Chapter 1

I was pregnant with twins when I was abducted three days before I was due to give birth.The perpetrators wanted 100 million dollars as ransom and demanded that my husband, Sheldon Jackson, personally deliver the money to them. However, he rejected them because of Madison Smith, his sister-in-law. She was pregnant with his elder brother, Scott Jackson's child, and had also been taken.To protect Madison, Sheldon was going to personally deliver the ransom money to her abductors to save her. His voice was wracked with guilt when it echoed from the receiver. "Scott died saving me. So, I must protect his unborn child. I've already sent Harry to save you. He'll definitely bring you back home safe and sound!"He then hung up in a rush.As I looked at the fierce and terrifying captors, I could only pin all my hopes on Harry Smith. The door to the warehouse was pushed open some time later. A man carrying a briefcase strolled in, the light illuminating him from behind.Hope sparked in my

Harry snatched his phone out of my hands and laughed at me mockingly. "Mr. Jackson doesn't want to come get you and wants you to listen to me. It's obvious that he wants you dead."The leader of the people who had taken me kicked my shoulder while rubbing his hands together and smiling wickedly. "We'll have to do as Harry wants and properly deal with this bitch then!"Mr. Jackson is so generous for paying us ten million dollars for our services. We have to make sure we give Mrs. Jackson the best treatment that we can!"Harry approached me, his expression fierce. He moved his lips close to my ear and lowered his voice to barely above a whisper, so that only the two of us could hear his next words. "Stop struggling. Once you're dead, Sheldon and the Jackson family will belong to my sister."My heart throbbed in pain as tears continued to roll down my cheeks. "Sheldon will avenge me once he finds out the truth. He definitely won't let you off the hook!""It's fine. I can pin the blam

Chapter 3

My survival instincts made me ignore the burning flames as I struggled to crawl toward the open door. Every move that I made felt like torture. I finally made it to the door, but I had exhausted all my strength by then and ended up collapsing on the threshold.The columns of thick smoke quickly attracted the attention of passersby."The building is on fire! Call the police! It seems that there are still people inside!"The ear-splitting sounds of police sirens wailed in the distance. I lost consciousness completely when I was hauled into an ambulance. When I opened my eyes again, I realized that I was staring at the blinding white lights in a hospital.The nurse next to me was sweating profusely as she delivered an endless stream of reports to the doctor. "Doctor, the patient has Rh-negative blood and needs a large blood transfusion. However, all of our blood stock was transferred away by Sheldon Jackson. He claims that he needs it for his sister-in-law to ensure that nothing goe

There was a loud buzzing in Sheldon's head, and he felt as if he had been struck by a heavy blow. He asked, "What did you say about my wife?"The abductor on the other end of the line began to brag. "It's all thanks to your assistant, Mr. Jackson. He told us that you wanted to get rid of that bitch and the little bastards in her stomach a long time ago. We were able to help you out because of him."Veins protruded on the hand that Sheldon was clutching the phone with. He couldn't stop himself from shaking when he recalled how I had called him earlier to warn him that Harry had betrayed him—how I had claimed that Harry was planning to kill me.Fear that he had never experienced before spread through his body rapidly, crawling up the soles of his feet to his spine. He thought about the young abductor who had called him earlier, begging him for help."Mr. Jackson, you have to come here now!"Sheldon had hung up immediately, assuming that it was one of my tricks to get him to go to th

Chapter 5

Sheldon let out a furious roar before he delivered a powerful punch directly into Harry's face."How dare you lie to me!" he screamed. "I know what Beatrice is like. She would never cheat on me! She was carrying my children!"He recalled how he had been left impotent after damaging his lower half in the car accident three months ago. The twins in my belly had been the last of his bloodline. He recalled how I had looked while cradling my stomach, my eyes sparkling with anticipation as I talked about our children's futures.Sheldon felt like his heart was being torn apart. He sneered down at Harry with eyes that didn't have even a hint of warmth in them. "Tell me what happened in the warehouse. Tell me everything. Spare no detail."Harry finally broke down after Sheldon rained down relentless blows on him. He told Sheldon everything that had transpired in the warehouse—from how he had slandered me, to how he had egged the abductors on into killing me.Sheldon's body swayed from le

Sheldon collapsed on the floor. "Then what about her corpse? I want to bring her back with me!"The emergency doctor walked away, his expression cold, saying that Sheldon didn't deserve to have my corpse.Sheldon knelt on the floor and wailed loudly like a child. He stayed in the hospital day and night like a madman. He flipped through all the mortuary records, but couldn't find anything that was related to me.He offered a handsome reward to anyone who managed to locate the young abductor who had called and begged him for help. His mind was haunted by a single thought—as long as he didn't see my corpse, then I was still alive.The days slipped by as Sheldon lost himself in his insanity and dedicated himself to looking for me.Six months later, Jackson Corporation was on the verge of bankruptcy since no one was handling the business. On top of that, Sheldon was spending the company's funds frivolously. He was once a formidable president, but he had been reduced to a madman with bl

My heart was completely unmoved as I listened to Dad. I was totally unconcerned with what Sheldon was up to.That day was the day that Dad would bring me home since I was being discharged from the sanatorium. The car had just driven out of the premises when a crazed figure rushed forward and blocked the car from moving forward."Beatrice! Beatrice, it's me, Sheldon!"I was momentarily stunned when I looked at the man in the disheveled clothes who looked like a beggar. Was he really Sheldon? He looked nothing like the Sheldon I remembered—the handsome and charming man who once treated me like a precious treasure.The driver slammed his foot on the brake, causing me to slam against the back of the front seat due to inertia. Dad swiftly supported me, looking anxious."Are you alright, Bea?"I shook my head as I directed my gaze to the man blocking our path.Sheldon was slapping the car window. Joy was etched into the lines of his face as tears rolled down his cheeks. "I knew that y

Chapter 8

Sheldon was immobilized entirely on the ground. He lifted his head and looked at Dad in disbelief before looking at me. Dad sneered down at him, his eyes burning with fury and contempt. "Where were you when my daughter called you and begged you to save her? Where were you when that subordinate of yours killed her children, and she was left to burn in the flames? Where were you when she was lying on the operating table and waiting for the blood that would save her life?"Sheldon's face turned paler with each question that Dad asked him. In the end, all the color had drained from his face."You pushed your own wife into the pits of hell over and over again for the sake of that snake of a woman and the bastard child in her stomach. You're not fit to be a human being, let alone a husband."Dad walked over to Sheldon and stepped on his hand. "You touched my daughter with this hand just now, didn't you?"The sounds of bones being crushed clearly resounded in the air. Sweat beaded on
