My Husband Went Insane After Learning the Truth of My Death

The next day, Calvin showed up like he said he would. He had Jenna with him—the woman who'd taken everything from me.But the ward was empty. The bed was made, and all the clothes were packed. It was like no one had ever been there. He asked the caregiver, but she had no idea where Margaret had gone.Calvin quickly tracked her down using his phone's GPS and found her on the street. She was dragging her weak body, holding onto a worn-out bag, trying to pin something to a public bulletin board.He stepped up to take a look—it was a notice about searching for a dead body. He let out a frustrated laugh and pulled Margaret away. "Impressive acting, Mom. A notice for a dead body? You've really lost it."Margaret gripped the flyer, her hand shaking. "Clare's missing. I need to find her body. She'll be scared if I'm not there with her.""For what? She was cold enough to let you die in the streets, and you're still searching for her? I can't believe she came up with all kinds of schemes ju

Margaret was hauled into the police station.Like Calvin said, he stopped covering her medical bills and living expenses. Her treatment was cut off. He even drained the bank card I had given her, the one in my name.Calvin left Margaret with no way out and even sent her a text that said, "If I don't make you feel the heat, you won't know who's really in charge of this family."Margaret was temporarily detained by the police for causing a disturbance. With Calvin pulling the strings, the guards refused to let her go, even after a long wait.Meanwhile, he watched Jenna change in the dressing room, his eyes full of affection. "Jenna, you're truly my queen."Calvin and Jenna met in college, and he fell for her the moment he saw her. But after graduation, Jenna left without a second thought to study abroad, ending things with him out of the blue.Back then, Margaret, who had supported me through school since I was little, wanted to set me up with Calvin. She often invited me over to t

I forced a smile, but it felt more like a grimace. Would Calvin regret what he'd done once he learned the truth?"Clare, I couldn't protect you, but I'll be with you soon. Don't be scared…" Margaret was crying so much that she could barely keep herself upright.She watched helplessly as they drilled into my casket, unable to do a thing. Crushed by grief, she coughed up blood. The sight of the red stain on the floor was unsettling.Calvin quickly regained his composure and sneered. "First a photo of her dead, now a casket? What's next? Tell Clarissa that even if I have to drag her up from the depths of hell, I'll get her myself!"He looked at the paper with a cold gaze and scoffed. "A death certificate?"Calvin ripped it apart and scattered the pieces into the air, where they drifted down like withered leaves.I let out a bitter laugh. Just like I thought, he never believed me from the start.Just then, his subordinate dashed over urgently. "Bad news, Mr. Yale! You need to get to

Calvin and I tied the knot just as his career was starting to take off. But right around that time, Bernard was diagnosed with lung cancer.The Yale family's fortune crashed overnight, and Calvin had just sunk a huge chunk of money into his fashion studio, leaving nothing for Bernard's medical bills.Calvin had always been a devoted son. He was thinking about selling the studio, but Bernard laid into him."If you even consider selling it, I might as well cut you out for good! I didn't work hard to put you through school just for you to quit now. What's my life worth as an old man? Don't you dare mess with your future!"Still, Calvin secretly sold his overseas studio and wired the money into Bernard's account.By the time Calvin returned, Bernard's illness had taken a brutal toll on him. Not wanting to burden anyone, Bernard pulled out his own breathing tubes.Before he passed, he transferred that money to me, and Calvin hated me ever since. Even without any proof, it was clear hi
