Chapter 1

In the third year of my illness, Ian Whitman's lover came back.

That day, I stood at his door holding the cake I made for him.

But I heard him tell Lisa Coleman.

"Lisa, you are the only one in my heart. You are the one I love!

"When she dies, we'll get married immediately!"

***

The cake in my hand fell to the ground. My friends behind me who were called over to celebrate Ian's birthday fell silent.

In the room, the conversation between the two continued.

Lisa seemed to be very upset and accused loudly.

"You said that the person you love is me! Then why did you agree to get engaged to her?

"What did you tell me before? You said you would wait for me and marry me!

"Now you're telling me that you have to wait until she dies before you can marry me? I'm afraid that I won't be able to wait until she dies!"

Ian said, "Lisa, don't say that. I am sorry. But you have to believe me. She is really dying. The doctor said she only has a year left!"

I listened to Ian's panicked voice.

I just felt my stomach churning.

It turned out that he had been waiting for the day I die.

If I died, he could marry Lisa.

But why?

I didn't get cancer!

It was because I was hit on the head by a huge truck for him and injured my head!

What were these two people doing now?

They were discussing the date of my death.

"Paisley, are you okay?"

Behind me, my best friend, Maria Davis, came forward worriedly and held my hand.

"Damn it, Ian is such a scumbag! How dare he do this to you? I'm going to go in and scold him!"

Maria was ready to rush in angrily.

I held her back and said calmly.

"Wait a minute. I want to hear more."

"But..."

I patted her hands and signaled her to stay calm.

I really wanted to know how they would arrange the time I had left.

"Ian, I don't care how much time she has left to live. I'm only giving you two choices now. You break off your engagement with her, or I leave!

"If you are a man, call her immediately to make a decision. Otherwise, I will leave the country immediately and never come back!"

Lisa threatened Ian.

Ian remained silent.

Maybe he was struggling with how to tell me this?

"Lisa, listen to me. I will find time to explain this to her. I promise. I will tell her as soon as possible.

"You know she loves me so much. Without me, she definitely wouldn't be able to survive for more than a year..."

I sneered.

How shameless this man was!

I couldn't stand it anymore!

Letting go of Maria, I pushed open the door expressionlessly and stepped forward.

Before the two of them could react, I slapped the remaining cake in my hand on Ian's face!

The cake was scattered all over Lisa.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

Lisa reacted, screamed, and quickly took a tissue to wipe Ian's face.

Before I could say anything, Maria couldn't stand it anymore. Maria walked over from behind me, grabbed Lisa's hair and pulled her in front of me.

"What the fuck are you doing? Bitch. Ian begged you not to leave, but you didn't even turn back.

"Now that he's dating Paisley, you can't suppress your inner rage and come back to harass Ian.

"Why are you so cheap? The men you dated abroad couldn't satisfy you, right? Why do you have to compete with Paisley for a man?

"I'll teach you a lesson today!"

Maria dragged Lisa angrily.

Lisa collapsed on the ground, making a shrill cry for help.

"Ian! Stop this crazy woman. This woman is crazy!"

I crossed my arms and looked at Ian coldly.

"You don't dare to help her!"

He said, "Paisley, tell Maria to stop! This isn't her fault!

"Blame me. I'm sorry for you. I deserve to die!"

Ian wiped the cake off his face and seemed a little anxious when he heard Lisa's cry for help.

I said, "Why should I stop? She's such a bitch. She likes to interfere in other people's relationship so much. She should be punished.

"I remember you told me before that your mother committed suicide because someone else interfered with her relationship!

"You said you hated this kind of people the most! Why are you speaking for Lisa now?"

I sneered and attacked Ian with the most poisonous words.

"If I let Lisa go now, can you also ask your dead mother to forgive that mistress?"

Ian's face turned pale. He looked at me in disbelief, as if he didn't know me.

"Paisley! You are the mistress! Ian and I knew each other long before you. The one Ian has always loved is me! How dare you call me a mistress!"

Lisa screamed on the ground without caring about her image.

Maria slapped her hard on the face. And her fair and flawless face instantly turned red.

"Ah! You bitch, you dare to hit me! I'll fight you!"

Lisa got up from the ground like crazy and wrestled with Maria.

"Paisley! Let Lisa go!"

Ian was also enraged when he saw Lisa being beaten.

His face flushed red, and he clenched his fists.

I said, "Hey, what's wrong? Are you feeling sad? You didn't feel sad when I blocked the car for you, but you felt sad when Lisa was just slapped.

"Boring. Ian, break up! I wish you and this bitch a long and happy life together!"

After saying that, I ignored everyone and dragged the furious Maria away.

The people invited here today were all Ian's friends, not mine.

I only brought my best friend, Maria.

When I reached the door, I remembered something and turned to face Ian.

"Please return all the house, car, and gifts I bought for you within three days!

"This apartment is also mine. Please take your mistress and get out of here immediately!

"And please tell your dad that the wedding is cancelled. You don't have to wait until I die to be with that bitch. You can live together now!"

Ian followed in my footsteps, but was stopped by my words.

Lisa on the ground was stiff and looked up at Ian.

I took Maria and left without looking back.
