That voice… it sounded so familiar.

It was Lydia Snow.

The mistress.

To be honest, at that moment, I felt more shocked than angry. I truly couldn’t understand how shameless and desperate these two people had to be—to sneak into the bathroom of my hospital room, while I was sick and hospitalized, just to satisfy themselves.

I couldn’t comprehend it.

How could a person’s moral bottom line be so low?

For a moment, I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

It was the middle of the night. The entire wa

    “I’m not interested in other people’s husbands. I only like stealing yours—so what?”The situation had already turned ugly, so Lydia simply pushed her shamelessness to the extreme.She looked at me mockingly.“Is it illegal for me to be a mistress? What can you do besides throwing a tantrum here? You’ve been a coward for months, and now you suddenly can’t take it anymore?”I frowned, almost laughing.“Don’t you know there’s a crime called bigamy?”“Bigamy?” Lydia scoffed. “You want to talk law with me, Kaidora? I’ve never lived with your husband as his wife. No engagement, no wedding, no marriage certificate. Tell me—where exactly is the bigamy?”Tessy and I exchanged a glance.We both came to the same conclusion—this woman wasn’t just shameless… she was mentally bulletproof.I crossed my arms and said calmly,“Really? Then every time you two meet, Ronald pays for the hotel, right? That’s marital propert

    Lydia wasn’t stupid.Of course she fought back.When she shoved me, she immediately reached for my hair, trying to grab and pull it. But because I hadn’t washed my hair during my hospital stay, I had tied it up tightly. There was nothing loose for her to grab.Her hand missed.But in a fight no one walks away unscathed.Her long, manicured nails still managed to scrape across my cheek.A sharp sting spread instantly.I could feel the burning sensation—it definitely left a mark.But I didn’t care.Right now pain meant nothing.I threw myself fully into the fight. No hesitation. No restraint.There was no need for buildup between us. No need to pretend. No need to act civil.She had already shown her face in those disgusting videos she sent me.She had already crossed every boundary.So what was the point of pretending?What was the point of actin

    Tessy rested her chin lazily on her hand, her posture relaxed, yet her eyes were sharp and full of mischief. There was something dangerously captivating about the way she looked at me.She blinked slowly, then smiled.“That night… those two were going at it in the bathroom, and we didn’t get to tear them apart, did we?”Her lips curled slightly.“Now she’s delivered herself right to our doorstep… wouldn’t it be rude if we let her walk away untouched?”I understood instantly.How could I not?How could I not want to tear apart the mistress?Even though my feelings for that scumbag Ronald were already dead, completely buried… the hatred I felt toward him and her had not lessened in the slightest.If anything, It had grown sharper. Colder. More vicious.Tessy was right.This was a golden opportunity.If I didn’t seize it now, then I would truly be letting fate slip through m

    Hearing this, I was a little stunned.Deep down, I felt that the “she” Tyler was talking about… couldn’t possibly be me.How could I have anything to do with someone like him—cold, distant, untouchable?Tessy continued,“Then the two of them started fighting. The nurses had to pull them apart. At the time, I didn’t think much about it—why Tyler said he met you first, and why Ronald didn’t deny it.”She paused slightly.“But recently, you said you keep running into him… and I suddenly remembered this.”I fell silent.Tessy looked at me suspiciously.“Think carefully. Did you know Tyler before? Maybe you just don’t remember.”I shook my head firmly.“I really don’t know him. Maybe you misheard?”“Really?” she frowned. “Then who else could those two be fighting over?”I hesitated, then said slowly,“Ronald never told me that Tyler saved me.”“I ask

    For the next three days, I stayed in the hospital, receiving IV fluids for observation. Ronald went to the company during the day and came to keep me company in the evenings. He even told me he had already planned our trip, listing all the fun activities and delicious food around Greenridge Mountain Resort, promising that he would make sure I had an unforgettable time. How thoughtful of him. On the day I was discharged, Ronald was supposed to pick me up. But he was suddenly called away by Mr. Sullivan from Brightstone Development. I was overjoyed. Finally—some breathing space. I immediately called Tessy to come pick me up. Tessy arrived straight from work. She was wearing exquisite makeup, her hair styled in that effortless-but-not-really way—every strand perfectly in place. Around her neck was an Australian white pearl necklace, paired with matching ear

    It’s not that I’m overly suspicious…But the very first thought that flashed through my mind the moment Ronald suggested a trip was—Is he trying to kill me?Marital betrayal.A massive insurance policy.A dead child.Drugged milk.All of those things stacked together made it impossible for me not to think in that direction.My mind instantly started racing.Why now?Why is he suddenly bringing up a trip?Did I slip somewhere? Did I expose something?Or… is he getting impatient?I couldn’t help but think of last night—Lydia Snow’s shamelessness, her desperation.Did she give him an ultimatum?Was that why he couldn’t wait any longer… even for my $15 million?I suppressed the storm inside me and asked casually, as if nothing was wrong.“Hm? Why did you suddenly want to go on a trip?”Ronald wrapped an arm around my shoulders, his tone warm and excited, a
