Chapter 1

When my body was placed on the simple operating table, it was still warm.Not that anyone cared, of course.With a surgical knife in hand, Zach Clark slowly but meticulously cut open my chest, and then, he was puzzled.“Huh? Why is there only one kidney?”But he soon resumed what he was doing. His movements were sure and smooth. As expected of the top nephrologist in the city.Some moments later, he removed a bloody kidney from my body and placed it on a uniquely-shaped instrument.“Send it to the hospital and have the staff perform the kidney transplant for Catherine immediately.”Gale Queen, Zach’s best friend, stared at the torso on the operating table and asked, “What about the woman’s body? Even though she only had a torso left when we bought her, it still feels weird to keep her around. Should we call the police?”Zach just washed off the blood on his hands and did not even spare the torso a look. He said in his usual nonchalant tone, “Just destroy it. We don’t want any a

Chapter 2

But Zach and Gale found something surprising when they were on their way to destroy my torso.I was pregnant.Zach even saw the burns he had adored on my stomach.Throughout the years, Zach always turned off the lights when he slept with me. It was probably because he did not want to see my disgusting face.But he should have been familiar with my body.Those burns were all marks left behind courtesy of my father, who burned me with cigarettes.Zach loved kissing those marks and said that they were like blossoming flowers. They were marks God gave me.But when he saw those familiar marks, he was only taken aback for a second before he threw me into a pool of sulphuric acid without even blinking.How strange. I knew that I was dead, but when my torso touched the sulphuric acid, I still felt excruciating pain.And when I saw Zach’s cool, unfeeling gaze, I could not help but think, ‘Zach, do you know this torso is mine? Or have you always wanted to do this?’“Whose family does s

Chapter 3

When he got back, Zach massaged the center of his brows because he was feeling tired.He had accomplished a major task, but for some reason, he felt uneasy.Then, as if he thought of something, he tapped on WhatsApp.His finger hovered over our chat.It still contained records of our argument.One month ago, Zach suddenly said that he was willing to marry me. Honestly, once I became an adult, we started sleeping together. Over the years, Zach never admitted that I was his girlfriend. He only ever told the others that I was his sister, much less talked about marrying me.But suddenly, he said that he was willing to marry me.In retrospect, that was one of the few moments of happiness that I had ever had, but in the next second, he said something that completely destroyed that happiness.“But on one condition: You have to donate a kidney to Catherine.”Catherine Queen was the girl whom he loved for years.I did not even know what I signed to Zach at that time, but when I wa

Chapter 4

Zach and I were neighbors, and we grew up together.I lost my mother when I was really young and lived with my alcoholic father.Meanwhile, Zach’s parents divorced, and he lived next door to me with his gentle mother.Zach’s mother loved me and would occasionally ask me whether I would become Zach’s wife.Whenever she did that, Zach would be highly against it.“Who’d want to marry a mute?!”Even so, Zach always protected me.When other people threw stones at me, ordered their dogs to bite me, or stole my stuff, he always ran over and fought against my bullies.Even if he was battered and bruised all over, he still stood in front of me as my protector.He said that he did not like me because I was mute, but he would always protect me because I was his star.Then, one year, my father got into major debt and wanted to sell me because I was useless, but Zach’s mother discovered his plot.She saved me, but my drunk father stabbed her thirteen times, and she never woke up again.

Chapter 5

Zach hated me, but he also felt guilty toward me.Both of us lost our parents that night.Since I was mute and deaf and since Zach’s mother said that I was the treasure she protected, Zach did not leave my side.Instead, he took upon himself the responsibility of being my brother and brought me up, but I knew that he still hated me.Over the years, whenever it was his mother’s death anniversary, he would get himself drunk and go alone to visit his mother.I went with him once, but in his drunken state, he kicked me away.He then grabbed my neck, and with a fearsome expression, said, “Stella, you’re not worthy of visiting my mother!”But after he became sober, he hugged me and touched the bruises on my neck while apologizing to me. “I’m sorry, Stella. I just feel… really conflicted.”I knew that.He would even cover my face when he slept with me.Honestly, I felt conflicted too.I wanted to treat him as my brother and stay by his side forever, but things did not go my way.A

Chapter 6

Gale started talking up a storm once they got into the car.“Are you missing your little mute lady?”Zach threw his phone away and said coldly, “No. Why would I?”“If you don’t like her, say it clearly to her. She’s mute and is really pitiful, you know?”“She’s pitiful?” Zach yanked his tie off and felt really frustrated. “What about her is pitiful? I brought her up and gave her a good life, and what did she do? She ended up becoming a selfish, ungrateful brat. I just nagged her a little, and she gave me the cold shoulder. She must think she’s a big shot now.”“No matter what, you grew up together. Even if she doesn’t love you romantically, she’ll still treat you as family. Why don’t you call her and mend things with her?”“No need.” Zach cast his phone a glance and spoke even more coldly, “I’m not putting up with her horrible temper!”Even so, after a while, Zach still picked up his phone and sent me a simple message.[I’m coming back home for dinner tomorrow night.]Look.

Chapter 7

“Is that so?” Zach massaged the center of his brows again and shut his eyes.I, too, shut my eyes.If Zach had asked a few more questions to get a clearer answer or even called me, even if I could never hear his voice clearly again, my phone would still ring… in the trunk of his car.But he did not do it.Not in the past, and not in the present.He would not do it in the future either.With my kidney, Catherine’s surgery was a success.Zach was really concerned about Catherine. Even if she had not woken up, he never left her side.When she did, he finally felt relieved.“Thanks for saving me, Zach.”“You don’t have to thank me. We’re friends, after all. Besides, you saved my life.”Catherine forced a smile and said nothing else, as if she was weakened by the surgery and did not have the strength to speak.But I was the only one who knew that she was feeling guilty.She knew that the one who saved Zach in the past was not her, but me.Honestly, though, I think that to Zach

Chapter 8

Catherine first showed up in our lives when Zach was in university, and he started talking about her a lot.Catherine, Catherine…I went to see her in secret once. She was really pretty and came from a good family. She was like a prideful swan.Compared to me, who could not speak and could not hear clearly, she was like a precious gemstone, and I was dirt.Later on, when Zach went hiking with her, I followed behind them in secret as well.I saw Zach smiling at her in a relaxed fashion. It was a smile he had never shown me.At that moment, I was really worried about losing him.I was like a dull clown who was following behind a couple who were perfect for each other.Then, when I saw them arguing and splitting up, I felt relieved.But their argument that time nearly cost Zach his life.He slipped and fell off the cliff.I did not really know how I managed to find him, nor did I know how I managed to carry someone who weighed more than 140 pounds back to the hiking track when

Chapter 9

Once he was certain that all of Catherine’s vital signs were normal, Zach was satisfied, and he went back home.He had sent a message to me and told me that he was coming back for dinner tonight. So, he thought that I would welcome him with an apron around my waist and a table full of food, like a dog who would foolishly wag my tail at him while I waited for my master to come home.But he never thought that he would be welcomed by cold silence.When he could not find me in any of the rooms in the house, he took his phone out and finally called me.It was on the third day of my death.Just as I expected, Zach was told that my phone was turned off.Frustrated, Zach threw his phone away.“Stella! You think you’re hot sh*t now, huh?! Fine! It’s not as if you can throw a tantrum forever, anyway!”Then, he picked up his phone and typed a message.[If you don’t come home today, don’t ever come back again!]Once done, he threw the phone on the sofa. After some thought, he added anoth

Chapter 10

That night, Zach occasionally checked his phone like a trapped beast.He did not even go back to his bed to sleep. He just kept waiting on the sofa, just like what I did all these years.When the sun rose, he finally opened his bloodshot eyes.“Well, well, Stella, you’ve got guts. When I find you, I’m going to skin you alive!”But you have already skinned me, Zach.I sighed, but no one knew about it.The wind blew past the curtains.After a night of not sleeping and me not picking up when he called me, Zach finally thought about going to my work studio.But before he reached my work studio, he got a call from the hospital.It was Catherine. She was kicking up a fuss and saying that she felt sick.He hesitated for only one second before he turned around and left.My heart was already as calm as still water a long time ago.Of course, he would do this. This was not the first time Zach cast me aside because of Catherine.Naturally, it would not be the last.When Zach was s
