Chapter 1
After Lucas Vincent's First Love gave birth to a stillborn baby again,
He insisted that my three-year-old daughter was born with bad luck, which was why the baby boy in her belly died.
The next day, the daughter was tied to a cross and covered with steel spikes.
A total of 299 pills, and the last one pierced her heart directly.
Looking at my bloody daughter in the video, I broke down and cried out of fear:
"Lucas, you bastard! She is your biological daughter, how can you be so cruel!"
Lucas pinched my jaw and said with disgust:
"If they hadn't forced me back then, you wouldn't be worthy of giving birth to my child!"
"Now we just want her to bleed her brother, why can't she bear it?"
Seeing him so indifferent, I could only kneel on the ground and beg.
But Lucas couldn't wait to pick up First Love and go into the room.
That night, my daughter's painful moans became the tonic for his orgasm, and I listened to them the whole night while being restrained by the bodyguards.
The next day, Lucas finally came out satisfied and threw me a bunch of keys.
"Go ahead, tell her to pray that Isabella's baby is safe this time, otherwise next time the punishment won't be as simple as hammering nails."
I crawled towards the Storage Shed, but when I opened the door I saw a dead body that had already stopped breathing.
I rushed my daughter to the hospital frantically, and Arthur Vincent, who received the news, arrived in time.
I fell to my knees before him and begged:
"The child is dead, please let me go. I have already paid back what I owed to Vincent Family with my life."
……
Arthur froze and looked at the red light at the door of the operating room:
"What on earth happened! How could the child be injured so badly?"
I looked down at my hands that were stained with my daughter's blood. My throat felt like it was stuffed with a sharp stone. It was stuck and swollen, and I couldn't utter a single coherent syllable.
Seeing me like this, Arthur's eyes were full of pity, and he could only comfort me:
"Don't worry. I have arranged for the best doctor to come in and check Emily. She is our Vincent Family's child. She will definitely be lucky..."
But before he could finish, the doctor cruelly shattered his last glimmer of hope.
"I'm sorry, we've tried our best."
"The child was already dead when she was brought in. We removed all the steel spikes from her body, 299 in total. She was in so much pain that she died!"
"It's so cruel! Who on earth could be so cruel to a three-year-old child?"
Hearing this, my legs went weak and I collapsed to the ground.
I can't say that the culprit is the child's biological father...
Just because he wanted the baby in First Love's belly to be safe and healthy, he killed his own daughter with his own hands.
When I thought of my daughter being nailed to the cross in a spread-eagle position,
When I think about how she was tortured to death...
My heart ached so much that it felt like it was about to explode, and I couldn't breathe.
Arthur was also so angry that he stamped his feet:
"Beast! This beast!"
"How could he do such a stupid thing! Don't worry! I'll make him come over here and apologize to you and Emily right now!"
Arthur took out his cell phone and was about to call Lucas.
But I stopped him, "Don't fight, it's useless."
I once naively went to Arthur to seek justice.
What he got in return was Lucas's even more crazy revenge.
I remember the first time, it was not long after I gave birth to Emily. He brought a drunk Isabella Rossi home and asked me to make sobering soup for her.
Chapter 2
Just because the temperature was a little bit higher, he poured the whole bowl of soup on me and made me stand outside the door all night.
The next day, Arthur came home and saw the burns on my body. Without saying a word, he asked Lucas to come back and kneel down as punishment.
He did so.
But after Arthur left, Lucas grabbed my jaw tightly and said, "Okay, Sophie Evans, you are quite capable. You have learned to complain!"
"I'm telling you, don't think I can't do anything to you just because you have Arthur's support. I have plenty of ways to deal with you!"
That night, he made me kneel on the balcony with my baby who was less than a month old, and listen to him and Isabella's passionate lovemaking all night long.
The next day, my daughter had a high fever and developed pneumonia.
As a result, I developed back pain.
After that, no matter what excessive things Lucas did, I never mentioned it to Arthur.
What's more, Emily is dead now, and asking him to come over would only offend his daughter.
While I was deep in thought, the nurse came to us pushing my daughter's bed.
With trembling fingertips, I lifted the white cloth covering her body.
There was not a single piece of intact skin on the body that had not yet fully developed, and blood was even oozing out of the holes.
I reached out my hand to touch her, but I didn't know where to put my hand.
In the end, he could only throw himself on his daughter and scream heartbreakingly:
"Emily——! Mom is sorry for you!"
"Don't go, don't leave mom alone, please, I beg you, please!"
People around me looked at me with pity. Arthur wiped his tears and tried to snatch the white cloth from my hand.
"Sophie, please don't do this. Emily in heaven would be sad if she saw this."
But no matter how hard he pulled, I refused to let go, leaving a bloody mark on the quilt.
It wasn't until the doctor injected me with a sedative that I lost my last bit of strength, closed my eyes, and passed out.
When I opened my eyes again, I was lying on the ward, and Arthur was sitting next to me. He seemed to be a few years older.
I closed my eyes, tears silently falling:
"My child is gone, please let me go. I have already paid back what I owed to Vincent Family with my life."
Arthur was reluctant, but he finally nodded.
"Sophie, I was selfish and kept you in Vincent Family for so many years. I have wronged you. I will have someone notarize the divorce agreement for you."
"As for Emily..."
Before he could finish, I interrupted him:
"I want to take it away."
Emily has suffered too much in her life, there is no way I can let her stay in Vincent Family.
Arthur nodded, "Okay, then let Emily come with you. The child will be cremated tomorrow. After the cremation, I will have someone buy you a plane ticket to go abroad."
"Good boy, go live your life."
After saying that, Arthur hunched over and turned away.
The tears that I had been holding back in my eyes could no longer be held back and burst out.
Old memories also came to mind.
Lucas and I were not supposed to have any intersection.
My parents died ten years ago, and it was Arthur who found me and funded my college education.
After I started working, I offered to repay the sponsorship fees, but Arthur said he didn't want the money and only hoped that I could help his grandson who had just lost both parents and felt betrayed.
That was also the day I met Lucas for the first time.
His tall and handsome appearance made my heart beat wildly, but I didn’t think much about it.
Instead, she stayed by his side day and night and learned how to sober up.
Chapter 3
Later, Arthur asked him to marry me, and Lucas agreed after hesitating for a few seconds.
I was happy then.
Because Lucas was really good to me. He would book all the fireworks in the city to celebrate my birthday, and he would drive hundreds of kilometers just to fulfill my wishes because of a casual remark I made.
I thought he was loving, just like me.
Until the wedding day, his First Love who dumped him came back and said that Arthur forced her to leave.
Lucas was furious and wanted to cancel the engagement, but was held down by Arthur's men and the wedding ceremony was completed.
He was drugged that night and spent a ridiculous night with me.
After waking up, he threw a contract in my face with disgust on his face.
"Sophie, I thought you were at least sincere to me, but I didn't expect you were with me just for money!"
"Then congratulations! You have achieved your goal. From now on, you will be the wealthy and prosperous Mrs. Gu, but don't even think about getting any love from me!"
After saying that, Lucas slammed the door and left.
I bent down to pick up the contract that Arthur and I had signed without even having the chance to explain.
Since then, Lucas started to become more and more outrageous. He appeared in various places with Isabella in a dignified manner.
This made me, Mrs. Gu, a laughing stock in the entire Metropolis City.
I had also proposed a divorce, but unexpectedly I found out that I was pregnant.
After Arthur found out, he almost begged me, "Give birth to this child. It may be a turning point in your marriage."
I hold on to the last glimmer of hope.
Select Agree.
At the same time, it is also a gamble on whether Lucas can change his mind.
But who would have thought,
What he got was that he stabbed his daughter's body with steel spikes.
I just realized,
turn out to be,
I lost miserably.
If I had known this earlier, I would have taken my daughter and run away rather than stay in this ice cellar.
But now,
I have nothing left.
And it's time to end this marriage that is in name only.
That night, I stayed with Emily's body in the hospital morgue until all the formalities were completed, and then watched the funeral home people take her away.
I dragged my tired body back home and wanted to pick out a nice photo for my daughter.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw the mess on the floor and heard faint conversations coming from the room.
"Honey, slow down... You're so strong today..."
"Is it...is it that changing places...is it particularly exciting?"
The man's voice was hoarse and full of lust.
"You know what... I really feel a little different..."
I couldn't believe it and followed the sound to my daughter's room.
When I opened the door, I saw Isabella riding on Lucas, naked, and under her feet was the portrait I was going to choose for my daughter.
My eyes turned red, I rushed forward, grabbed Isabella's head and smashed it to the ground.
"You bitch! She's just a child, do you have any shame?"
Isabella desperately begged for help, and I showed no mercy.
He raised his hand to slap her in the face, but before he could touch her, he was violently kicked out by someone from the side. His head hit the edge of the bed, and blood flowed down his forehead.
I looked up, but was met with Lucas' furious eyes.
"Sophie, are you crazy? How dare you hit her in front of me!"
"Believe it or not, I will make you and your daughter get out of Vincent Family right now!"
