The Ninth Bride (Samantha and Finley)

Samantha Wallace met her tragic end. She was betrayed by her sister and the man she loved deeply. After her death, her body was left abandoned in the wilderness, exposed to the scorching sun, and attacked by snakes, insects, and rodents. Within just three days, her corpse became unrecognizable. She believed this was her final fate.

However, just as her soul was about to fade away, her husband, Finley Dean, appeared.

• He was like a ray of light that illuminated her dark world.

• Finley picked up the disfigured Samantha, cradling her as if she were a precious treasure, and brought her back to the villa from which she had desperately tried to escape.

• After gently placing Samantha on the bed, Finley sat by her side and reached out to touch her face, which she couldn't bear to look at. "Why didn't you listen to me? Didn't I ask you to wait for me to come back? Why didn't you wait for me? Why couldn't you wait for me?"

Finley's eyes turned red, and at that moment, a breaking news flashed on the TV. "Today at noon, Noah Hunter, the president of Hunter Corporation, and Amy Wallace, the heiress of Wallace Corporation, died in an explosion on their wedding day. The suspect is believed to be Finley Dean, the president of Dean Corporation..."

• Upon watching the news on TV, Samantha trembled as she looked at Finley, who was kissing her decaying body. "Finley," she whispered. Unfortunately, he couldn't hear her.

Finley released her and reached for the poison beside him before consuming it all. Samantha tried to raise her hand to stop him, but her hand passed right through the bottle in his grasp. • "No! Finley, don't!"RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

• He coughed up blood and lay beside Samantha while holding her tightly. "If we can meet again in the next life, I hope I can fulfill the promise I made to you to protect you completely. I'm sorry, Sam. I couldn't do it in this life. In the next life, I will definitely do it. Definitely..."

• Finley closed his eyes. A tear slid down his cheek before he completely lost his breath. Samantha stood beside him while screaming in agony, "No! Finley!"

...

"Hurry up, the Dean Family is waiting."

"This girl is really unlucky. She could have married anyone, but she ended up marrying someone from the Dean Family. I heard that the person from the Dean Family is not only disabled but also extremely ugly. Every bride who marries him never survives the night."

"This girl is already the ninth bride I've sent to the Dean Family. I don't know if she can survive tonight."

"All right. We're paid to do the job. We'll do whatever the boss tells us to do."

"Faster. We need to get this girl up the mountain before 8 p.m."

When Samantha woke up, she found herself sitting in a red sedan chair. She looked around at the pitch-black surroundings and the four strong men carrying her up the mountain. A hint of shock flashed in her eyes. This place seemed so familiar.

In her previous life, she had been carried up the mountain like this and became Finley's wife. At that time, she was still naive and ignorant. She married Finley in place of Amy.

• Later, she regained her intelligence by chance and forgot everything that had transpired between her and Finley when she was naive. When her memories returned, she had already been abandoned in the wilderness by Amy and Noah.

• Upon regaining her memories, she remembered that she had done many things to harm Finley in her previous life because she had seen his disfigured face behind the mask. Furthermore...
