"I swear I will make them pay with everything I have. I will use my very own blood to sign the documents that will end them if I must!” To Champagne Gold, life was always like a fast-moving truck with no brakes and a drunk driver, one she couldn't avoid. At the age of five, she lost her parents in a helicopter crash. Life after that was one problem to another but she held on... until her grandfather passed away as well. With his death came the loss of her position of CEO and her hard-earned shares. As if that was not enough, she was served with divorce papers and the revelation of her husband's adultery with her cousin. Dealt with one too many blows, Champagne sought to end it all. Perhaps she could be reincarnated or whisked away to another world like the books she read before, but that was not to be. Instead, a mysterious man entered her life. "Rather than escape like a coward, I can give you the power and resources to carry out your revenge. I have but one condition―marry me.” Champagne held her lips between her teeth and took the offer. However, just when she believed her new life was going smoothly, she found out another painful secret. One more painful than any she had discovered before. She had undergone a uterus removal procedure and she didn't even know it. Now Champagne is more determined than ever to get revenge on everyone who wronged her. She would do and give everything to make them pay for taking away something so precious from her.
"I_ I didn't do anything." Are the first words he says.
"Y_You signed the papers of consent yourself."
Instantly, my head goes blank. Everything inside is deleted and I'm just staring at the man in front of me with my eyes opened wide.
Then like an empty tank being filled by water in full force, the words he just said begin to fill my head. Again and again the words are dancing round and round in my head, filling up the blankness that had taken over for a moment.
And the more it replays, the more absurd it sounds.
I'm telling myself I must have heard wrong, but then the voice is still replaying in my head again and again, assuring me that indeed I heard what he said.
But… What is he trying to say?
No, what's he saying? I mean, huh?
"What?" I breathe out the question that is roaming around in my head, threatening to drive me mad.
