He stood in front of Ravena, stared at me with anger, and said, “Savannah, what are you causing trouble about this time?”
“Ravena already has it hard enough, can’t you show her a little kindness?”
“Don’t forget, you are not the woman of the Conrad family yet.”
“You have no right to use the Conrad family’s name to act wild and push people around!”
We had a big fight and threw many hurtful words at each other.
I couldn’t win against him, and in a rush of anger, I said we should break up.
Draco also spoke coldly, telling me that once I left, I was never allowed to return.
I threw away every gift Draco had ever given me.
I moved by myself to stay in a villa on the edge of my hometown.
Draco blocked my phone number and refused to say even one more word to me.
At that time, we were both young and quick-tempered, and neither of us wanted to lower our head first.
So we stayed stuck like that for a very long time.
In truth, I never really wanted to leave Draco.
I only wanted him to come comfort me, to come say sorry to me.
Draco was a person who spoke straight out, often talking without thinking first.
He didn’t intend to hurt my heart, yet I truly couldn’t swallow this anger inside me.
Deep inside, I quietly made a promise.
As long as he was willing to come and say sorry to me, as long as he was willing to admit his fault to me, I would set aside all old pain, forgive everything, and calmly get ready for the wedding with him.
But I waited again and again, hoped again and again.
I didn’t wait for Draco; instead, I waited for a serial murderer.
He didn’t want money, didn’t want sex; he only wanted my life.
I begged bitterly, struggled desperately, cried, and asked him why.
He coldly laughed a few times and smashed my head hard against the floor.
“Why?”
“Because you deserve it, because you must die!”
“You ruined another family, so I will make you pay the price as well!”
From his broken words, I slowly put together the reason behind everything.
It was Ravena who spread lies online, saying that I used influence to bully people and used my position to gain benefits for myself.
She said she broke her leg after falling while walking home from work, and claimed it happened because I was in a bad mood and purposely pushed her down the stairs.
