Birthday Bungee: My Wife's Murder Gift

I opened my eyes and found myself sitting in the back seat of a car. I instantly knew that I had been reborn when I was hit with a sudden, violent crash. I had unfortunately been reborn at the wrong moment, though, as the accident had already happened. Gerald Dawson, my brother-in-law, was struck in the accident, leaving his abdomen badly torn open and his intestines exposed.I had no time to worry about my pain. I struggled to pull out my phone, called an ambulance, and reported the accident to the police. I then yelled, "You have to hold on, Gerald! You can't fall asleep!"Harry Dawson, my father-in-law, was behind the wheel while Gerald sat in the front passenger seat. Gerald had the worst injuries and was clutching his stomach, his face drained of color.I quickly crawled out as the passersby pried open the crushed car door. I paid no mind to my forehead injury and tugged on Gerald. "You have to stay with me, Gerald!""S-Save me, Simon…"Gerald's face was deathly pale, and H

Just then, Harry dropped a message in the family group chat, asking everyone to come to Mercy Memorial Hospital to help out. Gerald's blood type was too rare, though, so no one in the family had a matching type.Everyone came rushing to the hospital the moment they found out Gerald had been hospitalized after the car accident.Upon seeing just a few of us standing outside the ER, Jessie Dawson, Harry's sister, asked, "Where's Gemma?"I looked distressed as I replied, "Gemma went off to watch a play with Brian. She thinks I'm lying and insists I made all this up to trick her into coming back, so she refuses to come to the hospital…"Jessie flew into a rage upon hearing that. "Has she lost her mind? Does she not know what's more important right now?""Don't bring up that worthless child!" Harry was shaking with rage as he took out his blood pressure medication and swallowed a pill. "We're disowning Gemma!"Our immediate priority at that moment was to save Gerald, so everyone quickl

Brian passed out on the day Gerald was buried. Gemma panicked and quickly took him to the hospital. They clung to each other as if they were two lovers determined to protect their relationship at all costs, while the rest of us were portrayed as the villains trying to break them up.Brian sent me a message after the funeral. "Gemma doesn't love you anymore, Simon. How long are you planning to hold on to her? She's currently pregnant with my child. There's no way the Dawsons can stop us from being together now, no matter how much they hate me!"I couldn't help but burst out laughing. It turned out that they had already slept together. They still would have ended up together, even if Gerald hadn't died. It didn't matter to me, though, as I actually hoped they could stay together for the rest of their lives this time. I dropped by the hospital ward to get Gemma's signature for the divorce agreement. Brian looked at me with a mocking smile and said, "Gemma chose me, even if it meant wa

In the end, the online user who posted the photo expressed their regret in the comment section. "I take it back! I can't believe the couple I used to envy turned out to be a pair of horrible people! I feel so bad for her brother! I mean, he could have been saved! I heard that his wife was abroad, and by the time she returned, he was already gone!"I sat at home watching it all play out, a smirk creeping onto my face. I thought this was nothing compared to everything I had suffered in my past life. I posted everything that had happened that day and kept them both on the trending list for three straight days.Gemma finally couldn't take it anymore and called me. "I'm not going to try to justify what I did, but did you have to go this far, Simon? Do you want to destroy me? Do you know how many people are trashing me online right now? "I can't even go home since Mom and Dad kicked me out. I got fired from my job as well. You're too ruthless, Simon!"I remained completely unfazed. "Y

Gemma made a beeline straight for me. "You're going to help me, right, Simon? I'm really short on money right now, so could you please spare me some? "I mean, you walked away with almost everything in the divorce, and now I've lost all the remaining money because of Brian. Can you lend me 30,000 dollars, Simon?"Upon hearing that, I furrowed my brow, then burst out laughing. "Do you really think you deserve my help, Gemma?" Gemma froze when she heard that.I raised my hand and slapped her hard across the face twice.Gemma froze on the spot, completely dumbfounded. She snapped out of it after quite some time and asked shamelessly, "Do you feel better now? If you are, please lend me the money, Simon!"I found the irony hilarious. "I was honestly glad your father was behind the wheel when the accident happened, Gemma; otherwise, I would have been the one blamed for Gerald getting hurt. You probably would've been the one asking for a divorce, making it easier for you to marry Brian
