Lucas changed his suit and returned to the engagement venue.By then, Kimberly had already finished her makeup. Seeing him arrive late, she playfully took his arm and feigned annoyance.“Lucas, where have you been?”Lucas froze, but he quickly regained his composure. “I had to take care of something at the company,” he said nonchalantly.Kimberly did not notice anything strange about my brother, including the hint of hostility in his eyes. She continued talking about how proud and happy she had been when she greeted the guests.“By the way, has Veronica arrived yet? I got her a gift!”My brother froze for a moment before he managed an insincere smile.“Really?”“I got you a gift too.”As the guests all arrived, Kimberly stood proudly on the stage and linked arms with Lucas. She looked like a victorious rooster who was full of herself.My brother surveyed everything below with a murderous glint in his eyes.I suddenly felt a chill run down my spine, and uneasiness settled ove
“She even sliced Ms. Walker’s face with a knife!”“She ripped Ms. Walker’s face off.”“They… They restrained Ms. Walker and did not allow her to fight back!”Everyone quickly pushed the blame around to save their own skin. Lucas sneered and took out a knife. Then, he hurt Kimberly the same way she had hurt me. Kimberly begged for mercy, but in the end, she could no longer make a sound. She collapsed to the ground and gasped for air. Her body was also covered in bruises and wounds.Some people were so frightened that they wet their pants. They cried and begged Lucas to spare them.However, he was blinded by rage at this point.He shot Mr. Wilson a look, and Mr. Wilson understood immediately. He signaled the bodyguards to drag these people out like sacks.Not long after, sounds of wailing and screaming echoed outside.Kimberly trembled all over. She forced her eyes open as she looked at the man who had once cherished her. She was about to marry him. Just moments ago, the
My body was sent to my brother in a beautiful gift box. The skin on my face had been stripped off when I was alive. All that was left was a mass of bloody rotten flesh. My limbs were broken and twisted at weird angles. My skirt had been torn into tattered strips of cloth, and my body had traces of abuse all over. Blood and bits of my organs were flowing out too. It was a gory sight. Just yesterday, I was speaking playfully with my brother over the phone. But before I knew it, I was stuffed into a box like a broken rag doll. I would have to wait for him to open it himself. It was the day of my brother’s engagement banquet.As I walked out of the airport, I immediately spotted a woman being surrounded by the crowd.She was Kimberly Clark, my brother’s fiancee. Ever since I learned that my brother was in a relationship, I had been pestering him for all the details about his romantic life.In his words, Kimberly was beautiful and gentle. Although she came from a wealthy family
“What are you doing?”She snatched the bracelet away with a sinister laugh. “Someone lowly like you probably couldn’t afford such an expensive thing, right?“Tell me. Did you get Lucas to buy it for you?”“It’s an heirloom from my mother! Give it back!”Kimberly laughed mockingly.“I’m about to marry Lucas, so his money will be mine. You spent my money on this bracelet and still won’t admit it?“You truly are shameless. It’s no surprise that you would stoop so low and become his mistress.”Two men then stepped out from behind her on either side and seized me by the arms.“Since no one’s taught you any manners, I’ll be the generous person for once and teach you some proper etiquette.“I’ll make sure you understand that a person like you has no right to step into the world of the rich!”She watched me struggle with contempt. With a flick of her wrist, the jade bracelet fell to the ground with a loud crack and shattered into pieces.My eyes instantly welled up, but Kimberly gla
I did not know how long they tortured me, or how many men were involved.The piercing pain almost made me lose consciousness. But since each wave of pain was worse than before, it kept me awake.Eventually, I was breathless and lifeless, like a broken ragdoll.My soul drifted up, and I saw Kimberly surrounded by people. She was still wearing a smug and triumphant expression.“Ms. Clark really knows how to teach someone a lesson. She’s bold and decisive. That’s how a wife should be!”“Someone like this ungrateful little witch should be made to suffer!”“But if we end up killing her, will Mr. Walker hold us responsible for our actions?”Kimberly’s expression turned sullen. “She’s just his mistress. Do you think he’ll get mad over some random woman when I’m his fiancee?“Besides, if I don’t teach her a hard lesson, what if more mistresses pop up later?”Everyone praised her for her foresight, and Kimberly was very pleased with herself.“Pack her up. I want to give Lucas a surpri
Perhaps Lucas had not processed it fully because he looked at her with confusion. “What are you talking about? What ‘little lover?’”Kimberly pouted and playfully slapped his chest.“Still trying to hide it from me? Don’t think I don’t know about that little witch on your phone!”Lucas froze for a moment before he chuckled lightly. Then, he pinched her waist in a playful manner.“I thought you were talking about someone else. She’s just the illegitimate daughter of a business partner. She’s been pestering me for a while, but I’ve never given her any attention.”“As for what you’ve done to her, I’ll have to explain things to her father. It’s going to take some work.”Kimberly rolled her eyes, as she did not quite buy his explanation. But seeing that he had no intention of standing up for me, she let it go.“That’s better. You can’t ever do anything to hurt me again.”Kimberly wriggled in Lucas’s arms and threw a little tantrum. He seemed to enjoy it, and the two of them quickly
