    “Christian… You have to believe me when I say that I didn’t do it on purpose.” Victoria Coleman’s face


    was paler than a ghost as she kneeled down in an estate. Without the lights on, she could barely see


    the man’s expression but only the glimmer of light from the cigarette between his fingers until it faded


    away in the darkness.


    Feeling as if she was waiting for her death, thedy grew more and more anxious. While she kept her


    head down, she stared at her fingers in a trance and noticed the blood stains that had dried off on


    them, stunned by the fact that they had be the evidence to be used against her.


    Not knowing how long had passed, the man stood up and approached her in an intimidating manner.


    “Victoria, you should know that we all have to be responsible for our actions. Be’s legs may be fine


    for now, but she’ll never be able to dance again. What about you, though? You get to move around like


    a machine that is up and running, taking everything for granted. How is that fair?”novelxo fast

    The man spoke in a sinister voice, making her heart beat like a jackhammer. Meanwhile, Victoria


    caught a glimpse of the man’s hand reaching for the golf club in the illuminating moonlight. “I told you


    before—I’d marry you as long as you remain a good girl, but why? Why did you mess with Be?” As


    soon as the man finished his words, he swung the golf club and smashed her shin.


    “Ah!” As the man hit Victoria’s shin with all his strength, thedy was greatly overwhelmed by the pain.


    “Christian… I didn’t do it…” Due to the pain on her shin, she slid back a little, only to realize her injured


    leg was limiting her movements.


    In the meantime, Christian Thatcher threw the bent golf club aside as he red at Victoria, who was


    now breathing weakly. “This is the price you’re paying for what you did to Be’s leg. However, you


    should consider yourself lucky that you’re going to live, but even so, I want you to remember that this is


    not the end.”


    While Victoria curled up and shook like a leaf, her vision slowly became blurry. Before she lost her


    consciousness, she vaguely saw the man reaching for his phone. “Tell the Coleman Family about


    Victoria’s attempted murder. Ask them whether they want to keep her or the Coleman Group.”


    Two yearster, a skinnydy walked out of the penitentiary’s gate on the east side of Bloomsway. It


    was the town’s first day of snow, but she couldn’t walk fast due to the leg injury that seemed to bother


    her. As the snowkes kept falling from the sky, thedy ignored her scars and looked up, facing the


    sky while revealing her good looks.


    Since it was winter, there were only a number of buses that passed by that area. Therefore, she was


    forced to wait amidst the cold winter as she rubbed her shoulders with a frown on her face, and she


    gritted her teeth non-stop.


    At that moment, she recalled the spring she had been sent to prison, feeling surprised that it was


    already winter now that she was released. The next moment, she looked back at the penitentiary where


    she had spent two years living, standing at the bus stop while staring at the words written above the


    gate. ‘Treasure your second chance.’


    As she read those few words, Victoria couldn’t help but snigger andugh at herself. Do people like me


    really get a second chance after leaving the penitentiary? Thedy was caught up in her train of


    thought until she was interrupted by a bus that came her way amidst the snow. She then rubbed her leg


    to relieve the pain and got onto the bus.


    Having nothing more than an outdated cell phone and a few bucks with her, she inserted the coins into


    the farebox and went ahead to take a seat at the back. After all, the bus was the only ride that traveled


    from the penitentiary to the city. However, Victoria was the only passenger throughout the ride that


    night as she leaned on the window and kept her eyes on the scenery outside the bus, seeming as


    though she couldn’t have enough of it. I can’t believe the city has changed so much in two years.


    Suddenly, the vehicle came to an abrupt stop, creating an inertia that caused Victoria’s head to bump


    onto the window. Feeling the pain, she couldn’t help but wonder what was going on as she rubbed her


    head, but before she could find out what was going on, she felt a strong force pulling her away from her


    seat.
