My Lover Took My Oxygen Tank While We Were Diving

I was the live-in companion of a rich heiress. For ten whole years, I went from being her personal servant to the company’s second-in-command, and finally became her most understanding secret lover. Everyone in our circle used to say that surely she and I would end up together. Then the one she truly loved came back. She asked me to play the mermaid like always and entertain her, then drained all the oxygen from my tank. All because that man said, “Fish breathe through their gills.” I was rescued with half my life gone, and my heart died completely. I disappeared. But afterward, no matter where I went, she followed close behind. She demanded to know how I could forget her. “A fish’s memory only lasts seven seconds.”
