Sophie's POV

A month had passed, and I gradually recovered from the trauma I had suffered.

My broken wrists and fingers had been reattached, but because the treatment had been delayed, I would never be able to hold a scalpel again.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't saddened by it, but I knew I had to move on. So, I signed up for a painting class instead.

I wanted to know what it would feel like to trade my scalpel for a paintbrush.

After finishing that day's class, I stared at the painting on

"What are you doing here?" I asked coolly.Zachary stubbed out his cigarette and walked toward me. "I'm here to take you home."I found that statement incredibly absurd.Scoffing, I spat, "Home? You mean the one you share with Melanie? As far as

    Third-Person POVZachary might not have loved Sophie, but he would never have allowed Melanie to do something like this behind his back—especially if it meant letting another man lay a finger on a woman who belonged to him.In the past, he had always loved Melanie for her innocence and liveliness. But now, all he could see was the malice beneath her sweet demeanor.Zachary and Sophie had spent several years together. Although he didn't care much for her, he had still developed some attachment toward her over time.Melanie thought that she had done an excellent job of covering her tracks. So, she never expected Zachary to find out so quickly.A flicker of panic flashed across her face before she hurried over and clung to his arm. "I only did it because I love you so much, Zachary. I was afraid that she'd take you away from me," she explained. "I'm sorry. Please don't be mad at me."Zachary coldly flung her arm away. "You're allowed to punish her for what she's done, but why did

    Third-Person POVThe interns exchanged uneasy glances, trembling as they stood before Zachary in silence. None of them were idiots. They knew that their futures would be ruined if they told him the truth.Unfortunately for them, Zachary saw right through them. With a single look, the bodyguards behind him sprang into action. The interns were beaten until they dropped to their knees and begged for mercy. One of them was covered in blood. Howling in pain, he decided to speak up before the others did. "Earlier… we had a hands-on training session. We were practicing surgical procedures…" the intern explained.Zachary's hand twitched.A hands-on training session? Could it be a coincidence?"Who was the person you were using as a live model?" Zachary asked.The interns all shook their heads."We don't know! We were only brought in and told what to do. We don't know anything!" one of them sobbed."That's right! We really don't know anything!" cried another. "Please, just let us

So, she got up and walked over to him. When she caug

    Sophie's POVMelanie was right. Zachary loved her very much. That was why he had gone to such lengths to have me tortured.Even though I had already accepted that reality, my heart still ached terribly. "This is what you get for being a homewrecker, Sophie," Melanie spat, looking down at me with contempt.I lifted my head and met her gaze. "I'm Zachary's legal wife. You're the other woman in this relationship," I rasped.A flicker of anger flashed across Melanie's face, but she quickly broke into a smile again. "You're really unaware, aren't you? Your marriage certificate is fake. Zachary had our marriage finalized behind your back a long while ago. I am his lawful wife now."After a brief pause, she added, "Besides, he told me you're nothing more than a woman he keeps around to satisfy his needs."Upon hearing this, my mind went blank, and I stared at her in disbelief. Our marriage certificate was fake?I was just a woman he kept around to satisfy his needs?"Did you act

Then, he drove me straight to the hospital.Melanie was sitting on a hospital bed. The moment she saw me, she burst into tears."Why would you do this to me? I trusted you, but you deliberately injured me!" she accused. "You stole my husband from me, and now, you want him to divorce me and never have sex with me again!"My throat felt dry. I had no idea what she was talking about."The surgery went well. I didn't harm you in any way—""You liar! I was bleeding so heavily. A doctor examined me earlier. He claimed you botched the surgery and mutilated my private parts!" Melanie screamed.Sobbing even harder, she cried, "You did it on purpose! You wanted to get revenge on me and steal my husband!"I jerked my head up to look at her before glancing ov
