老公和小三合谋要杀我骗保,而他的情妇居然是......
The car accident nearly claimed my life, yet, against all odds, I survived, as if by some divine miracle.
If I hadn't been lucky enough to pull through, I could have never known that my perfect, devoted husband was plotting to kill me for the insurance money!
And his accomplice? None other than his own sister.
My entire world shattered into pieces by these vile siblings.

"Darling, don't worry... How was I supposed to know she didn't die and even got rescued? But relax, I won't let her leave this hospital alive!"
After the accident, I had no idea how long I'd been unconscious. When I groggily woke up, my blurry vision caught sight of a tall figure in a white coat standing by the window, speaking in a hushed tone on the phone.
Even though my sight was hazy, I recognized him instantly.
It was my husband, Rocco Ford, the director of the pediatrics department.
I wiggled my fingers slightly, confirming that I was still alive.
Suppressing the relief of surviving, I was just about to speak when Rocco's impatient voice cut through the air. "I've told you, the money we spent on Zoey's insurance won't be wasted. Once she's dead, the payout will be ours-a massive payout far exceeding what we spent..."
What did he just say? No!
It felt like a thunderclap in my mind, leaving me utterly stunned.
I was the Zoey he was talking about. Who was he calling? And who was he calling "darling"?
This must be a nightmare! Desperate to escape this horrifying reality, I quickly shut my eyes again, pretending to remain in coma, and tried my best to calm myself down.
"How on earth could I feel any guilt towards her? We've ventured this far; there's simply no going back. You and I have been in each other's company for countless years. Zoey Anderson? She means nothing to me... Fine, fine. Just be a little more patient. Once she breathes her last, we'll sell the house. Coupled with the insurance settlement, we'll become millionaires. Undoubtedly, we'll lead a life of luxury for the rest of our days..." Rocco lowered his voice, but the hospital room was so quiet that every word he said pierced my ears with chilling clarity.
In those few minutes, I summoned every ounce of strength I had to stay composed. I could only keep my eyes shut and feign unconsciousness.
But I could feel the cold malice creeping over me, as if the room had been plunged into ice.
Rocco's words coiled around me like a venomous snake, suffocating me.
Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
Yelena discovered that she wasn't her parents' biological child. After seeing through their ploy to trade her as a pawn in a business deal, she was sent away to her barren birthplace. There, she stumbled upon her true origins-a lineage of historic opulence. Her real family showered her with love and adoration. In the face of her so-called sister's envy, Yelena conquered every adversity and took her revenge, all while showcasing her talents. She soon caught the attention of the city's most eligible bachelor. He cornered Yelena and pinned her against the wall. "It's time to reveal your true identity, darling."
She was a world-renowned divine doctor, the CEO of a publicly traded company, the most formidable female mercenary, and a top-tier tech genius. Marissa, a titan with a plethora of secret identities, had hidden her true stature to marry a seemingly impoverished young man. However, on the eve of their wedding, her fiance, who was actually the lost heir to a wealthy dynasty, called off the engagement and subjected her to degradation and mockery. Upon the revelation of her concealed identities, her ex-fiance was left stunned and desperately pleaded for her forgiveness. Standing protectively before Marissa, an incredibly influential and fearsome magnate declared, "This is my wife. Who would dare try to claim her?"
Rejected by her mate, who had been her long-time crush, Jasmine felt utterly humiliated. Seeking solace, she headed to a party to drown her sorrows. But things took a turn for the worse when her friends issued a cruel dare: kiss a stranger or beg her mate for forgiveness. With no other choice, Jasmine approached a stranger and kissed him, thinking that would be the end of it. However, the stranger unexpectedly wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered in her ear, "You're mine!" He growled, his words sending shivers down her spine. And then, he offered her a solution that would change everything...
"Stella once savored Marc's devotion, yet his covert cruelty cut deep. She torched their wedding portrait at his feet while he sent flirty messages to his mistress. With her chest tight and eyes blazing, Stella delivered a sharp slap. Then she deleted her identity, signed onto a classified research mission, vanished without a trace, and left him a hidden bombshell. On launch day she vanished; that same dawn Marc's empire crumbled. All he unearthed was her death certificate, and he shattered. When they met again, a gala spotlighted Stella beside a tycoon. Marc begged. With a smirk, she said, ""Out of your league, darling."
