Why Did Sally Face Kill Everyone

I spend ten years helping my fiancé fight and claw his way to the top. Finally, he becomes the head of the local mafia. But once he has everything, he falls for another woman. Suddenly, he wants nothing to do with the promise he made to marry me. Just as he boasts about throwing her the wedding of the century, one of his men can't hold back his confusion. "Olivia stood by you through everything. Weren't you crazy about her? And now you're marrying someone else?" Joshua Harding snuffs out his cigarette, slowly turning the silver couple's ring he shares with Abigail Mauser between his fingers. "Olivia?" He scoffs. "She's got blood on her hands. How could she ever compare to my sweet, innocent Abigail?" The subordinate hesitates. "But Olivia's sharp. If she finds out and turns against you, then what?" Joshua frowns before smirking coldly. "Belcove is completely under my control. It's not like I'll lose it without her around." Little does he know I'm standing outside and listening to every word. I drop the medicine I brought him into the trash and pull out my phone. I text his biggest rival, Michael Sheridan. "Want Joshua's turf and his life? I'm handing them to you!"

Haunted by past trauma, locked in a toxic relationship she can't escape, and drowning under the pressure of school and a world that never cared to understand her, she begins to wonder if life is even worth staying for. No one sees her pain—until he does. The new boy, Kade, has his own shadows. He’s blunt, observant, and completely unafraid to call her out—making him an instant enemy. But when he overhears a moment no one was meant to witness, he realizes the truth: the girl everyone overlooks is barely holding on. As Kade steps deeper into her shattered world, their connection becomes a lifeline. But secrets run deeper than he imagined, and when Maren goes missing, no one believes she’s worth finding—except him. Fighting time, silence, and the lies that built her cage, Kade refuses to give up. Because sometimes, saving someone means proving they were never invisible at all. A heartbreaking, haunting, and ultimately hopeful story about survival, truth, and what it really means to be seen.

I'm on track to be a top student, but I end up taking the SAT twice. The first time, I score high enough to get into Westbridge University. The second time, my score qualifies me for Northfield University. Each time, I score over 1500. Yet when the admissions teams see my name, not a single school admits me. At first, I think it must be some kind of background check, certain they've found something in my record. But my parents are honest, hardworking people. They've never broken the law. They wouldn't even harm a fly. So I try a third time. My SAT score is 1580, and my GPA is still perfect. This time, I apply to Crestwood University, thinking I finally have it in the bag. The Crestwood University admissions officer arrives full of cheer, but the moment he sees my name, he freezes, immediately realizing there is no way I will be accepted. I rack my brain, trying to figure out what is wrong with my name. Why does seeing it make every school hesitate, even though my scores are perfect?

Binar bersimpuh dengan kesepuluh jarinya yang saling bertaut di depan dada. "Bunuh aku," lirihnya bersama bulir-bulir kepahitan yang membasahi wajahnya."Tidak sekarang, aku masih ingin bermain-main denganmu," bisik Rigel di telinga Binar dengan posisi menunduk. Pria itu menegakkan tubuhnya kembali, menarik gesper yang melingkar di pinggangnya hingga terlepas. Dengan seringai liciknya, ia layangkan gesper itu pada tubuh Binar yang semakin lemah."Berhenti!" pekik Binar memohon ampun. Namun, bukannya berhenti, Rigel semakin bersemangat mengukir bercak merah di tubuh wanita itu.***"Argh! Ayah ... tolong aku! Sakit!" Pekikan memilukan itu terdengar seiring tetes darah yang mengucur deras dari jemari mungil Leya."Berhenti memanggilku ayah! Kau harus tahu, aku tidak peduli akan kematianmu!"***Tak ada yang lebih menyakitkan bagi Binar saat ini, selain harus kehilangan sang buah hati, apalagi penyebab dari kematian buah hatinya adalah Rigel, pria yang teramat ia cintai. Di matanya kini, Rigel adalah jelmaan iblis yang telah membuatnya hanyut dalam tangis yang kian melimpah ruah, tertatih di atas bara api yang tak berujung, dan menghujamnya dengan ribuan anak panah beracun, serta tak pernah puas mengukir maha karya bertinta darah di tubuhnya. Rasanya, sakit sekali!Haruskah Binar bertahan dan memaafkan Rigel di saat terlampau banyak luka yang menganga di hati dan tubuhnya? Ataukah sebaiknya ia pergi, membuka lembaran baru, dan membuka hati untuk pria lain yang diharapkan bisa menjadi penyembuh lukanya?
