Burned by Love, Destroyed by Revenge

After saying that, he gently kissed my forehead.

The movements were as gentle and affectionate as before.

But I could no longer feel his warmth.

It turned out that a person could really act out to this extent for revenge.

When my mother got married for the second time into the McNamara Family, I couldn't lift my head under the stigma of being the daughter of a mistress at the wedding.

Hid in the corner and cried loudly.

It was Gustav's appearance that gave me the only salvation.

He solved the rumors and gossip outside for me.

He said he would protect me for the rest of my life and be my support.

I believed his words.

I was addicted to the tenderness he gave me and couldn't extricate myself.

Little did I know that everything was part of his premeditated revenge.

The so-called love was all illusion.

He was the one who tried to push me into the abyss.

While Gustav was working, I sent a message to my mother.

[Mom, I want to study abroad.]

[Don't tell our family about this yet.]

On the way back, he pretended to speak casually.

"Dad is urging me to get married and I've already found a friend to help me act."

“Don't worry, you're always the only one I love. She promised to keep it a secret for me. I'll stay at home with you in the future."

I looked at the scenery outside the window and nodded silently.

Tears fell silently.

Soon, we got home. I immediately unlocked his phone while he was washing up.

The number which had been pinned on his chat was Jennifer Winston.

As soon as I clicked into his chat box with her, besides the cute emojis, it was filled with surveillance videos from my bedroom.

Their conversation was even more heart-wrenching.

[I said, I only have revenge on her, these videos, I'll release them at the wedding and after that day, Quinna will be completely expelled from the McNamaras. The only one who will stay by my side will be you.]

[Before you come into my family, I will clear all obstacles for you and only happiness will greet you in the future.]

[I love you, Jennifer.]

I raised my eyes to the doll he gave me six years ago.

In the dim light.

The doll's eyes flashed a strange red light.

It turned out that he had been planning how to remove me as an obstacle from the very beginning.

It was ridiculous that I was still indulging in his hypocritical lies.

I considered myself happy.

I clicked into Gustav's private photo album.

All that caught my eye were pictures of him and Jennifer together.

The two of them had been together since college.

The photos recorded their past love.

On every important holiday, he used the excuse of being busy with work.

In fact, he had been by Jennifer's side.

Every gift given to me, Jennifer had it.

But every gift given to Jennifer, I didn't have it.

The second chat box was a record of conversations with the wedding company.

Gustav started preparing for the wedding six months ago.

From the wedding venue to the dishes.

He did everything himself.

Even the surveillance videos were made by him himself.

Just to completely expose the emotion that shouldn't exist at the wedding.

Just a moment before Gustav entered the door.

I turned off my phone.

I bought myself a plane ticket to go abroad in three days.

At the dinner table, Thomas McNamara mentioned his son's marriage from time to time.

Gustav pretended tirelessly.

Agreed casually.

The wedding set in three days.

The cutlery in my hand lost control and fell.

The meal was tasteless.

After dinner, my mother called me into the room with a worried expression on her face.

"Why are you suddenly going abroad? Didn't you insist on joining the company with your brother? Have you told him about going abroad?"

Looking at my mother's half-white hair, my nose felt sore.
