“Don’t leave so quickly. You probably don’t know yet. Today is the celebration banquet for the company’s listing. You came at the right time, so please stay and celebrate with us.”
“After all, this company is Aunt Winona’s years of hard work.”
I stopped for a moment when she mentioned the company. This was the last thing my mother left me before she passed away. If the accident five years ago hadn’t happened, I would have to be the one hosting this party ...
A sharp pain suddenly hit my chest and a waiter led me to a seat in the center of the front row.
Soon, the celebration started. Abigail, dressed in a luxurious gown, walked onto the stage slowly with Nicholas beside her. She picked up the microphone.
“Let’s warmly celebrate the successful listing of Lovett Group. Now, please enjoy our company’s tenth-anniversary video.”
As soon as she finished speaking, my loud scream echoed through the entire hall.
The large screen around the venue started playing a video. It showed several rough hands grabbing my skin and my body was covered with bruises.
The man’s face in the video was blurred, but my bare skin and the blood were clearly shown. Anyone watching would think I was some kind of ‘slut’.
