My heart turned cold as ice.

I hadn't expected that, even after a year together, he still harbored such doubts.

"Edwin, have you been suspecting me all this time? Are you trying to get back at me?"

"Don't read too much into it. But it's true that you didn't bleed on our first night together, and neither do you have any evidence to prove your virginity. As for me, even if I did kiss her, I wouldn't have lost anything."

I cried and shouted, hitting him hard. "Edwin, you're inhuman. I've given you everything, and yet you accuse me like this. I've never even touched a boy before. How could you do this to me..."

As I spoke, I began to sob uncontrollably.

Back then, I was as naive as a fool. All I wanted was to prove my innocence to him, but I had forgotten the underlying reason behind it all – his infidelity.

That night, I cried for hours. Edwin smoked three cigarettes in front of me. And then, without saying a word, he pinned me down on the bed again.

This time, I didn't struggle.

    Breaking up with him had crossed my mind several times.However, he took care of me so well that it made it difficult to leave. He handled all household chores - laundry, cooking, and even washing my underwear. He would prepare warm foot baths and even squeeze toothpaste onto my toothbrush in advance.He went as far as offering to do my homework for me if I wanted.In those moments, I couldn't help but think that if he could genuinely change and stop making mistakes, perhaps I could find it in me to forgive him.After all, he was my first love. And first love was always unforgettable.Little did I know, he also had an unforgettable first love, one that he had never forgotten for a single moment.As the sophomore year came to an end, my constant arguments with Edwin caused a shift in my perspective on many things.It suddenly dawned on me that I hadn't made any genuine friends during my two years at school.

    "Why are you coming back so late?" he demanded.Seeing me silent, he grew angrier. "You're not allowed to participate in those activities anymore, hanging out with guys and girls all day while touching and cuddling each other. What kind of image is that?"I sneered and confronted him, "Who do you think you are to control me?""Who am I? The fact that you're mine! If I say no, then it's no.""I'm yours? Do you think of me as an object that can only belong to you? My parents gave birth to me but didn't restrict me this much."He seemed to find amusement in my words and scoffed, "Harper Moulton, which part of your body haven't I touched? Do you think anyone else would want you if you left me? Only I'm foolish enough to have been cuckolded for so long."His words struck me with a dull pain in my heart.Yet, I didn't want to argue with him any longer. "Then let's break up. You don't have to put up with it anymore."He immediately became anxious. "What do you mean? How can you just talk abou

    Because of the argument this time, Edwin relaxed his control over me. With his permission, I could participate in club activities and dance, but there were three rules to follow.The first rule was no physical contact with male classmates, including holding hands;the second rule was no revealing clothing during performances;and the third rule was not to eat or celebrate with the club members after the performance.Although the three rules had forbidden me from joining most of the campus activities, I still found myself enjoying my time.Time passed, and half a year went by. Edwin continued to spend my money casually, but there were no major expenses.Moreover, I never found out that he was in contact with Verne. Therefore, as half a year passed, I gradually began to trust him again.In the second semester of my junior year, my classmates began to search for internships.I had agreed with my family, promising that I would go back to my hometown, Atlantica City, for an internship, and

    Half a month had passed, and my period still hadn't come.Panicked, I bought a pregnancy test. As expected, there were two familiar red lines.Fear instantly took over my heart. The trauma from the last time felt fresh.But when I showed Edwin the test result, he casually said, "What's the big deal? Just have a baby."I couldn't believe it."We're not even married. How can I have a baby?""Then let's get married. We'll go register next month.""Edwin!" I had thought that one day, he would propose to me.But what I had imagined was him doing it in a romantic and warm manner, not like this with me holding this thing in my hand while he was completely indifferent."What's wrong? Don't you want to get married? Then just get rid of it. It's not like it's the first time," he said.His tone made it seem like it was all my fault and had nothing to do with him.I bit my lip and said, "This time, I want to go to the hospital.""Then go. I don't care." He continued playing his game without even l

    It turned out that in the eyes of my classmates, Edwin had average looks and family background, with a vain and ostentatious character. He also had a strong chauvinistic personality.In any respect, he wasn't even worthy of tying my shoes."I can't understand what's wrong with you. How did you let him hold you for three years?" Otelia asked in disbelief.I didn't say anything and continued to cry.When we arrived at the hospital, Otelia begged me to stop crying."You look like a minor. If you cry when you enter the hospital, the doctor might even call the police."I had to hold back my tears. With her by my side, things seemed a lot easier.Otelia helped me with everything. When we finally sat outside the operating room, she even jokingly said to me,"It's a good thing that I have long hair. If I cut it short and came with you, the doctor would definitely scold me."I thanked her, but I was still thinking about Edwin.I checked my phone, but there were no missed calls or messages from

    He brushed over the thing casually, without asking if I was in pain or tired or what I wanted to eat. After I finished the porridge, he took the bowl and went to the kitchen.I followed him to the kitchen. "My parents have arranged a job for me."His hand stopped in the air, so I hurriedly said, "But I haven't agreed yet. I want to hear your opinion first."He turned around. "My opinion? Why? Didn't we already discuss it?""What did we discuss?""To intern here."My lips parted. But before I could say anything, he turned away impatiently and continued washing the dishes."I don't get it. What on earth are you thinking every day? After I managed to arrange jobs for us, you just claimed to leave. Fine, just go if you want. Then we'll break up and never see each other again."I was stunned. "You found an internship company already? What kind of work is it?""It's none of your business. Anyway, you're leaving. I don't need your concern."I hurriedly hugged him from behind and explained anx

    "I'm always this early every day. You're early today too. Did you sleep well last night?"Verne's thick eyelashes trembled slightly. "No, I couldn't sleep. My mind was preoccupied.""Did you take the melatonin I bought for you? Also, I changed the curtains to blackout ones. How effective are they? Oh, by the way, those SKII face masks that I ordered for you last time..."With each uttered word, my heart sank deeper.Verne flicked her straight black hair impatiently, and her gaze landed upon me.Her eyes flickered for a moment, making me think that she might call out my name in the next second.But instead, she looked at Edwin with confusion and asked, "Ed, is this girl new?"Only then did Edwin acknowledge my presence.His smile vanished from his face, replaced by a look of annoyance as if his good mood had been disturbed."She's Harper Moulton," he said flatly."So, you're Harper?" She walked over to me with a smile and extended a hand.My mind went blank, and mechanically, I reached

    However, I dared not inquire or speak too much.On the one hand, I believed Edwin's words and didn't dare to have too much contact with him at work, nor did I dare to have close relationships with my colleagues.On the other hand, I continued to deceive myself, thinking that Edwin's attitude towards Verne was solely because of work.Edwin possessed the ability to persuade me to believe anything. Consequently, I found myself pregnant once again.The pregnancy came less than half a year after the previous one, and I panicked once again.Rumors circulated that repeated abortions could inflict internal damage and potentially impact one's future fertility.However, there was a question echoing in my mind. Even though I stopped taking the pills, I still prepared condoms for him. And he used them every time we had sex.Thinking it over, I started to have doubts.So, I opened the drawer and took out those unused square packets.I carefully felt them with my hands, and there were a few raised d

But before she could even speak to Edwin, she was taken away by doctors from the mental hospital.The doctor told the police that, for reasons of public safety, she needed to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.Edwin wanted to explain that it was all a misunderstanding.But the facts spoke louder than words. Who would believe him?I sat in my black Porsche, watching Edwin and his mother scream and reach out to each other, desperately trying to hold on.But they were mercilessly separated by the doctors and police officers.The white ambulance drove away, and the police left. Only the miserable wretch remained, kneeling on the ground, howling and weeping.Amara asked me, "Have you seen enough?"I nodded in satisfaction.The ne

    I took out a tall stack of money and placed it on the table. Gently pushing it toward him, I posed a single question, "Edwin, today I only want to hear one honest answer from you. Have you never truly loved me?"At that moment, there were only him and me in the room.Perhaps due to the relatively secure environment or the lure of money, Edwin unexpectedly joined me in reminiscing about the past.Gazing at the pile of money, he expressed remorse for his past actions and admitted to secretly spending hundreds of thousands of dollars behind my back."You know I don't care about money, and this sum means nothing to my family. So, approximately how much are these hundreds of thousands?"Without hesitation, Edwin replied, "Around eight hundred thousand."I nodded and opened the door. "You may leave now."Confused, he looked at me and then at the money. "What about the money?"I said, "You have to pay it back to me, of course."Only then did Edwin realize that I had tricked him. He rushed tow

    When he heard there was money involved, he hesitated. After all, in his view, shooting an advertisement was just a few shots. But not everyone could be a model.Therefore, while he hesitated, the agent urged him on, and eventually, he signed the contract.For the next half month, I had people take him to the pigsty every day, accompanied by the few male pigs with bad tempers.Even before finishing one ad, Edwin had already been beaten to the point of a swollen, nearly disfigured face.Meanwhile, another ad was being urgently shot.This one was for a chicken farm, and Verne was the model.Verne was going to wear a chicken costume, only showing her face. She would lie in the middle of the chicken flock on a throne, looking like she was enjoying herself.Hundreds of roosters surrounded her. There were bugs under the throne, so the roosters would go over to peck at them.Occasionally, bugs climbed onto her clothes. With the roosters pecking at her, Verne would scream and curse in frustrati

    I asked Otelia, "Are they together now?""Together? Are you kidding me? How can he afford that gold digger after leaving you? They're just pretending to be deeply in love. Edwin was kicked out of his management agency because of his involvement with a signed artist. Now, he can't even see Verne, let alone be with her.""Then what does he do for a living now?""He went back to work on the pig farm of his family."I laughed. Knowing that he wasn't doing well made me happy.But it wasn't enough.After hanging up the phone, I told Amara, "Amara, I want to go back there."Amara understood me very well, but she still had some complaints. "As long as you ask, our father won't let them escape no matter where they go. Why do you have to go back yourself?""I can't sleep peacefully unless I see them 'die' with my own eyes," I said.Amara didn't try to persuade me anymore. She took care of the company's affairs and informed my parents. The next day, we went back to Senovia City.I had been away f

    When I regained consciousness, I found myself lying in bed. My mother and Amara sat beside me, wiping away their tears together.Seeing me wake up, my mother cried even more sorrowfully."Harper, what have you been through in these past three years? Why didn't you tell me about it?"Amara was also crying and complaining, "Why didn't you tell us all this? Whatever you've been through, we were here to support you. Why did you suffer alone?"At that moment, I couldn't bear it anymore and cried as I told them everything about Edwin and me.My father never came into the room, but he heard every word I said.Descending the stairs, he headed towards Edwin and delivered such a powerful kick that it broke two of his ribs.Edwin screamed in pain as the men in black dragged him outside and threw him in the yard.As I heard everything from upstairs, I looked out of the window for details. From where I stood, I saw my father's men beating Edwin mercilessly while Edwin was like a lost dog.The men m

    My parents happened to be out that day, and I was alone in the screening room watching a movie. Just during the film's emotional climax, the maid told me that someone was looking for me outside.I was surprised. I had just returned a week ago and hadn't even greeted my old classmates. Who could it be?And then, the moment I saw Edwin, it felt as though the world was collapsing once again.I couldn't comprehend why, despite all my efforts to escape, I couldn't shake him off.More importantly, I hadn't told my family about what had happened between him and me. But given his character, he would undoubtedly expose everything.How could I face my deeply loving parents and Amara?Trembling, I attempted to close the door. But he stopped me with one hand and pushed me into the house.He gazed up at the three-story villa, his eyes filled with undisguised greed, and greeted me hypocritically."Honey, why didn't you tell me when you came back home? You made me worry."Witnessing his attempt to ap

    After hanging up the phone, Edwin seemed unsatisfied, grabbing my face and biting my lips forcefully.Unable to continue the act, I pushed him away. He sneered, thinking I had been awakened by his bite.That afternoon, while he napped, I left the apartment and checked the balance on the card. Not surprisingly, there was a transfer of a hundred thousand dollars in the morning.Quietly, I broke the card in half and threw it into two separate trash cans far apart.Then I called the bank manager to report it as lost.At that moment, I finally made a decision.I borrowed money from Otelia and booked a flight for 10 o'clock that night. When I called, Otelia found out that I still hadn't left Edwin after all this time, and her silence was so loud.Through tears, I smiled and said to her, "Don't worry. It's all going to end. Thank you for helping me so many times."After hanging up, I returned to the apartment. He hadn't gotten up yet.That night, he absentmindedly made a pot of rice porridge

    He didn't turn on the lights, heading straight for the bathroom as soon as he entered.As he unbuttoned his shirt, I switched on the light.Approaching him, I pulled open his shirt and took a good look at his body. As expected, there were several lipstick marks on it, even a few kiss marks on his neck.There was even a clear set of nail marks on his back, prompting vivid memories of his recent intense encounter.He seemed a bit flustered but tried to maintain composure, furrowing his brow as he asked, "Are you staying up so late out of craziness? Didn't I mention that I was working overtime?""Working overtime at a restaurant? Is that code for confessing your love to your goddess and slandering me? Is the result of your 'overtime' ending up in bed with her at a hotel? Edwin Kent, you make me sick."Before I could finish, he slapped me across the face."Have you been following me?

    Edwin hastily defended himself, his tone filled with sincerity and urgency. "No, I actually wanted to break up with her long ago. She's been clinging to me. It's my fault for taking care of her so well."But I don't love her at all. You know, I've loved you since high school, and it hasn't changed for so many years."I heard Verne chuckle. "If that's the case, your little girlfriend will be devastated. By the way, does she know about the money you've given me?"Edwin said indifferently, "What difference does it make if she knows? We can just break up, and I don't care.""Edwin, I never expected you to spend your girlfriend's money so generously while treating her like this."Edwin grew anxious once again. "I'm not. Obviously, it's she who can't live without me. I've mentioned breaking up with her three times, but each time she becomes desperate. I can't be harsh with her.""Then you want me to be your girlfriend? Aren't you afraid she'll kill herself?""I can't worry about that anymore
