Capítulo 1

Era el día de la boda de la socialité de Avonsville, Avery Tate, pero no había novio a la vista.

El novio, Elliot Foster, había estado en estado vegetativo desde un accidente automovilístico hace

medio año. Sus médicos dijeron que no iba a sobrevivir hasta fin de año.

En un acto de dolor, la madre de Elliot decidió arreglar el matrimonio de su hijo antes de que tuviera un

final prematuro.

Los Foster eran una de las familias más ricas de Avonsville, pero ninguna socialité en su sano juicio

querría casarse con un hombre que estaba llamando a la puerta de la Muerte.

……

Avery se sentó en el tocador con su esbelta figura elegantemente vestida con un vestido de novia

blanco. Con su elegante maquillaje que resaltaba la exquisitez de su tez pálida, se veía tan delicada

como una rosa roja en ciernes.

Sin embargo, había una inquietud en sus ojos almendrados.

There was only another 20 minutes until the ceremony, and Avery was frantically sliding her fingers

across her phone screen, anxiously awaiting a text message.

She had a boyfriend before she was forced to marry Elliot, and it was a terrible coincidence that he just

happened to be Elliot’s nephew, Cole Foster.

However, they had never made their relationship public.

Avery had texted Cole the night before in hopes that they would escape Avonsville together and elope.

She had stayed up all night waiting, but she never got a reply.

She could wait no longer.

Avery rose from her seat, clenched her hand around her phone and made up an excuse to leave the

room.

She hurried down the corridor and froze in her tracks as she walked past one of the rooms.

Avery heard the sound of her sister, Cassandra giggling delightedly through the slightly ajar room door.

“I bet my dumb sister is still waiting for you to go to her, Cole! Maybe you should go and butter her up a

little more. What are we going to do if she changes her mind and decides to back out of the wedding?”

“Do you think she has a choice now that things have come this far?” Cole said as he held Cassandra in

his arms and nuzzled his thin lips against her neck. “Even if she tries to back out now, the guards will

drag her down the altar by the neck!”

Cassandra snickered wickedly, then said, “Avery will lose her mind if she finds out that you’ve been

spending every night with me!”

Avery felt a violent buzzing in her head. She took a step back and almost lost her balance.

She clenched her fists around her gown and held back the tears in her eyes.

Her father was admitted into hospital when his company went under.

Her stepmother, Wanda Tate, turned on Avery and forced her to marry into the Foster family so she could

reap the benefits. She had made it sound like the marriage was for the good of the Tate family, but Avery

knew that this was Wanda’s way of getting rid of her!

What was least expected, was the fact that the boyfriend who said he loved her would turn around and

betray her!

It was no wonder Cole urged her to carry on with the wedding. He said that he would marry her once

Elliot died, but it was all a huge lie!

All of her hopes and dreams were crushed, and she could barely breathe.

As the voices in the room intensified, Avery clenched her fists, and her eyes turned ice cold.

For years, she endured her stepmother and stepsister’s bullying for her father’s sake. She suffered

through all kinds of injustices for the sake of the family.

She was too stupid and naive.

Now, she would no longer allow them to take her for a fool!

She would take back all that was hers!

The wedding ceremony began shortly after.

Dressed in her wedding gown with a bouquet of flowers in her hands, Avery walked down the aisle as

soft, romantic music played in the background.

She said her own vows and put on her own wedding ring.

The crowd looked puzzled, but she paid them no mind.

From now on, she was Mrs. Foster, and she was untouchable.

However, her new husband, who used to hold Avonsville in the palm of his hand, did not have much

longer to live.

……

That night, Avery was sent to Elliot’s mansion.

It was located in the heart of the city’s affluent district and cost over 150 million dollars.

Before Avery could properly take in the mansion’s layout, Mrs. Cooper had dragged her to the master

bedroom.

Her eyes were immediately drawn to the man on the large bed. She slowly walked over and carefully

watched his face.

Elliot’s deep-set features stood out on his chiseled face, and he exuded a majestic aura of nobility.

His skin was unusually pale from spending all that time indoors, but his handsome face made one unable

to take their eyes off of him.

If he were not sick, Avery would have never become his wife.

Before he had been bed-ridden from the car crash, Elliot was a powerful figure in the country of

Aryadelle. Sterling Group, which he headed, was one of the country’s top ten corporations.

He was rumored to be ruthless and tyrannical and had a legal business as well as deals with the

underworld. Anyone who crossed him was bound to pay a hefty price.

Avery never thought that she would marry a man like Elliot.

The bedroom door opened while she was lost in thought.

It was Cole!

“I’m sorry, Avery! I was too busy today and just managed to come to see you,” said Cole as he

approached Avery with feigned sincerity on his face.

“I just married your uncle,” Avery snapped coldly. “Do I need to teach you how to address me?”

“I know you’re mad. I didn’t elope with you because I didn’t want you to suffer a difficult life. Uncle Elliot is

practically a dead man, so you don’t have to lift a finger while married to him. Once he’s dead, I’ll get a

good lawyer and make sure you get his whole estate!”

Cole eagerly grabbed Avery’s hands and said, “When that happens, everything he has will be ours!”

Avery recalled the earlier scene she had witnessed between Cole and Cassandra, and she felt a surge

of disgust.

“Let go!” she yelled as she violently shook his hands off.

Su grito repentino tomó a Cole por sorpresa. ¿Era este el Avery que conocía?

Avery siempre fue gentil y amable, y nunca le levantaba la voz.

¿Podría haberse enterado de algo?

Cole sintió una pizca de culpa y se acercó a Avery con la esperanza de explicarle las cosas.

Al momento siguiente, sus ojos se movieron hacia algo detrás de Avery. Sus ojos se abrieron con

incredulidad como si acabara de ver un fantasma.

“Él… Él…” Cole tartamudeó.

Elliot, que yacía inmóvil en la cama, comenzó a abrir lentamente los ojos.
