He Took My Life, I’ll Take His Empire

Chapter 2

I was trapped under Cain's control for ten whole years.

Back in high school, the first time I confessed my feelings to someone, Cain beat him so badly that he ended up in the hospital.

In college, a guy from the department next door started chasing after me. Not long later, he dropped out of school.

After graduation, I only got Cain's approval to work at a company where most employees were women. Yet Cain secretly switched my medicine, got me pregnant, and forced me to quit my job.

For those ten years, I had no friends. I didn't dare love anyone. My reputation was destroyed.

Everyone thought I was the desperate gold digger who clung to Cain. No one ever wondered if even someone as powerless as an ant had the right to refuse.

I called the police. I posted everything online. However, every single time, the evidence disappeared without a trace.

The one time I managed to escape, it cost me everything. My father got into a car accident and was rushed to the ICU. My mother was falsely accused of committing a crime at work and placed under investigation. My younger sister vanished after school and was missing for three whole days.

Like a stray with nowhere left to run, I went back to Cain. I knelt in front of him and swallowed every last piece of my pride.

Cain slowly unbuttoned his shirt. He looked down at me from above, then leaned over and lightly patted my face.

"I told you long ago to listen to me. Why did you still refuse to behave?"

Later, Cain married another woman and had children. Yet his control over me only became stronger.

Until one day, I finally found my chance. I ran toward the rooftop like a madwoman. Under Cain's shocked gaze, I jumped.

At last, I was free.

The only thing I regretted before my death was never getting to see Cain, that evil man, receive the punishment he deserved.
