I ran toward them, my legs frantic, with Waimea’s arrogant laughter echoing behind
- me.
“Carola, don’t think your father’s in charge of the mafia makes him untouchable. Everything he owns will soon belong to my brother!”
I watched as body parts exploded in the sky, and Shervin stood there with a smug, victorious expression. Suddenly, my legs. gave way, and I collapsed to the ground.
I never expected he’d plant a timed bomb where my father had been standing.
When my father had made up his mind to confront him, Shervin had already planned

how to kill him!
This wedding–it had been a meticulously crafted funeral for my father!
It was too late when I realized the truth. If it weren’t for me seeking vengeance for my own sake, my father wouldn’t have died. It was all my fault!
“Dad…”
I lowered my head, crying uncontrollably. The wind howled in my ears, carrying Waimea’s laughter, stirring up a wave of intense hatred in my heart.
Even though my father was gone, I would never let these villains take everything he had!
Clenching my teeth, I pushed myself up

from the ground and strode toward Shervin, glaring at him in fury.
“You think you’ve won? Don’t dream it! You’ve openly murdered the mafia leader. Everyone saw it. They won’t let a person like you rise to the top!”
“Is that so?”
Shervin sneered at me, pulling a gun from his. waist and pointing it straight at my forehead.
“Anyone who defies me, step forward and I’ll kill them. One by one, until no one dares to speak up.”
His words were directed at me, but they felt like a threat to everyone around us.
Everyone had still been reeling from the shock of my father’s explosive death, but

at the sound of Shervin’s voice, their faces turned ashen.
It was clear–they had all realized that everything today was under Shervin’s control. Even if they rebelled, it would be useless.
As they lowered their heads and retreated, Shervin laughed with wicked delight.
“So, Miss Ramsey, what do you have to say now? Should I kindly send you to hell to join your father?”
Honestly, I wasn’t afraid of dying. After all, if it weren’t for my father, I would have already died three months ago.
I just couldn’t accept it. I couldn’t accept that I hadn’t avenged my father yet, and now I
had to watch someone like him take

Waimea stormed over and yanked him away.
“Hart, what’s this about? Today is our wedding! Are you trying to anger me on purpose?”
Hart shot me a glance, his voice steady as he explained to her.
“Waimea, listen to me. She’s already had the child. We need to get it from her!”
So that’s it…
Ha, I knew someone like Hart would never have a sudden change of heart.
He just wanted to take the child from me. That would never happen!

His bodyguards rushed out without hesitation.
But just a few steps away, another gunshot rang out.
“Ah!”
It was Waimea’s scream!
By the time everyone reacted, the hand she’d tried to strike me with had been shot, blood pouring from the wound.
