Chapter 5

Amid my parents' screams, I wiped away my tears and kowtowed to her in humiliation:

"I'll do whatever you tell me to do. I absolutely won't covet things that don't belong to me."

Nara threw all her documents at me, then took my documents and began preparing her elopement plan.

Through the subtitles, I learned she and the poor student had booked a smuggling boat and reserved a house abroad.

Following Nara's instructions, I converted all her expensive bags and jewelry into cash and deposited it all into her account.

During this time, I also persisted in paving my own way.

Whenever I returned to Nara's home, I would secretly collect Nara's hair for future emergency use.

The subtitles grew more and more anxious:

[The more I watch this Sarah, the less she seems like a good person. I feel like Nara is raising a tiger that will devour her.]

[If only Nara would check the weather forecast before setting her itinerary, she could avoid the tsunami!]

I counted down to the elopement day, extremely excited inside.

As long as Nara got on that boat and died in the tsunami, I wouldn't have to live in fear anymore.

I seized every opportunity to get close to Diego.

However, Diego was unfathomable.

One day he actually said to me:

"Nara, you're not quite what I imagined."

I used coquettishness to hide my panic, asking him what was different.

"According to my investigation, you were previously madly in love with a poor student and even wanted to cancel the engagement for him."

"I wonder what made you change your mind and agree to this arranged marriage with me?"

I scoffed, putting on a disgusted expression:

"Can we not mention that tacky ex-boyfriend? Isn't that bad luck?"

Diego stared at me meaningfully:

"Since you dislike your ex-boyfriend so much, I'll keep an eye on him for you and absolutely won't let him harass you again."

I suppressed my panic, treating Diego's words as a joke.

In our subsequent interactions, I began occasionally mentioning the poor student to avoid Diego's suspicion.

After enduring a few more days, the day of Nara's elopement finally arrived.

According to plan, I stayed at Diego's place that night.

I wanted to take the opportunity to sleep with him, while the subtitles live-broadcast the elopement process.

[It makes me so angry to see Sarah hugging and kissing Diego! She's here embracing the rich and handsome guy while the real Nara can only secretly board a boat to elope.]

[Nara has ultimately boarded the ship of no return. The tsunami is approaching. My female lead is going to die like this...]

Seeing the subtitles say that Nara's boat had set sail, the heavy stone in my heart finally settled.

After tonight, I would be the real Nara!

No one would ever harm our family again, and I wouldn't have to be anyone's dog anymore.

All that awaited me in the future would be inexhaustible wealth and honor.

Suppressing my inner excitement, I was about to continue being intimate with Diego when his assistant suddenly pounded on the door frantically:

"This is bad! That poor student eloped with Nara! Someone saw them board a ship heading abroad!"

My body stiffened, and I completely panicked.

Of all my calculations, I never calculated this.

Diego wasn't joking—he was actually keeping an eye on the poor student!

If Diego wanted to get to the bottom of this, I would definitely be exposed!

Not only would all my efforts be wasted, but our family of three couldn't escape a horrible death either...

Just as I was in a panic, Diego looked at me suspiciously, then opened the door and questioned his assistant:

"Are you sure that woman who eloped is my fiancée Nara?"

"Positive! I received photos!"

Diego took the phone and looked. His expression instantly froze.

The next second, he viciously grabbed my hand:

"If the woman who eloped is Nara, then who are you?"

My heart jumped into my throat.

At the same time, the subtitles began scrolling frantically before my eyes.
