- The Hayes family already had Sarah.
- My mother told me they adopted her to comfort themselves after losing me.
- But their favoritism showed me I was the
- <
- outsider.
- When Peter had his accident, they dropped the pretense of fairness and ordered me to
- marry him in Sarah’s place.
- I refused. They threatened to withhold the
- money for my foster mom’s treatment.
- I agreed to the marriage and signed papers
- cutting ties with the Hayes family.
- On my wedding day, seeing Peter broken, my
- anger faded.
- Maybe it was my own past, but I felt sorry for
- him, orphaned and injured. I tried to connect
- with him.
- With my care, he recovered in two years.
- <
- But his eyes still tired easily.
- So I believed him when he asked for my
- cornea.
- He just wanted to use me and our baby.
- I lost the baby. I lost any love I had for Peter.
- My foster mom’s surgery was over. She was
- in ICU.
- The doctor handed me the bill. Her funds
- were gone.
- I looked at my four–digit bank balance. My
- heart sank.
- I asked Dr. Zhao to look after her and walked
- out, phone in hand.
- <
- He stopped me. “It’s no use.”
- “What?” I stared blankly.
- His eyes softened with pity. “Your mother…
- she might not make it. There’s no point
- adding more money to her account.”
- It was like a thunderclap. I couldn’t process it.
- No point.
- Patrick heard about my mom from the doctor.
- After a long pause, he said: “They say she
- has maybe seven days. That’s when Peter’s
- surgery is scheduled. Stay until then. I’II
- ensure your mother has the best care
- possible for those seven days, and I’ll take
- く
- care of the arrangements afterward.”
- A practical transaction. How could I refuse?
- After I agreed, he was silent again.
- “I’m sorry, but to guarantee Peter’s surgery
- goes smoothly, I have to eliminate all risks.”
- “I understand. No need to explain.”
- He sent a car to take me home.
- As soon as I walked in, I went on high alert.
- Sarah was with Peter, so he wouldn’t be back
- for a while. I could relax, just a little.
- Then the front door was kicked open.
- く
- Peter’s voice echoed before he even stepped
- inside: “Summer! Get your ass down here!”
- He’d fired all the staff after Sarah complained
- about them.
- I was his maid now.
- I unclenched my hands and went down, kneeling to change his shoes.
- He stepped on my shoulder, forcing me to my
- knees.
- I obeyed. He smirked. “That’s it, good dog.
- Talking to my uncle has consequences.”
- He’d put broken glass under my knees. Sweat
- dripped down my face, but I didn’t make a
- sound
- く
- He seemed bored with my silence. He
- stepped into the living room. “Get up. Take
- care of me and I’ll give you a two–fifty raise.”
- I was Mrs. Knight in name only. I hadn’t seen a dime.
- But being his maid paid seven grand a month.
- I used to cherish that money, for my foster
- mom.
- Now I just said, “Whatever.”
- His face darkened. He grabbed my throat, a
- cruel smile twisting his lips. “Still haven’t
- learned your lesson, have you? Why can’t you
- be more like your sister?”
- Like Sarah? A bully? A backstabbing two
- L
- Like Sarah? A bully? A backstabbing two-
- face? Someone who’d spread her legs for cash and power?
- I scoffed. “I wouldn’t know where to begin.”
- My hoarse voice and lack of resistance seemed to spark his interest.
- He dropped me, watching me crumple to the floor.
- “We’ll have some fun after my surgery. Enjoy these last few days of peace.”
- His eyes were sharp. I looked away, silent.
- My lack of reaction bored him again. He
- kicked me and left.
- <
- I got up, treated my wounds, and said
- goodbye to him in my heart.
- I had two days of peace.
- On the third night, Peter called me to the club.
- The lights and noise were overwhelming.
- Peter had his feet up on a table, Sarah draped across his lap. He gestured with his sunglasses toward a glass.
- “Sarah wants to bury the hatchet. Drink this.”
- He knew I couldn’t drink alcohol after the
- miscarriage. He was just being cruel.
- <
- Sarah glared at me, snuggling closer to Peter.
- “Honey, is she still mad at me?”
- He frowned, tilted her chin up, and kissed her. “Smile. I like it when you smile.”
- “You’re terrible!”
- Their public display of affection meant
- nothing to me.
- “Last chance. Drink.”
- Peter was losing his patience.
- I stayed silent.
- “Fine. You want it the hard way?”
- He smirked and signaled to his guards.
- <
- The next moment, the bungee jump video
- played on the big screens.
- He’d even edited it for comedic effect. The
- crowd roared with laughter.
- Everyone stared. I was a clown in the
- spotlight.
- Peter watched me intently.
- I felt nothing, just a vague appreciation for
- the club’s sound system.
- “Shut up!”
- Peter exploded, kicking the table over. Glass
- shattered.
- fall
- L
- He stalked toward me, kicking shards of glass
- out of his way.
- “Summer Hayes!”
