“Whoever dares to upset me, they’ll make sure to eliminate the obstacle for my sake.”
I still had no expression on my face and my heart was numb.
When I decided to leave, I had already sentenced this relationship to death.
Martina stood up suddenly, grabbed the clothes on my chest and her eyes were as vicious as poison as she cursed, “Lindsey, I truly wish you were dead. But if you were gone, life would be far too dull.
“Oh, and I almost forgot to mention. Dad only instructed that man to tie you up and keep you from taking the exam. I was the one who paid him to torture you.
“I want you to be nothing but a useless, broken shell for the rest of your life, not even worthy of being my stepping stone.”
I raised my head suddenly, with only one thought in my mind, ‘I will kill her!’

"Ah! Don't hit me!"
"Martina, are you okay?"
