Chapter 1 My Punishment

Blake Henderson idly spun his phone in his hand, the shifting glow from the screen flickering across his handsome face.It had been three days, and I still had not called him once. In the past, I used to cling to him every second I could."I guess she finally learned her lesson." Blake chuckled softly. Melinda's tear-streaked face flashed through his mind, only to be quickly replaced by annoyance.Just then, his phone rang.Blake picked it up quickly and said, "Melinda, you—""Mr. Henderson, Mrs. Henderson's room hasn't been cleaned for the past two days. The smell is getting quite strong."It was the butler."What trick is she playing now?" A trace of disgust flashed in Blake's eyes. "Is she trying to force me to go back just like this? Dream on."Hearing his words, the butler hesitated for a moment before saying, "Mrs. Henderson may already—"Before he could finish, Blake cut him off. "Leave her alone. Let her fend for herself."Then, he hung up the call.Blake frowned and

Chapter 2 Suffocated to Death

After great effort, I finally reached the doorknob. However, I realized that he had locked the door from the outside.I tried with all my strength to make a sound, but my throat felt completely blocked. All I could manage were hoarse, rasping gasps.Desperately, I pounded on the door. Once, twice, three times…The sound grew weaker and weaker until I no longer had the strength to even lift my hand in the end.Just as my consciousness was about to fade, I heard the butler's voice outside the door."Mr. Henderson, are you sure you want to do this? If Mrs. Henderson really…""Shut up! One more word, and you're fired!" Blake snapped impatiently."If she doesn't suffer a bit, she'll never learn."The lack of oxygen made my head buzz violently, and my vision started growing darker. In the end, I could see nothing at all.…"Forget it. Let Melinda out. The key is in my study drawer," Blake finally instructed coldly.The butler's expression turned uneasy as he acknowledged the order

Chapter 3 Rosie's Fake Act

Rosie clung affectionately to Blake's arm and said sweetly, "Melinda, I'm sure you don't mind me here, right?"Looking at how close they were, I found it almost unbearable to watch.Blake frowned and said impatiently, "Why should you care what she thinks? If you want to come, you can. Since when does she get a say?"Suppressing my anger, I reminded him coldly, "Today is our wedding anniversary.""So what?" Blake sneered, pulling Rosie to sit at the table. "If you don't like it, then leave. No one is forcing you to stay."His words were like needles piercing my heart.We had been together for years, yet I still couldn't get a single trace of affection from him in return.After taking a few bites of the food, Rosie's expression suddenly changed. She covered her mouth and began to retch.Seeing her reaction, Blake panicked immediately. "What's wrong, Rosie? What happened?"She weakly pointed at the dishes in front of her and said with a trembling voice. "I'm allergic to peanuts.

Chapter 4 The Only One Who Cared for Me

My scalp throbbed with pain, as if it were about to split open.He yanked me up from the ground and dragged me into the room like a piece of trash."I'll ask you one last time. Are you going to admit that you harmed Rosie?"I looked at him in despair. The love I once felt had long since turned into bone-deep coldness. My swollen throat made it impossible for me to say even a single word.…On the other end of the line, the butler stared at my decaying body, his face pale. He was so frightened that he nearly dropped his phone.With trembling hands, he called Sarah Lokesivan, Blake's mother.When I saw his actions, I rushed forward and tried to stop him, but my hand passed right through the phone.I didn't want Sarah to see me like this.When I was little, my parents were always busy with business and often left me with the Henderson family. Sarah pitied me and treated me like her own daughter.She was the only one all these years who never took Rosie's side.My death would al

Chapter 5 Rosie Stole Everything

Sarah's trembling hands stroked my face again and again as she murmured, "Melinda, I shouldn't have let you marry him."Suddenly, she seemed to realize something and looked sharply at the butler. "Was it Blake? Was he the one who forced Melinda to drink?"The butler lowered his head, unable to meet her gaze. "Mr. Henderson… He did…"When Sarah heard that, her vision went black, and she collapsed."Madam Henderson!" I instinctively reached out but grasped nothing.Blake called Sarah repeatedly, but his number had already been blocked."Dead? I can't believe Melinda is getting more ridiculous by the day. I told you to put her on the phone! Stop playing these stupid tricks!"No matter what, he would never believe that Melinda, who had always endured everything silently and tried so hard to please him, would actually die.Soon, he called again. This time, he called my phone.Hearing the system message that indicated my phone was off, Blake grew even more irritated and sent a text

Chapter 6 Blake Noticed Something Off

Sarah forced herself to handle my funeral arrangements. Everyone in the villa was dismissed, including the butler.She sat exhausted on the sofa, unable to hide the grief in her eyes. She gently stroked the urn in her arms, as if she were touching my cold face."Melinda, you've suffered so much…" Her voice trembled as silent tears fell.How I wished I could tell her not to be sad. For over twenty years, I had lived in Rosie's shadow, becoming an outsider.So perhaps death was a better choice for me.…At Rosemary, Blake checked his watch again and again, impatience filling his eyes."Damn it! What trick is that woman playing now?"Finally losing patience, Blake abruptly stood and kicked over the chair behind him.Furious, he called the butler. "Where is Melinda? Tell her to come to Rosemary now!"From the other end came the butler's helpless voice. "Mr. Henderson, Mrs. Henderson can't come. She—""What do you mean she can't? Tell her to get here immediately!"The butler sig

Chapter 7 The Truth Revealed

Along the way, Rosie remained silent. She kept her head lowered, nervously twisting her fingers as she fell deep into thought.At the hospital, the doctor gave Rosie a thorough examination, and the results showed that she had no allergic reaction at all."Doctor, are you sure that she isn't allergic?" Blake asked hastily as he stared at the doctor in disbelief.The doctor nodded firmly and replied, "Yes, Mr. Henderson. This young lady shows no signs of an allergic reaction. She's perfectly healthy."In that split second, Blake froze. Instinctively, he turned to Rosie, doubt and accusation creeping into his voice. "Rosie, didn't you say you were allergic to peanuts that day?"Rosie's eyes instantly reddened. Choking back tears, she said, "I don't know either. I really felt awful that day. The doctor said it was an allergy too, so I thought…" Halfway through, she suddenly covered her face and sobbed uncontrollably.Seeing this, Blake softened.He felt guilty for suspecting Rosie

Chapter 8 Late Regret

The cause of my death was severe alcohol poisoning.When Blake saw this, his eyes widened. Against his will, his mind returned to that night.I had begged him miserably, but he still cruelly poured cup after cup of red wine into my mouth. I had struggled in agony, my stomach twisting violently, yet he had shoved me away in disgust."No! This is impossible! Melinda, she…"He staggered backward, reaching out as if to touch my photo, only for Sarah to shove him away fiercely."Don't touch her, you murderer. You don't deserve to touch her! Get out! Get out of here! Don't dirty Melinda's funeral!""Mom, I didn't… I never meant for her to die…" Blake clutched his head in pain.He couldn't believe it. He could not believe that the woman who had always greeted him with a smile and treated him so gently had truly left him.All of it had been caused by his own hands.Every word I had once said to him echoed through his mind."Blake, don't be mad at me. I'm scared…""Blake, I don't fee

Chapter 9 He Had Rosie Pay the Price

"Tell me! Was it you? Did you deliberately fake that allergy that day?" Blake's voice was low and hoarse, filled with chilling rage.Rosie was startled by his sudden outburst, and her face turned pale."Blake, what are you talking about? I don't understand." She tried to break free, but it was useless."Stop pretending!" Blake threw her to the floor and glared at her. "Was it you? Speak!""I… I just didn't want you to be with her…""Rosie, how can you be so vicious?" Blake looked down at her coldly. "Do you know she's dead? Melinda is dead!"Rosie sat collapsed on the floor, tears streaming down her face as she tried to defend herself. "I only wanted you to spend more time with me. I never meant for her to die.""You didn't?" Blake roared. "How dare you say you didn't?" He kicked her in fury, and Rosie screamed, curling up in pain."You were selfish and jealous of her! I knew she was allergic to alcohol, but I still…" Blake choked on his words, and he could no longer continue.

Chapter 10 What Goes Around Comes Around

"After you die, I'll go join Melinda too."Rosie closed her eyes in despair as the icy water closed over her. The suffocating fear grew stronger and stronger, and her consciousness gradually blurred.Love that came too late was nothing but the last fading light of dusk.'Blake, do you regret it now?'I saw Blake close his eyes in agony. A tear slid from the corner of his eye and fell into the bathtub, disappearing into the water."Melinda…" he murmured hoarsely, his voice filled with pain and regret. I smiled bleakly and wondered if Blake finally realized his mistake.Unfortunately, everything was already too late.Somehow, Blake found out where my grave was.With a bottle of liquor and a small knife, he knelt before my tombstone and cried. He apologized to me over and over, saying he loved me.He even tried to end everything there in front of my grave.I wondered if he thought that would atone for his sins. If he thought I would forgive him because of this, he was going out
