The afternoon sun hung low over The Drake Residence.Nicholas had friends over, and with the snowfall taking a break, they had set up a grill under the big banyan tree. The staff kept bringing out trays of freshly skewered meat.Evelyn woke up from her nap.She slipped on a coat and stood by the window for a moment, watching the group gathered outside.The barbecue smelled incredible.She could smell it all the way upstairs.She turned around, ready to change clothes and head down, when her phone on the nightstand rang.It was Gloria.She said, Thomas and his wife had guests at noon. The Larson family. They had come to discuss a marriage alliance.Gloria said, They brought a huge bride price, maybe fifty to sixty million dollars. Judging from that, the one Thomas plans to sell off is most likely you, not Aurora. They want to marry you into the Larson family. Marry you to Yohan.Yohan, disfigured and violent, had sent every one of his past wives fleeing for their lives. Your health is

At the precinct.On the way here, the medic traveling with them had bandaged Evelyn’s arm to stop the bleeding.By the time Nicholas arrived at the station, she was sitting in the lobby giving her statement.The moment he stepped in, he heard her say:“A few months ago, my uncle decided that once I graduated, he’d marry me off to a nouveau riche family. But now that his company is collapsing and he desperately needs money, he wanted to push the marriage forward to get the bride price sooner.”“I’m already married. I have a husband. But he wouldn’t back off. He kept chasing after me. Today I was delivering lunch to my husband. He works hard, so I stopped to buy some lilies on the way.”“I had just bought the flowers when he kidnapped me. I tried to resist and he cut me. This is how they’ve treated me all these years.”Vance had just reached the entrance.He too he

But even knowing all this, Patricia still felt heart-sick.Twenty was supposed to be a blooming age, full of romance and youth. A girl should have someone she likes, share sunrises and sunsets, live an ordinary and happy life.Evelyn carried too much.Too much pressure.She knew her body wouldn’t last past twenty-nine. So in these ten years, even if she had to drag her enemies into the abyss with her, she had to see her revenge through.Patricia:“I’ll finish all my coursework by late May. Wait for me to come back to New York. I’ll stay with you no matter what you do, I’ll support you.”“I also talked to a few top international doctors. One of them agreed to take your case. When I return to New York, I’ll bring him to see you.”Evelyn:“Okay. I’ll get better.”Every time Patricia brought up doctors or treatments, Evelyn always replied firmly that she wo

 Just then, Evelyn walked over with a bowl of freshly washed cherries.She stopped in front of him and held one out. “Liam bought these this morning. I tried one earlier. It’s really sweet. Try it.”Nicholas couldn’t be bothered to lift his hand.He simply leaned forward and bit the cherry right from her fingertips.The movement happened so suddenly that Evelyn didn’t even process it. One moment he only lowered his head, and the next, the faint heat of his lips brushed across her fingertip. Warm and damp, the touch sent a tiny ripple across a heart long frozen.It vanished just as quickly.Years of suffocating in darkness had drained the warmth from her blood. Her heart had long gone numb. The only thing that kept her alive was the need for revenge.Watching him bite the cherry, Evelyn froze for half a second before regaining her calm. She tossed the stem into the trash and returned to the chai

Evelyn stepped out of the interrogation room.She thanked Damon, then walked off on her own.Turning down the last hallway toward the front doors, she had barely taken a few steps before running right into Maxwell.Evelyn pretended he didn’t exist.She simply continued walking.But Maxwell moved deliberately into her path and blocked her.“Aurora marrying into the Larson family… you had a hand in that, didn’t you?” Maxwell lowered his voice, staring her down. “You sent her to a wife-beating psycho in a wheelchair. You’re really something.”Ridiculous.Acting like he had the right to confront her.Evelyn lifted her eyes.He immediately looked away, clearly expecting her to ignore him as always.Her sudden attention made him stiffen, caught off guard.Before he could recover, she said, “You can go interrupt the wedding. Go steal the bride.”He
