Revin menatap Lisa dengan perasaan jijik. "Aku tidak peduli sama semua sandiwaramu itu, Ular Betina. Sudah kukatakan kalau kau menggangguku, aku akan menghancurkanmu. Kau ingin kita menikah, kan? Maka pernikahan nerakalah yang akan kuberikan padamu." Mata Lisa berair mendengar ucapan dingin yang keluar dari mulut Revin. Padahal Revin-lah yang telah menghamilinya. "Ada apa dengan keningmu?" tanya Revin datar, melihat kening Lisa yang memarnya cukup mencolok. "Aku terjatuh," jawab Lisa berbohong dengan suara bergetar karena rasa sedihnya yang dia tahan. "Sayang sekali, kenapa kau tidak mati saja sewaktu terjatuh?" tanggap Revin dengan kejam. Lisa hanya bisa mengalihkan pandangannya dengan air mata yang langsung menetes. Rasanya Lisa benar-benar ingin mati saja setelah mendengar ucapan Revin yang tidak punya hati itu. Kalau dia mati pasti Revin akan senang sekali mendengarnya.

At my own wedding, the groom switched—Malcolm Lowell bailed, and the best man stepped in. Lumi, the Irving's real daughter, latched onto Malcolm's arm and smirked from the crowd. "I was just feeling a little low," she said. "Didn't think Malcolm would go this far for me." Malcolm raised a brow. "I just wanted to make her happy. You took her spot for years. Time to pay it back. This is for your own good." That's when it hit me—this whole wedding was a setup, a twisted show just to entertain Lumi. All because I was the adopted one. I'd lived in her place for over two decades. I didn't cry. Didn't freak out. I just took the new groom's hand, faced the priest, and said, "Keep going."

There's nothing more shattering than hearing that you're signed off as a collateral to marry in order to clear off your uncle's stupid debts. "So this is it" I pull the hoodie over my head and grab my duffel bag that is already stuffed with all my important stuff that I need for survival. Carefully I jump down my window into the bushes below skillfully. I've done this a lot of times that I've mastered the art of jumping down my window. Today is different though, I'm not coming back here, never! I cannot accept marrying some rich ass junkie. I dust the leaves off my clothe and with feathery steps, I make out of the driveway. A bright headlight of a car points at me making me freeze in my tracks, another car stops and the door of the car opens. There's always only one option, Run!
