Chapter 120 D That afternoon , I was jolted awake by the nonstop buzzing of my phone . " Groggy , I picked it up , only to see the screen flooded with breaking news about Denton . My heart immediately sank . Something told me it wasn't going to be good . \ With trembling fingers , I clicked on one of the alerts , and the video started playing . " Denton was auctioning off Mick's heart . " His voice came through the speakers like a whisper from the devil , each word slicing into me like a blade . " Ladies and gentlemen , this heart belonged to a bastard born from betrayal and filth . His existence was a stain on my marriage , so today , I'm auctioning his heart . His blood and flesh will serve as penance for him and for the sins of his mother . Let this be a warning to everyone to stay loyal in your marriage , or this could be your fate ." } " No ! That's not true ! You liar ! " I screamed , my throat raw , tears flooding my eyes until I could barely see the screen . Mick wasn't a bastard . He was sweet . He was gentle . He was my whole world . How could anyone say that about him ? " My body started shaking violently from anger , grief , and despair . They crashed over me in waves , dragging me under . wanted to dive into that screen and tear that man to pieces . " And now , for the second ' piece of art , " Denton's voice rang out again , gleeful and manic . " This item captures a woman's so - called redemption in the face of sin . It's a reminder to every woman who dares to betray her marriage that your end will be disgrace , destruction , and pain . " [ The screen then changed , and there I was . } Photos of me , trapped in that room , the one covered in cameras and flashing lights , surrounded by strangers who violated me , flashed across the screen one after another. In every picture , I was broken , dirty , stripped of dignity . My body was battered , and my eyes were empty . " Each photo cut into me like a dagger . " " Aah ! " I let out a scream of pure agony . My phone slipped from my hands , hit the ground , and shattered . I curled up into a ball on the floor , hands clutching my face as my stomach turned violently , I also retched , even though there was nothing left in me . The humiliation , the cold stares , the hands that touched me without permission , all of it surged back like a tidal wave , crashing over me , drowning me . " I know sorne of you might find this disgusting , " Denton continued on the livestream , his voice filled with fake righteousness , " But that's exactly the point . When someone chooses to betray love , to betray their vows , they enter a filthy , pathetic hell of their own making . Betrayers never meet a good end . " } I thought I was numb by now . That nothing could hurt me anymore . But I was wrong . The pain had no end . The despair had no bottom . " " Sadie ! " Grandma and Uncle shouted and then burst through the door . Their eyes then landed on the cracked phone screen with the photos still glowing grotesquely on it . Seeing those , their faces turned to stone . " Denton ! " my uncle roared , fury blazing in his eyes . " That bastard dares to do this ?! " My grandmother trembled as she knelt beside me , pulling me into her arms . Tears silently slid down her face as she stroked my back . " It's okay , Sadie . Don't be afraid . Grandma's here . I won't let him get away with this . I promise . " I lifted my head , my eyes hollow , staring at her as if I were barely still human . I felt like a puppet whose strings had all been cut , empty , drained , and filled only with hate . " I want him dead . " I croaked , my voice hoarse and broken . Grandma and Uncle exchanged a look . Then Grandma gave a firm nod . " Okay . I promise . He'll pay . We'll make sure he lives a life worse than death . " @ I closed my eyes as tears streamed silently down my face . Mick , Mommy would make them pay . Everyone who hurt you . Everyone who ruined us . I'd make sure none of them get away
