Why Did Escanor Die

I paid Curtis Robinett 200 thousand dollars a month to be a standby blood donor. My fiancée, Eden May, thought it was a waste of money. So she reassigned him to work part-time as her personal assistant instead. When Curtis accidentally submitted my marriage license appointment as a divorce filing for the 99th time, I kicked open Eden's office door. She didn't even look up. "We're in no rush to get married anyway," she said calmly. "Curtis is just careless. That's how he's always been." Later, in the emergency room, I called Eden while doctors rushed around me, my throat shredded from yelling. "Where's my emergency medical kit?" I rasped. "What did you do with it?" Curtis answered instead, his voice warm and smug. "You mean the expensive leather bag you kept in the cabinet? I swapped it out for a large party snack box. It holds everything just fine, and honestly, it looks a lot more cheerful. "Ms. May's brother and sister-in-law are both career soldiers. Your bag didn't really match that image, so I thought this would be more appropriate." My vision dimmed. My hands shook as I told Curtis to come donate blood. Eden laughed softly and cut in, "Stop pretending you're anemic just to get attention. If you're actually sick, deal with it. You're at the hospital; I think the doctors are fully capable of keeping you alive. Curtis is afraid of needles. He's not coming." Then, she hung up. She didn't appear until the surgical lights finally went dark. "Curtis had me bring you chocolate milk," she said. "It's good for recovery. It's not that he didn't want to help. He just faints at the sight of blood." She placed a settlement waiver on my bed. "I was the one who told him not to come. That 200-thousand-dollar monthly salary is his pay as my assistant. It has nothing to do with you. You didn't have to call the police for that. Sign this, and I'll go get the marriage license with you." I thought of what I had just seen in the operating room. Eden's brother, Harvey May, was bleeding out on the operating table, waiting for a lifesaving drug that never came. In the final moments of surgery, he could do nothing but lie there and die. I looked at her and said evenly, "You're the immediate family. It's not my place to sign that."

The night before our wedding, word spread like wildfire through high society that my fiancee had thrown herself a bachelorette party with ten virgins. When I storm into the villa, I find her nestled in the arms of my chauffeur's son, her skin blotched with fresh red marks. "It's just a wild night before the wedding. You get that, don't you?" Melissa Young says. She looks up at me with indifference, not bothering to explain herself. I catch the smug challenge in the eyes of the man holding her. My eyes burn red as I hurl the wedding invitations to the floor. "The scandal is everywhere! Have you even thought about what tomorrow's wedding will look like?" I yell. "This isn't just about you and me. It's about the future of both our families' businesses! Call a press conference and explain yourself." She frowns, irritation flickering in her eyes, but gives a grudging nod. Yet the next day, the internet explodes with a new bombshell—the Zucker heir is impotent, leaving his fiancee unsatisfied. When I demand answers, Melissa puts her foot down, her voice dripping with venom as she says, "All I see now is Nicky." She snaps, "No matter how many times you threaten to pull your investments, my mind's made up!" In that moment, the last ember of love I feel for her goes out. I call my dad, my resolve steeled. "Cut off all funding to Young Group, and buy out every one of her partnerships at triple the price!"

Marry someone with a rare fertility gene. In my last life, my adopted sister Serena jacked my wedding dress and took my place at the altar. I exposed her right there in front of everyone.

I helped Serena with the veil and wished them a perfect life.

Ich war mit dem Wolfsgift Silbermondkraut infiziert, das sich langsam im Körper ausbreitete, und stand kurz vor dem Tod. Aber das einzige Allheilmittel, das mich retten konnte, wurde von meinem Gefährten Leo gekauft und meiner Stiefschwester Jane geschenkt. Weil er dachte, ich würde meine Krankheit nur vortäuschen. Ich gab die konservative Behandlung auf und nahm starke Schmerzmittel. Der Preis dafür war, dass meine Organe nach drei Tagen versagten und ich letztendlich starb. In jenen drei Tagen vor meinem Tod gab ich alles auf. Als ich Jane die von mir eigenhändig gegründete Pelzfabrik schenkte, lobten mich meine Eltern dafür, wie sehr ich doch meine Schwester liebte. Als ich vorschlug, die Gefährtenbindung aufzulösen, lobte mich Leo dafür, dass ich endlich vernünftig geworden war. Als ich meine Tochter bat, Jane von nun an „Mama“ zu nennen, sagte sie glücklich, dass ihre Mama Jane sie sowieso immer am besten behandelt hatte. Als ich Jane meine gesamten Ersparnisse übertrug, bemerkte meine Familie nichts Ungewöhnliches, sondern war nur zufrieden mit meinem Verhalten: „Endlich ist Anna nicht mehr so bösartig.“ Ich wusste nicht, ob sie es nach meinem Tod bereuen würden.
