Chapter 1

My sister Olivia Marquez was raped, the evidence was overwhelming, and the murderer was acquitted.

Private photos taken at the scene were also spread and became known to the entire Internet.

Olivia couldn't bear the excitement and jumped off the roof.

As a lawyer, the elder brother insisted on prosecuting the murderer Jax Mason, but before the trial, he was locked up in the hospital morgue by the kidnappers for five hours and the evidence was taken away.

I myself was also caught up in the public opinion storm. Every day people came to my doorstep to make trouble, and my mother-in-law was scared by the troublemakers and had a sudden heart attack.

I called my husband, James Carter, a cardiologist, and told him that Mom needed surgery.

Unexpectedly, James' childhood sweetheart Jade bet with someone a lipstick, saying that she could perform heart surgery with one hand.

In order to win the bet, James asked Jade , an intern who was not qualified to perform the surgery, to perform the thoracotomy.

The operation failed, and during the autopsy, a thong was found in the mother-in-law's chest cavity.

It was clearly dropped during the operation.

I took the autopsy report to James' office and he was holding Jade to comfort her.

I hid at the door and heard their conversation.

The office door was ajar, and Jade 's crying voice mixed with James 's soothing voice came from inside.

" Jim , I'm going to trouble you again this time . But if you hadn't said it was more exciting in the operating room, why would my thong fall down?"

"It's just that Sophia's... Sophia Marquez 's sister Olivia just got into trouble, and you just helped me perjure my brother to get him off the hook. Even though my brother didn't do it on purpose, he just had a few too many drinks. But if the Marquez family keeps making a fuss about this and even messes up the surgery, will we..."

What? James and his childhood sweetheart had been sleeping together for a long time? To exonerate Jade 's brother, James even perjured himself, murdered my sister, kidnapped my brother, and plunged our family into the abyss?

I was waiting for James' response, afraid to hear him admit it himself, afraid that he really did these things.

We were once a model couple that everyone in our circle envied.

I fell in love with him at first sight at the university opening ceremony. He pursued me for four years. In order to be with him, I even gave up the opportunity to study abroad and gave him my promotion quota, just to take better care of him and his family and let him have no worries.

Even though his childhood sweetheart's brother hurt my sister, I didn't blame James .

There was silence for a few seconds, until James coughed lightly.

My hands were shaking and I covered my mouth tightly, afraid of making any sound. With one hand I turned on the recording on my phone.

Then I heard James's cold voice.

"Don't worry, Sophia is just a housewife. We used to fool her family before, and now she doesn't even have a mother. What kind of trouble can an orphan girl cause? The operation just failed, it's not a big deal. Just like the last time you gave false evidence to help your brother get away with it, you can do it again."

" Jim , you're amazing. Last time, you even figured out how to pretend to be a kidnapper, steal the evidence, and then frame her sister for seduction."

"Only in this way, by breaking Sophia's wings bit by bit and leaving her without support, will she stay by my side and never leave me. This is the fourth time I've helped you. You saved me back then, and I promised to do five things for you. The last one is to hold a wedding with you in seven days. In seven days, Sophia will only have me. I will accompany her for the rest of her life and make it up to her."

Jade's eyes flashed with jealousy, and she said softly, "Then Jim , let's go to your house tonight and put on another show. Make Sophia jealous, and she'll care about you more."

I saved the recording, opened the door and walked in, pretending I hadn't heard the conversation.

Jade looked at me provocatively with her clothes disheveled, but I didn't have the heart to pay attention to it anymore.

I asked James to issue a certificate and send Jade to the police station, but James forced me to sign a letter of apology , asking me to admit that this was not a surgical accident and not to hold Jade responsible.

" Jade and her brother are helpless. You first framed her brother and then her. I know you're jealous of Jade for having my love. I've already got a marriage certificate with you, can't you be more generous?"

"It was just an accident. Your mother was already dead when she was brought in."

"This matter ends here. Hurry up and sign the letter of apology so that your mother can rest in peace."

So, he thought it was my mother who died?

I laughed to myself and pulled out my phone. " Mom, I'll do as you say and marry Henry Carter , the only son of the richest man . But James's mother is very kind to me. I want to wait until her funeral is over in seven days before I leave. "

" Okay, Mom will go abroad to prepare for you first, and then come back to pick you up after you're done. "
