Chapter 4

Author: HF Era
"Your son said he hates you—that you have no business being a mother."

Susan's eyes widened in disbelief upon hearing that from the doctor, but she soon bellowed, "Hates me?! Hah! So Zach bribed you to work with him and trick me, huh?!"

Her eyes were red as she hung up and grabbed my arm, dragging me to the hospital.

She really was dead sure that our son would be fine with me taking care of him and even promised the press to expose my true nature.

I let her drag me along in silence, but the

  • The Savior and the Jinx   Chapter 8

    Susan's voice was filled with helplessness, grief, and despair as she pleaded for people to be patient with her.Every time she did, she remembered our son—the good son who had always told her it didn't hurt, so that she would stay.Why did she have to be so impatient back then?If she hadn't saved that dog and saved her son instead, she wouldn't have to suffer like this!Consumed by immense regret, her mind inevitably drifted to our son each time she asked others to help.As such occasions increased, she would remember him whether she was awake or asleep."I'm so sorry, baby… Mommy really didn't take good care of you…"I'm too ashamed to live with you gone."Just wait! I'll join you soon!"And after such dreams of our son repeated, she stopped eating or drinking.The hospital was terrified and called me, hoping that I would talk to her.However, I was the one who caused her to die in anguish—why would I give up on what I worked so hard for, over unnecessary remorse?"We're

  • The Savior and the Jinx   Chapter 7

    It was a smooth divorce—Susan wouldn't dare mess with me with my jinxing abilities.Still, while she thought she was safe with my promise, her troubles had just started.The first was Mark getting discharged.He worked for her as a secretary, and there was nowhere to go with her company going bankrupt.Having no choice but to follow her around, he coaxed her and assured her, "It's alright. Without Zach being an eyesore, I'm sure you'll soon pull yourself together and even become a billionaire!"Just as Susan found comfort in such sweet words, a bone fractured audibly as Mark finished. Even his encouragement was just lies to please her.Susan was furious seeing that but decided to take him to the hospital out of compassion.However, as soon as she left the house, an oncoming truck sent her flying.Somehow, Mark just lost one bone after that day, while she ended up paraplegic.Without money in her accounts, she could only afford basic treatment.Seeing that she couldn't move

  • The Savior and the Jinx   Chapter 6

    Susan became the most hated businesswoman alive after my press conference, as every investor now rescinding their capital, citing no confidence.The company she worked so hard to save fell apart overnight, but this time, Susan didn't even have time to worry about that.She tagged along with me to the grave, puffy-eyed as I went there again after picking up my son's ashes.She wanted to help with the burial too, saying, "I made a mistake, Zach. Just give me a chance to make things right okay?"I raised a brow like I didn't recognize her at all. "Make things right? How? By cancelling my card again, so that both me and my son get kicked out, again?"Susan clearly had no idea what I was talking about, until the same undertaker saw me and gloated, "I said—if you're poor, leave! How are you so thick-skinned, showing up here again?!"Seeing that lofty attitude, I had yet to speak when Susan swung her handbag across his face. "Poor?! Who said we're poor?! There—take twenty grand on me fo

    Unable to accept the truth, Susan's face was pale and her fingers trembling as she clenched on my sleeve, until she spotted Mark sneaking inching toward the door."Mark!!!" she bellowed. "Why did you hide this from me?! Why did you hide something so important from me?!"Mark almost passed out from her bellow, but he forced a smile and argued, "I meant no harm. I just don't want to see you sad…"Before he could finish, I stared right at his lying mouth as I cursed him under my breath, "From now on, Mark Stanley will suffer a broken bone every time he lies."Susan heard me and glared at me in disapproval, while Mark thought nothing of it and went up to tug on her sleeve as he continued, "I was just going to wait before I tell you, because I don't want to see you sad…"As he finished and walked past me, his left foot tripped over his right foot, and he fell face first.Worst of all, as his leg struck the steps, his bones cracked and broke audibly, and his face contorted in unbearabl

Mr. Johnson is the child's father—why would he lie?!""If you have time to question him, you have plenty of time to answer us!""Did you cheat on him with Mark Stanley?!""When did you start hooking up with Mark Stanley? When you did it, did you consider that you are a mother and a wife?!"The press' furious questions was a barrage of arrows raining on Susan, leaving her pale and

  • The Savior and the Jinx   Chapter 3

    Mark came out of the bedroom with his dog right then, his eyes widened as he feigned shock. "Zach! Have you lost your mind?! How could you curse your own wife?"Then, with the dog in one hand and Susan in the other, he huffed, "Let's go. A man like him doesn't deserve you."Susan smirked at me haughtily as I stayed on the floor. "I told you, Zach—you don't even measure up to Mark's little finger."Then, holding Mark's chin, she kissed him, their lips and tongue slurping audibly in the living room.I glanced at the cameras on the wall.When Susan had those installed, she told me it was to see me since she was always out on business trips.Now, it was going to be proof for my divorce case.Even as I turned away, my curse took hold as Susan's assistant rushed inside, crying in panic, "Ms. York, the core project has just been called off, and our partners are threatening to nullify the contract!"Susan's face dropped.-After that day, Susan didn't leave her office for two weeks,
