Mark(Ex fiancée)
You only have to sign this one paper!
Mark(Ex fiancée)
If not tell me the password for the safe!

Behind him Martina's best friend stand there watching with cold eyes
Martina (Fl)
Briana *Her voice shaking*
Martina (Fl)
I... I trusted you! I Even treated you well...
Briana(FL ex bestfriend)
Why are you blaming me?
Briana(FL ex bestfriend)
It's your fault that you trusted me.
Layla(Ex sister-in-law)
*She stepped in with a case full of money*
-She is Mark's true love
She is adopted for Mark to marry
Layla(Ex sister-in-law)
Thank you for cooperating with us, here's your reward
Briana(FL ex bestfriend)
*She took it and left*
Martina (Fl)
(I can't believe I trusted the wrong people...)
Martina (Fl)
(William was right... I should've trusted him)
Mark(Ex fiancée)
Sign it! *He crouched down, shoving the pen to her hand*
Martina (Fl)
No! Never! Not over my dead body!
Martina (Fl)
I will never let you have it!
*A Slap echoed in the dark warehouse*
Martina (Fl)
*Blood trickled down her lips*
Mark(Ex fiancée)
Fine! Don't, but I will not give you an easy death!
After hours of torture when she was beaten to death, only then when they fled and filed for reports about her missing
The news about Martina's murder shook the city, especially William
Meanwhile Martina's spirit didn't leave instead with unsatisfied need with revenge made her stay
Ch. 2
When Mark and Layla were celebrating for unknown reasons
It gave it away, William knew it was them.
William (ML)
How dare they!
Ryan (Ml secretary)
*Rushes in*
Ryan (Ml secretary)
What do you want me to do?
William (ML)
Dug up everything about what happened last night!
William (ML)
If you miss a single detail... ❄️
Ryan (Ml secretary)
Uh yes sir! *He rushed out*
Ryan (Ml secretary)
Boss, Briana was with Martina last night and drugged her with a paralytic drug..
William (ML)
So…❄️*His tone cold*
William (ML)
She was in this too, find her and make her life miserable! 💢❄️ *He shouted*
Ryan (Ml secretary)
*He flinched* Yes sir!
At the private funeral home
Mark and Layla were already there with those fake crocodile tears
Martina’s spirit was watching the absolute farce playing out in front of her corpse.
Mark(Ex fiancée)
"Why her?" *He groaned his voice cracking with rehearsed agony.
Mark(Ex fiancée)
"She had everything ahead of her. The company, our future... why would anyone do this to my Martina?"
Beside him, Layla his supposedly sweet, innocent adopted sister was rubbing his back, her eyes downcast, squeezing out a few delicate, tearless whimpers.
Martina (Fl)
Martina wanted to scream. She wanted to rip through the veil of death and throttle them both.
My Martina. The sheer audacity of it.
Mark had spent three years chasing her, playing the part of the devoted, humble suitor who didn't care about her status as a billionaire tech heiress and CEO.
He had made her feel safe enough to let her guard down.
And all the while, he had been sleeping with Layla in the penthouse Martina paid for, whispering about how arrogant and cold Martina was, how she "didn't deserve" a man like him just because she expected him to have some goddamn competence
He thought he was worthy? He has forgotten that he was the one who chased her
Her best friend, Briana, she had known since boarding school, the girl she had given executive positions and black credit cards
had been the one to slip the paralytic into her wine. She giggled as she watched Martina collapsed onto her own Persian rug, unable to move or scream.
Then Layla showed up with a van, dragging her to an abandoned warehouse like a piece of unwanted furniture.
And Mark? Mark had been the one holding the blade, the mastermind. He had looked down at her with so much pathetic, fragile-masculine hatred.
“You always thought you were better than me,” he had hissed before beating her up and cutting her windpipe. “Let’s see what your stock options are worth now.”
The memory made her spirit burn with a useless, agonizing rage. They were going to get away with it. They were going to inherit her empire, marry each other, and live happily ever after on her blood money.
Suddenly, the heavy oak doors of the viewing room clicked shut. The sound was sharp, like a gunshot in the quiet room.
Ch. 3
Suddenly, the heavy oak doors of the viewing room clicked shut. The sound was sharp, like a gunshot in the quiet room.
Mark stopped sobbing, wiping his eyes as he turned around.
Mark(Ex fiancée)
"Who's that? We asked for privacy—"
The words died in his throat.
William Sterling stood by the entrance. But he didn't look like the flawless, terrifyingly powerful billionaire tycoon the world knew him to be. He looked like a man who had already died and forgot to stop walking.
His eyes were bloodshot, surrounded by dark, hollow shadows. His signature dark hair was a messy, unwashed ruin, and his expensive tailored suit was rumpled.
He didn't look at Mark, and he didn't look at Layla. His gaze fixed entirely on the casket, and a low, terrible sound escaped his throat—a choked, broken sob that sounded entirely inhuman.
Still handsomer than mark even like that
Martina (Fl)
*Martina's ghost froze* William?
They had been rivals since childhood. They had fought over grades, over business contracts, over everything. He had always been so mean to her, always pushing her buttons, always acting like he couldn't stand the sight of her. When she had announced her engagement to Mark, William had stared at her with a look so cold it could have frozen a river, turned on his heel, and never spoken to her again.
Back then when William warned her, she thought that he was lying to her
She had thought he hated her.
But watching him now, stumbling toward her casket like a man walking to his own execution, she realized she had been entirely, catastrophically blind.
Mark(Ex fiancée)
"William" his voice tightening as he tried to regain his composure.
Mark(Ex fiancée)
I know you and Martina had your differences in business, but... thank you for coming to pay your respects.
William (ML)
*He finally looked at him*
William finally looked at him. It wasn't a glance, it was the look of a predator staring at meat. Because how dare you murder his one and only
William (ML)
Briana is still alive...*He said his voice was completely dead*
William (ML)
I thought you'd want to know...
Mark(Ex fiancée)
*He Blinked, confused* what? What are you talking about?
William (ML)
She's alive *He repeated, taking a step forward*
William (ML)
But she won't be doing much of anything anymore. I had her tendons severed
William (ML)
And I bought the private medical facility they're currently lying in.
William (ML)
She'll be kept awake, under heavy surveillance
William (ML)
For the next fifty years
William (ML)
She'll never see the sun, never hold a pen, she will live exactly as she left her, Incapable of moving.
Layla(Ex sister-in-law)
*She let out a sharp, terrified gasp, Backing up against the altar*
Layla(Ex sister-in-law)
You... You're insane! Mark, call the police!
Mark(Ex fiancée)
*He reached into his pocket for his phone*
