Chapter 6

Author: Lennox Chase
When I left the restroom, I saw Shereen and Nicholas comforting the patient’s wife.

"Ma’am, don’t worry," Shereen said. "My boyfriend and I will help you sue her. We’ll make sure she goes to prison."

The moment she saw me, she fell silent, but the hatred in her eyes was obvious.

Just then, a police officer approached me.

"The hospital’s surveillance cameras were broken. They weren’t repaired in time."

At the same time, the autopsy report came out. The cause of death: post-surgical infection due to a pair of scissors left inside his body.

Just like in my past life, my surgical assistants testified that only I had touched those scissors.

"So she really did kill him." Shereen pointed at me.

Nicholas stared coldly. "Theresa, you have to pay for your mistake."

"Wait," I interrupted. Then I handed my phone to the police officer. "Officer, I have a personal habit of recording my surgeries for reference. I installed a camera with the hospital director’s permission."

    He gazed at me with deep affection. "Theresa, in this lifetime, I’m devoted to you and only you."And I had once told him, "Nicholas, I will stay with you for a lifetime, never leaving, never abandoning you."Snapping back to reality, I looked at the man before me. In the past, just seeing him would fill my heart with overwhelming love, but now, all that remained was hatred."Nicholas, how do you even have the audacity to say these things to me? You betrayed me. You killed me. And yet, you still dare to dream that I’d stay by your side? How disgusting. How pathetic can you be? Get the hell out!" I roared, unleashing all the emotions that had been buried deep inside me.My words left him frozen in place. His eyes turned red in an instant. Tears dripped onto the floor."I'm sorry. I lost control back then—that’s why I cheated. I regret it. I regret it so much. If I could go back just a few months, I swear I wouldn’t have betrayed you.""There is no ‘if’. Nicholas, everything that’s

  • A Gamble with Health   Chapter 9

    I felt a vague sense of unease in my heart and hurried home.As soon as I opened the door, I saw Shereen.Under the dim glow of the streetlamp outside, I noticed she was holding a syringe filled with bright red blood."Theresa, you did this on purpose, didn't you?" Her expression was twisted with malice. "You knew Nicholas would despise me. You wanted to use him to get revenge on me."I took a step back, gripping the doorknob, ready to run, but she noticed my movement."Don't move. If you run, I'll stab this syringe into you. I'm not afraid of dying anyway."She was completely insane.At this hour, my bodyguards had already gone off duty, so there was no one to protect me. I swung my handbag at her with all my strength. Then, I yanked open the door and bolted.I ran as fast as I could, while she chased after me like a madwoman, even throwing the syringe at me. Luckily, I dodged in time.In the end, I rushed to a nearby police station and reported her.Unfortunately, Shereen h

  • A Gamble with Health   Chapter 8

    “You knew you had AIDS, and you still slept with me?”Nicholas was absolutely livid. He ripped off his suit jacket and threw it to the ground, then frantically wiped his hands with tissues.“Shereen, I swear, if anything happens to me, I’ll kill you!”Shereen’s face turned deathly pale. “Nicholas, didn’t you say you’d stay with me even if I had cancer? And now you’re treating me like this? You’re such a hypocrite!”“You actually believed that nonsense?” Nicholas turned to leave, but Shereen clung to his leg.“You’re not allowed to leave. Today is our wedding!”Nicholas kicked her away furiously. “Get lost, you filthy bitch!”Watching this scene reminded me of my past life. Back then, I had also been kicked aside just like this.Suddenly, a stream of red trickled down Shereen’s legs, staining her white wedding dress.Nicholas was so terrified that he turned and ran, but as he rushed down the stage, he tripped and fell hard—only to look up and meet my gaze.His eyes suddenly

  • A Gamble with Health   Chapter 7

    In the end, every one of them faced legal consequences, but Nicholas managed to escape punishment.I clenched my fists, swallowing my anger.It didn’t matter—I still had other ways to send him to prison.…That night, Nicholas came looking for me again. He knocked on the door, but this time, I didn’t open it.He sneered from outside. “Theresa, money is omnipotent. Today, every single one of them refused to testify against me for the sake of money. Haha, do you really think you can win against me?“But I must say, you’re smart. You actually predicted my plan in advance. I’d like to see if you can escape next time, just like you did this time.”After he left, he didn’t come after me for a long while. I knew he was definitely planning something even bigger to take me down, so I hired several bodyguards to protect myself.Then, I focused on my work at the hospital, staying low-key because promotion season was coming up. Not only did I want revenge, but I also wanted to advance my c

    "Why?!" He grabbed my hand like a madman."You already have a child." I violently shook him off. "Nicholas, don’t you love Shereen? I’m just helping you two be together. Isn’t that a good thing?"In my past life, he was the one who said that I was the obstacle between him and Shereen. This time, I’d fulfill their wish."Theresa, you’ll regret leaving me." He glared at me furiously before slamming the door and storming out.I wouldn’t regret it. The only one who would regret it was him. After all, he was so terrified of AIDS.Once I recovered, I went to Nicholas’s office. I knew he wouldn’t be there today because I saw his latest social media post—he was out shopping for wedding outfits with Shereen.The caption read: "My baby is so beautiful."Disgusting.I wondered if he’d still think she was beautiful when he found out she had AIDS.I extracted some files from his computer and left quietly.Soon, the day of the trial arrived. Nicholas’s affair was well-documented, so I won
