By the time he finally transferred during his sophomore year, she had already graduated and left.

He later heard she got married. He never thought he would see her again on campus.

“Yeah, I switched. I’m in my first year of grad school under Professor Baltimore. Did you come back to campus too?”

“I did. I’m planning on grad school too, but right now I’m helping Professor Clocke organize the archives. You’re already in grad school? Congrats. I’m not your senior anymore, then. Who knows, maybe you’ll be mine.”

Anneliese laughed. She still remembered Jackson. Back when he was fighting through his transfer, he had come to her for advice more than once.

Jackson’s eyes landed on her bare fingers, and his smile grew.

“Glad I called you Anneliese, then. Let me help you carry this.”

“Thanks. Let’s reintroduce ourselves then. I’m Anneliese.”

They walked upstairs together, talking.

Not far away, Lenora stood hidden at the corner. Jealousy burned in her eyes as she glared at them.

Anneliese, you b*tch, she thought.

Anneliese spent the morning buried in the archives, so focused she nearly forgot the time.

By noon she hurried out of campus toward the bus stop when a car pulled up beside her.

A fat man with a round face and big ears stepped out of the back seat and grabbed her.

Anneliese instantly recognized him. It was Mr. Chokehand, an old business partner from Clauderias Tech.

Half a year ago, during a pitch meeting, he had almost taken advantage of her.

That was the day Zacharias stormed in, beat him bloody, and dragged her out. After that, Zacharias used it to force her into quitting her job and staying home to prepare for pregnancy.

“Let go! Or else Zacharias will show up and crack your head again!”

Her stomach twisted as she shook him off, her cold.

But Chokehand didn’t let go. His greasy stare lingered over her body.

“Don’t fake it. You think I don’t know you’re divorcing him? He already has someone else. Just be my girl.

“I can give you everything he did, maybe more. Better than wasting your time chasing after some college boy.”

His thick, sweaty hand reached for hers.

Anneliese fought back. She screamed, her voice cutting through the street, drawing the of passersby. But Chen Jie, heavy and powerful, glared at them like a wolf daring anyone to step in.

“What are you staring at? Never seen a married couple fight before?”

The crowd backed away. No one moved to help. Jacques Chokehand dragged her toward the curb.

Her chest tightened with panic.

Suddenly, a car swerved hard and smashed into the parked car beside them, the sound of metal crunching loud in her ears.

Jacques cursed and whipped his head around.

Anneliese seized her chance. She kicked him straight between the legs.

He buckled, groaning in agony as he clutched himself, and she bolted.

By the time he straightened, she was gone. “You little b*tch! This isn’t over!”

Still cursing, Chen Jie held his groin and limped back to his car. He glared at the driver as the
