Tang Feifei's pupils shrank to pin-sized dots. She finally realized who held the power over her life or death at this moment.

That person is me.

The "bitch" she once shoved and rubbed against the bathroom tiles.

As long as I'm willing to continue being the Fire God Bride, she can continue living disgracefully.

Tang Feifei's nails dug deep into the sleeves of my bridal gown, snapping a few gold threads.

"Five million! I'm willing to give you five million!" Her voice lowered to a whisper, her blood-stained lips almost touching my ear.

"That's enough for your sister to complete her Ph.D., enough for your mother to enjoy her old age in peace."

The pile of wood beneath the altar crackled with a "snap, crackle" sound.

I watched her eyelashes tremble with fear and gently shook my head.

Tang Feifei was stunned. Her neck, bleached white, had veins bulging with pulsation.

"Ten million!! I'll give you all my money!!"

"I don't want your money."
