Her First Love Killed Me, but I Owe an Apology? Chapter 10
Steven, covered in Joanne's blood, kicked her to the ground in disgust. "Who are you to call me an animal? You knew my injuries weren't serious, yet you deliberately kept all the medical staff by my side. Wasn't that your way of killing Charles so you could be with me?"Joanne had known everything all along. She had simply pretended not to.Perhaps, deep down, she had even hoped that my death would clear the way. Then she could be with Steven openly, without guilt or restraint.Having those thoughts exposed on the spot left her humiliated and panicked."I-I…" she stammered.The startled looks of the people around him only fueled Steven's ego.He knew he had no way out, so there was no reason to spare Joanne. "Oh, and one more thing—Charles never hurt me. I set him up every time. And you, you stupid woman, believed every word I said. You blamed your own husband without ever doubting me."Joanne's face drained of color, and her lips trembled in terror. "Stop talking…"But Steven

Before Steven went looking for Joanne, he had been staying in a small town.After getting the young woman pregnant, he refused to take responsibility and repeatedly coerced her into having an abortion.The last time, she couldn't take it anymore and took her own life.When the young woman's grandfather learned the truth, he sought justice for his granddaughter. But Steven beat him to death.In an instant, Joanne felt her world crumble.After the police laid out the whole sequence of Steven's crimes, she completely lost control."That's not the truth! Steven could never be that kind of person!" she yelled.But it was the truth. The police then placed forensic reports and photos of a knife in front of her. "Additionally, this is the forensic conclusion. Charles Jenkins was stabbed seven times with this knife. The DNA on the handle belongs to Steven."I drifted over and glanced at it. The results had been ready even before Frank and Joanne went to court.Frank simply didn't pre

When Steven showed up again, he took Joanne to a bar.I hovered unseen, watching the man she trusted with all her heart pour white powder into her drink.Almost every day, Steven brought Joanne to bars to drink.On the rare occasion they didn't go, Joanne would feel unbearable withdrawal symptoms.She trembled as she grabbed Steven's hand. She had already realized something was wrong with her. "Steven, I don't feel well. Take me to the hospital."Steven shed his weak facade. He flung her hand away and said coldly, "What's the point of going to the hospital? Jo, what you need is heroin. But you're out of money."It took Joanne a moment to react. "Heroin? Have you been giving me drugs? Steven, are you being threatened by someone?"Her first instinct wasn't to question him, but to assume he was being forced to do it.If it were me putting heroin in her drink, she'd never have tried to defend me. She would've wanted me dead.Steven laughed at her stupidity and put on an exaggerate

Frank truly lived up to being my best friend. After helping arrange my burial, he immediately filed a civil lawsuit against Joanne and Steven for my wrongful death.But the evidence was barely there. With Joanne deliberately hiding facts and slandering me, plus the lawyer's brainless defense, Frank lost the case.When it was over, Frank stopped Joanne outside the courtroom. His voice cracked as he roared, "Joanne, you're the reason Charles is dead! Where's your conscience? Aren't you afraid he'll haunt you in your dreams?"Joanne couldn't have cared less. "He got himself killed. Why should I take the blame?"Frank was so angry that he wanted to punch her, but security held him back. His entire face flushed red with rage and helplessness. "Joanne, Charles only clashed with those people because of you!"The people he was talking about were the family members of a patient who had once gotten violent due to a hospital dispute and tried to kill Joanne.I was the one who risked my life

Joanne was fired.The police tried to take Steven away to investigate my death, but Joanne stopped them. She insisted he was innocent.Without concrete evidence, the police could only take their statements and let them go.Steven said aggrievedly, "Jo, will I be okay? I really didn't know Charles was already so badly injured before he came looking for me."Joanne immediately came up with an excuse on Steven's behalf. "He must've offended someone somewhere. Even in death, he still causes trouble."Within days, Joanne had accepted the fact that I was dead. She didn't shed a single tear. It was as if the one who died wasn't her husband, but a stranger.Joanne comforted Steven, saying, "Don't worry. I'll have my mom hire the best lawyer to clear our names."To put his mind at ease, she called her mother, Susan Brown, on the spot."Mom, I'm in a tough spot. Help me find a lawyer."Instead of concern, Joanne was met with fury."Joanne, how dare you call me? You got Charles killed f

The medical examiner took out the tools and walked up to my body. She first used a pair of scissors to cut open my clothes, then switched to a small scalpel to make an incision in my chest.Joanne suddenly said, "Charles, stop messing around! How could you play the victim after injuring Steven? I'm warning you one last time. If you don't get up now, you'll be cut open!"Obviously, I gave no response.Joanne inexplicably began to panic. She pushed my leg and felt only coldness beneath her hand—I didn't have the temperature of a living person.She opened her mouth, unable to speak for a moment. When she finally did, her voice trembled. "C-Charles, if your goal is to soften me up, you're doing a convincing job."The medical examiner glanced at her and calmly cut my chest open.I felt no pain at all as my body was dissected.Joanne watched helplessly as the medical examiner performed the autopsy on me.I had already lost most of my blood, so when my body was cut open again, there w
