Seven Days Before I Die For You Chapter 01

"Ms. Sterling, your heart match was successful, but I must ask you last time: are you truly willing to donate your heart on behalf of the Blackwood family?"
Victoria Sterling stood in the courtyard, letting the rain fall upon her. Her gaze into the distance was filled with a sense of liberation.
"I am."
"Very well. We will give you one week to settle your affairs, and then someone will come to pick you up."
Victoria hung up the phone and walked into the living room, looking at the lingerie carelessly discarded on the floor; seemingly accustomed to the sight, she went up to the second floor with a numb expression.
Everyone in their social circle knew she was a useless doormat, while her husband, Alexander Blackwood, changed women frequently.
He would sleep with any woman, yet he refused to touch his lawfully wedded wife.
As Victoria passed the master bedroom, she heard moans coming from inside; she glanced in inadvertently, her body turning ice-cold and her eyes instantly reddening.
She pushed the door open to see her husband shirtless, holding Alice Sterling tightly, and kissing her recklessly, which seemed he wanted to melt her.
Victoria's face looked ghastly; she stared fixedly ahead, her fingernails digging into her palms until they bled.
"Why?"
Alexander continued kissing the Alice's neck beneath him while looking provocatively at Victoria, with his eyes filled with hatred.
"Because I want you to suffer. This is the punishment you deserve."
Victoria's face went pale, her body swaying as if about to fall; she only steadied herself by leaning against the wall, the metallic taste of blood rising in her throat.
She and Alexander were childhood sweethearts, a couple envied by countless people on campus, and everyone thought they would happily walk down the aisle.
But three years ago, when Victoria arrived at the Blackwood family home, she saw Alexander's mother in bed with a beggar...
Although Jennifer Blackwood was having a psychotic episode, she could not accept what had happened once she regained clarity.
If word got out, the entire Blackwood family would become the laughingstock of their social circle.
Seeing the usually gentle and virtuous woman commit such a scandalous act, Victoria fled the villa in panic; she tried to drive away, only to hit Jennifer, who had darted out in front of the car.
Jennifer was covered in blood, yet she stopped Victoria from calling an ambulance, saying it was best to die like this and suffer no more, begging Victoria to keep her secret.
Looking at Jennifer's pain-filled face, Victoria helplessly agreed.
From then on, Victoria became the murderer responsible for Jennifer's death, destroying her relationship with Alexander.
Alexander could not accept reality and frantically questioned her if it was true.
To keep Jennifer's secret, Victoria could only silently admit to it.
And so, the love in Alexander's eyes vanished, replaced only by a hatred carved into his very bones.
He used the Blackwood family's resources to crush the Sterling family's company; Victoria's parents died in a car accident due to their distress, and he still forced Victoria to marry him.
She had thought that after marriage, her sincerity could dissolve the hatred in Alexander's heart.
She never expected that Alexander's revenge was only just beginning.
He constantly brought different women home, declaring he would rather sleep with a dog than touch her.
This painful marriage lasted three years, during which Alexander slept with everyone she knew.
But why did he have to extend his demonic claws to Alice?
After their parents' accident, Alice was the only bloodline left of the Sterling family, the sister in whom Victoria had placed her greatest hopes.
Victoria stared blankly at the scene before her, feeling as if her entire world was collapsing.
Upon seeing her sister, Alice's expression shifted slightly, and she instinctively tried to pull the sheet over to cover her body.
But it seemed Alexander, intent on punishing Victoria, deliberately put on a show of his promiscuity right before her eyes.
As Alice succumbed to the temptation, gradually losing herself in it, she cast aside all scruples and climbed on top.
The room was filled with the scent of lust, the battle lasting a full half-hour.
Victoria clenched her palms so tightly that she let the blood flow freely.
Once satisfied, Alexander smashed his messy clothes onto Victoria with indifferent expression. "Go wash these. And make some beef broth. Alice and I went three rounds; I'm a bit tired."
Victoria stood rooted to the spot, biting her lip until her eyes turned crimson.
Alexander's expression darkened. He seized her collar, his face twisting into a savage scowl.
"What right do you have to feel bad? When you crashed into my mother and killed her, did you ever think about today? This is all bad karma. You have to endure it."
The image of Jennifer's painful begging flashed through Victoria's mind; her tightly clenched hands slowly relaxed, and she lowered her head. "Okay."
Taking a deep look at her sister, who didn't dare meet her eyes, Victoria turned slowly. It was as if she had lost all life, becoming a walking corpse.
Seven more days.
Then she would donate her heart to the Lewis family on behalf of the Blackwood family.
After that, she would be completely free.
