karma

To the outside world, Xavier Sullivan and I are a loving couple. In truth, my father sold me to him to repay the debt he owes the Sullivan family.

I have no choice but to fake my death and leave everything behind, taking only the child in my belly with me.

My mother despised me because I was the unintended consequence of a one-night stand. She poured all her love and attention into her students, treating them as if they were her own flesh and blood. One day, when her favourite pupil confessed his feelings for me, she flew into a rage. She slapped me hard across the face and called me a whore. Years later, as Alzheimer's clouded her mind, she forgot I even existed, yet still remembered every single one of her precious students. The irony was that not one of them ever came to visit her in the nursing home. They all loathed her just as much as I did.

I'm attacked after the murderer who took my sister's life is released from prison. He pins me to the forest floor, allowing me to scream and shout until I run out of strength.

The day that I divorced my third husband, the system told me that I had completely failed my mission. I had married three times in this world and they were all targets that were supposed to fall for me. But every single one of them chose to divorce me because of Wendy Somerfield. The system pitied me for doing my best for the past 30 years, so it asked me to target my son. It said that if my son could confidently choose me, between me and Wendy, then I could live. However, it was no exception that the son I gave birth to after 40 weeks of pregnancy chose Wendy, just like my three ex-husbands. They all even pinned the cause of Wendy's illness on me. My first husband, who was my childhood sweetheart, pretended to be softhearted, but he was actually ruthless. He actually tried to convince me to donate one of my kidneys to Wendy. My second husband, who I met on a blind date, used a scalpel to personally cut open my body. My third husband, who I fell in love with at first sight, even threatened me with my son. While spitting out blood from my mouth, I agreed to their requests with a smile. However, when they saw me being pushed out of the operating room, those people who turned their backs on me went crazy.

Primadona sekolah akan menikah tepat di hari libur kemerdekaan. Dia mengundang seluruh teman sekelas di grup kelas agar menghadiri pesta pernikahannya. Awalnya, aku berniat pura-pura tidak melihat undangan itu, tapi ternyata dia langsung menyebut namaku. "Clarisa, waktu SMA kamu selalu pura-pura jadi diriku, tapi aku nggak akan mempermasalahkannya. Aku harap kamu bisa datang untuk melihat pernikahan mewahku besok." Segera setelah itu, beberapa teman sekelas ikut menanggapi pesannya. "Primadona sekolah memang baik orangnya, pantas saja bisa menikah dengan anak dari Keluarga Wirawan. Dia bahkan bisa memaafkan orang sombong seperti Clarisa." "Apa orang seperti Clarisa pantas, menghadiri pernikahan primadona sekolah kita yang akan diadakan di vila? Jadi orang jangan terlalu baik." Mereka makin mengolok-olok Clarisa, hingga si primadona sekolah akhirnya muncul untuk menenangkan suasana. "Sudahlah, itu kan sudah lama sekali, aku juga sudah nggak mempermasalahkannya. Lagipula, Clarisa kan memang miskin dan jelek, kita jangan terlalu mengejeknya." Begitu dia berkata demikian, grup langsung dipenuhi pesan pujian. Orang-orang memuji betapa baik hati dan polosnya dia. Aku tertawa sinis. Dulu, si primadona sekolah itu selalu memasang citra bak putri konglomerat di sekolah. Dia bahkan memfitnahku, yang sebenarnya adalah putri keluarga konglomerat asli, sebagai seorang pembohong. Semua orang di sekolah sampai menghinaku. Saat membuka undangan elektronik darinya, aku baru sadar bahwa alamat pernikahannya berlokasi di vila milik keluargaku. Makin kuamati foto pengantin pria, makin aku merasa familier. Bukankah itu sopir suamiku? Aku tersenyum begitu menyadarinya, lalu membalas pesan di grup. "Baiklah, aku pasti akan datang di acara pernikahanmu."
