A
Betrayed by My Fiancé: A Tale of Revenge and Regret
I was drugged at a business party.
The next day, explicit videos of me spread like wildfire through our social circle. The whispers and stares around me were almost unbearable.
My fiancé, Zack, held me gently, “Don’t worry, Aria. I’ll take care of those videos. I’ve even found the best hypnotherapist to help you forget all
this.”
As the hypnosis device was placed on my temples and his low voice guided me into darkness, I thought this was my salvation.
But before I completely lost consciousness, I heard the hypnotherapist’s playful laugh:

“Bro, just because she broke your stepmom’s bracelet at the engagement party, you let those thugs have their
insane?”
My heart sank. That bracelet was broken because Vanessa deliberately bumped into me!
Then she played the victim, accusing me of looking down on her as a stepmother.
“She intentionally humiliated Vanessa at the party,” Zack’s voice was ice–cold.
Iway with her? Are
TWEAR You fucking
“Vanessa cried all night, saying even her future daughter–in–law looks down on her. I had to teach her a lesson to ease my anger.”
So, all this torment I’ve endured was just because he thought I upset Vanessa?
Leo chuckled lewdly, “Since she’s already been played with and now I’m hypnotizing her, why don’t I… have some fun too?”
My hair stood on end. In my heart, there was still a pathetically weak hope that Zack would retain some last shred of conscience.
However, he casually uttered two words, as if throwing away trash:
“Whatever.”
“Really? She is your fiancée after all.”
Zack kicked the therapy bed carelessly, “Just rub against her outside, don’t go in. Get your kicks and be done with it.”
He was meticulously cleaning a scalpel, suddenly pressing the blade against my neck The coldness made me shiver. “That thug only touched her and filmed it. I didn’t let her actually get violated.”
“You’re such a good guy!” Leo sneered, “You had us film it and send it to you, then called us to delete it. Who knows which idiot leaked it online? How could it possibly be completely erased?”
Zack chuckled, “I told you to delete the video just to put on an act in front of her.”
He cut open the ribbon on my collar with the scalpel, instantly exposing me.
“When the jade bracelet broke, she should have understood that upsetting Vanessa was a sin. So I continued spreading the video online, to let her taste what it’s like to be gossiped about.”
Three days ago, he had held my trembling body and sworn:
I’ve taken care of that thug and the videos online. Arla, I will never let another man see your body.”
So it was all an act!
ሮ
But at the engagement party, I really didn’t mean to embarrass Vanessa, On the contrary, she suddenly let go of my hand, causing the Jade to shatter into pieces on the floor.

“Aria, it’s okay if you look down on me, but you shouldn’t have broken Auntie’s gift…”
Her tearful expression caused an uproar among the guests.
Zack gently defused the situation for me, “It’s fine, we can just buy a new one.”
“Hurry up.” The click of Zack’s lighter and the camera shutter sound went off simultaneously, “I want to show Vanessa the live recording later.”
Leo fumbled with his belt, panting as he gripped my waist,
“I warned you to please Vanessa. Zack can’t stand to see her frown.”
Yes, at the dinner before Zack took me to meet his family, a drunk Leo had cornered me in the club hallway,
“You’re just a pretty face. Otherwise, a commoner like you would never be able to marry Zack, the prince of this city.”
He looked me up and down lewdly, “But compared to his stepmom, your body is far inferior.”
“Zack protects his stepmom like the apple of his eye. If Vanessa was ten years younger, you wouldn’t stand a chance.”
How did I respond then?
I said nonchalantly that Zack could distinguish between family love and romantic love, just like he could distinguish between champagne and
red wine.
In the midst of the pain from Leo’s disgusting touch, I vaguely recalled when we first started dating,
Zack had used his suit jacket to cover my shoulder after a drunk man touched it.
His eyes were red then, his voice shaking: “If anyone dares to touch you again, I’ll cut off their hands.”
Through my lashes, I saw Zack leaning against the window smoking a cigar.
Through the smoke, he smiled slightly as he dialed a number, “Vanessa, I’ll show you something good later to cheer you up.”
The red recording light blinked on and off, just like the fireworks he set off for me on the night he proposed.
That night he knelt on one knee and solemnly vowed: “I will always be your safe harbor. I’ll never let you suffer even the slightest grievance.”
Tears gathered in my eyes. Now, the safe harbor had turned into a slaughterhouse.
