After His Confession Chapter 10
He froze, confused. “What do you mean by that?”I turned slightly, glancing just ahead.Our confrontation had drawn attention. Mr. Williams, who had just presented my award, was now approaching, flanked by security.“Professor Green, you seem to be having some trouble. Do you require any assistance?”I bowed slightly, composed and respectful.“This gentleman insists I am his wife. He has threatened to use legal measures to take my son and force me to return to his country.”Mr. Williams’ expression froze.After all, everyone knew that a researcher’s work followed their nationality.Frowning, he turned to Tony, his authority palpable.“Professor Green is our nation’s highest-level distinguished expert, recipient of the National Merit Award. Her contributions are irreplaceable! “Your statements just now constitute a serious threat and defamation of our top scientist. Your actions will be treated as an attempt to steal our nation’s cutting-edge secrets! I can have you arrested

Time flew. Soon, three years had passed. I was living peacefully and fully in a foreign country with my son.Having reclaimed my career in scientific research, the years stolen by marriage and betrayal were slowly filled with professional achievements.Today was a milestone.A cutting-edge research project I had led was being awarded the nation’s highest honor.The ceremony was at the National Conference Center, and the head of state himself would present the medal.I was backstage in a tailored gown, waiting for my turn, when my phone buzzed. A message from Mia appeared.[Astrid, that lunatic Tony found your fake grave. He had the coffin dug up on the spot. When he saw it empty, with just a handful of withered flowers, he started looking for you everywhere. Be careful!]I tapped my reply. [Don’t worry.]I was no longer the Astrid of three years ago.My achievements and my status were my armor, solid enough to protect my son and me.A staff member leaned close. “Professor

Jane was rushed into the operating room, and soon her heartbeat stopped.Just like Astrid, there were two deaths.Tony was sentenced for assault with intent to kill.The Baldino family spent a fortune pulling strings and leveraging every connection to get him bailed out.When he emerged, Tony was completely broken.He spent every day inside our villa, clutching bottles of alcohol, laughing and crying at my photos.“Astrid… Honey…”His hands trembled as he touched my face in the photo. Tears poured down in heavy streams.“I’m sorry. I deserve to die! Should I go down to you and the baby? Wait for me. I’m coming…”He finished the last bottle of liquor, swaying unsteadily, and walked into the nursery that had long been prepared.Pale blue walls, cloud-shaped lamps, a crib with a mobile…Everything had been chosen together.I had touched my slightly rounded belly back then, smiling with contentment, saying we would give our baby the best of the world.Now, the baby was gone, a

Rain began to pour. Tony kneeled in the puddle outside the hospital, motionless.A sudden umbrella appeared above his head. Thinking it was Mia, he looked up sharply, only to find it was Jane.The small spark of hope in his heart was instantly extinguished.“Tony, don’t be like this. Even though Astrid is gone, you still have me and our child.”Jane reached out to help him up. “From now on, I’ll stay by your side. The three of us can be a family.”Tony shook her hand off and glared at her, his eyes bloodshot. “Who do you think you are? How dare you mention her?”Jane trembled in fear. The umbrella slipped from her hand.Rain instantly soaked her hair and shoulders, making her look even more pitiful.“Tony, I know you’re hurting, but I truly love you. Otherwise, why would I be willing to carry your child?”Tony looked as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. His expression twisted as he suddenly shoved her away.“Love? If it weren’t for that strong drink at the club

“No, that’s impossible! Nothing could have happened to Astrid!”Tony clutched his head and dropped to his knees, unable to accept it.His eyes were bloodshot as he gripped the head nurse’s arm.“Where are their bodies?! If I don’t see my wife and child, I won’t believe they’re dead!”The head nurse looked at him and sighed.“Mrs. Astrid and her baby's bodies have already been claimed and buried by our attending physician. Dr. Holdsworth was Ms. Green’s close friend. She was very upset while handling the arrangements and even took leave because of it.”Mia… was Astrid’s best friend!“On what grounds?!”Tony completely lost control. “I’m Astrid’s husband! What right does Mia have to handle my wife and child’s bodies over me?! How could your hospital let her take them? Do you believe I can shut this place down overnight?!”He roared without restraint as more people gathered around.The head nurse forcefully shook off his hand. The last trace of politeness in her eyes disappeared

Tony’s whole body trembled. On the verge of collapse, he forced himself to hold on to the last trace of rationality.With shaking hands, he pulled up the surveillance footage on his phone, tapping several times before finally hitting playback.However, what he saw dragged him straight into the abyss.That night, he had carried Jane in his arms as she cried about her stomach hurting. Impatient, he shoved me out of the way without even looking back and rushed out the door.I staggered from the push and fell hard onto the ground.Then I curled up in pain. Dark red liquid quickly spread beneath me, soaking through my nightgown.Clutching my stomach, I crawled with difficulty to grab my phone and called for help. More than ten minutes later, medical staff broke in and carried my blood-covered body onto a stretcher.Tony’s face turned deathly pale.It felt like a hand had gripped his heart, squeezing tightly. His lips trembled uncontrollably.He was the one who pushed her.She had

After being discharged, I went straight to the airport with my baby.Before boarding, Tony’s calls kept coming.I sneered and threw my phone straight into the trash.Holding my sleeping child, I watched as the plane passed through the clouds outside the window. For the first time in a long while,

Taking advantage of Tony’s absence, I began preparing for my fake death.My new identity had already been arranged. Now, all I needed was for the death certificate to take effect and the right opportunity for the accident.I thought Tony wouldn’t be back until morning.However, in the middle of t

The death certificate my friend helped me to forge would take effect in three days.Just as I hung up, Tony walked in.As always, the first thing he did was come up behind me and wrap his arms around me.“Still waiting for me? Why didn’t you eat the cheesecake?”There was a faint scent of cheap

The moment I heard Tony admit the affair, my hand froze against my stomach, and my expression went still.Tony didn’t notice anything wrong. Instead, he continued to ramble on.“Jane works at a club. I was drunk that night we slept together. I didn’t expect that just once would get her pregnant.”
