My Boyfriend Got His Karma after Deceiving Me

The more I scrolled down, the heavier my heart sank, like falling into a bottomless abyss.

I couldn't help but wonder, did Arsen know everything Amelia had done?

With trembling hands, I took out my phone and saved every photo and comment without missing a single detail.

Right after I did that, another message from Amelia popped up: [Arsen, don't forget to give Celine the thing I prepared.]

[If tonight's livestream goes well, your company's funding will be secured. Then you won't need Celine anymore, you can finally kick her out of the company openly.]

[Arsen, for our future, you must not go soft on her.]

What does she mean by that? Before I could think it through, Arsen came out from the shower.

Usually, after a shower, he never wore formal clothes. He'd always walk around in a loosely wrapped towel.

But today, he was dressed impeccably. If not for the water still dripping from his neatly cut hair, no one would've known he had just bathed.

Seeing I still hadn't changed into the clothes he brought, his eyes showed even deeper impatience.

But then, as if something came to mind, his expression suddenly softened. He walked into the kitchen and brought me a glass of water.

He said gently, "Celine, if you don't like the outfit, then don't wear it. I won't force you. You don't look well. I'm worried about you. Have some warm water, it'll help."

I didn't know why, but I had a terrible feeling in my gut. His gaze gave me chills. So I instinctively shook my head and refused.

Unexpectedly, Arsen's face darkened and he came over, gripping my jaw and forcing the water down my throat.

My face went pale instantly. The fear and dread in my chest suffocated me.

"Arsen, what are you doing?" I struggled to spit it out, but he clamped my mouth shut with all his strength.

Seeing the fear in my eyes, Arsen's face flashed with a moment of hesitation.

But he still didn't let go. He whispered by my ear, coaxing, "Celine, today will be over soon. Once it's done, we'll go get our marriage certificate tomorrow."

What? What does he mean by that?

I stared at him helplessly, wide-eyed, but couldn't break free from his grip.

And then, I suddenly felt my body burning uncontrollably. My sanity began to crack, piece by piece.

Noticing the change in my expression, Arsen finally loosened his hand.

As he stepped back, my weakened legs lost all strength and I collapsed onto the floor.

I clenched my teeth, a strange flush rising on my cheeks and whispered hoarsely, "What did you make me drink?"

Before he could answer, the doorbell suddenly rang.

Arsen glanced at me, then strode over to open the door.

The moment it opened, Amelia burst in excitedly, holding a camera rig. Behind her were several tall men wearing masks.

Even with their faces hidden, I recognized them immediately, they were Arsen's closest friends.

I didn't know what they were planning to do, but my heart panicked as I tried desperately to stay calm, biting my lip and inching backward.

Amelia noticed and sneered, "Celine, stop hiding. Everyone here's already seen everything. No matter how you hide, it's useless."

Arsen stood next to her with his hands in his pockets, indifferent and said coldly, "She can't resist now. Just be gentle, we don't want to bother the neighbors."

His eyes held none of the tenderness he used to show me.

Only coldness and unfamiliarity remained. As if the man I once knew never existed.
