alan, help me! She's gone crazy!"
Alan's face darkened as he lunged forward, grabbing Marcia's hair. "STOP IT! Kate is pregnant!"
Pregnant?!
Marcia instinctively touched her belly; Kate was pregnant—what about her?
She was pregnant too!
Alan looked at Marcia with disgust, coldly saying, "If you're smart, you'll get out of here. Otherwise, we'll get a divorce."
"We will DEFINITELY get a divorce!" Marcia bit her lip tightly, feeling a wave of dizziness. "But before that, I will make sure you're kicked out of the company, you bastard!!"
Hearing Marcia's words, Alan's eyes turned even more sinister. He grabbed her collar with disdain. "Ha! If it weren't for me, do you really think your father's pathetic company could have gotten this far? Who do you think you are?"
Seeing the tears in Marcia's eyes filled him with a sense of revenge. Every time he saw her, that inexplicable feeling of inferiority surged within him. Watching her in this state felt immensely satisfying. He sneered, "Cry? Haha, let me tell you another secret. Do you know why you've never been able to get pregnant?"
Marcia's eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Alan. He revealed a cold smile, exposing his white teeth. "Dummy, isn't that glass of water in every morning especially sweet?"
Kate stepped forward, wrapping her arm around Alan's, speaking condescendingly, "Alan, she's really so dumb!Hey, bitch! Now you know, right? Alan only loves me! Hurry up and get lost!"
Marcia's face turned pale as she looked at the smug couple before her, finally unable to hold back and vomited.
"You two will go to hell!"
Boom—
As if in response to Marcia's words, a thunderclap echoed from the sky, and suddenly, torrential rain poured down.
Kate, startled by the thunder, shrank into Alan's arms and said softly, "Alan, she dared to curse us. I—I'm still with baby!"
Hearing this, Alan fixed his gloomy gaze on Marcia's hate-filled eyes and raised his hand to slap her hard. "You filthy bitch!"
He became angrier with each slap, listening to Marcia's muffled groans, his tone rising with excitement.
"If you keep talking, I swear I'll tear your mouth apart. You didn't know how to scream in bed, but now you're really getting into it!"
Marcia struggled fiercely, but her strength was no match for Alan's. Seeing her fight back, Kate grabbed Marcia's hair, her face serious as she shouted, "Alan, kill her!"
The two of them attacked the defenseless woman like madmen, both eyes filled with frenzy.
The once proud woman was reduced to a pitiful state, igniting a sense of triumph in them.
But Marcia could hold on no longer; her eyes rolled back, and she fainted...
Elijah frowned. "Impossible?" He couldn't understand. "But then... how could you? No, we're going to the hospital right now! The doctors I know are far more reliable than him. I've always found him suspicious. Let's get you checked first, then we can talk about this.""Are you not happy that I can conceive?"Elijah shook his head. "How could I not be happy? But I don't trust him. Let's go to the hospital, okay?"He was overwhelmed with joy, but beneath that joy lay deep concern. If Jeff was lying, how would Marcia handle it? He could live without a child, but he couldn't bear to see Marcia fall into despair again.He never wanted to see her cry. That pain would be far worse than not having a child."Eli, sit down first." Marcia dared not let him take her to the hospital—if they found out she had recently lost a pregnancy, things would be disastrous."The surgery two years ago... Jeff was actually the lead surgeon." Marcia watched Elijah's expression darken as her voice unconsciously d
Marcia leaned against Elijah's chest, yet a slight unease crept into her heart.She still remembered Jeff's instructions—no intimacy for a month. But when she stole a glance at Elijah, his brows were tightly furrowed, his expression serious. For some reason, her heart softened again and again."Eli, what are you thinking about?"Hearing the slight anxiety in Marcia's voice, Elijah held her tightly, resting his head against her neck. His voice was low and gentle. "Nothing. I just think... it's really good that you're here.""Myron is really getting engaged? To... that Nancy?" Marcia traced her fingers over his firm arm, feeling a growing sense of security.She wished she could rely on him like this forever."Mm." Elijah's response was muffled, carrying a hint of an unspoken heaviness.Marcia thought for a moment. "His family has a rule that a man can only marry one woman in his lifetime, right? Does your family have a rule like that?"Elijah chuckled lightly and ran his fingers through
Elijah let out a soft sigh and gently pulled Marcia behind him. "What are you doing?"Marcia bit her lip, feeling a bit foolish for her reaction. Why did she assume Hayden would actually come to blows with Elijah?Elijah, standing tall and unwavering, met Hayden's gaze head-on, his expression calm. "To bring Myron back to Liverpool.""Back to Liverpool? If he's taking that woman with him, then what's the point? He might as well not come back at all! Damn it!" Hayden raised his fist but ultimately slammed it against the table instead."Hayden, sit down." Myron's voice was deep and hoarse. He seemed exhausted, yet his expression remained resolute. "I chose to marry Nancy on my own. It has nothing to do with my mother or Eli. I appreciate your concern, but enough with the arguments."He glanced at Kevin and chuckled. "What are you scheming now? Think I'm lying?"Kevin cleared his throat awkwardly. "Not at all. If you say so, then it must be true." He had initially suspected this was just
"Patricia, I thought you two would head straight to the second floor!" Hayden teased with a mischievous grin, taking a sip of his orange juice.Marcia ignored him, her eyes immediately landing on Myron, who sat beside Kevin with a face as dark as ink. At the head of the dining table sat a frail, pale-skinned elderly woman who was scrutinizing her with an assessing gaze.Marcia couldn't help but feel nervous."Auntie, this is Patricia. What do you think? Beautiful, right?" Elijah draped an arm over Marcia's shoulder, grinning proudly.Gloria took a sip of water before smiling lightly. "Hmm, she is beautiful. No wonder you've been so restless, eager to come home!""That's not true! I'm also happy to spend more time with you!" Elijah chuckled, then gently nudged Marcia forward. "Cia, come say hello to Auntie."His eyes were filled with warmth, a look that was second nature to him in front of Myron and the others. But for Gloria, it was the first time witnessing this side of him, and she
Marcia and Elijah walked hand in hand toward the villa. Since it was located in the suburbs, the fresh air was a rare luxury.A cool breeze brushed against Marcia's face, making her instinctively shrink her neck."Are you cold?" Elijah asked, his voice tinged with concern as he pulled her into his embrace. "I was worried you'd feel uncomfortable if we stayed in the car for too long. Looks like I miscalculated again!"Marcia shook her head and snuggled against his chest with a soft laugh. "Not at all. The air is refreshing, and the scenery is beautiful. But how did you know I was feeling restless in the car? Do you have some kind of mind-reading power? That would be incredible!"Elijah chuckled, gently ruffling her hair. "Your nose is all red. You look just like a little bunny. Makes me want to eat you up!"As he spoke, he playfully rubbed her cheeks. When Marcia looked up at him with a smile, he couldn't resist leaning down to kiss her cool lips."Aren't they waiting for us inside? Le
Seeing the two of them like this, Marcia couldn't shake the strange feeling growing inside her. She pulled out her phone to check for any messages from Elijah. The last thing on their chat was a simple "Good night" from both of them. A faint smile curved her lips.She casually snapped a photo of the highway scenery outside the car window and sent it to Elijah.Since it was still early, she hadn't expected an immediate response. But to her surprise, he seemed to have been awake all night—his reply came almost instantly."Already on the road? Are you tired? You should get some rest in the car!"Marcia bit her lip lightly and typed back curiously, "Did you not sleep? I'm not tired. I've been resting at home these past few days.""Hmm, I heard about that. Why are you so lazy and always sleeping?" Elijah chuckled, then added, "Even though I feel bad for you, my love, I'm so happy that I'll see you soon."Seeing him call her lazy, Marcia instinctively glanced at Kevin, who was driving. It h
