My fiancé secretly took the heart I had donated to my mother and had it transplanted into his stepmother instead.Standing just outside the study door, I gripped the handle until my knuckles turned white, my whole body trembling.The room next door, Alexander exhaled smoke rings, his tone barely concealing obscurity."Since I am bound by secular ethics and cannot be with my stepmother, I must protect Scarlett's safety for a lifetime."Alexander's beta Kane spoke again, his voice troubled:"But Sarah can't fully adapt to the artificial heart. She suffers from coughing up blood and chest pains constantly. She cannot sense her wolf and can't even carry pups.""And don't forget - her artificial heart only has one month of life left. It needs to be replaced soon. Are you really going to make her endure the agony of surgery after surgery for the rest of her life? Sarah loves you so much. Give her heart back to her. You already have several backup donors lined up for Scarlett anyway."Alexand

Besides these, there were photos of luxury jewelry and enchanted artifacts he'd given Scarlett.He'd even bought a heart-shaped private island overseas in Scarlett's name.While in all these years, the only thing Alexander ever gave me was that artificial heart that brought endless torment and pain.While I was grieving my mother's death and suffering from bloody coughs and pain, Scarlett was already lounging on the soft sand of her private island, basking in the sun.My hands shook uncontrollably as I held the phone. Nausea overwhelmed me, and I rushed to the side to retch.I accidentally bumped the bookshelf, and a book fell out.Picking it up, I realized it was actually a box disguised as a book.Inside were several "Voluntary Heart Donation" certificates and stacks of transfer receipts.Alexander had been sending large monthly payments to these donors' families, maintaining them.There was only one condition - they couldn't donate their hearts to anyone else. Whenever Scarlett need

Alexander grabbed my hand awkwardly, trying to explain:"Sarah, don't overthink it. I'm Scarlett's step-son, I just..."Scarlett suddenly clutched her chest, frowning:"My chest feels tight. I wonder if my heart condition is acting up..."Alexander immediately let go of me, pulling her into his arms, face full of worry:"Why is your chest suddenly tight? Does it hurt? No, I must examine you right away."Without another word, he scooped Scarlett up in his arms like a princess and carried her upstairs, not even glancing back at me.The guests all looked at me with mockery in their eyes."No wonder Alexander would rather buy his stepmother so many gowns and jewels than get his mate even one. A woman of such low birth doesn't deserve fine things.""She probably used her mother's death and her father's remaining reputation to trap Alexander into mating her. Shameless thing, stepping over her mother's corpse to marry into power."The whispers grew louder until the Alpha, feeling he'd lost fa

Scarlett sobbed:"I just saw that your mate hadn't eaten, so I wanted to bring her some beverage. But she accused me of causing her mother's death, knocked over the food, and poured red wine on me. If you had come any later, she would have killed me.""The hot tea and wine were prepared by me personally. I know they're not fancy, but it's the thought that counts~ I even burned my hand with the hot water..."Alexander's face darkened instantly:"Sarah, your mother's heart attack was because she was too weak and insisted on meddling in young wolves’ affairs. Scarlett was kind enough to worry about you, and this is how you repay her? How dare you blame her?!"I listened in disbelief to these absurd words."Alexander, tell me, how did my mother really die? Did you really give her my heart?"Alexander frowned:"Of course I did. Didn't I tell you? Your mother had rejection complications after surgery. Heart transplants are always risky - don't you even know that basic fact? Yet you still rej

Sarah was physically weak and couldn't work, let alone afford the expensive artificial heart replacement.If she hadn't replaced it, then Sarah must be...Alexander couldn't bear to finish the thought. Just imagining that possibility made it hard to breathe.Even his assistant could tell something was wrong, yet Scarlett remained oblivious.She didn't recognize the artificial heart - she never needed one. She looked disdainfully at the object in Alexander's hands:"What kind of junk did Sarah give you?""She must have made quite a fortune being married to you all these years. Yet she couldn't even get you a proper gift? Once a pauper, always a pauper. She probably hoarded all the money for herself.""We came all this way at night for her surgery, and she doesn't even show up. You've really spoiled her. Let's go, Alex. Let her suffer - who cares about this piece of scrap metal?"She tried to knock the artificial heart from Alexander's hands onto the floor, reaching to grab his arm.Unex

A few days later, I woke up in a strange room.My friend Maria's worried face came into view. Her cheeks were tear-stained. Seeing me awake, she burst into tears:"Baby, you're finally awake! I was so scared my skills weren't good enough and the surgery would fail."Seeing my questioning look, she quickly explained:"Don't worry, Alexander was indeed looking for you, but I got you away before he could find you. We're in a neutral pack’s territory, thousands of miles from his pack. He'll never find you here. Rest easy."I sighed:"Why save me? Living or dead makes no difference to me now."Maria cried again:"I had no choice! Your friend only knows how to save lives, not take them.""Besides, why did you think I came back? I found a matching heart donor for you. Otherwise, who would agree to do this surgery? You need to live well - otherwise, your mother would be heartbroken. The ones who should die are Alexander and that Scarlett bitch!"Maria took me to meet the donor's mother. She sh

After finishing work at the art studio one day, Maria called.She said the weather was getting warmer, and since she was free tonight, she invited me for a walk on the beach.I never expected to see Alexander again.His face lit up with joy:"Sarah, is it really you? I thought I was seeing things. Sarah, I've missed you so much..."Alexander was carrying a brown light-proof container that seemed to hold some liquid, giving off a sharp smell.Noticing my wary gaze, he eagerly held out the container like offering a treasure:"Sarah, look, I got your heart back. While it's still viable, let me do the surgery for you? You'll never have to suffer with the artificial heart again."My heart?What about Scarlett? Did he use another donor?"No need. Maria already found me a matching heart and did the surgery. Just go - I don't want to see you again. I don't want anything that's been inside Scarlett's body. Donate it to someone who needs it," I said coldly.Alexander seemed stunned by this respo
