Unattainable Love

Ruthless

Bias

Winning Back the Wife

Cheating

Revenge

Tragic Love

Melodramatic

Obsessive

Scott Chapman's company went bankrupt because his childhood sweetheart, Eula Saunder, had stolen confidential information from it. Despite having millions in assets, I married him without hesitation. After we got married, I not only devoted myself to caring for him after he was severely injured in a car accident, but also struggled alone to hold up the crumbling Chapman family. When he recovered, he swore that I was the one person he would never let down. But when Eula returned to the country, he had me hung to the ceiling for three days just because she asked for it. I was pregnant, thirsty, and starving. I begged him to save our baby, but he turned a deaf ear. Instead, he hugged and kissed Eula right in front of me. "If you hadn't taken advantage of me when I was at my lowest and forced me to marry you, I would've married Eula by now. "You framed her back then and had her sent abroad. Now that she's back, you need to pay for what you did!" Heartbroken, I went to see my brother, Ken. I knelt before him and said, "I lost. I misjudged him. Ken, I want to leave this place."

Chapter 1
By the time they finally let me down, my entire body was so numb from the pain that I could barely feel anything.I collapsed onto the floor. Even moving my fingers felt excruciatingly painful.The air reeked of blood and something foul. I looked down and saw that the floor beneath me was stained dark with a pool of blood.The wounds around my wrists and ankles were so deep that I could see my bones. The blood had long since dried and crusted over."Scott, she stinks," Eula Saunder said while pinching her nose and pretending to gag.Scott Chapman glanced at my battered state. For a moment, a flicker of guilt appeared in his eyes. However, it quickly vanished as Eula spoke."I bled just as much when she had those men assault me."The warmth in Scott's gaze disappeared instantly. It was replaced by coldness."Someone drag her off and rinse her with cold water," he ordered.My body shuddered instinctively, but I clenched my jaw and refused to beg.All of this was just because Eu

"Eula, is this good enough for you?" Scott asked.Eula's answer was a long, lingering kiss.When Scott turned around, he gave me a cold look."Natalie, did you really think you could use the baby to manipulate me? To force me into giving in?"You and that thing inside you mean nothing to me."He once looked at me so tenderly, but now he seemed emotionless.It was as if my existence didn't even matter.Tears rolled silently down my cheeks. My heart felt like it was being torn apart.The freezing water was like knives against my skin, and I shivered violently....The ache in my stomach only grew worse.I could feel something slipping out from within. It was carried out with the warm flow of blood.I had lost my baby.The pain was a cruel reminder that I was still alive. I still had to endure this nightmare.I wanted so badly to ask Scott if our three years of marriage even mattered at all. What was the point of it all?When the icy water reached my lips, I realized none o

Chapter 3
I was freezing. My clothes were still wet, and the floor beneath me was stained with blood.I didn't know how much time had passed when a splash of icy water hit my face.Eula stood over me. She looked down at me with a sarcastic smile.It had been four days since I last ate. My body was so weak I couldn't even lift a finger.My throat was so dry it felt scorched, and every breath came with a searing pain."Tsk, tsk, look at you. So pitiful," she sneered.She lifted my chin with the tip of her toes."Kneel and beg me. Who knows, maybe I'll show you some mercy."I coughed weakly. The unusually high temperature in my body warned me that I was burning up.Even as I shivered, I clenched my jaw and refused to give her the satisfaction of seeing me broken.I forced a smile and stared her down."No wonder Scott loves you. You're just as despicable as I imagined," I said.Her expression darkened instantly. She yanked my soaked hair and uttered, "You're so arrogant. Do you really th

Although the brutal jolt nearly broke my bones, it freed me from the homeless man.I laid weakly on the ground and allowed my body to be dragged along.The friction between my skin and the pavement brought a pain so sharp it felt like my skin was being peeled away. Blood splattered in a long trail behind me.Eula leaned out the car window and laughed hysterically at the sight of my miserable state.A high-pitched ringing filled my ears. Lights and shadows danced before my eyes.More than once, I thought I was going to die right there on the street.The car door opened, and Scott stepped out. He looked thoroughly bored.He glanced at my sprawled out state with a cold, contemptuous smirk."Don't forget this. Don't ever think you can throw your weight around like you used to."You'll keep making it up to Eula until she says you've done enough."My throat clenched. I didn't have the strength to form a complete sentence. I could only gasp for air.The butler, Brian, couldn't bear

When I woke up again, I had already been transferred to a hospital owned by the Smith family.Ken's expression was solemn while he discussed my condition with the doctor.The doctor said my uterus was completely damaged and would need to be removed. I would never be able to get pregnant again.The infection was severe, and without careful treatment, my life could still be in danger.Ken's expression turned even grimmer. When he saw me awake, he didn't dare lash out. He simply asked, "Are you hungry?"It was a simple question, but I broke down and sobbed uncontrollably.All the fear, humiliation, and pain I'd encountered in these past days poured out at once.I cried like a child. My whole body trembled.Ever since our parents died, it had just been Ken and me.He practically raised me on his own and showered me with affection.But I, foolishly chasing a childish crush, insisted on marrying Scott after a car accident had left him paralyzed.I even threatened to cut ties with

My family was already powerful to begin with, and once Ken got involved, things moved along even more quickly. Several of Chapman Corp's major partners pulled out overnight without warning. The company's stock price plummeted.While watching the financial news on television, I observed a graph showing the company's crash in stock price. I couldn't help but point my fingers down while a smirk appeared on my face.Just as I was enjoying the show, my phone screen lit up. Scott was calling. I frowned subconsciously, and my fingers recoiled from the screen as a wave of nausea surged.Without a second thought, I blocked his number.Scott stared at his phone in disbelief. The rejection hit him like a slap. His weariness was instantly replaced with rage.He stormed back to the villa and demanded to see me, only to discover that Brian had released me without his permission.Furious, Scott threatened to fire Brian.Brian, who had watched Scott grow up, only looked at him with quiet disapp

Chapter 7
Eula sounded like an entitled brat.Scott's brows furrowed, but before he could get a word in, Eula had already hung up. She didn't even leave room for a discussion.Feeling exhausted, he closed his eyes. For the first time, he felt irritated by Eula.She used to be soft-spoken and considerate.Now, she felt like a stranger.Leaning back in his chair, feeling helpless and worn out, images of me flashed through his mind. He could imagine the determined look in my eyes."Natalie," he murmured. He felt mixed emotions.The news continued to report the ongoing crisis at Chapman Corp, with financial analysts offering one bleak forecast after another.The flood of bad news was relentless. Every word he heard made it harder for him to breathe.Meanwhile, I was enjoying dinner with Ken at a Michelin-star restaurant."Thanks, Ken," I said while raising my glass."Thank you for always being there for me," I added.Ken smiled and reached over to ruffle my hair."Silly girl, what are y

Eula looked up and met Scott's solemn gaze. A chill ran down her spine."S-Scott, what are you doing?" she stammered.She struggled hard to set herself free, but his grip was too strong.Just as she was starting to suffocate, he suddenly flung her to the floor with brute force.She hit the ground, and pain shot through her body. Tears welled up in her eyes immediately."It's me, Eula! Scott, how could you do this to me?"Scott sneered and retrieved a stack of photos from the drawer before throwing them against her face.The photos scattered across the floor. Eula's face turned pale as she stared at them.Every single photo showed her in compromising positions with various men during her time in Morinth. Some of them were outright indecent.I had hired a private investigator to dig into her past and personally had these photos delivered to Scott.After Eula sold confidential documents to Chapman Corp's biggest rival, she took the money and fled to Meldoria. She spent months li

"You think treating me like this is going to move Natalie? Listen up. She's already with someone else!"Scott was caught off guard by her blunt accusation. He was momentarily stunned before erupting in fury."Shut up! Stop slandering Natalie!"Eula laughed like a madwoman."Scott, you idiot! Only Natalie ever treated you like you mattered."Too bad, she doesn't love you anymore. And no one else ever will!" She mocked.The words had barely left her mouth when Scott's face turned red. He spun around and yelled at the maid nearby."Bring me the whip!"Eula began thrashing wildly in the restraints. She screamed in a high-pitched voice."You dare hit me? Scott, you animal!"His tall figure loomed over her. With a flick of his wrist, the whip cracked through the air with a terrifying snap.He didn't want to hear another word. The whip hit her again and again. He wasn't holding back.Eula screamed in agony almost instantly. Her voice turned hoarse before breaking off into weak, st

"What do you want from me? Do you want me to go back so you can beat me again? Watch you and Eula act all intimate with each other?""Eula lied to me. I didn't want any of it. I know I was wrong. Come back, Natalie. I'll treat you right this time, just like before.""Like before? Which part? When you hung me in the living room for three days? Or when you stood by and watched as I lost our baby?"I couldn't hold it in anymore. I shouted, "Ask yourself, do you really think you did right by me or our baby?"There was silence on the other end. After a long pause, he finally muttered, "I-I must've been out of my mind back then. But I know now that I messed up."Natalie, please give me another chance. I can't live without you."I sneered. "Allll I want now is a divorce. From now on, you go your way, I'll go mine."With that, I hung up without hesitation and blocked the number.In the days that followed, Scott went completely off the rails. He called and texted me nonstop.The more h
