The company holds a management meeting. My wife's secretary, Lisa Carter, is checking IDs at the conference room entrance. She greets everyone who enters with a warm smile. But when it is my turn, she lets out a scornful laugh. I frown and pull out my Cybersecurity Department Manager's ID, but she doesn't even glance at it. "Mr. Torres, Ms. Shaw took pity on you and made you a manager. Do you really think you're somebody important?" I ignore her and dial the CEO's direct line instead. "Someone's saying my position is just charity from you. Is it true?"

Je suis Isabelle, la fille du premier parrain de Sicile. Depuis mon enfance, j'étais toujours rebelle. Mon père, craignant que je me marie impulsivement avec un homme de moindre qualité, a pris une décision radicale. Il a ordonné que je sois fiancée au nouvel héritier de la famille Marino, Lucas. Bien que ce soit un mariage politique, je voulais au moins choisir une bague de fiançailles qui me satisfasse. C'était ainsi que je me suis rendue à l'enchère organisée par la mafia. Lorsque la bague précieuse a été présentée, j'ai levé ma plaquette d'enchères. Avant que le marteau du commissaire-priseur ne tombe, une voix hautaine venant de derrière a interrompu le moment. « Une gamine de la campagne ose me concurrencer ? Je mets deux millions d'euros ! Tu ferais bien de dégager. » Un silence s'est installé dans la salle, seulement interrompu par le bruit des appareils photo qui cliquetaient. Je me suis retournée pour voir une femme vêtue d'une robe dorée haute couture. Un sourire indifférent flottait sur ses lèvres, comme si toute la salle des enchères était son terrain de jeu privé. Avant même que je puisse répondre, le commissaire-priseur a précipité l'enchère. « Vendu ! Félicitations à Mlle Sofia, qui remporte la bague L'Étoile Éternelle ! » J'ai froncé les sourcils, une colère grandissant dans mon cœur. « On peut clore les enchères avant même qu'elles ne soient terminées ? C'est n'importe quoi ! » Sofia s'est tournée vers moi, ses yeux perçant comme des couteaux, me scrutant de la tête aux pieds. « Les règles ? » Elle a ri froidement. « Chérie, je suis Sofia, la sœur préférée de Lucas, l'héritier de la famille Marino. Ici, c'est moi qui fais les règles. » Je ne pouvais pas m'empêcher de rire. Quelle coïncidence ! Lucas, c'était le prénom de mon fiancé. J'ai sorti immédiatement mon téléphone et j'ai composé un numéro. « Lucas, ta sœur vient de me voler la bague de fiançailles que j'aime. Comment on règle ça ? »

Lorsque je suis enceinte de six mois, ma petite sœur a un grave accident et a besoin d'urgence d'une transfusion sanguine. Après le groupage, je suis la seule à pouvoir la lui donner. Cependant, je suis tellement épuisée et amaigrie par des vomissements gravidiques que je suis obligée de refuser. Mais ma famille me force à me rendre dans la salle de transfusion. Avec un gros ventre, je suis impuissante à leur résister et je ne peux que demander de l'aide à mon mari. À ma grande surprise, il adopte une attitude indifférente. « Tu es en bonne santé, le don de sang ne t'affectera pas, Hélène est différente, elle a un bel avenir, nous ne pouvons pas la laisser avoir des regrets. » Après la transfusion, je tombe dans les pommes dans la salle, après avoir repris mes esprits, la première chose que je fais est de réserver un avortement.

My husband's first love had been trapped in a car for an hour. After they pulled her out, his rage shifted onto me. “It’s your fault she got hurt,” he spat, his eyes blazing as he grabbed me. Before I could make sense of what was happening, he forced me into a wooden box, slamming the lid down with a deafening crack. “You’re going to feel every ounce of the pain she went through,” he hissed, nailing it shut. I pounded on the walls, my screams tearing through the air. “Please, I didn’t do anything! Let me out!” My throat burned with the effort, my fists aching, but nothing stopped him. “Stay in there until you’ve figured out how to act like a decent human being,” he said, his voice cold, dripping with contempt. Hours passed. My body twisted unnaturally in the tight space, bones throbbing as blood smeared the wood beneath me. I whispered into the dark, the pain unbearable. "Please… just let me out…" But he didn’t care. A week later, he returned, his laughter echoing with hers as they entered the house, carefree from their trip. He finally opened the box. But by then, I was already gone. The woman he locked away was no longer breathing, no longer pleading. Just a cold, silent corpse.

It was my 30th birthday, and my husband said he had a surprise for me. However, on the day of my birthday, he was nowhere to be found. I called him countless times, but no one answered. Just as I was about to panic and consider calling the police, I happened to see a post on the social media feed of his female secretary. “A typhoon hit, and my boss was worried about my safety, so he personally took me home. How wonderful! I’ve got a guardian angel for myself!” My anxiety turned to cold calm in an instant. I commented on her post: “Traveling during a typhoon is dangerous. Tell him he doesn’t need to come back.” Not long after I posted the comment, my husband called. “Kelly, I was only concerned about the safety of my subordinate, and yet you’re thinking such vile thoughts. “Birthdays come every year. Missing one won’t kill you!” You were right. Birthdays came every year. But there was no way I would celebrate them with you.

When the fire broke out, I called my husband, Hector. He didn't answer. Instead, he ran straight into the flames—to save my sister, Emma. They held each other, clinging to life, while I was trapped in the basement, watching my calls go ignored until all hope burned out. Afterward, Emma played innocent, twisting everything. She told him, "Hector, don't blame Sienna. She didn't leave me on purpose... she was just scared." Her lie made me the villain, and everyone bought it. Fueled by hatred, Hector spat, "She's so vicious—why didn't that fire just take her?" Three months later, the police found my body.

My wife, a doctor, treated our daughter like a walking blood bank. When our daughter passed away, she took it even further. She transplanted her corneas into her old flame’s son. Before our daughter’s body was even cold, she was out having dinner with her ex and his son. They were celebrating that the boy could see again. She even went so far as to secretly burn our daughter’s body to get rid of any evidence. By the time I got there, all I saw was my daughter's ashes being swallowed up by the flames. I told her I wanted a divorce. She just sneered, “It’s only a daughter. Are you really going to divorce me over this?” But later, she was down on her knees, begging me not to leave her.
