The story
Amelia was born with a heart condition, a fact her fiancé Ethan Cross's childhood friend Charlotte Whitmore has just discovered. At Charlotte's promotion party, Charlotte secretly pours a high-dose energy drink into Amelia's champagne, then swaps the water for her emergency medication with strong lemon water. When Amelia collapses in agony, Charlotte laughs and calls it acting, and the guests — all Charlotte and Ethan's friends — mock her and film her suffering.
Ethan, a mafia boss, refuses to call an ambulance, trusting Charlotte because she is a doctor. As Amelia crawls toward the door, Charlotte drags her back by the hair and throws her onto broken glass, then forces a high-strength sports drink into her mouth. When Ethan finally wavers, Charlotte blocks him with a phone showing a trailer of Amelia playing a heart-condition heroine, and his worry turns to cold anger.
Charlotte's friends pin Amelia down and pour whiskey into her mouth. Her heart cannot take it, and as suffocating pain spreads through her, she instinctively reaches out to Ethan for help.
Opening
The moment I drank it, my heart started racing, and stabbing pain spread through my chest.
In a panic, I tore open my only emergency medication, but the water I used to take it had been swapped with strong lemon water.
As soon as I drank it, my face went pale. I lost all strength and collapsed to the ground.
“Lemon water’s full of vitamin C. It helps with hangovers and keeps you healthy.”
Charlotte Whitmore laughed so hard she nearly doubled over. With her arms crossed, she looked at my fiance, Ethan Cross, the boss of the Rolling Stones.
