His Personal Fucktoy? This Doll Just Snatched His Strings... And His World Is Unraveling novel Chapter 54

After moving out of James’s place, she had returned to her old ways, becoming a wealthy man’s mistress.

Unfortunately for her, this rich man was also married, and his wife was even more ruthless. She brought a group of people who beat Sophia so badly that all her front teeth

were knocked out and her face was slashed.

Without her beauty, she was quickly discarded by the wealthy man, and no one else wanted to keep her.

Accustomed to being dependent, she couldn’t handle the hardship of working. With no options left, she went back to James, but he not only refused to take her in–he beat her

severely.

I felt nothing when I heard this news. My heart remained unmoved, as I had more

important matters to focus on–preparing for my wedding.

A month passed quickly, and soon we were celebrating our long–awaited ceremony.

This ceremony was even more grand than the previous attempt. As the makeup artist worked on me, I kept looking at our new wedding photos.

In the pictures, Noah stood close to me, his body leaning toward mine–the posture of

someone in love.

In contrast, the photos James and I had taken showed a five–finger gap between us–the distance of someone who didn’t love me.

The signs had been there all along; I just refused to believe them and ended up getting hurt.

Thankfully, fate was kind enough to give me a second chance.

On our wedding day, James came too.

He stood in the corner, watching me in my wedding dress, silently crying.

Then he left as quietly as he had come.

A few days after the wedding, I heard news of James’s imprisonment. It turned out that Sophia, who had always been a bully to the weak but a coward to the strong, didn’t dare make trouble with wealthy people, but had no qualms about causing problems for James.

She went to the police and blamed all the cuts on her face on James.

Under the law, James was sentenced to two years in prison.

After he was locked up, Sophia, accustomed to making money on her back, turned to selling

herself cheaply. Within a year, she had saved enough of this easily–earned money to visit a

cosmetic surgery clinic.

Unfortunately, it was an illegal operation. The procedure failed, and Sophia died from a

bacterial infection.

Two years later, the first thing James did upon his release was to come see me.

When he saw me, he was stunned.

Compared to two years before, I looked so much better.

I didn’t look like a worn–down married woman, but rather like someone who had just

reached adulthood–rosy–cheeked, with smiling eyes.

The small scars on my hands were gone too.

During those two years of marriage, Noah never let me cook a single meal. Though we could have hired help, he preferred to cook for me himself.

Loving someone is like tending to a flower.

Noah and I had nurtured each other beautifully.

Chapter 10

James watched me from a distance, not daring to approach.

During his two years in prison, he had dreamed of a family gathering three years earlier, where I had suddenly announced our relationship, becoming his official wife.

But this had cost him Sophia’s dependence.

Sophia had gone abroad again.

He blamed everything on me.

During an international trip, he had encountered Sophia again, and their rekindled passion burned hotter than our new love. He began meeting Sophia regularly, deliberately forgetting my existence.

When he returned home, he discovered I had died in the hospital, along with our unborn

child.

He rushed to find me, only to learn my body had already been cremated.

My mother had called him a monster, and forbidden him from attending my memorial.

James felt his heart being torn apart, as if something had vanished with my death.

The dream had been so vivid that James had woken up crying.

So after his release, he came looking for me, wanting to apologize.

In the end, he couldn’t say it, because he realized:

I didn’t need his hollow apology. What I needed was for him to stay out of my life.
