Chapter 6

This video shows Dane cutting my rope. Before he cut it, he deliberately glanced around furtively to check if the surveillance camera was working. Then he cut my rope with quick, practiced movements.

One look is enough to tell this was intentional.

He thought the nearby security camera was broken, so he wouldn't be caught on video.

Little did he know, I obtained footage from another camera not far away.

"What Dane did is attempted murder, not his trying to help me like you claim."

I look at Serenity with a cold smirk.

The smile faded from Serenity's face when she saw the video. For a moment, her eyes showed a hint of guilt as she looked at me.

But it only lasted an instant before she said, "He was just trying to play a prank on you."

"Can't you be more forgiving? If not, I'll have him apologize to you later, okay?"

Hearing her words, my last shred of hope for her vanished completely.

I said to her coldly:

"Serenity, sign the divorce papers."
