Chapter 1

My boyfriend's childhood friend's work error cost the company $100 million.

Her first move was to fabricate evidence, trying to frame the new intern to take the fall for her.

I desperately held back my boyfriend, who was about to commit perjury for her.

"Don't go! A hundred million dollars is no small matter. The police will eventually trace it back to you, and then it won't just be your career, your entire life will be over!"

Under my pressure, my boyfriend told the truth about what happened.

For this, he earned the appreciation of the company executives and rose quickly through the ranks.

Meanwhile, his childhood friend was convicted of corporate misconduct and sentenced.

Unable to cope, she took her own life by cutting her wrists.

My boyfriend calmly, almost unnervingly so, handled her funeral arrangements and proposed to me as planned.

But on the one-year anniversary of her death, he took me to her grave.

He pulled out a dagger and started slicing into my body, one cut after another.

365 cuts, each one targeting the most sensitive nerves.

He looked at me, a bloody mess, and gave a sinister grin.

"If I had committed perjury for Chloe back then, she would still be alive. If you hadn't meddled, Chloe wouldn't have died! Die! Bitch! Go join Chloe in her grave!"

I died, consumed by hatred.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw my boyfriend, looking anxious and ready to commit perjury for Chloe. I smiled.

He didn't know that the new intern was the chairman's only daughter.

And the chairman? He was a notoriously doting father...
