Ethan Blackwood learned young that love was luxury.He lost both parents as a child.His father died in mysterious accident,and his mother,unable to recover,died years later from illness, leaving Ethan alone. He grew up wealthy but deprived of what money could not buy.He inherited his father’s business empire early. His intelligence, ruthlessness, and cold nature made him famous. He trusted no one and let no one close enough to hurt him

Guest grew up with another kind of pain. Her childhood was destroyed by the Blackwood family. Her father had worked with Ethan’s father, but a decision by the elder Blackwood ruined her family. Her father lost his livelihood, her family lost their home, and later, its consequences killed people she loved. She grew up hearing the Blackwood name with hatred. As a child, she vowed they would pay. Years later, she learned Ethan was the last heir and approached him.It was only revenge

But when Ethan saw Guest,he changed.For the first time, he opened his locked heart.He let her into his life,heart,and gave her complete trust.He loved her deeply,gave her anything,listened to her,and built his future around her.He placed ring on her finger and planned their wedding.When she teased him,he smiled

“I’m willing to die for you”

“I’m willing to lose everything for you"

To Guest,they were beautiful words.Ethan meant them

One evening,Ethan was leaving.At the door,he smiled

“Won’t I get a goodbye kiss?”

Guest laughed and threw a pillow at him.He caught it

“That’s cruel"

She smiled

“Goodbye,Ethan”

He shook his head and left.Neither knew they would become her cruelest memory

Once,at an arcade, Guest picked up a toy shooting gun and pointed it at him.Ethan laughed

"Really?”

She pulled the trigger،The game sound filled the room. Neither knew it would return cruelly

Later, Guest wanted somewhere far from everyone,just them

“I can buy you an island”

he said

“We can disappear”

She refused

"I already know a place”

She led him deep into forest

“Come on.I want you to see something”

Ethan followed without hesitation. He trusted her

Deep in the forest, Guest stopped and raised gun.Ethan froze, thinking it was a joke.Then the shot rang through the trees.He staggered back,clutching the wound.The pain meant little beside his disbelief.He looked not at the gun,but at her

“You…”

His voice broke

“Why?”

Tears filled Guest‘s eyes,but she kept it raised

“Because you’re a Blackwood”

The name suddenly meant everything

“After everything…”

Ethan whispered,his breathing weakening

“Was any of it real?”

She looked away.For a moment,she almost dropped it,but her past and hatred returned

“Goodbye,Ethan”

He reached toward her

“Please…”

She turned away.His voice followed her one last time, weaker than before

“Won’t I get a goodbye kiss?”

She stopped,trembling,almost turning back.But she didn’t

"Goodbye,Ethan”

She walked away,certain she had killed the man who loved her most.She never knew Ethan was still breathing.She believed revenge had finally won,never imagining that the man she shot would survive.Ethan,meanwhile,lay silent beneath the trees, holding onto the last pieces of his broken trust.She believed he was dead
