All Chapters of The End of Your Family: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I held up my phone and started a live stream, tagging Kelly on the spot."Zarrick, Dad and Mom are in the hospital. They're barely hanging on, waiting for you to bring money to save them. But you say you have no money—yet somehow, you have enough to throw a birthday party for this woman? What kind of logic is that?"Zarrick's little celebration came to a screeching halt. Furious, he stormed over and slapped me across the face."It's my money. I'll spend it however I damn well please!"I let out a sharp laugh. He had also used my money for this party. Since that was the case, I could smash it however I damn well pleased."Smash everything. All of it."Zarrick panicked, grabbing my arm. "Go home. Stop making a scene!"I scoffed, shaking him off. He thought I was making a scene? If so, he was really underestimating me.I hadn't been raised to be meek. My parents had spoiled me from birth, and my temper was never mild to begin with. Over the years, I had swallowed my pride and endu

Ever since the accident, Chad had gone into hiding. When the police came looking for him, I led them straight to Kelly's hospital room.Zarrick's expression darkened the moment he realized I was the one who had reported it. His irritation was evident. "Your parents are dead. That's it. It's over. If Kelly's brother goes to jail, his whole life is ruined. How could you be so vicious?"I smiled faintly. "Hit-and-run is a crime. I don't make the laws."Kelly burst into tears, her delicate frame trembling as she clung to Zarrick's arm, sobbing like a tragic heroine in a bad drama. "If this is about revenge, just come at me," she choked out between sobs. "Why drag an innocent man into it? Even if my brother goes to jail, it won't bring your parents back. Why can't you just be generous, be kind?"Zarrick's glare sharpened as he turned to me, then softened as he pulled her into his arms to comfort her."You think we don't understand the law?" His voice was laced with disdain. "So w

I watched as Zarrick repeatedly contacted his trusted subordinates, plotting to trip me up at the company. What he didn't know was that those very people had already switched sides.After his release, he moved in with Kelly. The two no longer bothered to hide their relationship, appearing together everywhere as if flaunting it.But of all the things she could have done, the one mistake she should never have made was touching my daughter.She showed up at the kindergarten to pick my daughter up, only to be stopped by the teacher. Brazenly, she declared herself my daughter's new mother and caused a scene at the school gates.By the time I arrived, she was already grabbing my daughter's arm. I didn't even think—I pulled my daughter behind me and slapped her across the face."Kelly, try laying a hand on my daughter again, and see what happens."She looked like she wanted to hit me back, but as soon as she spotted Zarrick in the distance, she switched tactics, tears welling up in her

Fine, call him a kept man if you want. If he had at least been competent enough to handle his own wife and find a way to keep money flowing, that would have been one thing. But as it turned out, he had nothing. Nothing at all.It was then that Kelly realized, what a waste of her time.And yet, Zarrick had the audacity to claim that his wife was just a housewife, completely dependent on him, useless without him. But looking at him now, it was clear who had really been rendered useless.A man's biggest weakness is thinking too little of a woman."You can keep him," she said.…That night, Kelly left. She never showed up again.According to Zarrick's family traditions, the funeral lasted three days. Three days of relentless condemnation from his relatives, their voices sharp and unyielding, wearing him down piece by piece.But the cruelest part wasn't their words. It was the slow realization sinking into his bones, the truth he could no longer deny: everything that happened was hi

Even now, Kelly stayed out of sight, avoiding everything, which left Chad bitter and resentful. Eventually, the two turned on each other, their arguments escalating into all-out war.It wasn't until then that Zarrick finally realized—the man he had assumed was Kelly's older brother was nothing of the sort. He was just another one of her lovers. Kelly wasn't some innocent college girl; she was a scam artist, a woman who played men for money. And while she had been with Zarrick, she had been with plenty of others too. He had been the last to know, the fool with a crown of betrayal.His parents had discovered the truth, and that was why she had silenced them.The revelation shattered him. In a blind rage, he nearly strangled her to death."You lied to me," he seethed. "You ruined my life."She barely escaped, thanks to bystanders pulling him off. But from that moment on, she looked at him like he was a lunatic."It's your fault for being such an idiot," she spat before running. An
