Plot Twists

For the nine hundred and ninety-ninth time, the system in my mind warned me. [Warning! The lovesick part of your brain is highly active! If you refuse to leave John Miller, you’ll die an hour later!] I looked at my husband. He was scolding me for the sake of his secretary, who was his first love. I once burned down all of my award-winning drawings just because he disliked them. I calmly gave the system in my brain an order. “Since the cause of the malfunction is the lovesick portion of my brain, I hereby grant you the highest authority to remove it. Do the surgery now!” An hour later, John stopped me at the door of the ward. His eyes were bloodshot. “Grace Stone, what are you trying to pull?” I raised my head and watched him coldly and calmly. “Mister, you blocked the light. Based on an analysis, this constitutes an illegal detention. Do you need my help calling the cops?”

Chapter 1

“Stop, Grace Stone! That’s enough!” Infuriated, John Miller’s face turned livid. He pushed my drawing board to the floor.

“Didn’t I tell you I hate the idea of you drawing? You don’t have an ounce of talent for it at all. Nobody will appreciate your drawings!” John tried to grab my arm, but I managed to avoid it.

“After precise valuation and professional consultation, my artwork commands a minimum price of 140 thousand dollars—and this particular piece is worth upwards of 180 thousand dollars.”

Shock washed over John. He still looked dubious. Hence, I called the manager of the art exhibition. The real data was concrete proof.

But consequently, John’s face turned hideous. For the first time, he lost control of himself and roared in front of me.

“At least 140 thousand dollars? How dare you name such a price? No one likes you in Fallstar except for me! People will only badmouth you if you put up your drawings. You’ll remind them that you’re the thief who stole Lana’s drawings.”

He grabbed my shoulders and forced me to look up at him. “I’m protecting you by stopping you from drawing, Grace!”

His grip almost crushed my arms. But I calmly tilted my head to analyze his emotions, like how I would analyze data.

“Based on your facial expressions and sound wave frequency, you’re just angry because you’re feeling helpless. Please calm down.”

John had wanted to say something, but his words died in his throat when he met my indifferent and cold gaze.

He frowned and spoke in a low voice. He sounded quite confused, too. “You seem to be different…”

Before leaving, I glanced at the soup in his hands. It was from Lana Cox. He followed my gaze.

In the past, I would get jealous and make a scene whenever I saw anything related to Lana.

But surprisingly, I detected eager anticipation from him. He was eager to watch me make a scene.

However, I reminded him indifferently, “Mr. Miller, the herbal ingredients in this soup go against the meds you’re taking. Please stop drinking it. Of course, it’s just a friendly reminder based on health-related data.”

I ignored John, who was struck dumb on the spot. Then, I turned to the car and headed home.Unexpectedly, I saw Lana on the sofa the moment I stepped into the house. She was wearing my pajamas and drinking coffee.When she saw me, Lana acted surprised and let go of the cup. I heard a loud crack. She had smashed the clay cup I made with John into pieces.She pretentiously covered her lips. “Oh, I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean it.”While talking, she raised her leg and ruined all the intimate photos I had with John on the table.Then, she walked toward me while stepping on those photos indifferently. She even clicked her tongue.“Are you furious, Grace? But you can’t do anything. John loves me deeply. And I just destroyed these unworthy things. Even if…”I took some photos, which dialed down her haughtiness.I looked down at the evidence in my phone and met her shocked, distorted expression. Then, I said sternly, “You deliberately destroyed my belongings. The original price is eight

There seemed to be no end to the cards. The drawer was full of them.I closed the drawer and turned off the light in the room.I brought my lawyer and went to John’s company the next day. As expected, he refused to see me.I waved before someone got me a lawn chair. I put on my sunglasses and played the recording of me asking for the shares from the previous day. I even put it on a loop.Initially, I had established the company with John. I simply wanted the shares I was entitled to.When the superiors of the company heard the recording, they looked at each other in dismay.John finally exited the building when I had played the recording for the eighth time. He pinched my wrist tightly and forcefully pulled me into his office.He pinned me against the wall with one hand and asked me something, his eyes turning bloodshot.“What do you want, Grace?!”I took off my sunglasses and frowned.“First, shares. Second, a divorce. Mr. Miller, I’ve got to say you can’t understand people.

“People come bearing invaluable gifts to celebrate John’s birthday. Grace, you use John’s card even when you buy a bag worth a little more than ten thousand dollars. Well, it’s great that you’re so thoughtful. But why waste the money?”Lana’s underlying meaning was clear. She claimed that I could only rely on men and that I could not afford anything on my own. In the end, I was just depending on John’s money.When the onlookers heard that, they took Lana’s side and looked at me contemptuously. I calmly watched John unwrap the gift. When he pulled off the last ribbon, the object was finally revealed.The noisy hall fell silent.I indifferently smiled and clapped. “Happy birthday, John. Sign it. It’s the best gift you’ve got today!”Of course, it was not a gift, but a neatly folded divorce agreement.The crowd quickly fell into an uproar. John’s initial glee while unwrapping the gift had vanished. His expression turned frighteningly hideous.Everyone else had laughed at me f

John was momentarily stunned. When he looked up again, he displayed a gentle smile.“Do you have to make such a scene?” He sounded helpless. “You tried to slander me using this method to make me give in just because I wanted to get engaged to Lana.”He stared at me, though the piteous cries from the video resonated in the entire hall. He was still calm.I smiled, but everyone could see the hostility emanating from me. I twirled the microphone in my hand.“It looks like one gift isn’t enough for you. But it’s fine. I can give you a better one.”Then, I raised my hand to press a button on the remote control to change the video.However, John quickly got on the stage and snatched the remote from my hand. “Hey, be good. Stop making a scene. I held this engagement party with Lana just to make you jealous. Now I’ve confirmed that you still love me.”Then, he turned and looked at Lana, who was wearing a gown. He realized that she was grasping her hands in front of her body and could

Chapter 6
Enraged, Lana’s father texted John a voice message. His voice was full of hatred and fury as he kept repeating himself. “How dare you, John Miller!”He sounded murderous. It was as if he wanted to hack John into pieces to vent his resentment. But still, words failed him. In the end, he died from a heart attack. When his secretary found him, he was already long dead. Logically, Lana should hate John for such a heinous deed. No child would remain bewitched in the face of such concrete proof.I turned to glance at Lana, but I failed to catch any hatred in her. She was merely shocked and heartbroken.Her lips kept trembling. She had to take a deep breath to speak clearly. “John, is this… true?”Her bloodshot eyes turned teary. But I managed to analyze the reason for her tears. It was mostly due to heartbreak. There was some mixture of shock and shame in her eyes, but her father’s passing only gave her a negligible amount of grief.I touched my chin and contemplated it. Lana prob

“Please put away your bad acting skills and stop challenging my intelligence.”John had naturally put his right hand in my shirt while I was talking. He kept touching my body and gradually became a little aroused.When I scanned how much wine he had drunk, I also scanned his passion levels. His passion only rose, which struck me dumb. I had been with him for five years. We were by each other’s side for nearly two thousand days. During the initial few years, we loved each other. But later, he got tangled up with Lana and left me with nothing but endless pain.I got stuck in such an abyss and helplessly tried to grab everything I could. I wanted to find support to help me stand up. I gave him my support and tried my best to hold him. But instead, I stepped into the mud and got quite miserable.When I eliminated the lovesick part of my brain, I knew very well that I could never get his love again. At the sight of such data, the operating system in my brain started glitching. My

After my thorough analysis, such words would hurt John more.As expected, his face instantly fell. The previous displays of tenderness and love were nothing but illusions.I rushed out of my room and closed the door loudly with a slam.When I tried to heave a sigh of relief, I saw Lana, who was kneeling at the door while looking teary. Since it was autumn, the nights were especially chilly. I would tremble if I did not put on a jacket. But Lana was still wearing that engagement gown. I had no idea how long she had been kneeling there. Her calves were swollen and purplish. Besides, blood had drained out of her face.She immediately put on a smile when she heard the door open. Then, her face instantly sank when she noticed it was me.When she saw me, she quickly caught sight of the kiss marks on my neck. Her eyes narrowed, and she cursed me with hatred. “Do you really think John loves you? You can’t snatch him away from me. Nobody can!”I chuckled because of her words as a lo

The second floor was empty.I scanned my surroundings and only went to the third floor when I confirmed that it was safe.When I ascended the stairs, I spotted something hanging in a distant corner.The moonlight was dim, and I could not turn on the torch on my phone without giving my position away. After some contemplation, I took baby steps toward it.When I was only nine feet away, I finally realized that it was a human being. To be more specific, it was a dead body. His body was full of blood, but his arms dangled on either side of him in such a way they seemed boneless.I tilted his head and tried to see his face clearly. At that time, the clouds finally faded. The moonlight shone on the shop.It was the spy that I had put in John’s company.“Oh, shoot!” Worry finally overcame me. I hurriedly turned and ran downstairs. But I heard a malicious chuckle before I could escape.“Let’s have a reunion since you’re here, Grace.”Before I could speak, he gripped my right shoulder
