Even in the after life

Their breath was increasing.

In his great despair, she set the rules.

She threw him on the bed and bent down to kiss him…

But after, he did something unexpected.

From behind his pants, he removed a gun and pointed it towards her stomach. He then pushed her on her back.

« Wha-what are you doing?? » she could not believe her eyes. She couldn't help but feel shocked. She felt it was just a nightmare.

He forcefully held her neck but she kicked his balls with her knees which made him loose control over the gun and wince painfully on the floor.

« This bitch!! Why didn't i pull the trigger?»

She stood up with the gun in her hands, aiming it at his forehead.

« Lin, listen to me! I love you!! »

He said while feeling disarmed and helpless.

« So that's your way of showing your love? »

« I might have tricked you in many things but there's one thing in which i will never trick you! I love you Lin Lin.. I really do! »

He really loved her. Couldn't she tell? But in life, sacrifice was undeniable and choice inevitable!

Love and self-interest could never cohabit. He knew it but still, he chose the later option.

He could not let himself be stupidly blinded by love and loss the benefits of more wealth and power. He was ready to do anything even if it implied sacrificing his first love.

Her face seemed to be slowly softening. She smiled sweetly but she suddenly tightened the weapon on his forehead.The deathly and chilling aura she started exhibiting took the man offguard.

« Today, you made me see that i was wrong. There's no such thing as love!! Why would you do this to me?? » she said bitterly.

« Li-Lin!! »

« And this is your thankyou for a very expensive lesson.... »

She pulled the trigger only to realize nothing came out. Confusion started clouding her mind as she saw a smirk on his face.

«Wha-What is happening? »

He pushed her brutally and she hit her head on the edge of the bed. Blood came out profusely at the impact as she winced painfully on the floor.

That's when the door suddenly opened. Great was her surprise when she saw a familiar face.

« My dear Lin lin…you really thought you could make your way in this life taking all what is mine? »

« You…why?? how?? »

She could not believe her eyes when she saw the woman move to her fiancee and kiss him like there was no tomorrow.

« Well i could not leave you to die so easily without knowing the big news!! »

« What…are you talking about?? »

« You will soon have a cousin..I'm pregnant with Leo's baby »

She said while putting Leo's hands on her tummy and smiling mischievously.

« How could you both do this to me?? »

« Oh shut up!! How can you be so ungrateful you bitch?? After your stupid mother and that husband of hers died, i took care of you even though your father was so selfish to give me even 1/4 of his wealth. Almost everything was given to you and what did i have? Some miserable sort of money and the responsability to take care of a good for nothing girl like you! »

« So this is it?? You did this all out of greed and jealousy? After all what my parents did for you..» she said while sobbing loudly. The physical pain she felt at her head was nothing compared to the great feeling of betrayal she was just experiencing.

«After what they did??If i was really considered, then i would be the heiress of the company »

« You are really a devil in disguise!! How could you?? » she said spitefully

« I can see that even in this position, you seem to be very spiteful which annoys me very much dear. So pitiful when you do not have anything anymore... » she said while removing a gun from her bag and shooting a vase to show it is charged.

« But you know i love you so much!! So you still have the privilege to choose who will take away your life right now…your pregnant aunty or your soon to be uncle? »

«You fulled my parents into thinking you were a good person. I suffered all these years into your hands but yet i still had some little respect for you but after this?? I just want you to go to hell!! You have always been in the shadow of my parents… so stupid of you to think you would ever reach their level! So petty of you to steal the man of your own niece !! You are really an ugly snake…» before she continued, she shouted as she got shot in her stomach. She held it firmly as blood started flowing out of her mouth.

« You whore!! How dare you talk to me like that?? You are in no position right now you insignificant stupid bitch. You are so full of yourself. I see that i talk too much »

« Babe could you please finish my work »

She said to Leo while smirking.

« With pleasure my love »

He took the gun aiming it at the forehead of Lin.

« And you! How could you trick me into signing those documents? And cheating on me with my aunty?? » she said angrily and painfully to him

«In this life, never trust anyone darling »

He said looking right into her eyes.

« Even in the afterlife, you two will pay!! »

She said with a deathful glare.

She instantly got shot.
