Chapter 3

The panic was creeping out onto his face, but soon turned into anger. "Can you please stop threatening me with breaking up? If I really do what you said, wouldn't I be accused of being heartless and abandoning my disabled girlfriend?"

He pointed at my nose and said, "Stop being unreasonable, or I will really break up with you!"

I looked at him coldly and replied, "I can't wait to get it."

After saying that, I turned around and left, ignoring everyone's gazes.

I heard him scoff from behind. "There's nothing I need to chase after her. She will come back in less than two days. She got pregnant with my child with great difficulty. How could we really break up?"

My breath froze and a strong hatred surged in my eyes.

Because of the sudden death of my parents, Charles was always unable to accompany me for various reasons. Then I had desperately hoped to have someone else connected by blood ties, so I mentioned to him that I wanted a child of my own.

However, he always felt that I wanted to tie him down with the child, so I would carefully take measure every time we were intimate.

Until one night two months ago, he suddenly came to me drunk.

I got pregnant with his child then. When I told him, he only slightly tugged at the corner of his mouth and said in a sarcastic tone, "Finally, it's as you wish."

It was clearly his initiative, but he felt that it was a deliberate plot on my part.

I should have come to my senses at that time, but because I could not let go of our nine-year relationship, I agreed to his marriage proposal and gave them the opportunity to hurt me.

In my previous life, Hailey came into our house directly after we got married and that was when I found out about it.

It turned out that she was Charles' childhood sweetheart and neighbor. Although they were seven years apart, their relationship has always been very good.

The two families even jokingly arranged a marriage for their children, but it was dropped after Charles and I started dating.

That was why Charles blamed himself so much after she was disfigured and even took her back to our house.

In my previous life, since he felt that it was me who owed Hailey, he took my property for her to squander after my death and called it as atonement.

The pain of being burned alive struck again and my gaze turned cold as I looked ahead.

I confidently made an appointment to have an abortion.

I would not let go of anyone who hurt me.

Suddenly, I received a message from Charles on my phone. [Bring me the key I left at the entrance of the villa.]

A remote location popped up on the screen.

I clenched my phone tightly and swallowed two pills expressionlessly.

It looked like this message sent by Charles. But I knew it was Hailey's work.

Charles had always been arrogant and had a strong sense of self-esteem. Every time we have a dispute or a quarrel, I was the one who apologizes. He never took the initiative to give in.

Hailey was his childhood sweetheart. She could easily get his mobile phone.

Without hesitation, I drove directly to the destination.

Hailey's purpose could not be more obvious, but I knew that there were tigers on the mountain, but I preferred to go to the Tigris Mountain.

It was because I had already made plans. I was not that stupid to come voluntarily.

This road was getting more and more remote and the half waist high reeds were even going to submerge the car.

After driving for a while, I had to get out of the car and walk. I walked for ten minutes before I saw a broken abandoned house.

I stopped and looked ahead in silence.

However, there was suddenly a hit on the back of my head and I instantly lost consciousness.

I struggled to see the scene in front of me clearly, but someone suddenly grabbed my hair and pulled it back. "Are you pretending to be unconscious, bitch?"

Hailey glared at me, full of resentment and cruelty. "Didn't you see that Charles doesn't love you? Do you have to rely on your child to tie him up? What a despicable!"

Beside her stood three sleazy men and one of the taller men even teased and pinched her butt.

Hailey's eyes flashed with disgust, but she still smiled and punched him. "She is the one who cut off our source of income. I had hidden the ruby ​​and stole it that day, but she insisted on doing a fire hazard inspection."

I did not know if Charles knew that the seemingly pure and innocent young girl next door was actually the core figure of a gang of thieves.

In my previous life, I accidentally learned that Hailey was hiding in the jewelry counter under the guise of a part-time job just to steal gems and I had intended to expose this matter.

However, I did not expect her to realize it in advance and urge Charles to get me killed.

She lifted my chin with a displeased expression and said, "Let me see how you can still cause trouble after you die."

I stared at her intently and sneered. "You dare to kill me? Aren't you afraid that Charles will find out about this?"

I could tell at a glance that Hailey had genuinely a heart to Charles, so I continued to provoke her. "I have been with him for so many years. If he liked you, how could he still have me? You're just a spare tire that can't be seen in the light! Disgusting!"

She slapped me in the face and retorted. "Do you think he cares about you? He didn't break up with you just because of the child. I wonder if you can still be arrogant without this piece of flesh."

She suddenly raised her legs and pressed them against my stomach, not stopping until blood appeared.

I curled up on the ground in pain and my face was pale.

The three men started pouring gasoline with a sinister smile. Hailey glanced at her phone and said, "I'm leaving first. You guys take care of it. I'll find a way to steal four million two hundred thousand dollars worth of gemstone tomorrow."

The gasoline was instantly ignited and I was surrounded by the fire.
