Billionaire Boyfriend Went Mad After I Died

Three days after my boyfriend’s adopted sister died a tragic death, I clutched a so-called "hush money" check in my hand and became an accomplice in everyone’s eyes.My boyfriend once knelt in the pouring rain to beg me, and his sister's five-year-old daughter cried and begged me to testify, but I refused them both.Ten years later, when I was dying of cancer, my boyfriend Keal Simpson had become a billionaire.He founded a brain-computer interface tech company and developed a memory extraction device intended for the dead. If used on the living, it causes immense pain.Yet, he chose me to be the subject for his first live demonstration of "Memory Regression."Kael stood under the spotlight, a massive holographic screen behind him, facing countless flashing shutters and stunned media.I, meanwhile, had just undergone a ten-hour cancer resection surgery when his secretary, Seraphina, forcibly dragged me from my hospital bed to this place.I sat slumped in a cold wheelchair like a lamb w

Seraphina marched straight to the console of the precision instrument."Mr.Simpson, it's been so long since the incident. Elara has undoubtedly buried the truth in the deepest recesses of her mind. Standard power levels won't breach her psychological defenses."She announced this with feigned professionalism, though a cruel smirk played on her lips."We have to crank it up to the maximum threshold to force the extraction.""It might be a little painful for her, but it won't kill her," she added. "For the sake of the truth, and to avenge Lily, it's our only option."Kael's back stiffened slightly, but he didn't turn around, nor did he stop her.Taking his silence as permission, Seraphina cast aside all restraint.She slammed the dial all the way into the red zone!"No—!"My scream was torn to shreds by an even more violent agony before it could fully escape my throat.Blood gushed frantically from my eyes, nose, ears, and even the corners of my mouth.Yet, the blinded crowd below remain

A piercing red alarm instantly blared across the entire venue."Beep—Warning! Weak vital signs detected! Brainwave dissipation imminent!""Warning! Critical sectors unreadable! Immediate termination recommended!"The cold mechanical voice was like a heavy hammer smashing into Kael's heart.Looking at me lying motionless in the chair like a broken doll, Kael's sanity finally snapped."Stop! I said stop!" he roared, reaching out to slam the red emergency stop button.No matter how important the truth was, he couldn't watch me die right in front of him.However, just as his hand was about to touch the button...*Snap*!A hand with bright red fingernails beat him to it and yanked the power cord of the alarm!Kael looked up at Seraphina in shock."What the hell are you doing?!"Seraphina's face wore a look of twisted, manic obsession. She blocked the console, speaking rapidly to manipulate him:"Kael, don't let her fool you! She's self-hypnotizing!""Her subconscious is building a defense b

The entire venue descended into suffocating chaos.The livestream hadn't been cut, and hundreds of millions of viewers witnessed this reversal with their own eyes.The barrage of comments cursing me vanished instantly, replaced by a wall of shock, guilt, and then, overwhelming rage.The reporters on site snapped out of their stupor. Flashbulbs erupted in a frenzy, no longer pointed at me, but focused squarely on Kael's ashen face and Seraphina, who had collapsed to the floor."Mr. Simpson ! Is it true that your father murdered your stepsister, and Elara hid everything just to protect your reputation and future?""You just used torture on the woman you love, pushing her to the brink of death. Do you have a comment?""This is nothing short of premeditated murder! It's a lynching under the guise of justice!"The reporters' questions pelted Kael like stones.The audience below began to riot. Some even broke through the barricades, rushing toward the stage."Monsters! Your whole family is a

In the six months after I left, Kael went mad.He was no longer the high-spirited tech mogul.He locked himself in our old rental apartment, full of our memories, drinking himself into a stupor, smashing things, and muttering to my urn as if I were still alive.He didn't just destroy his health; he went rogue.He publicly attacked the internet trolls who had cyberbullied me and even used his hacking skills to expose their IP addresses.Everyone said the genius Kael was ruined.Until the day Daisy, her memories fully restored, kicked open that closed door.She stepped over the sea of bottles, walked up to the bearded, beggar-like Kael, and slapped him hard."Uncle Kael! Look at yourself!""Mommy and Aunt Elara gave their lives for your future! Did they die so you could rot like this?""Her last message was a congratulation, not permission for you to lose your mind here!"Kael froze.He looked at Daisy, who resembled Lily so much, and then at the cold urn in his arms.The image of two gi
