“Chantelle Bently, you’re a murderer! Why are you still alive? You should have been the one to die!”

Daniel shoved her away with anger, his face as dark and empty as the black suit he wore.

Chantelle was caught off guard and lost her balance, falling hard onto her pregnant belly. 

The pain was unbearable, and she cried out as her body trembled.

Chantelle shook her head desperately. “I told you, it wasn’t me! It was Kate!”

In a trembling voice, she pleaded, “Daniel, how many times do I have to say this before you believe me? I didn’t betray your family or the Wilson Group Of Companies, and I didn’t cause your grandfather’s death.”

Anger and resentment appeared in Daniel’s eyes as he threw the divorce settlement in Chantelle’s face. “Sign this now! From this day forward, I’ll make you pay a thousand times for everything you’ve done!”

The sight of the document struck Chantelle like a dagger to her heart. 

Her whole body froze as if she had been cast into the icy wastelands of Hell.

Her twin sister framed her, and her perfect family was destroyed on Christmas Eve.

Things got worse when her husband handed her a divorce agreement. A month later, rumors spread that she had died in prison from depression.

Six years later, she returned with a new face to take her revenge. She was beautiful but dangerous.

Daniel felt both devastated and irritated when he saw the mysterious woman. She had the same name as his dead ex-wife, whom he hated most and the one he believed was responsible for his grandfather’s death. 

Despite his anger, he couldn’t deny the strong attraction he felt toward her.

In fact, he was fatally obsessed and addicted to her, and the anger that had controlled him for six years slowly started to crumble.

"Thanks, Calvin," she said with a small smile, finally feeling relieved.

Calvin was caught off guard. His face turned slightly red, but he quickly composed himself. "It's my job to take care of you, Ms. Chantelle. What's the plan now?"

Chantelle's eyes darkened with determination. "Kate might fool Daniel, but not me. Since she's so eager to attend the charity dinner, I'll make sure she gets a big surprise."

Allen woke up in a VIP hospital room.

Pain shot through his body. He had multiple fractures from the fall, but his injuries weren't fatal. Landing on a car had softened the impact.

After surgery, he was moved to a private room. He was shocked to be alive.

He tried to sit up but couldn't. His body felt heavy. Then he realized—he was strapped to the bed.

His breath caught in his throat when he saw who it was. Fear gripped him.
