---- become a constant shadow, always trailing after Samuel. She tagged along to crime scenes, clinging to her position as the team's forensic intern. That was a job Samuel had pulled strings to get her. Meanwhile, I, his wife, felt like an afterthought. But I was a police officer, and my duty came first. No matter how much I despised Jasmine, I would not let her die. Even if it meant sacrificing myself. That was why I secretly slipped her a knife to defend herself. But instead, she used it to stab me in the back. And just before plunging that blade into me, she screamed for all to hear, "This woman is Emilia Crux! She's an undercover cop!" The whole scene was a nightmare. Even the drug lord could not have dreamed of such a gift landing in his lap. I felt like I had been plunged into a sea of ice water. "Why?" I gasped, my voice weak. "Because you disgust me." Jasmine sneered. "While Sam and I were on a break, you seduced him and ---- tricked him into marrying you. You're the most shameless person in the world, Emilia." "Do you even realize what you're saying?" I asked in disbelief. We were surrounded by dangerous criminals, drug dealers ready to kill. Yet here she was, betraying me over a man. Jasmine said nothing more. She turned to the drug lord, her expression twisted with malice. "I'll buy you time to escape. Just make sure Emilia doesn't make it out alive."
