Half a year ago, Sean Quinton had forced me to head abroad with him to the country where we'd registered our marriage. Our ship had veered off course and sunk in an uncharted area. We'd both choked on large amounts of contaminated water, leading to lung infections.Half a year later, we both lay in hospital beds and were on the brink of death. The uncharted area had turned out to be a wastewater zone—no one else had ever been there, so no one else had died because of this so-called lung infection.Since the doctors had no previous cases to refer to, they couldn't propose any treatment plans for us, no matter how wealthy Sean was.I'd shaved my head because of chemotherapy. When I returned after completing a session, Sean pointed at me, his eyes bloodshot. "She can be used as a sample, can't she? You guys can conduct research on her once she's dead! She has no money, so she can't pay for treatment. Our hospital doesn't treat the poor! Have you guys forgotten that?"It was true tha

Sunny puffed out her cheeks, looking aggrieved. Sean thought about what had happened in the past and relaxed. "Don't let her get to you. She's just stupid."When he'd first started fooling around with Sunny, I'd decided to copy the female leads in soap operas for some inexplicable reason."I don't feel so good, Sean. Can you come home tonight?""Could you ask someone to fix the gas at home, Sean? I'm scared something will happen.""I have a fever and can't breathe, Sean. Can you come home and take me to the hospital?"I'd thought of three excuses in one night. I'd called him thrice, but none of them had made him come home.The following day, he'd returned with Sunny by his side and placed the divorce papers before me. Sunny had stood behind him and casually undone the top two buttons of her shirt, revealing the hickeys all over her neck.That was the moment it had hit me—Sean truly didn't love me anymore.…Sean's condition rapidly deteriorated. Despite using the best medical

Sunny looked a little awkward. She leaned close to Sean and kissed him. "Of course I'm happy. You're going to be all better soon."He looked into her eyes but seemed to see past her, focusing on the ward next door. It seemed like he was wondering why there hadn't been any news on me yet.When the doctor asked Sunny to pick up the new prescription medicine they'd developed, Sean stopped her and said, "Get two doses."She was taken aback, as was he. After a beat, he frowned and said, "Never mind. Just get the medicine."The ward next door remained empty. No one else had taken the room yet. Sean approached the bedside table and picked up a small lion sculpture. There were cracks on it; it had been glued back after it had been broken. It looked ugly.Suddenly, he coughed violently, and the lion slipped out of his hand. He subconsciously threw himself onto the floor to catch it before it could hit the ground. As he did so, he ended up knocking his head on the foot of the bed, and blood

Sunny had used her brother, who'd been in heavy debt from gambling, to achieve this. She'd told him to spend some time in that uncharted area so that he could participate in scientific research and earn some money from it.Her brother had had no idea the scientific research would be conducted on his dead body. He'd waited for Sunny to save him but had instead died on his way to Sean's private hospital.Sunny had killed two birds with one stone—she'd earned five million dollars at the cost of her brother's life and won Sean's trust. She'd even almost become his wife.That wasn't all, though. It turned out she'd orchestrated our accident at sea, too. Heck, it wasn't even an accident. She'd bribed the seaman to veer off course at a specific point and cause the ship to sink. She'd also removed the other oxygen tanks from the ship because she'd been sure that I would save Sean.I couldn't help finding the whole thing ironic. Even Sunny had believed in my love for Sean, yet he hadn't.
