The rumors online kept getting worse, and he
didn’t come home anymore.
Over the Lunar New Year, I didn’t go back to
visit my family because of the rumors. But my
mom called me.
She said, “Marriage isn’t the only thing
women should live for. A failed marriage
should push you to become a better person.
To have a better life. You shouldn’t close
yourself off to the world.”

After thinking about it, I agreed with her.
On Valentine’s Day, I asked Ethan to come
back to me. I finally asked him the question
that I had been holding onto for so long.
“Ethan, after everything, do you regret it?”
“Yes, I regret it. I regret meeting you, and I
regret being with you.”
His answer broke all my expectations.
When the psycho burned us alive, I wasn’t
scared. I was relieved.
Now, we’ve been reborn, and we’ve made our
decisions. Why does he have to be so mean
to me now?

I smirked. “Ethan, if Lily heard that you
wanted to pay for a mistress, what would she
do?”
“Don’t worry, I don’t mind.”
Lily walked over to Ethan’s side. She looked
at the room key with anger, and said, “Bianca,
I love Ethan. I can take anything. It’s just a
mistress. As long as you don’t get any ideas,
I’ll be fine with you being with Ethan.”
I looked at them both, with their shameless
faces. I shook my head. “Sorry, I can provide
for myself. I don’t need anyone to support
- me. Especially scum. You’re not worthy of
me.”
We were talking loudly enough that everyone

due could bear us

They started yelling. “Bianca, don’t be stupid.
So many women would like to have Ethan as
their man.”
“Yeah, you get to sleep around and have a
good life. Isn’t that why you’re here? So you
can get some sponsors to sleep with? Stop
pretending!”
“Maybe she’s not getting paid enough.”
Lily agreed. “Oh, right! It’s my fault. Ethan,
you should have reminded me.”
She took out some money from her wallet
and said, “Bianca, this is a Valentine’s Day
gift. I’ll pay you the market rate if you’re up to
par. I won’t cheat you out of money. You’re
working hard, right?”
Г
I didn’t understand what they were trying to
do by embarrassing me. Weren’t we here for
an audition?
“You don’t have to worry about me. I’m
already married.”
Ethan looked surprised, and then scoffed.
“Bianca, you don’t have to lie to me. If you
were married, why would you be here?
“And, you used to love me so much. You
always said you would never marry anyone
else.
“I’m giving you an offer. You’ll be allowed to
be by my side as long as you’re obedient.”
Everyone started whispering.

Lily’s eyes were full of anger and hatred. She
was still trying to be polite. “I heard that the
director and his kids would be here to watch
the auditions, and so would his wife. Bianca,
if they see you doing all of this, no one will
want you. You can just stop now. I’m trying to
help you.”
Everyone became excited.
The director of Phoenix Studios was a
billionaire, and there were stories of him
already having five–year–old twins. Because
she was lowkey, no one had ever gotten a
picture of her. All that anyone knew was that
she was a famous screenwriter. She wrote
the show, ‘Daylight‘.
