Jealousy Burns
We're releasing balloons on Christmas Eve when Milton Jenning's lover deliberately sets off fireworks. They explode on me, burning me severely.
My back, already torn and raw from skin grafts for her, becomes even more of a bloodied mess.
However, I don't ask Milton for help. Instead, I shield a recently reunited heir of a wealthy family beneath me, risking everything to save him.
In my past life, Milton kicked me in the back and told me not to stand in the way of him taking his lover to the hospital.
"Is it funny to you to use a child as a cover, Larissa? Even if you're pregnant, you and your baby are just walking skin providers for Rita! I must've spoiled you—how dare you do something as heinous as this!"
I was blacklisted by all hospitals and ended up dying while pregnant. My heart was filled with hatred as I breathed my last breath.
When I open my eyes again, I see Rita Atkinson secretly aim fireworks at the night sky and set them off. I hear her laugh manically as she says, "You and your child can die together!"
