Chapter 3

Back then, I could barely make a living by picking up garbage.

When Elina, the school bully, saw this, she directly led people to surround me, forced me to eat garbage, scalded me with cigarette butts, and robbed me of the money for selling waste.

Just because I was a bastard that no one wanted... I could be bullied at will.

My memory was interrupted by a burst of pain in my body. I covered the right side of my face that had been slapped by her.

"You can't react until I hit you. You're really a bitch." Elina pointed at my nose and cursed fiercely.

She grabbed my ear tightly and warned me.

"If you dare to mention the past in front of Dean, I will definitely not let you off!"

I nodded in a daze.

"Selina, don't you know how to cook for me?"

While I was cleaning Elina's room, Dean's furious voice suddenly came from the dining room.

I was stunned.

Usually, I would cook a big table of his favorite dishes, but he didn't even look at them.

There were even a few times when I knocked them over and picked up the food on the ground.

Why did he suddenly...

I didn't have time to think and ran to the kitchen while Elina was frowning.

I quickly made a table full of dishes.

When they sat down, the porridge and side dishes for myself were still warm.

"You, peel the crabs for me!"

She arrogantly stopped me from entering the kitchen again.

I looked at Dean's cold eyes and began to peel the crab silently.

"Dean, thank you for preparing so many dishes for me."

She turned to look at Dean and kissed him shyly on the cheek.

Dean was obviously a little stunned. His cheeks and ears were flushed. It was rare to see such an innocent look.

In a trance, it seemed to be Edward snuggling up with another woman.

I froze on the spot.

However, my hand was accidentally pierced by the crab pincers. She snorted and complained, "You can't even do this? Fortunately, it was you who was stabbed. You can't even afford if you stab me!"

Dean casually raised his eyes, put down the chopsticks in his hand, and smiled meaningfully. "She's right. Then I'll punish you to swallow this crab leg. Don't chew it."

I frowned. Did he even know what he was talking about?

"It's just a cut in the throat. Worse, it will cause stomach bleeding." He said lightly, "It doesn't matter. I have money. Even if you die, I have money to compensate you."

I was so angry that I even laughed.

He paid no attention to it, and his cold eyes sparkled with provocation.

"You can either eat this crab leg or let Carrie eat it. Pick one."

As soon as he said that, I felt as if I had fallen into an ice cellar.

Carrie was the nanny of the Watson family and had taken care of them for many years.

While Dean was torturing me, she spoke up for me several times.

Now that Dean wanted to threaten me with Carrie, he knew that I wouldn't be able to bear it...

The bitch covered her mouth and giggled.

I took a deep breath and clenched my fists.

The next moment, I made up my mind. I picked up the crab leg and stuffed it into my mouth in a fit of pique.

No matter how well he pretended, I would no longer be in a trance, because Edward's love for me had always been warm and sincere.

He would never let me suffer even the slightest grievance.

On the other hand, Dean was just a devil.

There was a sharp pain in my throat, and my mouth was instantly filled with the smell of blood. Every time I swallowed, I felt as if I was suffering.

A dark red flush seeped out of the tightly shut corner of my mouth.

Dean frowned. He had only wanted to make things difficult for me, but he hadn't expected me to go all out.

I could hold my head high and endure all the sufferings in the world as long as no one had given me a trace of warmth.

But Edward, who had once warmed me, was gone now.

Instead, it was the devil, Dean, who brought me endless pain!
