My adopted sister, Jasmine, lost a million dollars in a bad investment scheme. On that fateful day, a disgruntled client showed up before us, furious that his entire life's savings had disappeared overnight and desperate to exact his revenge. When my boyfriend, Connor Sanders, showed up to rescue us, both of us reached a pleading hand to him in fear, but he swatted mine away and snarled, "Rosie, cut the crap! I know you're just faking, and you better stop, or else karma will come back to you! Jasmine has a heart condition, so I'll need to send her to the hospital right away!" Faking it? If only he knew the truth—that the unfortunate daughter born with a congenital heart disease was, in fact, me! On the day of my funeral, my boyfriend Connor wept upon my grave and blinded himself out of remorse. From that day onwards, Connor "Hawk-Eye" Sanders would live in eternal darkness.

In addition to the leaked video, other videos were circulating online. Most were cheap memes with Jasmine's face edited onto them, which played into her reputation as a lying, cheating snake.Jasmine's reputation was utterly ruined. No company would work with her. She was at the lowest point of her life, and it was all her fault.Connor flashed her a smile, and she visibly relaxed.I watched her coldly. I could read every single thought that was running through her mind. Connor hailed from a wealthy background, and even if he was no longer a financial bigwig, he was rich enough that the both of them could still live the rest of their lives in lavish luxury.Connor was her only chance.She turned and ushered Connor through the door, looking bashful. Connor strode into the house, feigning nonchalance.The moment Jasmine turned to close the door, he drew out a knife he had hidden and stabbed her in the back. One blow was not enough. He pulled the blade out and slashed her again and

Connor was in the hospital for three days until he finally regained consciousness. In the meantime, I hovered by his side, occupying my time with my own thoughts.'This is what your coldness and indifference earned you, you bastard!''Everything is clear now. You've been playing me like a fool all along. I was too naive and lovestruck to realize how you had taken my love for granted. I fooled myself into thinking that you were playing all these mind games on me because you were too scared of losing me. I was deluded into thinking I needed to prove myself and earn your love.'It wasn't until after my death that the veil fell off. I realized now that you've never loved me.'I was a fool, and look what it had cost me.'The first thing Connor did upon waking up was remove all the tubes attached to his body before storming out the door.He had taken just one step out the door when a guard, whom his family had stationed outside his room to keep an eye on him, stopped him. "Sir, your pa

My mother opened the door. In the split second that the door creaked open and her face peeked through the crack, I had to stifle an urge to hug her.Recalling the so-called heart attack that Connor had experienced when he walked through my body, I refrained from touching my mother for fear of inflicting the same pain on her.I could only hover as close to her as possible, trying to pick up a little of her familiar warmth.It had been less than a day since I saw her last, but she looked like she had aged decades. I could only imagine the despair and sorrow she had gone through over the last few hours.When she saw that it was Connor at the door, her expression turned to one of white-hot fury. She shouted, "Get lost!"Connor stopped her from slamming the door and pleaded, "Mrs. Clark, please! I want to see Rosie! Just one last time!"My mother seemed genuinely stunned to hear that. "You want to see Rosie? What gives you the right to ask for that? You wouldn't have left her for dead

The next moment, he walked straight through me like I was made of air.I was once again propelled to his side by an unknown force, and I watched as he paused, then slid to the ground, clutching his chest. His bloodshot eyes were narrowed, and he was whimpering, "Rosie, is this how it feels like to have a heart attack? Is this your way of punishing me?"I shook my head, smiling. "Now you can finally understand how I've felt, right? Too bad for you. This punishment is still nowhere near enough to compensate for your actions."Connor clung to the wall and slowly got to his feet. "Rosie! I don't believe it! I won't believe this until I see it for myself! This can't possibly be true! There's no way you're dead! The news must be lying!"With his fists clenched, he turned and sprinted out of the building.I was forced to follow him, and hatred seethed within me as I watched him trudge along the pavement, looking small and lonely.None of that would have happened if he had paused to chec

I might be the strongest woman he knew, but even that did not make him love me more.If I had heard that in the past, I would have gotten very upset, but at that very moment, it barely stirred me. If anything, it left a disgusting taste on my tongue.'Oh, Connor! You're going to have the shock of your life!'Jasmine, terrified that Connor would leave because of what she said about me, jumped from the bed and trotted over to him. She fell to her knees and grabbed his pants leg, trying to look frail.Connor lowered his head to look at her. Puzzlement flashed through his eyes.Jasmine had mastered the ability to cry on demand, so in the few seconds it took her to reach Connor's side, tears brimmed in her eyes. She gazed up at him, her eyes swimming with tears, and her voice trembled convincingly as she said, "Connor, you're the only one who's so kind to me. Every time my symptoms flared up, Rosie would throw a hissy fit to get everyone's attention away from me. I know my health is a

Zoe froze, stunned by Connor's audacity to question her.Sensing her moment of weakness, Connor said, "If anything, you should be ashamed of your behavior right now! You and Rosie are in charge of overseeing Jasmine's work, and yet you've allowed such a heinous crime to occur right underneath your noses. This screams a lack of professionalism, and if I were you, I'd resign immediately!"Not only that, but as close as you are with Rosie, I'm still her boyfriend. You should be ashamed of yourself for allowing her to flirt with other men during work. Moreover, her indecency has caused the company great misfortune. Worse, Jasmine got hurt due to your neglect. Shame on you!"I could hear Zoe take a deep breath from the other end of the line as if steadying herself. I cocked my head, trying to listen.'There's no way you can argue against him, Zoe! He's too far gone! There's no persuading him anymore!'Zoe's tone was icy when her reply came. "Do you know what happened to Rosie?"Connor

I watched Connor hesitate before slowly reaching for his phone.Tears slid down Jasmine's pretty face as if on cue, and she whimpered, "Connor, why aren't you picking up Rosie's call?"I snuck a glance at Connor. I was just as intrigued as she was.Connor's reply was cold and indifferent. "Jasmine, this was all Rosie's fault. She was in charge of overseeing you at work, and if she had warned you not to enter the stock market without prior experience, you wouldn't have lost that client's money and ended up in this predicament."Damn it! There was no talking sense into that man! He would always somehow find fault in whatever I did!I was utterly infuriated by that.I had already warned Jasmine a thousand times beforehand that she needed to seek a consultant's opinion before proceeding with any stock trading. Our company had a solid financial team under our belt, and it would be easy to pursue one of their professional opinions. I even made it very clear that she had to sign a contr

My soul was torn from my body due to immense sorrow. I hovered, invisible, above the heads of the people who had the misfortune to discover my corpse.One of my colleagues and closest friends, Zoe Sullivan, was at that moment bent over my stiff body, weeping like there was no tomorrow.I could not help but sigh. "I'm sorry, Zoe. I'm not worth your tears."I glanced at my body, wincing at my own swollen, bruised face. Goodness, I'm ugly even in death!What would Connor say if he saw that? Would he cry for me?I let my thoughts trail to the possibilities.Or perhaps he would hug Jasmine and say, "See? I knew she'd get payback!"I forced out a bitter smile at that. That possibility weighed on my shoulders like a sack of rocks. Before that day, I had not thought deceased souls could feel sorrow.Suddenly, I felt an immense pull, and when my vision cleared, I found myself sitting in a car, zooming through the traffic.I turned around and saw Connor and Jasmine sitting in the back s
Before I Go Chapter 1
Jasmine Clark's client had showed up before us out of the blue, wielding a dagger and demanding his money back. In the scuffle, the intruder accidentally slashed my forearm. The wound was not deep, but the threat shocked me nonetheless.Even the two guards shuddered when they saw what had happened. Life was usually peaceful, and that was their first encounter with such a ruthless assailant!The intruder seized the brief moment of stupor to kick me hard, sending me crumpling to the ground. "Get out of my way!"The searing pain took hold of me as I fell to the ground, my knees having given out beneath me.After he was sure I was out of the way, the intruder turned and aimed his dagger toward Jasmine.Suddenly, a silhouette darted into the room, shoving the intruder aside just in time so that the blade brushed Jasmine's skin. It was my boyfriend, Connor Sanders, having shown up just in time with his guards. There were so many of them that it took only a few seconds to restrain and di
