His First Love Took Everything Away From Me

The pool water rushed into my nose, choking me instantly.

I flailed my arms and shouted toward the second-floor balcony, "Daniel! Help me!"

I saw Daniel rush down in a panic, but he stopped at the edge of the pool.

Then, he pulled Jennifer into his arms. "You’ve suffered because of Natalie. Now it's her turn to be taught a lesson."

He looked down at me as I struggled, eyes full of despair, but he didn’t move.

I stared at him in shock, my heart sinking. Soon, everything went dark and I grew weaker from lack of air.

Right before I lost consciousness, Daniel took off his jacket, jumped in and pulled me out. His eyes were cold. "Natalie, this is just a small warning. If you hurt Jennifer again, I don’t know what I’ll do."

When I woke up, loud arguing from downstairs pulled me back.

I opened the bedroom door and saw Daniel and Jennifer fighting.

Jennifer was holding a suitcase in one hand and gripping Rihanna’s arm with the other, pretending to be on the verge of tears.

"Daniel, let go. Instead of waiting for Natalie to kick us out, I’d rather take Rihanna and leave now."

With that, she shook off Daniel’s hand and turned to leave.

Daniel’s eyes were full of pity and pain. He stepped forward and wrapped his arms around Jennifer’s waist. "No, as long as I’m here, no one will dare chase you away. You and Rihanna can stay here forever. What happened yesterday was Natalie’s fault. I’ve already punished her. She won’t touch you again."

I slowly walked down the stairs, glaring at Jennifer with a cold smile.

"If you really wanted to leave, you wouldn’t have waited until today. You should’ve left last night while Daniel was asleep."

Seeing Daniel hesitate, Jennifer bit her lip and suddenly dropped to her knees.

"Natalie, all of this is my fault. I shouldn’t have come between you and Daniel. If you two are okay now, I’ll leave."

She stood up, opened the villa door and was about to walk out when Daniel grabbed her arm and yelled, "Enough!"

He turned to me, eyes full of anger. "Natalie, don’t you think this house is chaotic enough? Jennifer has never done anything to hurt you, so why do you keep going after her?"

His voice was filled with disappointment. "Natalie, we’ve been married for three years. When did you become so jealous? I barely recognize you anymore."

I lowered my head and sneered, stepping closer. "You don’t recognize me because your heart was never with me. All you care about is Jennifer."

"Since you’ve chosen to let her stay, I’ll go."

Everything in the villa was covered in Daniel’s scent. I didn’t want any of it anymore, so I left everything behind.

As I stepped out the door, Daniel’s angry voice followed me. "Natalie, there’s a limit to jealousy. If you walk out today, don’t bother coming back!"

I didn’t turn around. I just said it to myself—Fine, I won’t come back.

After leaving the villa, I took out my phone and sent a message.

[When will the heart source be found?]

The reply came quickly, [We’ve got news. Just wait two more days.]

In two days, I’d be able to leave this place for good.
