MasukSomeone had sprinkled some corrosive acid powder all over my wedding dress, the one worth over a hundred million. The moment I put it on, my flesh began to burn and dissolve. Blood and yellowish fluid pooled around me as a result. When I tried to call for an ambulance, someone’s mother held me down. She smiled cruelly and said, “You dare steal my daughter’s wedding dress? Go to hell!” However, my husband had ordered the dress from a top designer. It was one of a kind! I struggled with all my strength and shouted at her, “Do you know who I am? How dare you touch me?!” Her daughter, Yelena Stone, then grabbed a knife and stabbed me hard in my pregnant belly. She sneered and said, “You stole my man, but you have the audacity to yell at me? Fine. I’ll just spend a little more to end your worthless life.” My worthless life? I laughed. My hands were stained with blood as I called my brother, Hunter Sinclair, an elite in Jinvell’s social circles. “Hunter! Someone’s trying to kill me! And tell Jacob to get here now!”
Lihat lebih banyakI did not feel sorry for Yelena. She had indeed hurt me, and she needed to pay. I only thought that we were alike in a way. We had both been blind enough to fall for the same man.“Wendy, is this enough?” Jacob ignored Yelena’s pain and displayed her to me like she was some kind of trophy.I closed my eyes and held the divorce papers up to him. “You’ll get nothing. No complaints, understand?”He looked at me in shock. “Wendy, you said—” “I never said I would forgive you. Stop being so naive, Jacob.”“I did all of this for you. Yelena—” Before he could finish, my father kicked him hard in the chest.“Be smart and sign it. Don’t make me force you to. “If it comes to that, I won’t be as gentle as Wendy.”“Mr. Sinclair!”Jacob tried to speak, but my father grabbed him by the neck again. “Are you signing it or not?”Jacob had no choice but to sign the divorce papers. I felt a sense of satisfaction I had never felt before. Even the slightest connection to Jacob made m
My father kicked Jacob hard in the chest. “You monster! I must have been blind to let my precious daughter marry you! “How dare Yelena hurt my daughter and my son?!”Jacob shook his head in fear. He knew better than anyone what my father was capable of. He could not go against him.“Mr. Sinclair, I swear I didn’t know anything. It was all her. She’s the one who did it. “I’ll get her to apologize to Wendy right now.”Jacob grabbed Yelena by the head and slammed her face against the floor again and again.She cried out in pain, “Jacob, how could you do this to me?!”Within minutes, Yelena’s forehead was covered in blood.I stared at the ring on her finger in a daze. Years ago, Jacob had spent every cent he had to buy me that ruby. However, it was on Yelena’s finger, and the sight felt painfully ironic.Jacob noticed where I was looking, and his face twisted with anger when he saw the ring. “Who told you to touch Wendy’s things?”He yanked the ring off Yelena’s finger
“Oh, my god. The gossip in these rich families is wild,” the crowd murmured in surprise.I sneered. “If I’ve told even one lie today, I’ll eat my words.”Jacob’s expression darkened. The sun was blazing, and next to him, Yelena could not take the heat anymore. She leaned weakly against him.“Honey, aren’t you the CEO of Northshore Group? Why are you scared of someone like her?”CEO?Hah. If Jacob had not latched onto the Sinclair family, he would never have become the CEO of Northshore Group—not in this life or the next.“How ridiculous. Everything you have comes from me. You live off me.”“Wendy, don’t go too far!”“Honey, what is she even saying? You’re my husband. Why is she saying that you live off her?”Yelena’s face was full of confusion. But Jacob ignored her and said, “I won’t blame you for losing the baby. Just let me out now.”I wanted to see Jacob’s face up close, so I told them to let him out.The man who once acted so proudly looked like a mess.Jacob felt ev
“Wendy, if you keep crying, Dad’s going to smack me,” Hunter called out from the ambulance next to us.I quickly wiped my tears and hurried to see how he was.My father steadied me as we walked toward Hunter’s ambulance. He was careful not to aggravate my wounds. “What’s there to look at? That kid’s tough. He’s not dying,” he said.I did not like that and frowned at him. “Hunter got hurt because of me. Don’t say that.”My father chuckled. “Alright, I know. You two have always been close,” he said fondly.As soon as the ambulance doors opened, I saw Hunter lying on a stretcher, and his face was twisted in pain.The bandages across his chest were stained with blood. There was not a single spot on his body that was not injured.He was never meant to suffer like this—all because of me.The thought made my chest tighten.When Hunter tried to sit up, I pushed him back down.“You need to rest. Don’t move around until you’re better. “And no drinking.”Hunter nodded right away.
