Chapter 3

“Megan! What happened?”

He hurried to wipe the blood from my face.

The employees lowered their heads, not daring to speak.

Olivia pointed at me.

“She tried to steal the surveillance footage of me accidentally running over her mother. I think she wants to send me to prison. I got angry and hurt her, and she even scolded me.”

After speaking, she looked aggrieved.

Jason’s expression instantly filled with concern. He shoved me aside.

“The case is already closed. Why are you still clinging to it? If you couldn’t let it go, you could have talked to me. Instead, you used such despicable methods. I did not expect you to be this kind of person!”

I opened my mouth, but no words came out.

With Olivia here, my mere presence annoyed him. What right did I have to expect him to stand up for me?

I let out a bitter laugh and said hoarsely, “I do not want anything. I just want a divorce.”

His expression wavered as he was about to speak.

Suddenly, Olivia screamed, “Ah! It hurts! Megan! You are so vicious. You actually smeared poison on me!”

Her body convulsed as foam formed at her mouth.

I froze. “I did not—”

Before I could react, a slap landed hard across my face.

Pain burned across my cheek.

I could not believe it.

Had Jason actually hit me over her baseless accusation?

Even after she killed my mother?

As her convulsions worsened, his gaze toward me grew colder.

“Force-feed her 10 chili peppers. Let her reflect on herself!”

My heart pounded.

He knew I was allergic to chili. Even a little would trigger my asthma.

Several employees grabbed me without hesitation, pried my mouth open, and shoved red chili peppers inside.

I cried out in pain, “Jason…”

However, he had already rushed Olivia into the ambulance without even looking back.

One employee sneered even more boldly, saying, “Miss Olivia is the one he truly cares about. Stop dreaming.”

I did not know how much time had passed. My mouth had gone numb, and I gasped violently for air.

When they saw that I was having an asthma attack, they panicked and left me there.

Messages kept popping up on my phone from Olivia.

[How do the devil peppers I picked for you taste? If you go against me, I will play you to death.]

[I ran over your mother on purpose. Do you think Jason does not know? As long as I am happy, he would even die for me.]

[By the way, I enjoyed spending the 10,000,000 dollars. Maybe, next time, I will use your father instead.]

I lay on the floor in despair. My vision was fading. I did not even have the strength to call the police.

Then, Olivia showed up and started a livestream.

“You didn’t think I would let you off so easily, did you? Otherwise, all this suffering would have been for nothing.”

She pulled open my clothes and deliberately filmed me in a suggestive way.

The livestream quickly filled with 10,000 viewers.

They sent virtual gifts and demanded I crawl like a dog.

I could not endure it anymore. Gathering all my strength, I punched Olivia in the face.

In the next second, Jason shoved me away violently.

“How dare you hit her?!”

No matter how miserable I looked or how hard it was for me to breathe, he acted as if he could not see it.

He only cared about checking the bruise on her face.

“I was just trying to promote the company through a livestream. I didn’t expect her to react like this. If she hates me so much, I might as well die!”

She turned and ran toward the rooftop.

It was a twenty-story drop.

His voice trembled in panic.

“Come back! She is not worth this. I like you. That is enough!”

She still insisted on asking, “Then, between Megan and me, who do you love more?”

He hesitated for a second.

Then, he gave the answer I already knew.

“You, of course.”

“Then, make her apologize, or I will jump.”

He gritted his teeth and grabbed me.

“Hurry and apologize. Do you want to watch her die?”

My breathing grew more labored. My heart ached.

“Do you know what she did to me?” I tried to take out my phone to show him.

However, he lost all patience and slapped it away. “Hurry up!”

He forced my head down and made me bow to her.

She finally pretended to be generous.

“Fine, I will forgive her. But you owe me a trip around the world!”

Still shaken, he hugged her and nodded repeatedly.

“Okay, whatever you want.”

My consciousness faded. The suffocating pressure turned my face purple.

Yet he took her straight to the airport, not sparing me a glance.

In the end, a cleaning lady called for help.

When the doctor saw my condition, his expression turned grave.

“The patient is suffering from oxygen deprivation to the brain. Where is her family? We must begin emergency treatment immediately.”

They used my phone to call Jason, but he did not answer.

Then, they called through the front desk. The call connected after a few seconds.

“Mr. Langley, Megan is critically ill. The doctor needs to perform emergency treatment—”

He cut her off impatiently.

“What is she pretending to do this time? Ignore her. I’m busy with Olivia. Do not bother me with her nonsense.”

The call ended.

My heartbeat grew weaker.

As my consciousness blurred, someone grabbed my hand and said urgently to the doctor, “I am her husband. Do whatever it takes. No matter the cost, make sure she survives!”
