Chapter 1 I Will Revenge, Dead or Alive
Alyssa Graham pushed open the door and saw Ryan Young, her boyfriend, having sex with another woman in bed.
That woman's slender arms were wrapped around the man's neck, and her bright red lip prints were all over the latter's naked body. Alyssa immediately knew what was going on without asking.
Alyssa tried hard not to let the tears fall, and the look in her eyes was stubborn. "Ryan, what does this suppose to mean?"
"What a fool! Why even bother asking? Didn't you see it all?" Ryan held the enchanting woman tightly in his arms and gently stroked her hair. "I'm no longer interested in you, Alyssa."
"You are lying. You've just said you loved me yesterday!"
"Nah, that's a lie. Otherwise, how could you have transferred all the money of the Graham Family to my account? Now that I have obtained the Graham Family's wealth, why should I put up with you for any longer? You have such a bad temper and do nothing all day long. Also, you treat me like a servant. Who do you think you are? You were the young lady of the Graham Family. But now, all those that used to be yours are mine. I can easily get any woman I fancy."
While listening to Ryan, who had always been loyal on the surface, Alyssa became utterly stunned.
They met and fell in love in college. However, it turned out that the three-year relationship was nothing but a beautiful yet hurtful lie. Those details that happened in the past three years, such as Ryan waiting in line to buy food for her, holding an umbrella for her in the rain, waiting for her overnight under her dormitory building after their quarrel, came to Alyssa's mind one after another.
After they graduated from college, Alyssa's father wanted to marry her into the Hunter Family. When the Hunter Family's wedding convoy came to pick her up, she jumped out of the hotel dressing room. She eventually prevented the marriage by a suicidal attempt. From then on, the entire Graham Family grew sick of and even hated Alyssa. Besides, because she fell from a high building, Alyssa's kidney was seriously damaged and almost killed her.
Suddenly, a sharp female voice interrupted Alyssa's recollection. "Miss Graham, haven't you figured it out yet? You're just a tool for Ryan to get your family's money. Now that he has made it, you're no longer useful. Stop thinking so highly of yourself. Yes, you used to have the Graham Family standing behind you as you are the family's daughter. Now, even the residence of the Grahams is on fire. Do you still think you are a young lady better than others? Nah, you're just a bitch!"
"Don't talk nonsense."
Alyssa rushed over to the other woman, trying to scratch her face. Instead, however, Ryan slapped Alyssa fiercely.
She turned around and happened to see the video playing on Ryan's phone. In the video, the Graham Family's villa was drowning in the sea of fire. And piercing screams could be heard at the same time.
Alyssa stared at the screen and could not believe what she saw.
Everything was fine when she went back the day before asking for money to transfer to Ryan.
Soon, Alyssa came to her senses and grabbed Ryan by the collar. "How could you do this?"
Ryan pushed her away in disgust, saying, "It's all your fault, you stupid woman. Do you know that I almost got killed by you yesterday? You blatantly asked the Graham Family for money, and others certainly saw my purpose at a glance. Last night, if I hadn't followed you, I would have been arrested as a swindler. If you hadn't transferred the money to me, I really thought that you and the Graham Family were going to partner with each other to collect evidence and send me to prison."
"Why? Why are you doing this to me?"
"I have been a cuckold willingly for years. Who doesn't know what you and that bastard from the Hunter family did two years ago? Do you think I am a fool who is that clueless? You have long been his woman!"
"I'm not, Ryan! I was sent there by my father for only two hours on that day. You know I couldn't do anything."
"Nonsense! My experience tells me that many things can happen even in half an hour. I clearly remember that after you jumped off that building, a kind of drug which had the function to seduce men was detected in your blood." Then, Ryan revealed a ferocious expression, took out a document, and threw it at Alyssa. "Now sign it!"
Alyssa looked down and saw that the document was about the transfer statement of her shares in the Graham Group, shaking her head. "I would rather die than sign this."
"You want to die that much? That's a piece of cake. But before you die, you must sign it." Ryan stopped trying to advise but grabbed the woman's hand and printed her fingerprint on to file. "Bitch, it's not up to you." Then he kicked the woman to vent his anger.
At this moment, in Alyssa's heart, humiliation was severer than pain. She shouted hysterically, "Ryan, I will take revenge."
Ryan wagged his head with a smug smile, saying, "Perhaps in your next life! Now the Graham group is all mine. Oh right, for your information, it wasn't I who saved you ten years ago. It was Leon Hunter. And it was not I who gave you that piece of white jade amulet either. It was also him. When you said it was from me in college, I didn't deny it. Your family had money, and I needed it. Look at now, I finally put all Graham Family's wealth deep into my pockets."
"Why must you cheat me like this, you son of a bitch! I will revenge, alive or dead!"
Alyssa simply could not believe what was happening before her eyes.
She always thought it was Ryan who was destined for her. How could it be Leon? How could she make such a huge mistake?
Suddenly, Alyssa recalled that when Leon looked at her in the hotel room three years ago, there was apparent disappointment in his eyes.
Back then, she did not understand anything. But at this moment, she figured it out.
What disappointed Leon was that while he recognized Alyssa, the woman was blinded by her ignorance and mistook one for another.
In grief and indignation, Alyssa looked out of the window with bloodshot eyes.
All of a sudden, she rushed towards the window and jumped out of it impulsively like crazy...
