“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.

When Chantelle woke up, she realized she was in a hospital room.

She felt thirsty and instinctively reached for the cup beside her.

Only then did she notice her injured arm.

The memory of the explosion and her narrow escape was still vivid in her mind.

She was lucky to have reacted quickly. Otherwise, she might not have woken up at all.

Thinking about it still sent chills down Chantelle's spine.

The fear of dying, mixed with memories from her past, left her worried.

It felt even worse knowing that the person behind it all was Daniel.

With her uninjured hand, she turned on her phone.

A news alert immediately popped up:

"Spontaneous car explosion in Clearwater Lane early this morning. Drivers are advised to check their vehicles before heading out…"

Chantelle stared at the screen, speechless.

That bastard, Daniel, was really good at covering things up!
