Tiga hari sebelum pernikahan, saat aku merapikan barang-barang lama, aku teringat kapsul waktu yang pernah aku kubur bersama Cedrius sepuluh tahun lalu. Namun setelah mendengarnya, wajah Cedrius langsung menegang. Dia menasihatiku agar tidak pergi, sambil berkata, "Sudah terlalu lama berlalu, mungkin sudah digali orang." Aku tidak terlalu memikirkannya dan pergi sendiri ke almamaterku. Tetapi di lokasi penguburan itu, aku justru menggali lima kotak besi dengan ukuran yang berbeda-beda. Dua di antaranya adalah milik aku dan Cedrius yang kami kubur sepuluh tahun lalu, sudah penuh karat. Tiga sisanya, satu juga dipenuhi karat, sementara dua lainnya masih sangat baru. Pada kotak lama itu, terukir nama Rosaline. Di atasnya tertulis: [Cinta rahasiaku adalah kekacauan batin yang hanya kujalani seorang diri. Cedrius, semoga kamu bahagia.] Aku teringat, dia adalah seorang teman sekelas perempuan yang tidak terlalu menonjol, duduk di bangku belakang kami. Sedangkan pada dua kotak yang masih baru itu, masing-masing terukir nama Cedrius dan Rosaline. Tanggal penguburannya adalah hari ini. Pada kotak milik Cedrius tertulis: [Penyesalan terbesar dalam hidupku adalah aku nggak bisa memberimu sebuah pernikahan.] Dan pada kotak milik Rosaline tertulis: [Penyesalan terbesar dalam hidupku adalah aku nggak bisa secara terang-terangan mengucapkan kepadamu satu kalimat: Selamat menikah.]

Once I became pregnant, I was hailed as the most precious woman in the underworld. My husband, the new Don of the Jenkins family, shut down an entire private hospital wing for my check-ups, while my father, the Collins Don, summoned every Michelin-starred chef in New York to the estate, just so I could pick whatever I craved. The baby I carried was destined to be the sole heir of the two most powerful mafia families. But on the day we were to sign the papers securing my child's inheritance, they both vanished. "An urgent family matter came up," my husband, Vincent, said, kissing my forehead. "We can finalize the child's inheritance when we get back. There's no rush." Shortly after they left, I received a link to an anonymous live stream. My father's voice came from the video, colder than I had ever heard it. "You're saying your marriage contract with Evangeline was never valid. Doesn't that make the child a bastard?" Vincent, lounging in a club, blew a smoke ring. Cradled in his arms was my half sister, Sarah. "Evangeline has always had all the love and affection. Her child will want for nothing." "Sarah has been mocked for her status for years. I have to make things right for her, give our child a legitimate name." In that moment, my heart seized, and I could barely breathe. Then my phone vibrated again. It was a text message: "Welcome home to the Gallo family, my queen." "Just give the word, and the child you carry will bear the Gallo name and become the most powerful heir in the American underworld."

"Shut down for rectification, fined $500,000, plus $300 compensation per customer. That’s the penalty from the Food Safety Bureau. Let’s see if you dare serve us gutter oil again!” Yves Larson, a part-timer at a construction site, sends me a provocative text purposefully, as though he's worried that I don't know what's going on. I just stare at the sign that says "closed for renovation", which is hung on the front door of my eatery. Never would I expect that the budget eatery that I've opened for the sake of the workers will be transformed into a blade that's aimed at me, thanks to the very same workers. That night, I sit in the apartment that my dad has left to me before his death. There, I spend the whole night smoking. Early the next morning, I head over to the bank and withdraw the money left behind by my dad, which is 260 million dollars. Half a month later, my eatery is open for business again. Work resumes at the construction site as well. Yves leads the construction workers to the restaurant at lunch. "I've taught him a good lesson last time. This time, I'm very sure that he won't have the guts to serve us cheap food made of shitty ingredients!" What he doesn't know is that the original eatery is already demolished. In its place stands a luxurious five-star restaurant. I stand in front of the main entrance as I perform a welcoming gesture to the workers. "This is a five-star restaurant that offers a private dining experience to you. The minimum bill for each table is 4000 dollars. You're welcome to dine here."

I never thought I'd end up severely injured and lose my baby on my wedding day. That day, I walked toward my husband full of excitement, only to watch him rush right past me and straight into the arms of his secretary. Confused, I turned around and saw someone in a wedding dress lying on the ground, blood pooling beneath her. It was his secretary, Quinn Fable. Steve York, my soon-to-be husband, panicked and scooped her up, but Quinn stared at me with tearful eyes, crying, “Summer, I ate the candy you gave me… Why would you want to hurt my baby? Please, Steve, save our child… please…” Steve was beside himself with rage. Without a second thought, he kicked me hard in the stomach. I collapsed into the champagne tower, shards of glass embedding into my skin. Blood poured from between my legs. Yet, they still clung to each other, crying bitterly as if I didn't exist. When the ambulance arrived, they didn't even hesitate to push me aside to save her first. “Forget about her!” Steve shouted. “Save Quinn! She's lost so much blood. She must be in terrible pain! As for Summer, that vicious witch… she deserves to die!” Due to the delay, I suffered a ruptured uterus and missed the window for proper treatment. And as if that wasn't enough, Steve personally announced that our marriage was null and void. He marched straight to the clerk's office with Quinn and made it official. On my ICU bed, I received a text from him. “Pack your things and get out. Quinn wants you out of her sight.”
