Chapter 6

Author: Lightning Bolt
Thinking back on it now, I suddenly found my past self to be such a joke.

Jonathan was momentarily rendered speechless, but he quickly recovered and tried to justify his actions. "But you went through special forces training before, didn't you? None of us was dehydrated, so I thought you were fine too. That's why I gave all the things you prepared to Maddy."

A bubble of furious laughter burst from my lips, which agitated my wounds and made them hurt.

Sebastian frowned before kicking Jonathan out without a hint of courtesy. "That's enough. Hurry up and leave. What's the point of saying all this nonsense? What she needs more now is rest!"

However, Jonathan merely glared at Sebastian. "You're just a doctor. What right do you have to chase me out? I'm her husband! What's wrong with me talking to my wife?"

Hearing that, I swiftly wrote in the notebook, "No, we're not husband and wife anymore. You said you wanted to divorce me, right? I agree."

Then, I turned to look at Sebastian. "Dr.

  • Desert Dehydration: My Husband Swapped My Electrolytes for Urine   Chapter 9

    My dream?A few seconds later, I finally remembered something that happened years ago. At the time, he was tending to my wounds, and in a bid to distract me, he had asked what I wanted to do after retiring from the military.I had replied that I wanted to continue contributing to the country.Joining expedition teams to survey new resources was technically considered contributing to the country, no?Luckily, he hadn't called me out for trying to sound cool then.…Even though I was in the hospital, as the victim of the incident, I still had to cooperate with the investigation. The police came to take my statement before updating me on Jonathan and Madison's situation.Apparently, after they were taken to the police station, they turned on each other.Madison had indeed set Jonathan up, all because he refused to divorce me to be with her. Hence, in order to gain the most benefits out of this situation, she began to talk badly about me all the time, trying to brainwash Jonathan i

    Sebastian's smile took on a mocking note as he added, "The uniform failed to perform as hoped, but it did record some interesting things."In an instant, Jonathan and Madison were left utterly dumbfounded, not at all expecting that I would have evidence.I wrote on the notebook, "I'll be handing all that over to the police later."Realizing that there was no turning back now, Madison began screaming at me hysterically, "You! You must have deliberately set us up! Jon was right! Living with someone like you is like walking on eggshells all the time! Just one moment of carelessness, and you slap a murder charge on us!"Do you have no conscience? How could you send Jon to prison when he's done so much for you? Do you know what he told me? He would've divorced you long ago if it weren't for the fact that he was worried about having to give you half his assets. That, and that he might be unfairly targeted because of your good relationship with Mr. Potter!"Those words had Jonathan panic

    Jonathan latched onto Adrian, who happened to be closest to him. With tears streaming down his face, he yelled, "Mr. Potter, I can't go to jail! If I do, my life will be over! I went on a lot of survey expeditions too, didn't I? You can't just refuse to give me a chance over one single mistake!"Adrian was so infuriated that I could almost see steam coming out of his ears. "Those expeditions you went on were technically completed by Samantha; you were just there for the ride and got to share in the glory. Did you seriously think you were accomplished because of that?"If it weren't for the fact that you were Samantha's husband, I wouldn't have kept one eye closed over this matter. Besides, the punishment for what you did isn't up to me anymore."Jonathan wailed, "But I truly didn't want to kill Samantha! I just misunderstood her situation and wrongly assumed that she wasn't in any danger. That's why I gave the supplies that could've saved her to the other team members."The anger o

    Feeling at ease, I finally let sleep take me.When I next awoke, I was already in the hospital. Sebastian Inkerton, a doctor from the medical team, was checking my vital signs. Upon seeing that I had woken up, he breathed a sigh of relief. "You're finally awake. You know, when our rescue team arrived, and I saw your condition, I was utterly dumbfounded. I think I probably would've felt guilty for the rest of my life if I had failed to save you."I subconsciously opened my mouth to thank him, but he hurriedly raised a hand to stop me."Don't speak. Your throat is too badly injured, so you can forget about talking for the time being. Just rest. As for your wrist, we've set the broken bones, but you might suffer from some aftereffects even after recovering."He paused briefly to stare at me with a complex look in his eyes. Then, he handed me a notebook and a pen. "Your head of department has been anxiously waiting for you to wake up. I think he has something to discuss with you. U

    I was slowly sinking into the darkness, no longer able to see anything clearly. All the pain coursing through me had also gone numb, and it felt as though I was falling into an abyss.Madison's voice, dripping with fake concern, reached my ears. It sounded muffled, as though coming through a wall of dense fog."Sam! What's happening to you?"By then, I was unable to respond anymore.She continued worriedly, "She left a lot of blood here. What if the wild animals smell it and attack us? Even though Sam doesn't like me, I still can't bear to watch her die."How about this? Let's dig a hole and bury Sam along with the bloodied sand. That should cover up the scent of blood."Everyone instantly agreed with her suggestion. Hence, they grabbed shovels from the SUV and dug out a hole beside me in no time. Following that, they kicked me into the hole.Sand filled my nose and mouth, causing me to suffocate.Madison wasn't trying to cover the smell of blood—she wanted to bury me alive.M
