After the incident where the Grant family tried to force me into marriage, their problems have only piled up.
In just six months, Harold and I turned the Sandoval family’s business into a booming empire. He even opened branches in several countries. As our company flourished, the Grant family crumbled.
When we returned to the country, we heard from others that the Grant family was now drowning in debt.
After Yeshua married Heidi, she took over the company’s operations. But she had absolutely no experience and made a critical error–she placed the wrong orders.
By the time the production team realized something was wrong, the company had already mass–produced faulty products.§
Worse, the entire batch had been funded through expensive loans.
The clients refused to accept the defective products, and the goods piled up in the warehouse. That’s when the Grant family realized they had completely lost control.
To make matters worse, rumors were already circulating in the capital’s elite circles–especially about how the Grant family had tried to kidnap me for the sake of my “prosperous fate.” Their reputation plummeted. No one was willing to help them.
Lenders pulled away. Even the banks refused to provide funding, fearing the Grant family’s soaring debt ratio.
Three months had passed. They couldn’t even pay their employees.
Strikes broke out.
That very day, upon our return to the country, I received a call from Yeshua.§
“Julianna… I know I was wrong. Please, come back to me,” his voice trembled over the phone.
“If you do, I swear–I love you for the rest of my life.”
“I know you never truly loved Harold,” he added. “Your heart still belongs to me.”
I couldn’t help but laugh softly.”
“You’re mistaken, Yeshua,” I replied calmly.}
“Harold and I are doing just fine. In fact, we’re expecting our first child.”
I gently rested my hand on my belly, a smali smile tugging at my lips.

This child, a product of love and trust, was my greatest happiness–something I never found with Yeshua.}
He continued begging, but I didn’t entertain it. I hung up without another word.
That chapter of my life was over.”

Eventually, the court seized all of the Grant family’s assets and auctioned them off to pay the workers‘ wages.
Harold even bought a few of those assets himself.}
As for Yeshua–he and his parents were forced to rent a tiny, run–down apartment.”
They also owed massive sums in loan shark debt.”
But the creditors didn’t care about their sob stories. They showed up daily to threaten and assault Yeshua, beating him mercilessly every time he failed to pay up.
In the end, broken and desperate, Yeshua committed suicide by burning charcoal in his rented apartment on a rainy night.
By the time his body was discovered, it had already started to decay.
Meanwhile, I gave birth to my and Harold’s child right on schedule.N
A few months later, while i was home caring for our baby, I received an unexpected call from the police.
“Hello, are you the cousin of Heidi?” the officer asked.D
It turned out Heidi had taken the stolen money to a casino. She gambled everything away and racked up even more debt. Pushed to the edge by relentless debt collectors, she jumped from a building.
The police wanted me, as her only living relative, to claim her body.
“I’m sorry,” I replied coldly. “I have nothing to do with her anymore.“W
Then I hung up the phone and turned to see Harold gently rocking our baby to sleep.
This life–the one I rebuilt from the ashes–was finally filled with peace and joy.
And the Grant family?
As fate would have it, they were utterly destroyed. Just as the prophecy warned.
