Malam ketika Adriel diangkat menjadi bos Keluarga Mahendra, aku memberinya keperawananku. Dia adalah pewaris yang sudah dijodohkan denganku bahkan sebelum aku bisa bicara. Kami berciuman di depan jendela besar yang menjulang dari lantai sampai langit-langit, tubuh kami saling terjerat dalam panas lembap senja itu. Sentuhannya yang kasar dan tergesa-gesa membuatku sakit, tapi aku tidak menjauh. Bahkan rasa sakit itu terasa suci, seperti pengorbanan yang rela aku lakukan demi cinta. Tenggelam dalam panasnya momen itu, dia berjanji akan memberiku sepasang sepatu kristal paling indah, supaya aku bisa berdansa waltz pembuka bersamanya di upacara penobatannya keesokan hari. Tarian pertama selalu dipersembahkan untuk bos baru dan calon pengantinnya. Aku menangis bahagia, yakin bahwa tahun-tahun penantian diam-diamku akhirnya akan berakhir seperti dongeng. Tapi aku salah. Teramat salah. Keesokan paginya, aku memaksa tubuhku yang masih nyeri untuk keluar membeli ekspresso kesukaannya. Saat aku kembali, aku mendengar para lelaki bercanda. "Jadi kamu akhirnya tidur dengannya? Bagaimana rasanya bersama Vivian di malam pertamamu sebagai bos?" Suara Adriel terdengar malas penuh ejekan. "Wajahnya seperti malaikat, tubuhnya seperti iblis. Di ranjang, dia benar-benar seperti ular kecil yang menggoda." Ruangan itu langsung riuh oleh siulan-siulan genit. "Jadi, kamu benar-benar akan menikahinya, Bos Muda?" "Serius kamu pikir begitu?" Adriel mencibir. "Vivian cuma pemanasan. Setelah aku cukup berlatih, aku akan menaklukkan si putri es Keluarga Santoso. Kalau nanti aku bosan, aku selalu bisa kembali padanya dan menikahinya." Aku berdiri terpaku di ambang pintu, pandanganku mulai kabur, cangkir kopi di tanganku bergetar. Sebelum dunia gelap di mataku, aku sempat mengirim pesan sandi untuk Bos Indra Wijaya. [Om Indra, untuk promosi yang akan berlangsung tiga hari lagi, tolong pindahkan aku. Sejauh mungkin dari Adriel.]

I was dying from my fear of heights, but my husband, Don Vincent, was busy with his assistant, savoring the latest coffee flown in from Hawaii that morning. "You're a grown woman, Bella. What's the big deal? You're stuck on a roof, figure it out." Then he hung up on me. I collapsed onto the hot tar of the roof, my body shaking uncontrollably before everything went black. It was two hours before building security found me. When I got home, I asked Vincent for a divorce. He rubbed his temples, his patience worn thin, looking at me as if I were a child throwing a tantrum. "Over a cup of coffee? I told you, the heights are all in your head. You’re perfectly safe now. Stop making a scene alright? What's this nonsense about a divorce? I have more important things to deal with. Calm yourself down." I stared at his back as he left, tears already streaming down my face. Something important? Did he really think I couldn't hear his assistant, Sophia, murmuring in the background? Did he think I didn't know he took her to the last family gathering? I had loved Vincent for three years. Everyone knew he was the center of my world. They all thought an orphan like me could never leave him. But now, all the love I had was eclipsed by a profound, soul-crushing exhaustion. I was done. I picked up my phone and dialed a number I hadn't touched in three long years. "Uncle, book me a flight to Seattle. I'm ready to leave Vincent."

I sponsored Emily Fagan from an underprivileged background just to help her get through school. She was good-looking but wasn't exactly the brightest. Despite my warning not to tamper with my things, she slipped stimulants into my water bottle. Thanks to her, I was accused of cheating in the swimming competition. Our team's score was nullified. As for me, I was banned from competing for life and kicked out of college. When I confronted her, she cried pitifully, "Julie, I just wanted you to win. I didn't know that'd happen." My boyfriend, Elijah Strauss, held her and comforted her. He even snapped at me, claiming, "Em had good intentions. Why are you giving her a hard time?" Crushed, I shut myself in at home. Feeling sorry, she and Elijah visited me and brought along some vodka as an apology. After I took ten shots, I asked her to buy some over-the-counter pain relievers for my splitting headache. Little did I know that she'd make me take a dangerous dose of Ibuprofen mixed with alcohol. The bleeding in my stomach was what killed me. Emily looked pitifully remorseful at the hospital. "I'm so sorry. I couldn't even tell what I shouldn't have given her…" During the police interrogation, my boyfriend gave false testimony to protect her. He accused me of taking my own life by mixing Ibuprofen and alcohol because I couldn't handle the mental stress from cheating in the competition. When I reopened my eyes, I found out that I was transported to the day before the competition.
