Oliver Twist Summary

Le jour des cinq ans de mon fils Oliver, je lui avais préparé son gâteau préféré, sans allergènes. Et ce jour-là, il m'a dit qu'il voulait que Rachel, la secrétaire de mon mari, soit sa maman. Pendant que je travaillais sans relâche pour offrir à mon mari et à mon fils une vie privilégiée, ils sont allés au parc d'attractions avec Rachel, pour manger des glaces ensemble. Même après ça, j'ai continué à faire des heures supplémentaires pour soigner mes patients… alors qu'à la maternelle, Oliver a nié que j'étais sa mère, affirmant que Rachel était sa "maman biologique". Et pourtant, j'ai continué à croire leurs belles paroles. Même quand j'ai découvert une vieille photo de Derek et Rachel, prise bien avant que je ne rencontre mon mari. Je croyais qu'en tant que Guérisseuse en chef de la Meute de la Lune de Sang, je pouvais réparer n'importe quelle blessure… Mais certaines trahisons sont trop profondes, même pour la magie la plus puissante. Il est temps, désormais, qu'ils comprennent combien j'ai payé pour construire notre "petite famille parfaite". Il est temps qu'ils me rendent tout ce que je leur ai donné.

After having a crush on someone for 10 years, out of love, my father drugged his friend and placed him on my bed. When he woke at dawn the next morning, his eyes were ice-cold. But he still accept our engagement. However, life after marriage wasn’t as good as I thought. Mike Ashton would frequently fly abroad and stay there for a long time. I gave birth to our daughter on my own as I waited for him to return home. After four years, when I heard that he was returning home, I postponed everything and went to the airport expectantly with our daughter in my arms. Our daughter reached out her little hand and was hoping for a hug from him. He just looked at me indifferently and said in a cold voice, “I’m sorry, but I’m a neat freak.” From then on, my daughter and I would wash our hands at least three times every day and the house would be spotless. However, he still rarely came home and never gave our daughter a warm hug. That was until when I accidentally saw a video with Mike in it. “Mike, what do you think is the happiest thing in the world?” He answered casually, “I think it’s when I tucked Oliver into bed and dragged Jennifer into the bathroom when I was abroad last week.” The people around him all laughed, but my heart felt ice-cold. Jennifer Bundred was Mike’s ex-girlfriend who he still had an entanglement with and Oliver was her son. It seemed that he had been living with them during the time that he was abroad for the past four years. This fact finally made me give up all illusions. I left a divorce agreement for him, gave up my and our daughter’s identities, and went abroad to start a new life.

I always knew Wilbet was cruel. But I never thought he’d put a price on me. A marriage built on duty. A husband who thrived on power. And now, a contract that sealed my fate. To another man.

He never once looked at Wilbet. Only at me. And in his gaze, I saw it—possession. This wasn’t love. This wasn’t escape. This was the beginning of something far more dangerous.
