While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

While I Was Bleeding Out, He Lit Lanterns For Her

Katie Oettgen
As I lay on the floor of our manor, bleeding out from a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, I used my last ounce of strength to call my husband, Cole. I begged him for help, my vision blurring. But the only thing I heard was the clinking of champagne glasses and his mistress's giggle in the background. "Stop the drama, June," Cole snapped, his voice cold. "We're about to go on stage. Don't call again." He hung up, leaving me to die alone on the Persian rug while he accepted an award with another woman on his arm. I woke up in the hospital days later. My baby was gone. They had removed my fallopian tube. Cole finally arrived, smelling of expensive scotch and his mistress's perfume. He didn't hug me. He didn't cry. Instead, he leaned over my hospital bed, pressing his knee into the mattress until my fresh stitches tore open and bled. "You embarrassed me by calling an ambulance," he hissed. "My mistress, Alycia, says you're faking it. Clean yourself up." He left me bleeding again to go announce a $10 million donation to Alycia's "groundbreaking" medical research. I stared at the TV screen, numb. The research Alycia was taking credit for? It was mine. I wrote that patent years ago under a pseudonym. They thought I was just a poor, orphan housewife who needed Cole's money to survive. They had no idea I was actually a billionaire scientist hiding my identity. I pulled the IV needle out of my arm. A drop of blood fell onto the divorce papers I had been hiding. I didn't wipe it off. I signed my name right over it. Then I walked into the bank, reactivated my dormant account with $128 million, and bought the penthouse directly overlooking Cole's house. The mourning widow is dead. The avenger is born.

"Mom, aren't you afraid of retribution?" Nancy looked at the hideous middle-aged woman and said incredulously.

She was only 19 years old. Should her mother ask her to sleep with a retarded man for money!

Despite her protest, Mary tied Nancy up, sent her to the hotel, and forced her to sleep with that retarded man tonight!

She couldn't believe that this was her biological mother!

Mary fiercely pushed Nancy into a luxurious presidential suite. Inside the room, a man was biting his fingers, drooling and mumbling, "I see beauty, I want beauty..."

"Hey girl, stop gabbling." Mary said fiercely, "Parents make the final call. I ask you to marry Second Junior Master of Lake Family, and you do it. Tonight, you serve the master right, or face the consequences!"

Then her tone turned soft, and she threatened and coaxed, "Nancy, you know our family is poor. Although the Second Junior Master of Lake Family is retarded, he is born in a wealthy merchant family. If you sleep with him for one night and bear his seed, you will live a life free of care."

Nancy suddenly widened her beautiful eyes, "Mom is purchasing that great life. Lake Family must have given you a lot money so that you are willing to sell your daughter."

As her thought was seen through, Mary immediately pulled a long face.

Lake Family promised her 200 thousand yuan for sending Nancy there and another 300 thousand when the girl got pregnant!

A total of 500 thousand yuan! It was an enormous amount of money for a poor family. With the fortune, they could live a completely different life!

It was not a bad deal to marry Nancy to a retarded man in exchange for 500 thousand yuan!

All of a sudden, Mary raised her hand and slapped Nancy, "I'll say it one last time. Tonight, you serve the junior master of Lake Family right!"

Following her words, she slammed shut the door of the presidential suite.

In the room, five red fingerprints still lingered on the delicate cheek of the dazed woman, and a drop of crystal tear fell from her eye.

The mentally challenged man, around five feet in height, came up from behind and tugged at Nancy, "Beauty, sleep with me... sleep."

Despite her sadness, Nancy now only had one idea in her mind.
