In my past life, she was convinced that I had ruined her chance to marry into wealth, blaming me for her failure and my gruesome death.
This time, I won't stop her. I’d even help her every step of the way.
Let’s see how far she can push her luck!
Kathy didn’t think twice about it. Tossing her head back, she smirked proudly.
“At least you know your place. Once I marry into the Miles Family, I’ll get you a driver or a secretary job. That should keep you fed and clothed for the rest of your life!”
“When we get upstairs, keep your mouth shut. If anyone asks, just say you’re a server waiting for Mr. Miles’s instructions. And if you ruin my plans, you know the consequences!”
Her sharp gaze pierced through me as she grabbed my wrist and dragged me upstairs with her.
The bodyguards stood at the door as my sister made an excuse about delivering water and went inside.
I stayed hidden at the end of the hallway, keeping a close watch.
Not long after, a heavy thud came from the room. Moments later, Kathy was dragged out of the room, unconscious, by a group of men. Five bodyguards, wearing lecherous grins, dragged her into the room next door.
Seeing this, I let out a sigh of relief and clapped my hands, ready to leave.
Suddenly, a heavy blow struck the back of my head. Everything went black and I lost consciousness.
When I came to, my limbs were tied to the bedposts with silk ribbons. In front of me was Chester’s sweat-drenched face.
My eyes widened in shock and I opened my mouth to call for help.
Before I could, he silenced me with a kiss, his lips pressing firmly against mine.
“Don’t think I don’t know there was something wrong with that drink tonight,” he said, his voice cold and dangerous.
“Since you delivered it, you can deal with the consequences…”
My cries for help were muffled as the room was filled with heated breaths. I struggled fiercely, using every ounce of strength I had, but it was futile.
Whatever drug Kathy had found worked too well—Chester didn’t stop until morning.
When he finally fell asleep, I endured the pain coursing through my body, quietly untying myself and slipping back into my clothes.
Chester was infamous for his ruthless and vengeful nature. I wasn’t foolish enough to stick around like Kathy would.
After carefully erasing any trace of my presence in the room, I made my escape.
Before leaving, I glanced toward the room where Kathy was dragged into.
