Chapter 11
The closest to me, Shaun, also pulled me over and stood with his back towards me, shielding me with his own body, building an
Indestructible barrier.
sulfuric acid was mercilessly poured onto Jared’s back, neck, and cheek
Instantly, a “sizzling” sound was emitted, and the skin began to smoke and ulcerate.
Jared groaned and fell heavily in front of me, curling his body up, with his hands still in a protective position.
He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from between them, “Whatever you’re coming for, don’t hurt her…”
The security personnel quickly approached and firmly pinned Tatiana down to the ground.
Her face was being trampled underfoot, while she was screaming frantically, “Raquel! I want you to diel Why don’t you just die!”
Shaun looked at me nervously and asked, “Raquel, do you have any problem?”
“I was fine.”
In the midst of chaos, medical personnel from the outfield rushed in to provide emergency treatment for Jared.
The bodyguards and Shaun escorted me to evacuate.
I turned around and took one last look at Jared’s pained and contorted face.
The look in his eyes dimmed slowly as I left.
Tatiana received the appropriate legal sanctions due to intentional harm.
Entertainment life was also ruined.
I went to the hospital to see Jared once
Jared, lying on the sickbed, heard a noise and struggled to turn his head. His once handsome face was now covered with horrifying
scars
The skin wrinkled, shrunk, and twisted, like scorched earth after a raging fire.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, his cracked lips slightly parted, and he uttered a hoarse voice, “Raquel, you came.”
I looked at the man in front of me, and my heart was filled with mixed feelings.
I gently placed the flowers on the table beside me, my gaze falling upon Jared’s face
But there was no love in my eyes, only complex emotions.
“Jared, thank you for shielding me from sulfuric acid that day.
“I will keep your life–saving grace in my heart.”
A glimmer of hope ignited in Jared’s eyes as he reached out his hand, attempting to grab mine. However, his hand halted in mid–air, covered in scars from the burning of sulfuric acid, giving it an especially grotesque appearance.
“Raquel, I know I was wrong. After going through this, you know I didn’t lie, you really mean a lot to me.
“We made up, it was me who was foolish before, please give me another chance.”
“Don’t worry, I went abroad for a skin grafting plastic surgery. Although it was impossible to fully restore my appearance to what it used to be, It won’t scare you either.”
My eyes were slightly red, and I turned my head away. “Jared, I appreciate that you got hurt for me, but it doesn’t mean I can forgive you for what you did to me in the past.”

“You deceived me for seven years, the trust between us had long been shattered, there can never be a future anymore.”
Jared’s eyes dimmed, his lips trembled, but he couldn’t utter a word.
I thought for a moment and continued, “I admit, I am not heartless, but those painful memories from the past cannot be erased by a mere accident. Moreover, this is the consequence of your own actions, which I consider to be an undeserved calamity. The way you are now can only be described as self–inflicted.”
The ward fell into silence, with only Jared’s faint breathing
I looked at him lying on the sickbed, with not much resentment in my heart, only deep exhaustion remained.
Love died. No amount of remorse can make a difference.
After a long while, I whispered, “Take good care of yourself and I hope you can live a good life in the future.”
After saying that, I turned around and walked away with determined steps.
A few months later, “Romance” was released.
It achieved both box office success and critical acclaim.
I won the Best Actress awards at the Golden Horse Awards, the Golden Rooster Awards, and the Golden Statue Awards, becoming a true “Triple Crown Best Actress.”
Career was successful, and love life was also smooth.
Shaun and I walked together.
This time, I was just Raquel, no longer a substitute for anyone.
