I am the youngest Empress Fist in the world, and my boyfriend is a three-time championship belt holder.
People say we're a power couple, a match made in heaven.
But just as I finished an important match, I overheard my boyfriend talking with a woman outside the locker room.
"You're still the best fit for her. What am I compared to that? She could probably kill me with one punch."
The man's voice was seductive and husky, yet when mentioning me, it carried a hint of disdain.
"Of course, you and I are the perfect match. Look at her, there's nothing womanly about her at all. She won't even agree to have a child. What kind of woman is that?"
"I've been tired of her for years now. You're the kind of little temptress that really captures my heart."
In that moment, the dream I'd been living for ten years finally shattered.
I took a deep breath and called the gym manager who had been inviting me to join.
"Manager Bennett? Remember when you asked me to sign with your gym? I'm in."

Half a Life Adrift, Half a World Empty

I looked over at the stunned security guards and gave them a meaningful glance. But as soon as they approached, Aria started throwing a tantrum on the ground, even clinging to my leg to prevent me from leaving.


Britta's face was full of anger. Just as she was about to step in and use force, I quickly grabbed her arm.


"Don't use force. It'll be bad if the reporters find out."


"Call Zoran and have him come take her away."


Britta nodded with disgust on her face, then stepped aside to make the call.


Hearing that I had Britta contact Zoran, Aria stopped her antics. She immediately stood up, a fawning smile appearing on her face.


"Thank you, Faye. I really had no other choice. The gym is closed now, and Zhiwang won't answer my calls. I just didn't know where else to find him..."


"You don't need to tell me all this. Just wait here. He'll be here soon."
