My Husband Chose His First Love While His Family Died Chapter 10
“Lily, what did you mean by that?“How do you know what happened before? Did you come back too?”I ignored his shouting and walked out of the police station.I’d said it on purpose.From the first day I came back, Ryan’s attitude toward our daughter had made me suspicious.The way he looked at her was especially telling.Before, he’d merely been indifferent. This time, he looked as though he wanted to kill her on the spot.And Ryan had always been close to Sophie. If he’d truly known his family had been in a serious accident, he never would’ve fired Derek and left me with no way to help them.There was only one explanation.Serena had either told him I was the one in the car or claimed it was only a minor accident.After blaming me for Serena’s death in our previous life, Ryan had hated me enough to believe anything she said.But once he realized Serena hadn’t just tried to kill me, but had also knowingly sacrificed his family, he finally snapped.Only Aunt Helen and I atte

Once the funeral was over tomorrow, Ryan and I would finalize our divorce.The house was legally mine, but knowing Serena had been inside made me sick.I’d already had someone purchase another property for me, and it would be ready for us to move into soon.When the funeral home called, I assumed they had the wrong number.“Miss Lewis, your husband refuses to leave the funeral home. Our policy doesn’t allow anyone to remain here overnight.“Would you please come and talk to him?”I didn’t want to see Ryan, so I called Derek instead.An hour later, he brought Ryan home, completely wasted.“I’m sorry, Lily. I tried to take him to a hotel, but he refused to go and kept causing a scene. Someone called the police, so I had no choice but to bring him here.“Don’t worry. I’ll stay with him downstairs tonight. I won’t let him come upstairs.”After everything that had happened, Derek no longer felt the same brotherly loyalty toward Ryan.He was only helping now because I’d asked him

“How did you know there was something wrong with the brake lines?”Serena collapsed onto the floor.During the two days I spent recovering in the hospital, my phone never stopped ringing.My lawyer kept me updated on the investigation.At first, Serena refused to say a word. She hired the best attorney she could find and left everything to him.Her plan had seemed foolproof.She had never personally gone near the car, so she believed she could easily clear her name.And she’d only met the man who tampered with it once at a bar.That alone was hardly direct evidence.What she hadn’t expected was for the man, who claimed he’d already fled the country, to be arrested at the border.He’d seen the news and learned how many people had died because of him.The guilt and fear broke him.The moment he sat down in the interrogation room, he confessed to everything.“She gave me a million dollars that night and told me to cut the brake lines. She said the car belonged to a woman name

Aunt Helen answered almost immediately.“Ryan, you finally picked up. Come to the Eastside Funeral Home. There’s still time to see them one last time. They’re…”Her voice broke several times.“It was horrible. Why did this have to happen to them?”Ryan understood every word she said.But put together, none of them made any sense.“Aunt Helen, what are you talking about? Why would my parents be at a funeral home? They were perfectly fine yesterday.“Did you have another fight with Mom?”Aunt Helen screamed into the phone.“I wish your mother and I had only fought! I wish I’d been the one in that accident! Sophie was only eighteen. Her life had barely begun!”Aunt Helen had never married and had always treated Sophie like her own daughter.She would never joke about something happening to her.Ryan finally began to panic.After hanging up, he called Derek.“Why did you call me last night?”Hatred filled Derek’s voice.“You have the nerve to ask? While you were in bed with

Serena looked at me with open contempt, as though I were garbage.I finally managed to wrench myself free from Ryan’s grip.Air rushed painfully into my lungs, and my coughing echoed through the second floor.Suddenly, a violent cramp tore through my abdomen.Something warm trickled down my thighs.Clutching my stomach, I turned toward my daughter’s room.“Come to the funeral or don’t. It’s your choice.”I’d barely taken two steps when Serena jumped off the bed and blocked my way.“Wait!“Why does this agreement say Ryan has to walk away with nothing?”My stomach was already in agony. When she abruptly yanked my arm, the pain became so intense that I collapsed onto the floor.Cold sweat drenched my entire body.“Let go.”My voice was weak.I said it twice, but she ignored me.Serena clung tightly to my wrist.“Explain what this means, or I’ll tear it up!”Ryan finally picked up the agreement and read the terms carefully.“Both families’ companies, shares, properties,

The guilt on Ryan’s face vanished, replaced by fury.He raised his hand as if to slap me.“Have you lost your mind? How dare you say something like that about my parents?”I didn’t flinch.I simply asked him again.Before he could answer, Serena cut in.“Ryan, Miss Lewis must be upset because you spent my birthday with me yesterday. This is my fault. I should apologize to her.”She turned to me.“I’m sorry. Turning thirty was a big deal to me, and there was a terrible storm last night. I was injured, so Ryan had to stay with me.”She hurried toward me and reached for my hand.I stepped away without even touching her, but she suddenly threw herself backward.“Miss Lewis, why did you push me?”Ryan shot me a vicious glare and shoved past me to help Serena.I was already weak and still holding my daughter. The force nearly sent me tumbling down the stairs.Thankfully, the nanny who had come home with me caught me in time.She took my daughter and carried her to the bedroom.
