When the criminal tortured me to death, I was three-month pregnant. But my husband Mark - the city's most prominent detective - was at the hospital with his first love Emma, accompanying her for her medical checkup. Three days ago, he demanded me to donate my kidney to Emma. When I refused, telling him I was two months pregnant with our child, his eyes had turned cold. "Stop lying," he had snarled. "You're just being selfish, trying to let Emma die." He pulled over on the dark highway. "Get out," he ordered. "Walk home since you're so heartless. " I stood there in the darkness and was kidnapped by the vengeful criminal, whom Mark had once imprisoned. He cut out my tongue. With cruel satisfaction, he used my phone to call my husband. Mark's response was brief and cold: "Whatever it is, Emma's medical checkup is more important! She needs me right now." The criminal let out a dark chuckle. "Well, well... Seems like the great detective values his ex's life more than his current wife's." When Mark arrived at the crime scene hours later, he was horrified by the brutality inflicted on the corpse. He angrily condemned the murderer for treating a pregnant woman so cruelly But he didn't recognize that the mutilated body before him was his own wife - me.

Thank goodness he has Emma to comfort him.""Such a sweet woman, still getting her kidney treatments despite all this drama."Emma sat in her hospital bed, basking in the sympathy.

Mark staggered into the morgue, his colleague's supportive grip the only thing keeping him upright. His face had gone ashen, matching the cold walls around him.Looking at my mutilated body, a low growl escaped his throat. It was the sound of a man whose world had just shattered.I watched him curiously. Why did he seem so pained?Shouldn't my death be what he had secretly wished for? After all, I was the obstacle between him and his precious Emma.His hand traced the long scar on my back - the one I got pushing him out of that car's path. His fingers trembled."Alice," his voice cracked, thick with tears. "How did it end up like this?""When we first got married, you were so gentle, so loving. Remember how you used to make me soup when my stomach acted up? You swore you'd always take care of me, and I... I promised to cherish you."He wiped roughly at his eyes, his badge catching the harsh morgue lights."What changed? Was it Emma? Was it me?" His tears fell onto my cold skin. "Did I

Mark's face drained of color as he struggled to maintain composure. "It must be a coincidence. Alice is probably somewhere laughing at us right now.""Ma'am, are you in league with my wife? Playing games with the police is a serious offense."Suddenly, his phone rang. He answered with trembling hands. "Lab results?"The forensic tech's voice was urgent. "Detective, we have the DNA results for the victim."The senior detective, eyes glistening, touched Mark's shoulder. "Head back to the station. We'll handle things here."But Mark seemed not to hear, his gloved hand touching the dried blood on the floor. "How much pain was she in?"Some of the younger officers had started crying quietly.Mark stumbled back to his car, looking lost.Watching his dazed expression, my heart twisted painfully.From our wedding day until my death, he'd never once called me "love" or "dear" - terms he used freely with Emma.At the station, the lab tech handed him the report with pitying eyes."I'm sorry, Dete
