Because I was in a hurry to go home to see my sick mother, I drove away my husband's BMW parked in the garage.

As soon as I left the community, a female college student sponsored by my husband blocked my car and asked me to give it to her.

"Mrs. Williams, I'm going to take my roommate for a ride today, and Mr. Grant has agreed to lend me this car. If you don't have anything else to do, don't go out and let me use the car!"

I was too lazy to watch her manipulative look, so I stepped on the accelerator and left her behind.

After returning home in the evening, Liam Williams spoke after a moment of silence.

"Did you know that Vivian cried all day today? Her classmates laughed at her for being so pretentious and boastful."

I have some doubts.

"Why does she, a scholarship student, have to drive a BMW? Isn't it better to live within her means?"

"All right!"

Liam agreed.

A year later, my company was in financial trouble and Liam brought me to The Riverdale Gravel Works in the suburbs.

He hugged the female college student and said gloomily,

"Didn't you say that we should do things within our ability? Take off all your clothes today and hang on the back of the car to run. I'll see how many laps you can run, and that's how much you can give to your father-in-law."

Under the scorching sun, Liam hired a live streamer to follow and supervise the entire process.

Everyone was joking about how many laps I could run and whether my breasts would fall off from exhaustion.

The video of Mrs. Williams running naked on a gravel road hanging on the back of a car to raise funds became a hot topic within a minute.

But when I faced the camera and slowly put on the chain, a voice popped out,

"Don't run away. I will provide the Johnson Family with 10 billion US dollars."

As soon as the words fell, the screen of the live broadcast room was refreshed crazily:

"Where did they get this cover? Ten billion dollars. Even the richest man in Riverdale may not have ten billion dollars?"

"That's right, you really think you're the Johnson Family heiress, you're just a second-hand product, don't brag too much."

"Come on, come on, just think of me as a kind person. I'll give you a hundred dollars for running a lap. You can't watch it for free."

My feet were hurting from the gravel road. That bastard Liam must have given me sleeping pills. I felt weak and limp all over.

The exposure to the scorching sun made my face redder.

Liam sat under the parasol, holding Vivian Miller with his left hand and holding a glass of red wine in his right hand, looking at her with a disdainful look:

"I thought it through. Should I just run away from the car or kneel down and kowtow to Vivian to apologize? There was no discussion."

Vivian heard this and said with embarrassment,

"Liam, I don't blame my sister. Please stop humiliating her. How can a woman run naked in front of so many people? How can she face people in the future?"

"It's also my bad luck. Unlike my sister, I can't marry a husband as handsome and rich as you. I get laughed at for borrowing a car."

But I remember there should be other cars in the garage, but she insisted that the car she promised to her classmates was a BMW and she had to keep her word.

Liam looked at me coldly.

"Sienna Johnson, when you used the identity I gave you to embarrass Vivian, you should have known what the consequences would be."

"Have I ever warned you that Vivian is timid and kindhearted? Don't bully her. I promised to protect her for the rest of her life, and I will never let her suffer any injustice."

I looked at the lover who had accompanied me since my youth, and my heart felt cold.

Johnson & Williams merged, and as his father grew older, he gave most of his client resources to Liam.

Liam quickly rose to become the richest man in Riverdale.

At a cocktail party, I met Vivian, a waitress who was being bullied.

He immediately came to the rescue, recognized Vivian as his god-sister, and kept her by his side from then on.

Vivian stayed with him all night because she was afraid of thunder.

He even took her to various high-end banquets and taught her how to deal with people and negotiate cooperation.

I asked him to be aware of the impact and even took the initiative to find Vivian and asked her to keep her distance.

Vivian hid herself for three days, and Liam also kept me in bed for three days.

"You just can't live without men, can't you? If I find out that you threaten Vivian again, I'll find a hundred men to serve you."

Since then, Vivian has become more aggressive and always provokes me, while Liam turns around and accuses me of bullying her.

Even when Vivian suffered from dysmenorrhea, she blamed me for deliberately cooking cold food for her every day.

Therefore, Liam forced me to eat a bowl of ice cubes, saying that I could also experience the torture of dysmenorrhea.

My thoughts were flying all over the sky, and were suddenly interrupted by a voice.

"See, it was just a few words, but my sister started crying before she even ran away. My classmates waited for me at the school gate for 30 minutes. Dozens of classmates surrounded me and blamed and mocked me. I held back my tears and apologized to them one by one."

Vivian wiped her tears and snuggled into Liam's arms pitifully.

As expected, Liam's face showed distress, and when he turned to look at me, his expression turned into hatred.

"Vivian has suffered so much humiliation because of you. Today I will let you experience the feeling of being mocked by thousands of people."

As Liam waved his hand, the bodyguard rushed over, stripped off my shoes and clothes in a few seconds, and tied me to the back of the truck with a chain.

My feet stepped on the hard stone, which immediately pierced my skin and caused blood to seep out.

The live broadcast room started to get noisy, with some people saying they could run one lap, and some saying they could only run three laps at most.

Liam's friends pulled up a table and started betting, and the amount that would require me to kneel down and beg for mercy reached eight million US dollars.

"Look at her delicate skin and tender flesh. It's good enough that she can run a lap. I'm afraid she will cry and beg for mercy as soon as she lifts her feet."

"That's right. Big brother gave her three sleeping pills. How could she still run? She could barely run like a dead dog."

I stared at them in a daze. It turned out that everyone knew that Liam was determined to force me to kowtow and apologize to my lover today.

My eyes couldn't help but become red.

Liam was stunned when he saw me like this.

Vivian immediately spoke with a look in her eyes.

"Forget it. My sister is a delicate person, so how can she bear such grievances? I am not like me who has been used to being beaten and scolded since I was a child."

As he spoke, he lowered his head and wiped away his tears.

"Vivian, the injustice you suffered is your parents' business. Why are you running to me and pretending to be pitiful to gain sympathy?"

"You feel wronged just because I didn't lend you the car. If the bank doesn't give you the money, why don't you go to the bank and cry?"

I gritted my teeth and pulled hard at the chain on my body, not wanting to waste time talking to the madman.

Vivian's eyes immediately became wet when she saw my sarcastic words.

"It's all because of my incompetence... I can't find a man as good as Liam to rely on, otherwise I wouldn't be looked down upon even when I borrow a car."

"I deserved to be ridiculed and scolded by my classmates. It's because I value friendship too much and wanted them to have fun.

"Sienna, you still dare to disrespect Vivian? Your Johnson Family is about to go bankrupt, don't you know your own identity?

Liam said, looking at the bodyguard.

"Since Mrs. Williams doesn't know her own identity, let her experience the suffering of ordinary people."

"Take it up to a hundred yards, drive it around The Riverdale Gravel Works, and have her do a few laps behind the truck."

Before he could finish his words, the broken truck rushed out with a loud bang, emitting black smoke.

I hurriedly pulled the rope and ran. The hard stones scratched the soles of my feet and blood immediately flowed out.

Blood kept spurting out from my feet. Because of running so fast, my face was pale and my breathing was rapid.

Liam's secretary couldn't help but remind him,

"Mr. Williams, Mrs. Williams is a girl. Running wildly in the hot sun like this could easily lead to an accident."

Liam sneered.

"What could possibly happen? I'm just trying to calm her down so she doesn't act so arrogantly in the future."

"I've asked the doctor to be on call. If she can't bear it and begs for mercy, I will naturally let the doctor save her."

But while I was running, I couldn't open my mouth even if I wanted to beg for mercy.

Soon, my feet were numb from the pain, the entire soles of my feet were rotten into pulp, and my heart felt like it was going to explode.

But I couldn't stop. If I stopped, I would be dragged along the gravel road and become a bloody mess in a few seconds.

My father has been hospitalized due to a sudden heart attack because of Johnson Enterprises, and Johnson Enterprises still depends on me for support.

Liam was also moved when he saw that my face was pale and my body looked like I had just been fished out of water.

He was about to open his mouth to stop her, but Vivian spoke timidly,

"Liam, is my sister angry? I would have forgiven her if she had just apologized, but she insisted on showing off her personality in front of so many people. How will everyone see her..."

"Forget it, I won't ask my sister to apologize. I'm used to being bullied anyway. How could a heiress like her bow her head and apologize to poor people like us?"

Liam put his hand down silently, his face darkened.

"Since she refuses to apologize, let her continue to run. If she doesn't give in today, let her run until she dies."

The cold voice came intermittently. Looking at the two people drinking red wine affectionately under the parasol, my heart was broken.

However, the love between childhood sweethearts cannot compare to that of a seemingly perfect newcomer.

When we were ten years old, we were engaged. At that time, he loved me in every way, like a brother and a lover.

He peeled shrimps for me while we were eating, served as a pillow for me when we were in the car, and even when I hurt my hand while peeling fruit, he would rush me to the hospital overnight out of pity.

The doctor joked that if he had waited one minute longer, the wound would have healed.

From that day on, all the fruits I ate were peeled because he had peeled them in advance.

But all this changed when Vivian appeared. He said that I was inconsiderate and not gentle enough, and that I was a heiress with a bad temper and difficult to please. But it was he who said at the beginning that I was his little princess and I could always be willful in front of him.

Until Johnson Enterprises gradually declined, he began to dislike my character and sympathized with Vivian's fragility, pitifulness and understanding.

He even deliberately forced me to kowtow and apologize to his lover at a critical moment when the Johnson Family was facing life and death.

Thinking of this, I finally understood that Liam is no longer the person I love the most.

He treated me like a worn-out shoe.

The live broadcast room was still noisy, with comments flying everywhere.

"Mr. Williams is determined to cure Mrs. Williams. He will not be satisfied until she runs a certain number of laps."

"That's right. If I just apologized, why would I have to be so hard on my body?"

The fan just now continued to leave a message,

"It is better to die in glory than to live in disgrace. The wife will never bow to the other woman. Ms. Johnson, I will always support you."

This news exploded like thunder in the live broadcast room.

Many people began to change their direction.

"That's right. No matter how arrogant Mrs. Williams is, she is still the wife. No matter how right the other woman is, she is still the other woman. How can the wife apologize to the other woman?"

"Mr. Williams, are you kidding me? This is encouraging bad behavior."

Seeing this, Vivian's face turned ugly, and tears instantly filled her eyes.

"Mr. Williams and I are innocent. Mr. Williams just took pity on me and recognized me as his god-sister and sponsored my studies. I am not the other woman."

The sharp-eyed fan immediately took a screenshot, and the picture showed the two of them hugging each other.

"Oh, am I too old-fashioned? God-sister can cuddle with her brother. They even kissed each other."
