Barnes & Noble Booktok Festival

Dokter mengatakan, tanpa terapi sel terbaru, aku hanya bisa hidup selama 72 jam. Namun, Tommy Harper memberikan satu-satunya kuota pengobatan itu kepada Anna Wilson. "Gagal ginjalnya lebih parah," ujar Tommy. Aku mengangguk, lalu menelan pil putih yang akan mempercepat kematianku. Dalam sisa waktu itu, aku melakukan banyak hal. Saat penandatanganan, tangan pengacara gemetar. "Saham senilai empat triliun ini, Anda benar-benar akan mengalihkan semuanya?" Aku menjawab, "Ya, berikan pada Anna." Putriku, Clarisa, tertawa bahagia dalam pelukan Anna. "Ibu Anna membelikanku gaun baru!" "Bagus sekali, nanti dengarkan perkataan Ibu Anna, ya," ujarku. Galeri seni yang kudirikan dengan tanganku sendiri, berganti nama menjadi milik Anna. "Kakak, kamu terlalu baik," ujarnya sambil menangis. Aku menjawab, "Kamu akan mengelolanya lebih baik dariku." Bahkan aku telah menyerahkan hak atas dana perwalian orang tuaku. Tommy akhirnya menampilkan senyuman tulus pertamanya selama bertahun-tahun. "Sofie, kamu sudah berubah. Kamu nggak lagi galak. Kamu yang seperti ini, sungguh cantik." Benar, aku yang sekarat ini akhirnya menjadi Sofie Barnes yang sempurna di mata mereka. Sofie yang patuh, dermawan, dan tidak pernah membantah. Hitungan mundur 72 jam telah dimulai. Aku sangat penasaran, ketika detak jantungku berhenti, apa yang akan mereka ingat tentangku? Apakah aku akan diingat sebagai istri baik yang akhirnya belajar melepaskan, atau sebagai seorang wanita yang menyelesaikan balas dendamnya dengan kematian?

How would you define your worth? My name is Cassey Timmerhaus, a seventeen year- old noble daughter, whose goal is to find my worth and guarantee my own happiness. In worth comes opportunities, in opportunities comes wealth, in wealth comes love, in love comes happiness, and in happiness, I can die blissfully. But the path to self- realization was harder than I presumed. The unfathomable range of emotions, the twisted justice to prove yourself righteous, the betrayals, the sinful encounters and the fight for the honorable seat, are things I never expected but had to experience. "To honor your family is the noblest thing. How could you fail in such a task as easy as breathing?" I faced countless humiliation and disgrace; degraded by the people I call family. "I am sorry, but how could we dare tarnish a lady's hand by making her work for us, mere commoners? Surely she wasn't casted away to be like this. For a noble like her, it would be better to starve than sweat her palms." The rejections from those who once respected me ruined my valued trust. She once said that in this endless pit of woes, thy love shall save me. But, I doubt that. Even if I have love, will I be able to make it last? Will I be able to make him stay? Will I ever be worth of such fortune, when I am just a grass?
