"Sorry... I still can't help you to get out of that jerk's mansion."

Her red burnt cheek looked so painful. But she was still smiling sweetly at him. 

"My husband's house, Adi.."

He suddenly felt a little bit relaxed hearing that name coming from her.

"Adrian... Don't call me that."

That woman still wants to cool off the tension and tease Adrian again.

"So, Nadine can call you that?"

Adrian looks annoyed when she mentions that name.

"Olivia..."

"Okay... Okay... Give up. Just treat my wound."

Adrian looks satisfied with Olivia's decision.

"I have medicine in my room. Let's go there."

Without their knowing, Nadine had just arrived at that big house. She is just a minute away from them and when she is just in front of her husband's door, she hears a voice that she hates so much.

"You're really reckless... Your cheeks are more puffy than before."

"Ha ha.... Isn't it more cute Adi?"

Hearing someone other than her call Adrian's nickname made her blood boil again. 

She open the door furiously and with her menacing look asks them calmly.

"Oh... So you have the guts to bring your mistress here, Adi."

She presses the tone when she calls Adrian's nickname. Adrian shot Nadine with his death glare.

"Uh... Uhm.. Nadine.. He just helped me to treat my wound."

Nadine walks to Olivia and grabs her jaw. Pressed her cold hand to her face and nailed her red cheek.

"Hiish...."

Seeing Olivia feeling the pain. Nadine just snickering and throwing her face away.

"You just lost your baby and you want to make another one, Adi?"

Olivia seemed so shocked to hear Nadine's words.

"Adrian? Is that true?"

Adrian looks mad then shields Olivia from Nadine's threat.

"She is the one who took the baby away."

Nadine just shows her facade but Adrian's words pierce her broken heart.

"Olivia, I will send you to your parent's house after I settle my matter with this evil."

Nadine snickered again and with her cold words she just blurted out the word that made Adrian more angry.

"Me? Evil? That's better than a cheaty husband."

Adrian took his anger by dragging her out of his room. He shoved her without mercy and Nadine hit the wall. 

Her pride is bigger than her pain. She stood so proudly facing her husband. Her admiration for his warm attitude had gone away a long time ago. Now she has just seen a man with a cold face protecting his lover from his evil wife.

"We will settle our account when I'm back. You seem not in good condition right now."

Again she mocked her husband's words.

"Like you care! We can settle here, right now. I've lost everything so there's not much left that I wanna hold."

She is staring at her husband's honey eyes, searching for the warm gaze that he always gives whenever he sees Olivia's smile.

But she just sees a pool of cold lake in his eyes.

"If you had never been in my life, you wouldn't have lost it all."

Desperate, angry, jealousy burns her logic. Her usually calm demeanor losing its track, she finally breaks down in front of her dreamy husband.

"I know you will blame me! Ha ha ha...."

Adrian remains silent and doesn't want to confront his broken wife.

"Who won't blame evil like me? The one who forced you into this hell marriage is me!"

Seeing Nadine begin to be frustrated again, Adrian tries his best to calm her down.

"Nadine..."

But it just fuels her fire.

"Who is the one that made your former lover marry a jerk like Alex? Huh? Me!!"

Olivia hears Nadine shouting her husband's name but she is just so scared to get out of that room.

"Calm down...

He is trying to grab Nadine's arm but she refuses his touch.

"And then who is the one who manipulated your aunt's treatment so it became late?"

Adrian is still trying to grab Nadine but she always shoves his hand. And began frantically like a mad man.

"Na-....."

Nadine shushes Adrian, stopping him from spilling any words.

"Ssssh... Let me talk. I'm not done yet, Adi. Please...."

Pleading with her teary eyes, she just wanted to let out her frustration. She begins stepping back, scared that Adrian will catch her.

"And can you guess who is the one who made your father's cute little company bankrupt?"

Adrian wants to make a comment but Nadine stops him again.

"Ssssh... Ssssh let me guess... Oh, it's me again. And for that, I've got a bonus that will cause your father to death. Ha ha ha..."

Adrian steps forward to hold Nadine, but she still rejects his action. On the other hand, she steps back further away to nearly at the end of stairs. 

"Adii.... I'm tired of getting your attention."

Her voice becomes too weak, her small shoulder shaking because she is beginning to sob. Adrian, who knew this was his chance, took his step towards his mad wife and would fall any minute if she took the wrong step. But it's too late, Nadine pushes Adrian further away and begins shouting again.

"And guess who killed your innocent baby boy Adi?"

With her broken smile and her hoarse voice she answers her own question. 

"It's me! Me, Adi! This mess happened because of me!!!"

Adrian quickly ran away to grab her because he knew that she would fall if she kept moving backwards. But when she ends her sentences it is likely she wants to end her life too. She took one step back and began to fall on the cold stairs. She doesn't know how many times she bumped on the edges of stairs or how many times her head hit the stairs. She just sees her world spinning and stops when she reaches the bottom of the stairs.

"If I knew I would lose all of it, I would have let you go from the beginning." 

Those were the last words Nadine said before collapsing from falling down the stairs. But her mind still remains awake.

'Maybe I will meet the Lord of Hell.'

Nadine thought it was the end of her life. And when she opened her eyes, hell would await her.

"Wait.. why is hell so comfortable?"

With her eyes still closed, she is touching the soft fluffy fabric that covers her body. And when she opens her eyes, she sees the ceiling at the top of her face seems identical with the one that decorates her gorgeous room. 

"And why is it similar to my room?" 

She is trying to touch her head, body and her arm. Because the last time she remembers, she is bouncing all over the stairs like a free ball falling from a mountain.

"Huh! No pain."

Beep beep beep beep beep 

She immediately searched for her phone to turn off her alarm. When she found it and turned it off, she seemed to have a heart attack.

"Whaaat!!!!"

    "Whaaaat!!!" In disbelief, she checked her phone again. Still not satisfied with that. She checked the message on her phone. "God... This must be a joke!" She ran to her door and went around her big house. Every time she meets her housekeeper she will get the same answer. "Are you sure?" The old housekeeper looked confused at her young miss's weird question. "Ye... Yes.. Miss Nadine. Tomorrow is your wedding day." Shocking and terrifying, she went back to her room. Her phone suddenly rang and she just ignored the call. Biting her nail to dismiss her shock, she is still trying to process what happened to her. But suddenly she laughed frantically. "If You want me to pay for my sin, choose before I've forced him to marry me." She is biting her nails nervously again and begins to think. "I separated him with his lover once to marry me.

    "Miss... We have arrived." Her driver's voice makes her wake from her past life memory. "Oh... Thank you Jim."His driver looked so shocked and gave her a question that would make Nadine laugh very hard. "Miss?" Nadine stopped her hand from opening the door. "Yes Jim, does it matter?" Jim looked so nervous from the side mirror. That old man tried so hard to keep his shaking voice. "Uhm... Mmm... Am I fired?" Nadine looks so confused. "Come again?" Jim looks more terrified and starts to panic. "I'm sorry if I made a mistake. Please don't fire me.""Jim.... What are you talking about?"Jim still looks so scared. "You never say thanks to us, especially to me. Maybe I have made you mad. Or I make a mistake. I'm so sorry but don't fire me."Reality suddenly hit Nadine.

    "Miss Nadine.... What are you doing now?"Nadine still sits in her chair thinking about what we should do to confront Adrian for cancelling their wedding."Anna, can you help me?"Anna looks at her boss with confusion. This is the first time she has heard Nadine wants some help from her. Usually she will say, 'I can handle it' or 'I'll do it myself'.She didn't get any response from Anna. Nadine looked at her again and called her name several times."Anna..."Anna came to her senses and began to focus on Nadine's order."Did I say something wrong?"Anna begin to get confused again."Wrong? Huh? There is no such word in your dictionary."Didn't realize that she said it out of loud. She gasped and immediately closed her mouth. Nadine just chuckled and then gave her a warm smile."Ha ha... Then let me add that word to my dictionary today."Anna feels a little bit embarrassed about her words. A girl who's 8 years younger than her is teasing her now. Usually she likes to boss around and

    Adrian snickered at Nadine's question. He suddenly closes the door in front of Nadine. But Nadine blocked the door with her legs. Nadine winced a little because the door hit her leg."Ouch!"Adrian instantly released his door and Nadine took the opportunity to barge in and left Adrian speechless with her action."Can you please not disturb me!"Nadine ignored his shout and just went to his house. That house looks so small compared to her house, but it feels so warm inside there. She remembered in her past life he brought her to that house once. And that's because she forced him to do that.Wanting to get close to her husband's aunt and bonding with his other family members, she forced him to take her to his parent's home. But that didn't go as she had planned. Because, like this time, there is her love rival, Olivia. Both of them, sitting at that house, have a good chat with Adrian's aunt.

    Nadine then invites Adrian to get into her car. Adrian seemed to refuse to sit in the same place as Nadine. Without permission, he immediately opened the front door and sat down next to Jim. In the car, Jim looked confused by Adrian's behavior. Nadine just nodded her head and sighed, letting Adrian sit in the front seat. "Jim... You already know who he is? He's Adrian Miller." Jim didn't know what to say. But Adrian kindly smiled at him and shook his hand."Hello Jim. I'm Adrian Miller." Jim looked even more panicked and shook Adrian's hand again. Jim only smiled gently to hide his nervous face. "Jim, please take us to the Prime Care hospital." Adrian immediately looked back. "How do you know where my aunt is being hospitalized?" Jim, who was scared to see the drastic change in Adrian's attitude, just sits there waiting for Nadine's orders. Nadine took a deep breath and answered Adrian. "Haaaah... Is that important now?

Adrian looks very angry and yells at him loudly."Miss Merrick!! You're taking advantage of other people's weaknesses again to get what you want!! How lowly!!"Nadine was shocked to hear the curse from Adrian. Why do her good intentions always look bad in Adrian's eyes? Nadine could no longer contain her emotions."Can you stop!!! I really want to help you!!!"The sound of their bickering was so loud in that quiet hallway that a nurse who had just come out of the room warned them."If you two want to fight, choose another place. There are a lot of patients here who need rest."Adrian, who was embarrassed, tried to apologize to the nurse in front of him. Nadine, who saw Adrian off guard, immediately pulled h

But not to praise Nadine, but to mock Nadine."Huh! I don't know anything about their financial reports. I just made a fake offer of partnership to them. So they incur a lot of operational costs and lose money."Nadine denies her father's accusations. She had absolutely no idea of ​​their internal financial matters. All she knows is that Resort Miller is busy looking for partners to expand their business."Never mind... Anyway, the reason I accepted their offer is because of you."Nadine was again shocked by her father's statement."Me?""Yeah... Because I don't want you to be called a crazy woman who chases her love.

It must be because of that."Nadine's loud voice, which seemed to remember something, made Ellen and Adrian immediately turn to look at her. When she realized that Adrian and Ellen were giving her a confused look, she gulped and tried to find an excuse. "Ha ha... I seem to have found my problem at work."Nadine did her best to distract the people in the room. "Miss Nadine... You should enjoy your honeymoon and stop thinking about work."Ellen shook her head and gave a little sigh, then turned her head to Adrian."You too... Don't just ignore your wife.

Of course, she had met Ellen before because she was the one who interviewed her in her previous life.But she had a feeling that she had seen her somewhere."I immediately took this job when I found out that the client this time was Adrian."Adrian laughed at Ellen's words. Nadine frowned at Adrian, who looked very familiar with Ellen. While waiting for Ellen's crew to prepare for the interview, she continued to observe Ellen. Feeling observed by Nadine, she turned to Nadine who was still standing not far from them."Aah sorry for my impoliteness. Adrian was a classmate from the same club in college."Ellen looked nervous then tucked her bangs behind her ear."Oh it's okay... You guys can continue."Nadine gave both of them the best smile.

And when you're bored you just throw it down."Nadine immediately sat up and carefully looked to the side."Hah!"Hearing Nadine shout loudly, Adrian immediately covered his ears in annoyance."How did you get here?"Nadine then shifted away from Adrian who was massaging his hand."Haaaah.... Looks like you had another nightmare last night.

I will continue my work. Enjoy your holiday."Adrian looked at Nadine's plate, which was barely even touched."Her plate is still full of food."Adrian was still a little bit worried about Nadine's joke. He never saw Nadine look so vulnerable even though usually she looked like she didn't have any fear at all."What a strange rich lady."That day Nadine spent her time mostly in her room. She just went out to get some food and she took it back to the room. She seems to have locked herself in her room to get busy to ignore her nightmare.It's pretty contradictory to her past life. Whi

I'm sorry my son... Really, your mother is really sorry."The words kept repeating until Adrian was confused. He wanted to free himself from Nadine's arms but when he saw Nadine's body shaking from crying so hard, he finally let it go.This strong woman, who doesn't seem to know the word surrender and is able to do anything to get her wish, looks so weak and broken in front of Adrian."Nadine?"Nadine was still sobbing."Nadine?
