The last thing I saw before I passed out was a flicker of something on Zane’s fate.
Regret?
Just my Imagination.
I woke up in the hospital.
Gastric bleeding
Zane stood by my bed, looking down at me, his gaze empty,
“Chloe, don’t think for a second that this makes me care about you,” he said coldly,
“You’re just a dog in the Parker family. Even your life belongs to me.”
“Ill use it however I see fit”
I laughed.

Then, in one sharp motion, I ripped out my IV.

Zane grabbed my wrist, his grip tight, his jaw clenched.
A vein throbbed in his forehead as he let out a dark, bitter laugh.

Her condition had worsened. She needed surgery temirdively.
Dad was out of town, ignoring my calls.
My stepmother and Lily just watched, indifferent,
I had no choice.
I swallowed my pride and went to Zane,
I thought he’d say yes
It was nothing to him–less than what he spent my one of Lily’s handbags.
And I was still, technically, his wife.
But I was wrong
“Chloe, what game are you playing now?”
Line’s voice was ice.
Lily clung to his arm, eyes full of mock concern.
“Oh, come on, sis, stop pretending. Everyone knows you love playing the victi
She turned to Zane, porting,
“She’s just doing this for attention.”
Zane stared at me like I was dirt beneath his shoe.
Trying to get me to chase you? Pathetic.”
“Your sister’s life means nothing to me.
Then, his lips curled into a smirk
“Chloe, remember how you begged me to marry you?”
“Do it again.”
“Get on your knees, and maybe I’ll consider it.”
Something inside me shattered.
But for my sister, I did it.

Rain poured down, just like the night I begged him to marry me.
I was soaked, shaking, my voice hoarse from pleading

“One night? That’s not nearly enough.”
Lily leaned over from the passenger seat, grinning
“Sis, you’re so pathetic. Groveling like a dog.”
“Zane. let’s go. She’s not worth our time.”
Zane didn’t even glance back.
The window went up.
The car disappeared into the rain.
As I watched the taillights fade, my heart turned to stone.
He was never going to help me.

Shoving down whatever food I could find, I forced myself into a hot shower.

then did I feel human again.
Pain crashed into me like a tidal wave.
In just a few days I had lost a child, nearly bled out, had my legs slashed by glass, suffered a stomach hemorrhage, and spent a night kneeling in the freezing rain.
Every breath felt like knives in my ribs.
But I had to keep going.
My sister was still waiting.
