I saw him. Reyhan. Walking side by side with Livia, that rotten woman. They looked happy, laughing as if nothing had ever happened. But their laughter vanished instantly when they saw me. Reyhan stared at me with a look full of hatred.

"Arlena…" Livia spoke, her voice trembling as if filled with regret. But I knew it was just an act.

I ignored them and tried to walk away. However, Reyhan grabbed my hand roughly, holding it tightly.

"I want to talk to you," he hissed.

The man my father sent didn't stay silent. He immediately stepped forward, separating Reyhan from me. 'Let go of Miss Arlena,' he said firmly.

"Who are you? Mind your own business! Get out of here before I beat you up!" Reyhan shouted angrily.

But the man wasn't afraid. He punched Reyhan in the face without hesitation, sending him crashing to the floor. Blood flowed from his nose.

"Reyhan! "Livia screamed in panic and rushed to help him.

"Arlena, why are you doing this? Mr. Reyhan just wanted your explanation," Livia tried to play the role of the good woman.

I smiled sarcastically. "Stop pretending, Livia."

Without realizing it, my hand rose. Plak! The hard slap landed on her cheek. Livia screamed, and Reyhan immediately stood up, pushing me until I stumbled. The man my father had sent caught me before I fell.

"Miss, are you okay?" he asked worriedly.

I nodded and released his grip. My eyes shifted to Reyhan, who was still standing there with a face full of anger.

"I told you before, Arlena," he said coldly. 'You should have known better."

"Known better?' I laughed sarcastically." Yes, I know now. I know I've been in love with a worthless man like you."

"What did you say?" Reyhan stepped closer, his eyes blazing with anger. But the man beside me didn't let him get near me,

"Trash. You're trash! Stupid and self-centered! You came back to the woman who rejected you because you were poor, and left the woman who was always by your side when you were down. And worse than that, you had the nerve to kill your flesh and blood for a cheap woman like her!"

"Enough!" Livia screamed, tears streaming down her face. 'Enough insulting me! I know I was wrong, I'm sorry. I…”

"You don't deserve her forgiveness, Livia!' Reyhan pulled her back." Arlena deserves all of this! She lost her baby not because of your mistake, but because of her own mistake! She's selfish and irresponsible! I was already kind enough to let her live after taking her kidney and replacing it with another one. I was too kind to let her keep living!"

I clenched my fists, holding back my anger. Tears could no longer be contained. Reyhan… You're truly a man with a heart of a demon. I'll never forgive you.

"I'm selfish…?"

"You call me selfish, Reyhan?" I stared at him in disbelief. 'You've ruined my life! You took my kidney, you killed our child, and now you have the nerve to call me selfish?"

"Arlena, shut up!' Reyhan shouted, his face flushed red. His breath was labored, his jaw clenched. "I'm telling you, I didn't kill your child! You're the one who couldn't protect him!"

"Your child?" I stepped forward, closing the distance between us." He wasn't just my child, he was your child too, Reyhan! You knew I was pregnant. You knew I only had one kidney. But you still forced me to donate it! You took my kidney without caring about the risks I'd face. And now... You still dare to blame me for losing our child? Have you completely lost your mind? Are you a heartless monster?"

Reyhan fell silent. His eyes glared at me, but no words came out. Meanwhile, Livia squeezed Reyhan's arm, hiding behind him.

"I never asked you to donate your kidney for me back then," Reyhan said coldly. 'It was your own decision."

I laughed sarcastically. My laughter was filled with bitterness.' My decision? You have no shame, Reyhan. You took advantage of my love. You forced me, manipulated me, and now you stand here as if you've never done anything wrong?"

Livia suddenly spoke up. Her voice trembled. "Arlena, I'm truly sorry. I didn't know you were pregnant. I didn't know... If I had known, I wouldn't have—"

"Shut up!" I snapped at her, my voice trembling with anger. "Do you think your apology can bring my child back? Do you think the word 'sorry' can erase all this pain?"

Livia sobbed, though I knew she was only pretending. "Arlena, I'd rather die if this is how it is. I'll give you back your kidney. I hope that can atone for my mistake and Reyhan's. I also beg your forgiveness. I truly loved Reyhan. I accepted him back then. You know how my family is. They wanted me to marry someone of equal status."

"Does that mean everything will be okay? No, I'll never forgive either of you!"

"Whatever, do you think I care?" Reyhan squeezed Livia's hand, pulling her aside. "Let's go. There's no point talking to you, crazy woman," Reyhan sneered, pulling Livia away. Crazy woman?

Crazy woman?

I laughed loudly, making me the center of attention.

"Yes, I am crazy, Reyhan," I replied in a low voice, but full of anger." Then I'll make sure you feel my madness."

Reyhan didn't answer. He just looked at me once more before turning away with Livia.

I clenched my fists, feeling my sharp nails digging into my palms. I promised myself, and the child I had never seen, that I would make Reyhan pay for everything.

I turned around and looked at the man my father had sent. "Let's go home now."

"Yes, miss," he replied.

Upon arriving at the hospital entrance, the man opened the car door and helped me inside.

I looked out the window as the car drove away from the hospital. In the distance, tall buildings loomed, as if challenging me.

Reyhan, you've taken everything from me. But this time, I'll take it all back. And I'll make sure you feel pain far more profound than what you've given me.

This isn't over. This is just the beginning.

When we arrived home, my father and mother greeted me immediately. My mother cried as she hugged me tightly.

"Arlena, how are you, dear?" my mother asked tremblingly.

I smiled weakly. 'I'm okay, Mom."

My father approached, his face showing anger.' Reyhan has gone too far. He didn't just destroy you; he also took your child."

I held my breath, trying to hold back my tears. My baby… I've lost my child.

"Dad…" I whispered." I want to take back everything Reyhan took from me."

"You are my daughter. As the sole heiress of the Nugraha family, you can do anything you want. Next week, I will hold a ceremony to officially name you as the heiress of our family's fortune. Everyone must know, so no one will ever look down on you again." My father spoke firmly yet gently.

Not long after, he called his assistant. "Prepare everything. I want this party to be the biggest one. Arlena will appear as the main heiress. And invite everyone, including Reyhan."

"Reyhan? Why is he being invited?" I looked at my father, slightly surprised.

"So he knows who's really in charge now. He needs to see you're not the woman he accused you of being. It'll be a blow to him." He explained, smiling coldly.

I clenched my fists, pain and resentment mingling together. 'Alright, I'll follow your advice."

"Rest first. You'll need strength to face everything.' My mother patted my shoulder.

I nodded and went to my room. As soon as the door closed, tears fell from my eyes. The images of Reyhan and Livia and their fake smiles continued to haunt my mind.

"Reyhan, Livia... you will regret this. I will make you both pay for every tear and drop of blood," I whispered.

A week later, the long-awaited day arrived when my status as the heir to the Nugraha family was officially recognized. I watched important guests appear on the hotel monitor screen, including government officials and successful businessmen. Their faces looked satisfied, hoping for the opportunity to collaborate with the Nugraha family.

I saw Reyhan arrive with Livia and her family—my mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law. They looked very close. Their attitude was very different when they were with me.

“Mr. Reyhan, who is that woman? Ah, isn't she…“A man who knew Livia looked surprised.

“WOW… amazing. How's your wife?” he asked again with a sarcastic tone.

Livia gave a faint smile. “Arlena is busy. I'm just accompanying Reyhan and representing my family's company,” Livia replied.

Hearing that, I glanced at Tomi, my assistant.

“Livia comes from the Dirgantara family. Their company is almost bankrupt. Reyhan offered financial assistance,” Tomi explained.

I fell silent. No wonder Livia, who had once rejected Reyhan, had changed. Reyhan had provided her with benefits.

Tomi continued explaining about the Dirgantara family, who had many cases of contract violations. I listened carefully.

“Alright, I understand,” I finally said. ‘It's time to meet them. I want to see their reactions.’

I stood up and walked toward the party room.

The large doors swung open wide, drawing everyone's attention. They stared at me enthusiastically, whispering as they recognized me as Reyhan's wife.

“Isn't that Mr. Reyhan's wife?”

“Yes, why is she here?”

“Is she the sole heiress of the Nugraha family?”

“Wow, Mr. Reyhan is truly lucky.”
