Chapter 37 This is crazy!!! This is crazy and I think I can win this time by using Clara, somehow I feel like Clara also has a certain intention when she approaches me. It's just that I can't see what's in her head. "And one more thing, I should have done this myself and not involve anyone but I don't have that much room to find out," Clara said. "What is it?" "I think Arthur is cheating on me behind my back, lately his behavior has been strange and he always comes home late at night, I remember about the apartment he showed you, even until now he hasn't said anything about that unit," Clara said. Gotcha!!! "Clara, I've been trying to deny my thoughts but honestly hearing everything you said today about you and Arthur I think I need to be honest with you too," "Be honest about what?" Clara said. "I also felt the same way when you guys came to my wedding, Arthur looked different and he was busy with his phone, I don't think anyone is that busy when they're with their partner r
Chapter 38 “Morning Sarah,” I heard Rosie’s voice and slowly opened my eyes, my room was already filled with sunlight, and she was standing right in front of me, which was unusual. “Morning,” “I made you a sandwich and juice, I’ll put it here, Luke said he stayed at Derick’s last night so he’ll come to see you today, I have to go to work now, and… I’m sorry about my behavior yesterday,” Rosie said. I didn’t even get up and process what she said but the girl just left, I slept too late thinking about our conversation. Her mother is my stepmother and she is my stepsister? No no, she’s not my sister because her mother is not my mother but still, after all this time I thought I had no one left it turns out I still have a family and it’s her. I sat on my bed leaning against the headboard and grabbed my phone from the nightstand, checking if Luke had contacted me or whoever it was and yeah I saw a few messages from Luke and Clara that’s it. Arthur just disappeared, but Clara sa
Chapter 39 Finally, I returned to that place, the place where I lived for 10 years without knowing why I was punished. There was only hatred and thousands of questions in my head, why me? And why did he do all that to me? The person I thought would be the person I could rely on the most, turned out to be the one who destroyed me the most. "Red hair," Mary's voice surprised me, breaking the chaotic thoughts in my head. The old woman entered the room with the black cardigan she always wore, her face still looked beautiful only a little pale, maybe she was worried about the punishment she would receive. "What made you come here? Is it because of Derick?" Mary said before she sat in front of me. I just stared at her at that time, for some reason I felt very miserable seeing this old woman in front of me, she even punished herself, would I do the same thing after successfully taking revenge on Arthur? “I will not sign over all your assets, they are yours and I have no right to receiv
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

Chapter 36Rosie didn't come back that day, and her number couldn't be reached either, Jodie said she didn't come to the restaurant, and he asked me to report to the police if Rosie was missing. But why does it feel so heavy, even Luke didn't stop looking for Rosie, everyone was looking for her except me."Sarah, what's bothering you?" Luke said, he approached me to the balcony with two cups of hot coffee in his hands and gave me one."Nothing, I just don't know why but it seems like Rosie is avoiding me,""Avoiding you? What do you mean? Did you guys fight? I've asked you many times but you said—""Yes because I don't have a problem with her, she even looked fine before she left, I'm just confused because she doesn't look like someone who wants to run away from home, she left all her stuff in her room, and strangely when I wanted to ask her something, at that moment she suddenly disappeared,""Something? What is it?" Luke said.“I don’t want to say this because I don’t know myself, b
Chapter 35 My eyes opened when I heard the phone ringing, I slept very soundly last night, and I even woke up with a smile on my face even though the phone ringing startled me. I didn't feel Luke's touch, maybe he had woken up first because I saw the curtains open and sunlight entering our room. The blanket covered my body, I knew I was naked at that time and I just smiled when I remembered what happened last night. I forgot the phone ringing on the nightstand, I sat and leaned against the headboard before taking my phone and how surprised I was when I saw who was calling me. Arthur Wood, this man wanted to trap me again.. he did everything so that I could be his victim for the second time, but I was not interested at all. I ended the call before turning off my phone, I was just about to get up from bed to clean myself when the bedroom door opened and Luke appeared there with a tray of bread and milk. “Morning Sarah, breakfast,” Luke said, how could he be so sweet, I didn’t even
Chapter 34 The day has finally come, my wedding day with Luke, a wedding that was never planned before, a wedding that I never imagined before is now happening. I officially became Luke's wife, the man stood beside me, very handsome in his black suit, tall and very charming, maybe if I could choose I would choose him to be my husband from the start instead of that bastard. My eyes looked here and there, the guests who came were getting more and more, I didn't know who they were maybe they didn't know me either, all of them were Luke's friends and family, I didn't even think I would be introduced to his family, this was beyond my expectations. "I don't see Arthur and Clara, is it possible that they missed this party?" "No way, he even contacted you the day before our wedding," Luke said. "Do you think he's jealous of all this?" "Honestly, I think he's just trying to play with your feelings, I saw Brie earlier, where is she?" Luke said while looking here and there for Brie. “You
Chapter 33Working with Derick made me much more confident, he gave me many new lessons in life, although 10 years in prison was also a lesson for me not to easily trust someone, especially men.I found many similarities between him and my father, his presence near me made me feel like I was near my father, I couldn't know because my father was dead, but it was true when he treated me like his daughter."Why are you still here? Stop working on all those files, it's time for a break, let's have lunch together," Derick suddenly entered my room, I didn't even realize that it was lunchtime because I was too busy doing my assignment."Oh I forgot the time, okay, I'll tidy it up first,""I'll wait for you in the lobby," Derick said and I just nodded with a smile as he went towards the elevator.I checked my phone, and saw some messages from Arthur and Luke, as well as Jodie. I wonder why that bastard still contacted me, even after I ignored him, he probably thought I was easy to seduce and
Chapter 32Upon arriving at the lobby of my residence, Luke still had a sour face, he didn't even look at me or even talk to me, it was strange because he didn't need to be like this to me and why did I feel guilty towards him now?"Aren't you going to stop by?""No, thanks, I have to see Brie," Luke said, come on this isn't a competition between us Luke, do you have to do this after what I did with Arthur?"Oh okay, have fun,"I just got out of his car, he didn't say anything after that and his car just drove away, I immediately went up to my penthouse.The door opened and I saw Rosie at the dining table, with snacks and her laptop, she turned to me and seemed to scan my body from head to toe."What's wrong?"I passed her and went to the kitchen to get some water, I knew she was still looking at me at that time, she looked confused because it was visible on her face."You look messed up," Rosie said.“Really?”“What have you done? Didn’t you answer Luke’s phone? He sounded worried wh
Chapter 31Luke drove me to Arthur's apartment, he looked quite upset but he didn't say anything, it was just obvious on his face, he didn't even look at me when he dropped me off at the lobby.He just said he would pick me up, I couldn't refuse since I saw his bitter face like that.I called Arthur and told him that I had arrived there and would be going up to his unit soon, I wore his favorite maroon dress, I don't know why he likes seeing me in this color, I just tied my hair and let a few strands fall in front of my face, my tattoo was also visible, too sexy to meet the bastard who had ruined my life.Ringing the bell in front of his unit, I was busy tidying up my clothes until the door opened in front of me and Arthur appeared there, he was wearing a black knit sweater with his sleeves rolled up, I could smell the room very fragrant, I went inside when Arthur greeted me with a smile.What happened to him?“I’m sure you haven’t had lunch, I made you some curry ramen, I just learne
