Paying for My Sin with 99 Lovers
I'm famous in the rich wives' society for having an ostrich-like personality—cowardly and often loves escaping from reality.
In my three-year marriage, I've personally conducted cosmetic surgeries on 99 substitutes of Callum Holden's first love, Alice Teller.
Veronica Dane, the 99th substitute, stares at her reflection in the mirror in delight. There's a trace of mockery in her eyes at the same time.
"Mrs. Holden, I heard that you've been alone throughout your marriage. What a shame… To think that the nation's best plastic surgeon can't work on altering her own face.
"In order to thank you for your efforts, I'll give you a glimpse of Callum's bedroom performance when the time comes. How about that?"
I tune out Veronica's mocking words. After all, I've gone through similar situations 98 times in the past, and I have fought back before.
But all Callum said to me was, "You owe me this much, Talia. You can never finish atoning for your sins, even if it takes you your entire life!"
The thing is, he has forgotten that I've given him 99 substitutes, just as I had promised.
Now, I will never go looking for the love that is never mine, to begin with.
