Unveiling My Husband's Conspiracy

"Seven days later, I will lead you to the stage in front of all the officials, lecturers and students in the university. I'm so excited just thinking about it ...."

I was angry. "Don't even think about it!"

Sarah threatened. "You probably don't want your parents to lose their jobs or your sister to be expelled from her school."

I grabbed the clothes representing humiliation, then walked out of Sarah's dormitory in a daze and came to the rooftop on the twelfth floor.

It was late at night and the wind was very strong.

I leaned against the railing and shed tears silently. The depression that I had overcome a year ago came back to me again.

Under the countless negative emotions, a terrible idea came into my mind. If I jump down, will I still suffer?

But the sound of the phone ringing interrupted my thoughts. It was my father calling.

"Zendaya, I believe you will never do that."

"Your mom and I have discussed it. Even if we have to sell our house and land, we will sue the people who spread rumors about you ...."

I wiped away my tears and tried to make my voice sound calm. " Dad, I'm fine."

"I ... I had a little bit misunderstanding with someone at campus and I have explained it clearly."

"From now on, no one will harass our family anymore."

After hanging up the phone, I gripped the clothes that represented humiliation and returned to the dormitory silently.

For the sake of my family, no matter how much injustice I suffer, I had to live well!

Seven days later.

In the morning, the graduation ceremony was held as scheduled.

It was said that Killian spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to make the ceremony unprecedentedly luxurious.

He was really willing to spend money on Sarah ....

In the auditorium, the graduates were dressed in their best clothes, eating, drinking, chatting and laughing in groups of three or five and the atmosphere was extremely joyful.

I sat on a chair in the corner, staring blankly at the group of people.

I did not know whether it was intentionally or unintentionally, Sarah, who dressed up in formal attire, chose to sit right in front of me.

The stage had been set up and under countless spotlights, Killian, dressed in a gorgeous suit, stepped onto the stage gracefully.

Today, he had swept away his former decadence and haggardness and appeared in front of me with the demeanor of a noble man, dazzling and brilliant.

Sarah cupped her chin with both hands and her eyes sparkling with love. "Killian is still so elegant, worthy of being my husband."

"Oh my god, I can't imagine him kneeling down on one knee and proposing to me later."

In the center of the stage, Killian picked up the microphone and said affectionately, "Today, in front of all the officials, lecturers and students of the university, I want to propose to the most important woman in my life."

"In my most desperate and helpless moments, she appeared in my life like a beam of light."

"It's because of her that I have the courage to live."

"With her, I realize that life is a meaningful thing ...."

Her cheeks blushed that she covered her face and said shyly, "Killian, really, saying so many complimenting words in front of everyone, it's really embarrassing."

A few of the wealthy girls that Sarah was acquainted with came to celebrate with their wine glasses.

They exaggeratedly praised Sarah as the most beautiful girl in the university and Killian as the most handsome boy in the university, saying they were a perfect match with both talent and beauty.

Both of them were from the top wealthy families in the city and together, they were a perfect match ....

Someone said sarcastically, "Hey Sarah, why did you call this bitch here?"

"Oh, her family is so poor, she probably just came here to make a living."

"She's so shameless to even attend such an occasion ...."

Killian brought his microphone closer to his mouth, strode off the stage and said affectionately, "Please, my love, come with me to the stage."

Sarah stood up excitedly and did not forget to remind me. "Hurry up and change your clothes!"

"I'll have to hold your hand when we go on stage later."

With tears in my eyes, I slowly unfolded the shameful clothes.

Killian walked over to me and said with his eyes were full of affectionate, "Darling, would you like to accompany me on stage?"

The grand engagement ceremony was both luxurious and romantic.

The people in the auditorium shouted at the same time.

"Say yes!"

"Say yes!"

Sarah was so excited that she wanted to grab her boyfriend's outstretched hand and said eagerly, "I do!"

However ....

A crisp slap landed on Sarah's left cheek. She fell into a chair with disheveled hair, blood flowing from her nostrils and mouth.

Killian said coldly, "Bitch, do you deserve it?"

Amid the astonished gazes of the crowd, he reached out to me again and said, "Zendaya, I love you and that has never changed."

"Would you like to give me a chance to explain myself?"
