When my younger sister, Paige Nielson, was three months pregnant, she was struck by a car, killing her and her unborn baby on the spot. My CEO wife, Christina Ashmore, vowed vengeance on the driver; that he shall pay the price with his own life. But when she found out that the accused is actually Roland Burstyn, her first love who had disappeared for the past seven years, she decided to sign the letter of forgiveness on my behalf. Afraid that I might secretly sue Roland once again, Christina had me admitted into a psychiatric hospital. Throughout the next three years, I had six ribs broken by others, not to mention I lost an eye as well. When the psychiatric hospital is found to not have all legal credentials that can keep it running, I'm finally released from its confines. When Christina and I meet again, she pats me off-handedly on the shoulder. "I'm only able to reunite with Roland after so long, so I can't handle the pain of losing him again. Anyway, I already bought Paige the best graveyard plot one can afford. Roland doesn't owe you anything now. As long as you don't target him, I can keep supporting you financially." I don't respond to Christina at all. Instead, I text my dad, whom I've cut ties with for a decade. "I can forgive you, but it comes with a condition. You need to avenge me."

When I got my paycheck that month, I ignored my budget for the first time and bought Paige a teddy bear so it could give her some comfort.With only enough money left to cover her meals and therapy, I ate stale bread for a whole month.Although the bear was cheap, Paige treasured it more than anything. But now, all those beautiful memories had been destroyed by Christina."Officers, please take her away. She's seriously bothering me."Without any hesitation, I turned my wheelchair and left.This time, it was Christina's turn to scream behind me, her voice hoarse and desperate—but I never looked back.…Before his execution, Roland requested to see me. When the prison contacted me, I refused outright."I don't want to taint my eyes by looking at someone as filthy as him. I don't want to scare Paige when I see her again."Later, I heard that Roland cursed me until his very last breath.While in prison, Christina kept writing me letters, but I didn't open a single one of them.

Christina stood not far from me, quietly staring at me the whole time. She tried to come over and talk to me several times, but each time, the bodyguards beside me blocked her path.I didn't even spare her a glance. I turned my wheelchair, ready to leave.She panicked. She broke past the bodyguards and collapsed at my feet."Dylan, I was wrong," she cried, her voice shaking. "I've been reflecting every single day. I hate the person I was before so, so much. I know I caused irreversible damage to you and Paige—""Exactly," I said, lowering my gaze to look at her, hatred still burning in my eyes.The words caught in her throat as her tears continued to fall.I didn't look at her again, and the bodyguards wheeled me away."Christina, the next time we meet, it'll be in court. Are you looking forward to it?"…On the day of the trial, I sat in the gallery, wearing a prosthetic eye and a perfectly tailored high-end suit.Christina took the stand in a prison uniform, crying so hard

Seeing the guards outside collapse in pain, Christina stared warily at the person who walked in, ready to fight to the death.But the man simply handed her an all-black phone and said, "Ms. Ashmore, I was sent by Mr. Dylan Nielson. He wanted to ask you—do you want a chance to atone for your sins?""Christina, when you sent me to the psychiatric hospital, did you ever think a day like this would come? Seeing you looking so pathetic makes me really happy."When she heard my voice coming down the line, her hand instantly tightened on the phone, and tears fell freely from her eyes.At her sobbing, I paused for a second before coldly continuing, "Seeing as we were once husband and wife, I can give you a chance to turn the tables."With that, I sent her Roland's resume from when he worked as a former henchman."I almost forgot this. Take a good look. Your first love, who went missing for seven years—the one you cherished so much… He's on the list of men who kidnapped you back then. Isn
One Corpse, Two Lives: I Went on a Rampage Chapter 7
Christina remembered how, after Paige's accident, she had clutched my hand and sworn that she would make the perpetrator pay with his life.She remembered how, before sending me to the psychiatric hospital, she had said she'd arrange a grand funeral for Paige.She remembered the torment she had inflicted on me over the past three years, as well as the indulgence she'd shown Roland.A fear began creeping into her heart."No… It can't be… It's just a coincidence," she muttered.She frantically scrolled through her phone, searching for photos of Roland when he first returned. In the photos, the scar above his left eyebrow was clear as day, and there wasn't a trace of love in the way he looked at her.Her hands trembled as she turned off her phone, her breathing becoming shallow. In that instant, she finally understood just how ridiculous everything she'd done over the past three years had been.…That night, Roland drank himself into a stupor.
