Chapter 1

작가: Nimbus
My husband, Adam Herring, was dressed in a suit as he stood outside the metal gates on the day I was released from prison.

Intense hatred burned within me when I spotted him. I wouldn't have been locked behind bars if he hadn't given a false statement all those years ago.

He hadn't visited me even once in the last three years. I couldn't help but wonder what he was trying to pull now with this act.

"What are you doing here?" I snapped.

Adam just smiled at my frosty attitude. He slowly stepped forward with his hands behind his back, saying, "Of course, I'm here to pick you up, my dear wife."

He stood before me and smoothed out the wrinkles on my collar. "It's a special day today. I came to pick you up so that we can celebrate it together."

I was just about to reject him when he raised his hand, prompting two black-clad bodyguards to rush out of the car and flank me.

"Let's go, sweetheart," Adam said, offering his hand to me with a smile.

I knew that rejecting him wasn't an option. I took a deep breath and slipped into the car.

Adam kept his head down and scrolled through his phone during the car ride, showing no signs of wanting to talk to me. I was more than happy to remain quiet as I thought about how to divorce him.

When we reached the villa, I noticed that the lawn was covered in fresh flowers and floral arches. A photo of Adam and his assistant, Lindsey York, was placed outside the door to welcome the guests.

It turned out that the so-called special day Adam mentioned was his and Lindsey's wedding ceremony.

My anger boiled over. I couldn't keep my loathing in check anymore and took all my frustrations out on Adam. "What is the meaning of this, Adam?"

Adam let out a contemptuous laugh. The gentle expression on his face was swiftly replaced by deep disdain. "Did you really think that a convict like you deserves to be with someone as wealthy and powerful as me, Robin Smith?"

I was dragged out of the car by a bodyguard. Everyone's attention turned to me.

"Isn't that the convict? She's been released from prison?"

"Tch. It makes me sick seeing someone as despicable as her on such a happy occasion."

Lindsey, who was dressed in a wedding dress, strode toward me. She could barely keep the glee on her face in check.

"Oh my. You're so open-minded, Robin. I didn't expect you to be so excited about attending my wedding to Adam immediately after being released from prison. Thank you so much for coming."

    Adam slapped me hard across the face. "It's all your fault!" he exclaimed. "Why didn't you just die in prison? If you had died then, my precious Lindsey wouldn't have had to suffer so much. Do you prefer sweet or salty? I'll let you choose. Do you see how kind I am?"He waved his hand, prompting one of his lackeys to pull open a black curtain. A few vicious-looking dogs darted forward and bared their fangs at me."What do you think? Do you like the dogs I found for you? Didn't you tell me that you wanted to get a dog after we got married? I'll grant your wish."He suddenly burst into laughter after he was done speaking. He then used the knife to slice my clothes open, immediately getting excited when he laid eyes on my exposed skin.Taking advantage of his momentary distraction, I didn't hesitate for even a second as I shot to my feet and rammed my head into his nose, breaking it. I then sprinted toward the exit as fast as my legs could take me.Adam's lackeys chased after me. T

    A faint smile stretched across my lips. I never could have imagined that Mom and I would be able to sit together and have a peaceful heart-to-heart one day.I planned to return to Raineria with Mom after I made a full recovery. I didn't want to have anything to do with Adam or Lindsey for the rest of my life.However, although I had let them off the hook, it seemed that Adam wasn't willing to let go of me just yet.Lindsey had only managed to elevate her status by relying on Adam. As a result, she'd offended countless people due to her arrogance. Even her own family had suffered plenty at her hands.The Yorks refused to let a golden opportunity slip through their fingers.As expected, Lindsey wasn't even able to make it to the hospital and was taken away by the York family that same night. The Yorks were much crueler compared to the Smiths when it came to torturing someone. Although Lindsey was their daughter, even she couldn't escape their wrath.The doors to the York residence

    "I'm begging you, Robin. Please have mercy on me," Adam said. "After all, we were married once."His sincerity was cheap and repulsive."Married?" I repeated, glancing at the fake marriage certificates on the ground that had been soaked in wine and trampled on dozens of times with a smile. "Are you referring to those scrap papers, Mr. Adam? Have you already forgotten your own words? What happened between the two of us was the result of my own youthful naivety. I let myself get bitten by a rabid stray. There's nothing more to it."I then walked over to Mom's side and respectfully said, "You can do whatever you want to them, Mom."Mom nodded, prompting the bodyguards to surge forward and attack Adam and James with their metal bats.Meanwhile, Lindsey was too scared to curse me out anymore, so she switched targets to Adam."It's all your fault. I wouldn't be in this predicament if you weren't so immoral and insisted on seducing me. I won't let you off the hook even after I turn in

    Mom looked at Freya, who had fallen to her knees and was trembling in fear, and coldly asked, "I heard that the Herring family is very influential in Gramino. Apparently, they can hurt and kill the heiress of the Smith family whenever they please, huh?"Freya lowered her head even more. Her voice was shaking when she stammered, "I-It's my fault for failing to teach my son properly. Please punish us as you see fit, Mrs. Smith. "But I only have one child. I'm willing to give up my own life to compensate Ms. Smith and appease your anger, Mrs. Smith. I just hope that you'll have mercy on my son."Adam's eyes immediately reddened. But it seemed that he still hadn't fully grasped just how terrifying Raineria's Smith family was. He crawled over to Freya and grabbed her, saying, "We're in Gramino, Mom. Why are you begging her? The Herring and Daley families are the ones who call the shots in Gramino. If you and Grandpa join forces, even ten Smith families wouldn't be able to do anything

    As expected, there was a stark difference between being loved and unloved. However, Adam and Lindsey had no right to sacrifice me for the sake of their relationship.Just then, the deafening roar of an engine came from beyond the door. A few seconds later, an intimidating man stormed into the room. He pulled Adam aside before slapping Lindsey hard across her face."Did you really think a lowly wretch like you has the right to cling to the Herring family?" James Herring demanded.Adam hastily grabbed his father's leg, exclaiming, "I'm begging you, Dad. Please don't hurt her anymore. I truly love her and can't live without her."I had fallen out of love with Adam ages ago, but I couldn't help but feel a little bitter as I watched him plead for Lindsey. I wasn't being foolish, and I harbored no expectations of him. I just thought that it was unfair since he had betrayed me even though I had treated him so well and loved him with all my heart.Having run out of patience, James rolle

    The people who had been boldly and arrogantly insulting me froze in an instant. Every single one of them had a gun barrel pressed to the back of their heads.The Smith family's butler, Jordan Shawcross, hurried toward me and helped me to my feet. He then respectfully nodded at me. "According to family rules, everyone who offended you will be flogged as punishment, Ms. Smith. They will also have to give you double the compensation since you were harmed."I nodded, causing the guests to scatter in all directions in terror in an attempt to flee the scene. I shot a look at Jordan, who immediately understood my intentions and raised his voice to bark an order. "Don't let any of them get away. Teach them a lesson they'll never forget about the consequences of offending Raineria's Smith family."The bodyguards, who were clad in suits, pulled out whips that were made of ox tail bone and metal beads from behind their backs. When they swung the whips down in unison, Adam's and Lindsey's b
