Chapter 3 " Today , Jack said he's officially getting engaged to me ! " Evelynn announced proudly , as her group of friends grabbed my hair and began dragging me out of the cram school . [ ] Before leaving, she raised her voice and addressed the teachers : " Any damages here today ? Just send the bill to the Torres Group's finance department and say Jack's wife told you to . " [ ] At the mention of the Torres Group , the cram school owner's expression changed . With a sycophantic smile , he quickly assured her , " Oh , Mrs. Torres ! Don't worry , we won't report anything to the police . " [ ] Evelynn , brimming with satisfaction , continued to drag my nearly lifeless body out of the classroom . [ ] A Faced with the judgmental stares of passersby , Evelynn placed her hands on her hips and shouted , " What's it to you ? I'm teaching a mistress a lesson ! " [ One onlooker couldn't take it anymore and stepped forward to intervene . 0 " Miss , even if she really is a mistress , you can't beat her until her face is covered in blood and tear up all her clothes . " [ ] " Find something to cover her with . Exposing her like this - everyone has some dignity . " " And what you're doing is illegal . " [ Evelynn ignored the woman entirely , smirking coldly as she snapped back sarcastically : [ ] " Oh , look at you , rushing to defend this tramp . What's the matter ? Are you just like her , a mistress yourself ? " | " And don't forget , I'm rich . My husband is the chairman of the Torres Group . Even if I kill someone , I can afford to pay for it . " [ ] The bystander stared at Evelynn in disbelief , shocked that someone who appeared so gentle could speak with such venom . [ ] In the end , I was shoved into a car and driven to the hotel lobby where the engagement banquet was being held . Both families had invited many guests , with dozens of tables set up . The moment Evelynn dragged me in , all eyes turned toward me . [ ] " Evelynn , is this the mistress your friend mentioned ? " [ ] Evelynn's parents stood up , their gazes filled with hatred . Evelynn nodded confidently . [ ] " Yes , it's her . The one from the photo on my friend's Instagram last night . I wouldn't mistake her . " [ ] Hearing Evelynn's confirmation , her mother , Lucy , stormed toward me and yanked my hair , slapping me repeatedly . [ " You slut ! How dare you steal my daughter's man ? " } " I'll kill you today ! " [] The repeated blows left me too weak to even speak . I started to wonder if this was where I'd die . [ ] Chapter 3 " Kill her ! " " No one else is marrying into the Torres family but my daughter ! " [ Lucy rallied more of her relatives , who surrounded me once again . Finally , Lucy turned to Evelynn and said , " Bring me the carving knife . I'm going to ruin her face . " I " Let's see how she seduces anyone after this ! " | Evelynn handed the knife to Lucy . Everyone watched as Lucy loomed over me , my body wracked with unbearable pain . With a sinister glare , Lucy raised the knife and slashed it across my face . " Ahhh ! " A guttural scream tore from my throat as the searing pain jolted my half - unconscious mind awake . [ 0 At that moment , Evelynn's phone rang . She answered with a triumphant smile and put it on speaker . My father , Jack's , voice came through the line . " Evelynn , I'm almost there . What's going on ? Why is it so noisy ? " [ ] Evelynn sneered and replied , " Oh , I'm just teaching a mistress a lesson ! " || Jack paused , stunned . I " A mistress ? "
