Chapter 20I don't know if Luke is mad at me or not, but after he left that morning, we never met again and today he should have returned to England, he only answered my question last night coldly.Should I call him? He must be at the airport.But what if he ignores my call?I don't need to do this, we agreed not to put feelings in this matter.Sarah, what's wrong with you? Why do I need to feel uncomfortable being treated like this by him?"Sarah, are you in there?" I heard Rosie's voice calling me before she opened my bedroom door, she had never been like that before."What's wrong?""Nothing, I just wanted to know about your plan and Luke?" Rosie said before sitting on my bed."Up until now, everything has been going well, why?""I shouldn't have looked into the Smith family but I was curious enough and I found this," Rosie showed me a picture, it was a file that she scanned but I didn't understand what the file was.“What is that?”“This is the list of the Smith family’s inheritan
Chapter 21After trying to forget the memories with Arthur, it felt harder than I imagined, even every time I forgot him I only remembered him and the memories appeared more often in my head.How could it not be? The memories he built to make me submit to him were indeed very perfect, but it was so disgusting if I imagine it now.That stupid girl, I wanted to curse her in front of her face, but that was me, me who used to admit how stupid I was.That day Rosie didn't go to work, she was at home and busy cleaning the entire room after making breakfast for me, the girl was quite diligent, or maybe because she was still young? Ah, not really."Have you eaten?""Yes, I had breakfast first because I wanted to clean up," Rosie said.I saw the girl going here and there with a vacuum cleaner in her hand, the TV was also on so I could watch it, but this time Rosie didn't watch the news, she watched all the variety shows, that kid is unpredictable.Just finished washing my dirty dishes, I saw R
Chapter 22Walking into the building, some people there greeted me, bowed their bodies, and welcomed me warmly, I never imagined it would be this easy to get back what I lost before.Mr. Derick walked beside me he is the owner of the company, and I am just someone who is tasked with helping him, let's call me his daughter. He is Mary's best friend, Derick was willing to help me after I told him everything and mentioned Mary's name in front of him, their ages seemed not much different, I could see the worry on Derick's face every time I mentioned Mary's name.The man took me to the 52nd floor where his room was and my room would be later because I would work with him so we would always be seen together. Seeing him was like seeing my father, ah I miss him so much, it's been a long time since I came to his grave.Derick took me into his room, the place was really big and clean, with a large window right behind his desk. The whole city seemed to be visible from there.“Sit down, I don’t n
Chapter 1One month before the day…Sarah’s POV“Look at you Sarah, you’re completely different from the first time I saw you here, you’re lucky 10 years isn’t a long time,”That was Billie, one of my friends in this cramped room, she was the first one to beat me up when I passed through these annoying iron bars.I can’t believe it’s been 10 years that I’ve shared air with them, now I only need to wait one month before making that bastard pay for everything he’s taken from me.“Hey red hair, come here,” Mary called me, she was a rich old woman, she was in there for killing her ex-husband when she found him having an affair with her own best friend, she was sentenced to life in prison.“What’s wrong?” I just turned to her from where I was.“Remember what I told you, use all that’s left, and make him regret what he did to you, he’ll have to kneel before you like you always did to him,” Mary said.“Don’t worry, I’ll handle it,”Yes, of course, I’ll handle it, I have to make sure that guy
Chapter 2My eyes opened wide when my phone startled me, I realized I was not in my room, I was still on the sofa with the window open but the difference was I couldn't feel the cool wind touching my body but the heat from the sun shining right at me.I looked at my wall clock above the TV, and my eyes widened even more, it was almost 1 pm, how could I sleep that long in this position?"Damn it!"I looked here and there, for my phone, but I couldn't find it, I was frustrated because I never woke up that late, I chose to clean myself first before looking for the damn phone again, luckily Arthur had tidied up the table and thrown away the trash so that made my job a little easier.When I finished taking a shower, I came out of the room and heard my phone ringing, I looked for the source of the sound and I found it waiting for me under the sofa, I immediately took it because Arthur called me, he must be worried because I didn't reply to his message.“Hello baby, I’m sorry, I overslept, I
Chapter 3 Today it was raining quite heavily, I was still standing in front of my workplace because I didn't bring an umbrella, Arthur should have picked me up and we would spend time at my house like usual but this time it was the same as last week, he would come to the apartment after his business was finished, and I was stuck here. I should have called him, no matter what it would have been better if we went home together but this is me who doesn't like to disturb his work because I feel indebted, he has done a lot for me, even fulfilling my needs and who am I? I can't understand his busyness, very selfish. I looked at my watch, it was almost 8 pm, I looked into my workplace and Jodie was still busy there, more and more customers were coming, and if I stayed there I would only be stuck forever, so I decided to run towards the bus stop, even though in the end I would get soaked but I could warm my body at home. "To hell with this rain!" As I ran towards the bus stop, suddenly s
Chapter 4“Wake up baby girl,”I heard the voice faintly, Arthur’s voice right in my ear before finally showering me with many kisses on my face, my eyes slowly opened and his face was in front of me with my favorite smile.“What time is it?”“8 am, you fell asleep on the couch as usual so I brought you to your room,” Arthur said.“Oh really? I waited for you last night but you didn’t call me,” I just grumbled and sat on the bed, leaning my body on the headboard and looking at him with a pout, I was just teasing him but honestly it was also part of my feelings.“I’m sorry baby, it was my fault because I didn’t call you but it was because my phone was dead and I came here immediately after I finished my business, and found you on the couch, my girlfriend is so adorable,” Arthur said while stroking my cheek, making me blush.“But wait, how did you get in here?”“I never forget your birthday,” Arthur said.“Then why do you always knock or ring the doorbell if you know the code?”“Well th
Chapter 5Wedding Day…Finally…Arthur and I got married…I never imagined before that I would be the lucky one to have him forever, I even felt insecure about my financial condition, a poor girl like me certainly didn't deserve to be by the side of a rich man like Arthur.But I was the one who finally stood in front of him, with a beautiful diamond ring on my ring finger, it was me, not another girl. This marriage made me think that I deserved to be with him, after all, I also came from a rich family, it's just that bitch took everything and I became poor.After the party ended, Arthur and I went to a 5-star hotel, a suite room was waiting for us, it was a gift from his mother, when the door opened I could see how luxurious the room was, the smell was different, like the smell of… money."Wow… isn't this too much? There are only us in this room but—""Baby, what do you mean too much? We just need to enjoy it without thinking about anything, now you are completely mine, and I think wh
