I Left With Nothing의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1 - 챕터 8

I smiled bitterly and told him, "I said nothing."That made him angrier. "I doubt it! She's crying her heart out after she called you!" A moment of silence later, he jeered. "Evil witches like you will never know happiness. I have to thank you for dumping me. Wouldn't have run into a kind soul like Teresa otherwise."I was going to say something, but then pain stabbed my chest. I clutched it tightly, but it did not help at all. The pain intensified until it was enough to knock me out.'Not even meds help now?' I thought.My lack of response only made Joseph more impatient. "I'm talking to you, Selina! You're rude! Selina? Selina!"My prolonged silence caught his attention. I heard him calling my name before darkness claimed my consciousness.…I woke up to walls of white. Still in the hospital. With my hands on my side, I pushed myself up from the bed.Joseph said coldly, "Someone's getting fussier. You used to be more extreme."Like him, I loved extreme sports. I went surfing

Teresa pretended to pick the pieces up, but she was looking at Joseph through the corner of her eye.He frowned and held her before she could bend any lower. "No, Teresa. Don't dirty your hands. That necklace is nothing. Just some cheap accessory. If she wants it so much, she can pick up the pieces herself.Teresa put on a fake apology for me. "Sorry, Selina. You'll have to pick up the pieces yourself. I can't do it since I'm really weak."Then, she sat on the couch and looked at me, trying to watch me humiliate myself.He went over and put his arms around her. He too wanted to watch me make a show. I told them I could live without the necklace, so I tried to leave.She said, "No can do, Selina. You can't leave our house in a mess. Besides, you cleaned the place. It’s only right to see it through."I clenched my fists and held back my fury. Then, I looked at Joseph. He didn't seem to care. The man was caressing Teresa's head.They exchanged a smile. To me, it was an eyesore. "Fi

Joseph sneered. "Hatred blinded me. It took me too long to find out. Your proof, including the surgeon's signature, was fake! Doctored!"Teresa paled. "Yes, I made it all up, but so what? She left you anyway!" Tears streamed down her cheeks. Carefully, she crawled over and held the leg of Joseph's pants. "She's dying anyway. The living are more important than the dead. I'll always stay with you. I'm the one who's stayed with you all this time."The world around him was spinning. He remembered how he mocked me on the award stage. He remembered how he held Teresa and humiliated me in front of everyone else. And he remembered how he hit me just for Teresa.'What the hell have I been doing?' he thought and cursed himself in his mind. 'Damn me.'Then, he closed his eyes. When he opened them again, they were red. He shook Teresa as hard as he could and tried to drag her to the hospital to see whether her heart was a match for me."You love me, eh? Then, get Selina back! Give her your

He stopped talking, and his eyes were red. "You're mad at me, aren't you?"I said nothing. He begged me to see a doctor. He said that medicine was more advanced here, and that I would get better.I laughed at myself and said no. Even if I could get a surgery, finding a match would take forever.The man would not take no for an answer. "Please, please forgive me. Don't kill yourself over this."I sneered and slammed my foot into his belly. He groaned in agony, and his face went white."Does that hurt? My pain is at least a thousand times worse! How dare you ask for my forgiveness!'Joseph grabbed my ankle and shoved my foot into his body himself. "Kick me if you must. Do anything to vent. Just get that surgery!"I kicked my foot free of his hand. "I'd want to, but my body's at its limits."Frozen, he put his hands down, and I went into my house. The moment I went inside, I saw him punish himself until his cheeks were swollen.And I slammed my door shut.Final day. Joseph staye
