Liam pushed me so hard that I tripped and fell backward. I felt a sharp pain in
my back as I crashed into the pointy edge of the meeting table.
He fixed me with a stony glare and seethed, “Are you an idiot?”
Am I an idiot?
Perhaps I am.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t have stayed by his side for all this time and let him do
this to me over and over again.
I took a deep breath and tried to ignore the pain in my back. “I’ll leave right
now.”
“Stay here. Someone will bring you lunch in the afternoon,” Liam said in a
frigid voice.

would believe me anyway.”
Liam turned toward the door without saying anything.
I shouted at him, “I’ll jump off the building right now if you refuse to let me
leave!”
I finally managed to stop Liam in his tracks.
I was gripped by a feeling of panic as I stared at Liam’s back.
I counted in my heart.
One… Two… Three…
Liam turned around and seized me by the throat. I was choking as he
squeezed hard around my neck.
“Go on, then.” There was a cold light in his eyes as he muttered through

clenched teeth, “Once you do, I’ll have someone cut your body up and feed it
to the dogs!”
I stared at him, feeling equally horrified and amused.
He probably thinks he could threaten me by saying that.
However, it doesn’t matter to me what happens to my body after I die.
I just thought that it’d be a shame since I could’ve donated some parts of my
body to those who might need it.
Suddenly, the grip around my neck loosened.
I coughed and sputtered a little as the air returned to my lungs.
Liam put his hand around my jaw and lifted my face. “Did you hear me?” He
asked furiously.
Was he saying something just now?

“Don’t ever use something like that to threaten me if you don’t want to make
things more difficult for you.” Liam looked me in the eye and said in a harsh
tone, “Otherwise, I’ll grant your wish and end everything for you.”
Then, he let go of me and stormed out of the room, slamming the door shut
behind him.
As soon as the door was closed, I could hear the sound of it being locked.
I treaded slowly toward the window and looked out. I could see the reporters
gathering outside the L.M building’s main entrance. There were even more of
them here as compared to the ones waiting outside my apartment building.
If I jumped off the building from here, those reporters would surely be able to
capture some photos and report my death. It’d probably be enough to cover
up those unsavory scandals about me, and everyone would soon forget
about what happened to me.
Jumping off from here seems like a very good option for me now.

I placed both my hands on the handle and tried to open the window. Then, I
heard the same clack from when the door was locked earlier.

The window was locked too.
Just then, Liam’s secretary entered the meeting room, along with two tall and
burly bodyguards.
She brought a tray in and placed it on the table. I could see some drinks,
snacks, and sliced fruits on the tray. Then, the secretary said respectfully,
“Mrs. Mendez, if you need anything, you can reach me through the intercom.”
After all three of them left, I sat down in a chair and stared blankly out of the
window at the gray sky. I couldn’t open the window, nor was I able to find any
sharp tools in the room. I didn’t have the appetite to eat anything as well.
It was almost noon when those three showed up inside the meeting room
again. The secretary brought lunch with her this time. It was smoked salmon.
I caught a whiff of the fish and felt my stomach turn almost instantly. I shook

my head and said, “Bring all of the food, including the ones on the table, out. I
don’t feel like eating now.”
The secretary asked, “Should I get you something else?”
I refused her offer. Soon, the three of them left and locked the door.
I still felt extremely nauseous as the smell of food lingered in the air. Finally, I
decided to reach for the intercom and got to my feet.
I had only taken a few steps forward when everything turned dark before my
eyes. As my legs gave out, I could feel myself dropping onto the floor.
For quite some time, I lay on the floor as I drifted in and out of consciousness.
Then, I picked up some noises.
“What’s happened to her?” It was the voice of a woman. “Ms. Nyra, please
wake up.”
That voice…

I could vaguely see a light purple form hovering above me.
A brief moment later, I heard the same voice again. “I think she’s not feeling
well. Rina, send her to the hospital.”
It’s the same voice I have heard from Liam’s phone back then.

I’ll never forget what that gentle voice said over the line, “Didn’t you promise
that you wouldn’t see her anymore?”
It all makes sense now.
My princess…
Liam would sometimes call me that in a mocking tone. I thought it was
because my father’s acquaintances would often call me my father’s little
princess.
Now that I think about it… This lady here is the real princess.

Host consciousness not long after that. When I slowly came to, I noticed that I
was in a hospital.
Everything was hazy as I still felt extremely unwell. I was feeling feverish
again. Suddenly, I felt a tiny prick on my arm.
“You have a fever.” I recognized that it was Chris‘ voice. “You’ll feel better after
getting some rest.”
After what seemed like a really long time, I woke up again in the hospital bed.
Chris happened to be disconnecting the drip from my arm. He beamed a
slight smile at me. “Your temperature has gone down. Do you feel a bit
better?”
I saw the bruises near his eyes and his swollen face. He appeared to be using
a new pair of glasses too.

I gave a slight nod. Then, I said in a cracked voice, “I’m sorry.”
Chris was momentarily stunned. “Why are you suddenly apologizing?”
‘I…”
He got badly beaten up by Liam because of me. However, I didn’t come to
see him, nor did I try to contact him.
I thought it would be better if I kept some distance from him, but….
Was it really the right thing to do?
Chris let out a small chuckle. “I’ll get a nurse to help you wash yourself. Then,
you should have something to eat.”
After I had a quick shower, Chris returned with a bowl of clear soup noodles.
I was so nauseated by the smell of food even though it was not strong or
pungent. I asked, “I’ve been feeling nauseous for the past few days… Could it

“No.” Chris frowned slightly. “It’s because you’re pregnant.” 10/10
