Chapter 1

A burly woman slapped me so hard that I collapsed onto the floor. Her face twisted with rage, and her voice sounded like she wanted to tear me to pieces."You little homewrecker! How dare you seduce my husband? Do you have any morals? He barely makes any money, yet he spends every last dollar on a tramp like you!"My burned hand covered my stinging cheek, and I stared at her in confusion. "I've never seduced your husband, and I don't even know him. Those are all just rumors."The woman did not believe me, so she crouched and grabbed my chin viciously. Then, she spat right in my face as she sneered.I kept staring toward the street outside.Timothy Blackwood passed by the restaurant every evening after work, and it was about the time he usually got off.Just when I felt like I could not hold on anymore, Timothy finally walked past the door. I staggered to my feet, pushed the door open, and grabbed his arm."Timothy, as long as you're willing to clear my name, I'll disappear from

Chapter 2

Timothy's expression hardened again. After comforting Gracie and hanging up, he said coldly, "Without some real consequences, you'll never learn your lesson!"With that, he turned and walked away.I stood there, frozen in place, stunned that Timothy had actually given Gracie five beachside villas.He had always been afraid I was a materialistic woman, so during all our years of marriage, he had given me less than 1000 dollars in total. All my expenses depended on this little restaurant. From working so hard to make a living, my health had long since deteriorated.All that, and Timothy easily handed Gracie five beachside villas.My ears rang, automatically blocking out the people's vicious insults. When they got worked up enough, they started attacking me physically.I curled up on the ground, letting them do as they pleased, tears streaming down my face in despair. Suddenly, a piercing pain shot through my lower abdomen, and blood pooled beneath me.Only then did I realize I was

After arriving at the hospital, the smell of food on my body and the dried blood below drew disgusted stares and pointing fingers from everyone.One mocked, "That's the shameless woman who went viral. She's into some twisted stuff, getting herself all bloody like that. If I got exposed like that, I'd have killed myself already, but she still has the nerve to show her face in public."Someone else wrinkled their nose and said, "You could smell that nasty scent on her from far away. Why is someone like that still alive? She should just hurry up and die."It felt like I had been stripped naked and exposed to the entire world.I hung my head low as wave after wave of humiliation tore my heart open. Biting my lip hard, I clutched my abdomen and struggled forward with difficulty.Finally reaching the OB-GYN department, I waited in line outside for my number. Everyone around me could not get far enough away from me.When it was my turn, a patient from outside barged in and yanked me up

Before I could refuse, Timothy threw a dress at me and left.That evening, I changed into the outfit he gave me and went to the party. I had planned to find a corner where no one would notice me.However, when Gracie saw me and shouted, "Alyssa's here? Come over here! I'm counting on you to take good care of me in this house from now on."In an instant, dozens of eyes were fixed on me. Their stares made me tremble.I lowered my head in fear, and Gracie ran over to take my hand with fake affection. "Alyssa, could you go up on stage and say a few words to welcome me? If you don't, I won't feel comfortable moving in."I stiffly shook my head.How was this any different from a public execution?Gracie started crying again, and Timothy looked at her with such distress.He glared at me viciously and asked, "Don't you want me to clear your name?"At this point, clearing my name did not matter anymore. However, I was afraid of what other tactics Timothy might use. With that, I dragged

Chapter 5

Pierre frantically sprinted downstairs.Timothy's hand froze in place, his mind racing. 'Jumped off a building? How's that possible? Alyssa values her life! None of whatever's been happening crushed her. Even with her reputation now, I've never actually despised her. Besides, I've long ago decided that I'd take care of her for the rest of her life.'However, Pierre did not sound like he was lying.Timothy's heart pounded as he dropped everything and rushed to the party venue at top speed.As I fell from the building, my mind played through everything from when Timothy and I first met to our wedding like a montage.It was almost laughable, really.My parents had been close friends with his grandmother, Agatha Pearce. After my parents died in a car accident, I was taken in by the Blackwood family.When I graduated from college, Agatha entrusted me to Timothy. Back then, he loved Gracie. She was the one he wanted to marry. Unable to defy his family, he was forced to marry me instea

Chapter 6

Timothy gritted his teeth and roared, "Those were all lies! All of them were lies! She's not that kind of person. Alyssa is a good person!"As he spoke these words, his voice began to tremble. He was almost too afraid to face reality, but he frantically pushed through the crowd anyway.When he saw me lying in a pool of blood, it was as if all the strength drained out of his body. His legs gave out as he collapsed to his knees. He crawled over to my side, wanting to hold me, but he did not even dare touch me.He screamed at the top of his lungs, "Call an ambulance! Someone, call an ambulance! Alyssa is a good person. There's still a chance!"Everyone looked at him like he was a madman. Finding the scene boring, they waved dismissively and dispersed.Timothy frantically pulled out his phone and called for an ambulance....The surgery lasted all night long. Timothy stayed outside the operating room without closing his eyes once. He had already prepared himself for the worst. If Al

Several doctors came into my ward, all marveling at what they called a medical miracle.Aside from blinking my eyes, I made no other move.Timothy noticed something was wrong and quickly asked the doctor what was going on.The doctor looked at me and explained, "The patient just woke up and isn't ready to face reality yet. She's trying to numb herself. She'll need proper psychological counseling."After checking me thoroughly and confirming there were no other issues, they left.Timothy slowly approached me. He bent down gently in front of me, cautiously. The moment he took my hand, he broke down crying."Alyssa, you finally woke up. Do you know how much I missed you this past year? There were so many times I felt like I couldn't keep going anymore."As he spoke, he buried his head and sobbed quietly.All I felt was disgust, though. I did not understand why he was acting so desperate, and I did not want him touching me.I yanked my hand away forcefully, then turned over with a

Chapter 8

Hearing Timothy's words, I could not help but laugh out loud.Cleared my name? Did he expect me to thank him for that?The impression people had of me was already branded in their minds, and there was no way to erase it. Besides, the moment my photos spread and my dress fell off in public, my body had already been exposed to everyone.Just thinking about it made my chest tighten until I could barely breathe. Despite that, I still forced myself to overcome it. After surviving this near-death experience, I realized some things were not as important as they seemed.Since I had survived, there was still a long road ahead of me. Sooner or later, I would have to face it.I unclenched my fists that had turned white from gripping so hard."Whatever this is, it's not working out. My feelings for you died a long time ago. I don't have any love left for you–only hate."Timothy, for the rest of my life, I don't want anything to do with you."Timothy broke down, covering his face with his h

Chapter 9

I could not figure Timothy out anymore. Then again, that no longer mattered to me, and I had no interest in understanding him either.After glaring furiously at Gracie being thrown out, Timothy suppressed his temper, turned, and looked at me with eyes full of tenderness."Alyssa, I told you before, my love is yours only. How about we go on a vacation? What about traveling around the world?"Perhaps because I had quietly stayed here for the past few months, Timothy assumed I had already forgiven him.I stared at him coldly and took a few steps back. "Timothy, it's time for us to get divorced."I glanced at my watch. "We still have time today. Let's go get the divorce papers finalized."Timothy's eyes widened in shock first, then his face filled with terror. "Alyssa, I've already cleared away all the obstacles between us. I won't force you to let Gracie live with us anymore. It's only going to be the two of us in this house."You've been so much more stable these past few days. Wh
