I Watched My Wife Abandon Her Mother

A loud slam was heard from the corridor, followed by the familiar howl of my mother-in-law. I jolted and realized that I had been reborn! There was no time for me to rejoice as I ran straight to the door. My mother-in-law was convulsing, and there was a huge hole behind her head from slamming right into a corner of the stairs. Blood was gushing out of it."Hang on, Mom! I'll get someone to save you!"I took out my phone to call the ambulance, and I sent a message out to the local community, seeking help to get in touch with those who had the same blood type as my mother-in-law. While I was waiting for them to reply, my fingers slid down to a name on my phone—Rebecca Chilton.Her name evoked memories of my past lifetime when I fell down the stairs. I took a deep breath and deleted her name without hesitation. With great difficulty, I held my mother-in-law in my arms and shouted, "The ambulance is coming, Mom! Hold on! Don't fall asleep!" My fear finally subsided when the medical

I lost my balance and fell hard onto the ground. My waist slammed into a steel chair at the side, and it hurt so much that I broke out in a cold sweat.Rebecca suddenly looked a little worried when she saw the pain on my face. "What's wrong with you, Hayden?" When Simon noticed this, he suddenly went crazy. "This is all my fault. All I wanted was for Rebecca to bring me some medication to save my life because I was feeling terrible. I have no idea what I did wrong. All I want is to continue living. Why did you get so many people to put up this act, Hayden? Why do you want me dead?"I checked with my doctor on the way here, and he told me there isn't any patient here with cerebral haemorrhage. You just wanted us at the hospital so that Mrs. Chilton could yell at me for being the third party in your marriage, but the truth is, I only see Rebecca as my sister."Please let me off, Hayden! If you continue forcing me like this, I will die!"With that, Simon turned to run out the door.

I took my phone out to show them the surveillance footage I got from the hospital with a clear timestamp on it. "This is the time that I brought Mom to the hospital, and a phone record of me calling the ambulance. How can an orphan like Simon, who has no job and requires the help of another to pay for his living, know anything about the hospital's surgery schedule? He has no clearance to do that."As for you, what kind of relationship do you have with him for you to believe his words unconditionally?"Rebecca turned pale. She was about to say something when Simon went back to playing his old tricks by sobbing while covering his face. "It wasn't intentional, Rebecca! I had no idea that the doctor was so unreliable and did not even check Mrs. Chilton's surgery schedule properly. It's my fault for not being thorough about this!"But everyone makes mistakes. How can this be pinned on us? Oh, it hurts so much, I want to die. Please let me die…" Simon tried to slam his head into the w

I smiled with a cold look in my eye. "I've recently consulted several psychiatrists about your condition, and they told me that your symptoms do not really match depression. Can you truly tell us that your condition is correctly diagnosed?"Simon turned pale before I could finish, and I saw the panic in his eyes, but he still nodded stubbornly because Rebecca was present. "It's true that I was diagnosed with depression, Hayden. I know you've never liked me and always thought I'm faking it, but depression is a mental issue, and not a condition you can physically see. Rebecca has seen how I always have trouble eating and sleeping. I'm fine with you not believing me, but I would never pretend in front of her. Stop judging others with your despicable standards!" He lowered his head after that and started tearing up."I have been taking anti-depression medication that Rebecca bought for me daily. She confirmed the pills with the doctor, and they're legitimate. I have been trying so ha

The next time I heard about Rebecca and Simon was from the middle-aged lady staying downstairs.After texting Rebecca that day, she took my advice to investigate Simon by checking his purchase records and found that he bought oil. Simon initially denied everything, but when Rebecca insisted on reaching out to me to analyze the material I found, Simon broke and admitted to everything.Rebecca fell apart when she found out Simon snuck into our house to cover the stairs with oil because he wanted me dead so that he could become Rebecca's husband. Her eyes turned red as she roared while pushing Simon down the stairs to give him a taste of his own medicine.During their struggle, Rebecca fell down the stairs along with him, and the commotion alerted the neighbors enough to call the police. I heard that Simon was almost dying when the police arrived, and Rebecca lost their baby.Before Rebecca could be discharged from the hospital, she was arrested by the police for intent to harm anothe
