From Being Abandoned to Being Loved: I Have Fulfilled Myself

For the past twenty years, my father had been supporting Salem City alone. Unfortunately, three years ago, my family fell into poverty, and my fiancé of seven years left me.

Three years later, I regained my power and position in Salem City.

I kept my fiancé, who used to call me a bitch, in a bar.

He knelt in front of me. "Ava, please love me again."

***

"Caleb, my family is bankrupt, so we'll have to keep our wedding simple."

"Ava! I have tolerated you for seven years! Seven years! Before, I tolerated you for the sake of money, but now your family is bankrupt! Why should I still care about you?

"Ava, you are a bitch! If it weren't for the Lewis family, I would have dumped you long ago!

"The Lewis family is bankrupt! What bad luck!"

I woke up from my dream and sat there for a long time, unable to recover.

Damn Caleb Hall.

I opened the curtains. Salem City was still bright at midnight. In the center of Salem City stood the Salem City Building, the tallest building in the city. The bright "L" on the top of the building was placed there by me three years ago.

I would avenge the humiliation I suffered three years ago.

"Buzz..."

My assistant, Henry, called me.

"Ms. Lewis! We found the person you're looking for!"

"Prepare the car."

"Yes!"

I was looking forward to meet Caleb.

The car had a smooth journey and all checkpoints were cleared.

Finally, the car drove away from the bustling area and went to an extremely remote bar.

There was a strong smell of cheap alcohol at the door.

The bodyguards opened the door for me from both sides. "Please, Ms. Lewis."

"You two wait here. Henry, follow me in."

"Yes, Ms. Lewis."

The music inside was loud and the voices were noisy. My assistant had already arranged everything, and we sat together in the first row.

I drank my wine and looked at the people on stage with great interest.

Soon, Caleb saw me.

He first expressed doubts, then confusion, and finally panic that he wanted to hide but could not escape.

He even broke a string because he was too nervous.

"Beauty, can you share a seat?"

"No!"

"You are her man, right? If you know what's best for you, get out of here right now! Do you know who this is? You are a stranger, so I'm kindly reminding you that my boss has the final say in this area! If you still want to leave here today, then... Ah! Ah!"

The scream was so loud that it interrupted my concentration on music. I frowned and looked over. Henry had already broken the man's finger.

"I also advise you to get out of here quickly! If you ruin Ms. Lewis's interest, no one could save you in Salem City!"

These guys were acting very domineering, especially the fat one in the middle, with his exposed belly and a scar on it. His face was full of disdain, and he kept looking at me.

"Who? Ms. Lewis? Which Ms. Lewis? You're not talking about Ava Lewis, are you?"

Henry took his hand back and patted his sleeves. "Yes."

I thought they would not act so unruly after hearing my reputation, but they laughed even louder.

"Haha!"

"Little bastard, you lied. This is in the middle of nowhere. Why would Ms. Lewis come here?"

"Haha! Ava? You said she was Ava. I'm Ava's man! Call me honey!"

"How dare you!"

Henry turned around and looked at me. I gave him a look, and he went on.

I took a sip of wine, and when I looked up again, these people were lying on the ground in a mess.

Soon my people came to clean up the scene. A dozen bodyguards carried them out and cleaned up the blood on the ground.

The people here had never seen such a scene before, so they ran.

Caleb also put down his guitar and wanted to leave quietly.

But I never let go of him.

"Caleb, come here."

The bar's owner was sensible. He didn't know who I was. But I could deal with these people, he knew I was powerful.

He brought Caleb over.

"Keep your head up."

Caleb didn't move. I gave a look. The owner raised Caleb's head and smiled at me ingratiatingly.

The same person as I remembered, yet somewhat different.

Caleb's eyes were sad.

"In my memory, Caleb looked down on me and was disgusting. After not seeing you for three years, I thought you would become something great, but I didn't expect you to end up like this."

Seeing that something was wrong, the owner of the bar lowered his head and left quietly.

I thought Caleb would say something, but he just knelt down like that.

"Haha, you really aren't as tough as you used to be."

Caleb first slapped himself, then pulled the hem of my skirt.

"Ava, I was wrong. Back then... Your father forced me to do that!"

As long as he said another reason, I would still be interested in playing with him.

I raised my foot and kicked him away. He groaned and fell to the side, hitting his head heavily on the ground. Just as he was about to get up, my high heel was already on his forehead.

With high heel, I could make a hole in his head with just a little effort.

I could feel that Caleb didn't even dare to breathe. And his tears were falling down his face.

"Was this how you stepped on my father?"

He didn't say anything, but there was a hint of malice in his eyes. Unfortunately, even if the change was quick, I still caught it.

I slowly moved my foot down. My high heel rested on his throat, and my tone became cold. "Caleb, I'll give you one last chance."

"Ava, please forgive me! No! You don't have to forgive me. Can you give me a chance? I am willing to make amends and accept your torture!"

The last two words touched me. I withdrew my feet and sat back in my seat. Henry poured me another glass of wine.

And Caleb, the man who had called me bitch, was now kneeling at my feet, holding my feet gently, looking pitiful.

"Ava, please. Please love me again."

I stepped on him. And his face turned pale with pain, but he didn't say a word.

"One million dollars a month. And you'll be my dog."

"Yes, Ms. Lewis."

His voice was weak, probably because the heavy kick.

I turned around and cast a sharp gaze on the top of his head. "Caleb, what did you call me?"

He gritted his teeth. I didn't know if it was because of pain or because he was unwilling to accept it. He stood up and stared at me, "My lady."

I squeezed his neck hard. "Caleb, don't forget. You are my dog."

My manicure pliers dug into his flesh, blood seeped through my nails little by little, and the spots on Caleb's neck began to bulge.

He suddenly barked.

I was angry again and withdrew my hand. Henry handed over a tissue.

I walked out while wiping my hands. When I reached the door, a bodyguard lowered his head and said, "Ms. Lewis, Taylor Reed is here."

"What is she doing here?"

I caught a glimpse of Caleb's eyes from the corner of my eye, and when I looked sideways, he seemed to dodge.

The bodyguard also subconsciously glanced at the person behind me, lowered his head and said, "This area is under the jurisdiction of Taylor. She heard that something happened to Caleb, so she came here. She expects to be here in five minutes."

"Henry, wait for her. I'll take Caleb back first."

"Ms. Lewis..."

The bodyguard stopped me. I was very unhappy with his subconscious action of stopping me. As soon as I frowned, the bodyguard immediately slapped himself twice.

"I'm sorry. Please punish me, Ms. Lewis."

I said, "What were you going to say?"

"I also felt that something was fishy. After checking, I found out that Taylor had been pursuing Caleb for a long time."

"Oh? Is that so?"

As I said that, I turned my head to look at Caleb. And our eyes met.

Just as he was about to speak, Taylor arrived on a motorcycle.

"Ms. Lewis, long time no see. I didn't expect you to come to such a remote bar."

I ignored her and walked towards the car.

Taylor was embarrassed, but she couldn't get angry with me, so she could only stop me with a smile.

"Ms. Lewis, can you please help me..."

"Taylor, get out of here as soon as you can before I get angry with you."

Just as I was about to get in the car, Taylor gritted her teeth, then smiled and raised her head. "Ms. Lewis, to be honest, I have been chasing him for a long time, but I still haven't gotten him. If you let him have a baby with me, I will give you the two projects you mentioned before, and I can also go to negotiate with my grandfather."

I didn't really care about money.

But the following...

Seeing that I was moved, Taylor took advantage of the situation and continued to speak.

"Ms. Lewis, I don't want him as a person. I only want Caleb's child."

This sentence reminded me.

"Why? Tell me clearly, and I can agree."

She was very hesitant, but still came close to me and talked.

"Three years ago, Caleb was very successful. After leaving you, he was in the upper class. I don't know how he could coax my grandfather. My grandfather only likes Caleb. I want Caleb's child to inherit the Reed family. In the future, no matter how many projects like that you want, I will give them to you."

I smiled and said, "Then he is yours today."

She said, "I also want to borrow your car."

I put my leg down, raised my eyebrows, and said, "Okay."

"Ava! I am yours! How can you treat me like an object and toss me around?"

Turning back, I looked at Caleb with contempt and reminded him in a gentle voice, "Caleb, you are my dog."

"Caleb, take off one piece of clothing, I'll give you one million dollars. Take off all your clothes and go up there obediently, and I'll give you ten million dollars."

He was about to refuse, but I reminded him.

"This money can pay off half of your debt. Just now, I learned that you have a seriously ill daughter."

My last sentence broke Caleb's last line of defense. He decisively took off his shirt. And in a few seconds, he stood with only shorts.

"I don't have this habit. Get on."

He got into the car with resentment. And when Taylor was taking off her clothes, a woman holding a child appeared in his sight.

She stood three hundred feet away, covering her child's eyes and crying.

Henry came closer to me and said, "Ms. Lewis, she is Caleb's wife."

Taylor covered her chest and closed the car door, but stopped and looked at the woman outside.

Then Caleb also sat up. He looked into the woman's eyes. And his eyes turned red in an instant.

Taylor frowned slightly, "Caleb, go on."

Caleb raised his hand to close the door, but was stopped by Taylor.

"Don't close the door."
