Chapter 13 Ruined My Life Novels & Stories

Just two furious women who wanted me destroyed. And I I had nowhere left to run. Nowhere left to hide. No more comfortable lies to protect me. Just truth. Harsh. Brutal. Unforgiving. And I finally understood Understood what Elena had been trying to teach me all along. Consequences don't care about intentions. Love doesn't excuse betrayal. And choosing comfort over honor? That always ends in ruin. My ruin. Complete. Total. Deserved. I walked to the elevator. Hit the button. Going down. In every possible way. Down.

I asked again, then Mama's voice came through the phone. “You caused this, Natalie,” the voice didn't yell or scream it just sounded exhausted and strained. "You were so into whatever was going in your head and that led us to where we are now," Mama said through the phone and I could feel the weight of pain that followed it. “Mama, what do you mean?" I asked as my throat tightened painfully. “My seafood restaurant has been destroyed, the glass walks, the glass tables, plates, cups and everything valuable are all gone” No.

"I bought Blackwood six months ago. Fired the board. Replaced the staff. This isn't a state asylum anymore. It's mine. And you're my favorite specimen." Ignatius laughed. A harsh, dry sound that turned into a cough. "You checked yourself into your own prison? To sit in a white room and stare at a man who ruined you?" "Ruined?" Rafferty’s hand moved to the base of his neck. He traced the skin where the tracker used to be. A thin, white scar remained. "You didn't ruin me. You woke me up. And now that I'm awake, I find I have very specific tastes."

I ran. My heart hammered wildly as I yanked the door open and ran out of the powder room, not daring to look back. The noise of the party crashed over me again ,laughter, music, clinking glasses,but it all felt distant. I had had enough drama for one day. Enough shame. Enough of that man who had ruined me and now refused to let me forget it. I didn’t stop to find Daniel. I didn’t say goodbye to anyone. I just pushed through the crowd, ignoring the curious glances, and slipped out the side entrance of the mansion. Fresh air hit my face.

"Core is fried. Drives are physically damaged. The data's gone. All of it." Martin's legs gave out. He collapsed onto the floor, mumbling, "Gone… It's all gone…" The launch was an obvious failure. Not only was funding out of the picture, but the penalty clauses would also hit hard. The company was doomed. "Police! Over here!" A commotion erupted at the entrance. Martin suddenly snapped upright like he had been electrocuted. He pointed at me and shouted, "Officer, it's her! She sabotaged my company's servers and caused the business to collapse! Arrest her!"

She grinned. “Speaking of red faces, you still think about that shower thing a lot, don’t you?” Her eyes squinted at the corners. “Ugh… Mary,” I groaned and threw the pillow at her. “Stop. It’s complicated. I hate to think about it. But my body… it remembers. And then I feel guilty, like I’m betraying myself.” “That’s called being human, babe. Rich or poor, boys mess with your head the same way. Just don’t let the mansion swallow you. Come back here anytime. My bed is always open for ranting and cheap chips.” She laughed loudly and freely.

Had he played her? “it's not what you think” Dared quickly assured as he scooted closer to Aramide on the bed, the woman looked away, but she didn't turn away from him completely — that was a plus. “We used to be friends, till when... you know—” “Till I came into your life and ruined your relationship with her? Right? It's fine really, it's what I get from everyone. I came and ruined four lives when I was born. Truth is, as much as I didn't ask to be born into this world, I know that ninety percent of the things my mother, father, Blaire, and Tania went through could have been prevented if only I wasn't born. no one would have killed my mother for that trustee. I ruined another two lives whe

"What're you talking about?" "I am talking about the fact that you ruined my life!" He yelled at her, causing her to shudder. "Can't you see? You're nothing but ill-luck to this family from the very week we got married, I got into a terrible accident and stayed in coma for close to two years, Jardine! Then,I woke up to see I've lost everything! Adira's right; she isn't responsible for any of these - no. This is karma. And you are that karma! You were sent to ruin my life!"

I saw how serious he'd looked when promising me his future, how proud he'd been when his company had gone public, and how he'd comforted me and told me he would care for me for the rest of my life after I'd had to quit my job due to an illness. Then, I saw how he'd frowned as he'd watched me buy things. He'd forgotten that I'd never been short of money even before meeting him. After all, Mom had been a famous sculptor, so I'd inherited her fortune. Later, Sean had started complaining about how I didn't consider him when spending his money. I saw him change his phone's screen protector to one that had offered better privacy. I saw him look at his phone with a silly smile. I saw him frown whil

"You don't realize that you are the reason my brother died! I always lived missing him but now I realize that the best thing that could have happened to him is that he died so as not to live the damn life that I am condemned to live.” "Brandon, that's enough!” Mr. Lambert said. "You tried to drug me so that I could have a child with Crystal when you knew perfectly well that the contract stipulated that I would not touch her. I hate you, mom, I hate you! I let you do the security camera thing but I didn't think you were capable of that much.” Enrique and Mr. Lambert's eyes were wider than normal. They couldn't believe what they were hearing there.
