LOGIN“You will regret all of this, Vick. You will see the true form of the woman you have humiliated. I will not remain silent!” Ten years of Amora Cassidy Shane’s devotion collapsed in an instant when the plump woman discovered her husband, Vicktor Caldwell, having an affair with her own longtime friend. To make matters even more cruel, Vicktor brought that woman and the child born of their affair into the house, tihen cast Amora out after seizing the entire Shane family fortune. With a shattered heart but a blazing determination, Amora accepted the divorce. Yet behind her downfall, a vow was born: this vengeance must be fulfilled.
View MoreLucy grabbed the large suitcase the maid had placed at the foot of the bed. Her hands trembled—not from fear, but from a fury she could no longer contain. She shoved several clothes into the suitcase with harsh, jerking motions, as if every piece of fabric were years of accumulated resentment.“Don’t just stand there like a statue! Hurry up and finish everything!” Lucy snapped at the maid, making the woman in the housekeeper uniform flinch.The maid could only nod, her face pale. She lowered her head and continued folding the clothes in silence.Vicktor remained standing by the bedroom door, his arms crossed over his chest. His eyes were cold, unmoving. His anger didn’t explode the way Lucy’s did—his was silent, yet far more suffocating.Lucy stopped her movements, then turned to face him. “So this is our end, Vick? Is it really that easy for you to discard someone who has stayed by your side for years?”Vicktor didn’t respond. His silence cut deeper than any words could.Lucy let out
Vicktor tightened his grip on Amora’s hand, his fingers firm as if he had no intention of letting her go. Without giving Lucy the slightest chance to speak, he pulled Amora away from the living room.Amora had no choice but to follow his steps, even as her mind filled with questions. Just before crossing the doorway, she turned. Her gaze met Lucy’s—eyes blazing with a mix of anger and disbelief. Yet Amora, for some reason, forced a faint smile. A smile that looked like victory.That smile became the final spark that made Lucy explode.“Vicktor, wait! I’m not done talking!” Lucy shouted, her voice cracking. “No matter what, I will never sign those divorce papers! Never, Vick!”Lucy stopped right at the bottom of the staircase, her breath uneven.But Vicktor didn’t turn around at all. He and Amora continued climbing each step without slowing down.Lucy lifted her head, staring at their backs as they disappeared behind the wall of the second floor. Her hands clenched so tightly that her
The atmosphere during lunch at the villa felt calmer compared to this morning. After cleaning and treating the scratch wound on Amora’s cheek, Vicktor tried to ease the tension that had filled the air. The dining table was filled with simple dishes, yet they were enough to make Kelly eat heartily.The little girl chewed slowly, then drank a glass of water to swallow the medicine she had to take. After that, she climbed down from her chair and ran lightly into the living room, carrying her worn-out favourite doll that seemed never to leave her embrace.Meanwhile, Amora and Vicktor continued their activities by sitting on the villa’s balcony. The gentle breeze stirred the ends of Amora’s hair, and the man watched her face with an expression that was difficult to read. Light conversation flowed, but there was something pressing in Amora’s chest—a tension that remained unresolved.“Vick,” Amora finally called, looking at the man in front of her seriously. “Are you sure about your decision
Vicktor strode swiftly toward Lucy, his voice sharp and firm. “Lucy, you cannot take Kelly! Kelly will stay here with me!”“NO!” Lucy stepped back, clutching Kelly even tighter in her arms. “I will not let that cheap woman poison my daughter’s mind with hatred!” she shouted, glaring fiercely at Amora.“What are you talking about?” Vicktor was beginning to lose his patience. “Stop accusing Elisha without any reason!”Lucy shoved Vicktor’s chest with the last ounce of strength she had. The push wasn’t strong, but it was enough to make him stumble one step back. “Go on, Vick—GO ON and defend that wretched woman right in front of me!” Lucy exploded without pause.Vicktor refused to back down. He moved toward Lucy again, trying to pull Kelly out of her arms.“Don’t touch me! Don’t touch my daughter!” Lucy retreated, but Vicktor still attempted to grab Kelly’s small arm, making the little girl tremble in fear.Amid the chaos, Kelly began to cry. “Dad… don’t fight… please… don’t…”But Lucy a
