It had been three months since I last saw Brad Coleman, and he suddenly said he wanted to get married.The last time I met him, I overheard him telling his friends he was sick of me.Everybody in the room burst out laughing.They laughed at me because I had been with him for five years and ruined my reputation by pandering to him, but I was still abandoned.My life in the Young family for the past three months was torture. My father, Walter Young, got drunk a few days ago, so he went a little hard when he raised his hands to me.

Chapter 2

Five years ago, I was a college freshman.In Brad's words, when he pursued me, I was so pure that he felt sorry for me.He truly loved me back then. He doted on me as well. He treated me like I was a precious treasure.Our relationship was the longest that he ever had. I even got engaged to him before I graduated college.It was a pity that I was already in ruins and my reputation was in tatters.Everyone in the capital knew I had done plenty of shameless things to hold on to a wealthy catch like Brad.At that time, he said he was tired of me being pure and simple. To pander to him, I forced myself to change and to blend into his dirty social circle. I forced myself to cater to his peculiar interests.He wanted a woman who was flirtatious, and passionate. He liked a woman who was open and bold.I endured the embarrassment and satisfied him.However, what I got in return was his nasty words."You're shameless, Leah. Escorts aren't even as wild in bed as you are. Look at you no

Soon, everybody knew Brad had called off his engagement with me.Unexpectedly, I was not beaten up.However, I lost contact with my siblings, who were abroad, again.I knew that was how my father always used to vent his anger.He and my stepmother started searching the entire city for a suitable man for me to get married to. They wanted to marry me off to let the Young family remain wealthy.However, nasty rumors about me gradually started spreading.They said I had done many nasty things to make Brad happy over the years.

Chapter 4

Before I got married, I went out for a meal with my best friend. When I went to the restroom, I bumped into Zoe.She looked like a changed person.She had gorgeous makeup on and was wearing a classic little black dress. She had a slender figure, and she looked flirtatious. She had a cigarette in between her luscious lips."You've heard, right, Ms. Young?" Zoe sneered as she looked at me. "Brad is going to be engaged to me."I looked at her and suddenly thought of how bashful and innocent she looked when I first met her. For some reason, I could not help but sigh."Mmhmm... I heard," I replied.Zoe's smile grew wider. "Are you dying of jealousy, Ms. Young? Rumor has it that you've terminated three pregnancies for him. I also heard you were willing to do all kinds of nasty things to make him stay and to marry him."She leaned against the window. Her smile was mixed with disdain.I glanced at her indifferently and said, "You've said it yourself, Ms. Spencer. It's just rumors. You

Chapter 5

Brad was taken aback.Over the years, he had seen me being innocent and obedient. He had also seen me crying hysterically as I harassed him.I had been naive. I had been seductive. I had cried, smiled, and thrown tantrums in front of him.However, I had never been as calm and cold as I was then.He pushed Zoe aside, and he walked up to me indifferently. "Leah, I'm giving you one last chance. Apologize to Zoe."I looked right at him, and I suddenly laughed.My laughter was resolute. It was like I was risking everything. "Brad, I told you. I won't apologize. Over my dead body—"The sound of a crisp slap echoed through the empty hallway.Brad seemed to be stunned as well after the slap.Zoe's hand was on her face, and her eyes were widened. She was in a slight disbelief as well.Everyone but me was taken aback. I raised my hand slowly and cupped half of my face that was hurting. Tears started welling in my eyes."Leah—" Brad subconsciously took a step forward, but I immediately

Chapter 6

I received many texts and calls after I went home that day.Most of it was a screenshot of Zoe's social media post.The most eye-catching thing in her post was the engagement ring she was flaunting.I closed the message app and did not reply to any of the texts. I did not answer any of the calls either.My face was still a little swollen, so I put an ice pack on it.When I returned, I saw a text from the bank that I had received a transaction.I was confused. Then, I was stunned when I saw the series of zeros after I opened the message.Before I had the chance to count them, my phone rang.The contact on the screen was a name I had saved—Mr. Blackwell.It was the first time James had called me after our engagement was confirmed.I felt my heart pounding. I took a few deep breaths before I answered the call."Have you received the money, Ms. Young?""I've received it, but Mr. Blackwell, you've already given us a wedding gift," I reminded him softly, wondering if his subordin

Chapter 7

I quietly left the capital city with the people the Blackwell family sent to escort me.Two days later, I met my future husband for the first time.He was James, the heir of the Blackwell family.He wore a sharp black suit and looked elegant and handsome.He was in a wheelchair and had a thin blanket covering his knees. However, his back was straight, and his shoulders were broad and powerful. So, because of that, people would completely forget about his disability."Leah," he called my name in a deep voice.I took a deep breath and quickly walked up to him. Then, I crouched down and met his eye level.I must have been incredibly nervous and timid. That was because I saw a tiny version of myself in his deep-set eyes, and even my lashes seemed to be fluttering.I secretly took a deep breath, plucking up my courage to raise my hand. Then, I held his hands, which were placed on the blanket."Hello, Mr. Blackwell. I'm Leah Young," I said.I heard the people around me gasping when

Chapter 8

Before Brad got engaged, he had a gathering.His fiancée-to-be, Zoe, was not there. It was just his friends.After a few rounds of drinks, they all were a little drunk. Someone with a big mouth suddenly mentioned Leah's name."Brad had many girlfriends, but I still think Leah is the prettiest.""That's right. All of us agree.""Honestly, If Brad hadn't warned us, I would've gone after her.""Get in line, dude."The few of them were getting more and more overboard as they spoke.At some point, Brad put down his glass. He leaned against the couch, staring at them.Gradually, the conversation stopped."Um, Brad, we were just talking nonsense.""We're a little drunk. We're just fooling around. Don't take it seriously."Brad, however, smiled."You know what? Now that you mentioned her, I'm reminded of her. But is she dead? It's been a while since I last heard from her."His voice sounded cold and indifferent.It was as if he genuinely had just thought of Leah. It was as if it

Chapter 9

When Sean called, I just got off James' legs, and my cheeks flushed slightly.James leaned against the bed, grinning slightly as he looked at my swollen lips.My ears burned as I went to the window to answer the call.I was panting as I said, "Mr. Lowe, what can I do for you?"Sean sounded anxious. "Ms. Young, Mr. Coleman wants you to get to the usual place in 30 minutes. Otherwise, he's really going to get engaged to Ms. Spencer."I could not help but sneer when I heard that.The night was too quiet, so James probably heard it too. He put his cup down on the nightstand, and it clunked loudly.Sean heard the sound over the phone and asked, "Is there someone else with you at this time of the night?"In the past, I had always catered to Brad's every whim. It was normal for me to appear as soon as he called. I had always been polite to Sean and had never taken him lightly.However, I would never do that anymore."Mr. Lowe, that's my business. It has nothing to do with you." I pa

Chapter 10

I returned to the bed with my phone after the call ended.James grabbed my phone and threw it on the couch at the side.He wrapped his hands around my waist, and I felt his warm breath on my face and neck.He caressed my waist with his fingers lightly, making me feel ticklish. I instinctively wanted to move away, but he hugged me tighter."Leah, do you know it's highly unethical to answer an unimportant call when you're halfway kissing someone else?" he asked.I had been by James' side for a few days.He said we were about to have a wedding and become husband and wife, so we should get used to intimacy sooner.That was why we would kiss and hug every night before we bid each other goodnight.I had been living an extremely comfortable life ever since I went there. It was drastically different from what I had imagined.James did not seem as violent and heartless as he was rumored to be. On the contrary, he was also extremely good to me and the people around him. We were quickly
