Crooked Arm

An emergency has just occurred at the hotel. William Davis, the mayor's son, suffers from cardiac arrest in the hotel. Unfortunately, there's nothing the doctor in his team can do about it. I happen to be vacationing nearby, so I quickly rush toward the scene. As soon as I rush into the lobby, the security guards quickly stop me. "A life is being saved at the moment. Unauthorized personnel aren't allowed to enter." I'm about to dig out my work badge when Lydia Sharpe, the intern tagging along, suddenly covers her mouth and shouts daintily, "Don't let her in! There's a scalpel and a syringe of anesthetics in her bag!" Everyone is shocked by Lydia's revelation. The security guards instantly have me surrounded while wearing vigilant looks. Sweat starts rolling down my face out of anxiety. "I'm the head of the cardiothoracic surgery department of Central City Hospital! I've heard about the patient's condition! He must undergo a thoracotomy right away!" The next thing I know, Lydia has snatched my bag out of my hands. Things such as the sterilized gloves, defibrillator, as well as life-saving medication are scattered all over the floor. Lydia steps on the one and only life-saving pill instantly. "I just heard you claiming that it's best if the mayor's son dies right away! Why are you still pretending to be a savior? "Hurry up and arrest her! I suspect she has something to do with the ongoing case! She's definitely a murderer!" The person in charge's expression shifts drastically. Soon, he pins me on the wall. "Detain her and inform the security department right away! This woman is suspected of being involved in a murder!" As I stare at Lydia, I can't help but tremble violently. Right now, I'm the only one in the entire city who can perform the surgery on William. Unfortunately, he can only last for another half an hour in his current condition.

Ça m’avait manqué… putain », murmura-t-il contre mes lèvres, tout en continuant de m’embrasser. Il ne me touchait pas brutalement. Ses gestes étaient précis et lents, comme s’il avait déjà décidé exactement de ce qu’il allait faire, et qu’il ne restait plus qu’à le faire. Il releva mon menton d’un doigt et me regarda avec assurance, comme s’il m’appartenait. — « Niko… » Ma voix sortit trop faiblement. Arianna a fui Nikolai Voss il y a cinq ans et ne s’est jamais retournée. Elle s’est construit une vie discrète, une nouvelle identité et un secret qu’elle protégerait au péril de sa vie. Mais Nikolai l’a retrouvée. Et il en a assez d’attendre. Il est puissant, impitoyable, et il compte récupérer chaque dette qu’elle lui doit — à commencer par ce soir.

Au moment où Océane se remariait, Thibault est apparu en pleurant devant chez elle. « Océane, je me suis souvenu de tout, tu ne peux pas épouser quelqu'un d'autre ! » « Maman, tu ne peux pas parler à d'autres oncles, papa sera jaloux ! », a dit un enfant adorable, tendant la main à Gaspard Leroux qui descendait de la voiture. « Papa, câlin ! »

Little did they realize that the person I'd been dating was actually Xander Lorne, the heir to one of the most prestigious families in Belhorn. Since then, my parents treated me a lot better than before. I successfully married into the Lorne family, too.

Haughtily, Marissa declares that she will rise to the ranks of the elite and crush me under her heel in this life. What she doesn't know is that the "elite heir" from the previous life is a gift I've painstakingly prepared for her.

Tu n'as pas peur qu'elle découvre un jour que la mort de son père et la faillite de sa famille, c'est toi qui en es responsable ? » « Sophie est déjà mariée avec Lucas. J'épouse Chloé, parce que je ne crains pas qu'elle découvre la vérité. Je l'ai aidée à rembourser ses dettes, et son père a eu des funérailles dignes. Je suis déjà assez bon avec elle. » C'est seulement à ce moment que j'ai compris que Jean aussi m'avait trompée. Du début à la fin, j'étais la seule à être sincère.
