My Wife Pranked Me With Her Severed Hand Chapter 11
Janice's expression twisted in rage. Already in the throes of withdrawal, she was a bundle of nerves, and my words acted like a match tossed into a powder keg.I turned and walked away.By the time I reached the elevator, the sound of breaking glass echoed down the hallway behind me.The drugs were theirs to begin with. Their demises were of their own making.I had simply given them a gentle nudge.…Three days later, the police released their official statement.Alayna's missing person case was closed. Her remains had been recovered from an abandoned factory in the suburbs. The forensic report confirmed it was a homicide.Because both prime suspects, Ray and Janice, were dead, the criminal case was legally dismissed.The briefing was concise.It simply stated that Ray had gotten into an argument with Alayna over their relationship and accidentally killed her. He then conspired with Janice to dispose of the body and frame me.Later, a dispute over splitting their assets trig

The recording cut off abruptly.The same heavy, suffocating silence that had filled the interrogation room now blanked the bedroom around us.I stood out on the balcony, watching the police lights flicker against the pavement below.Alayna's voice kept echoing in my ears. "You know how he is. He works from home all day. He has no social life and no friends. He can't survive without me."So that was who I was to her.All those years of tenderness, playful banter, and endless devotion over our eight-year marriage were all an act."Charlie," Ethan called out softly.I turned around, my face entirely blank."There's another recording on Ray's phone." He tapped the screen again.This time, it was Ray and a different woman. Her voice was raspy, carrying a distinct southern drawl."Everything is taken care of. He didn't suspect a thing."Ray answered, "Janice, are you sure he didn't notice?"Janice.My eyes narrowed."Relax. I know Alayna's face better than anyone. People have b

"How did he die?" I asked.The tech officer shook his head. "Forensics is still processing the scene, but initial signs point to homicide. The estimated time of death is four to five days ago."Four to five days ago.That meant late March or early April. Right around the time Alayna supposedly left for her trip and right when the impostor showed up at my apartment."Captain Newman wants me to bring you over to identify something. Also, they tracked down the guest who registered for Room 308 at the budget hotel.""Who was it?""Janice Watson. Alayna's sister."Janice.The name struck my brain like a bolt of lightning.Alayna did have a sister, three years her junior. I had only met her twice, back at our wedding. I heard she had moved down south years ago, fell into drug addiction, and the family had cut ties with her long ago.Why on earth was she here?20 minutes later, the police cruiser pulled up outside Westwood Serenity Residences.Ray's apartment was on the sixth floo

My heart hammered violently against my ribs.Ray Stevenson. I had never heard this name in my life.Naomi unlocked her phone, pulled up a photograph, and slid it over to me. "Do you recognize him?"The picture showed a young man with a mullet and a gentle, clean-cut face. He had a strikingly handsome smile.I shook my head, but my hands wouldn't stop shaking.Ethan looked at me, softening his voice a fraction. "Charlie, what I'm about to say is going to be difficult to hear, but you need to brace yourself. Based on the evidence we've gathered so far, it is highly probable that Alayna was having an extramarital affair. This man, Ray, was her lover."I opened my mouth, but my throat felt completely blocked.An affair. A lover.The words coming from Ethan hit me, but it felt like they were passing through a layer of something, as if they never fully reached me.It didn't make sense. None of it made sense.We had been married for eight years.This was the woman who squeezed toot

My face was entirely bloodless, and my eyes were ringed with a bright red. I looked like a ghost.But the real ghost was currently hiding out there in the dark.It didn't take long for the tech team to bring back a second report."The security footage was definitely tampered with," the tech officer, Kevin Clark, said as he pointed to the monitor.On the screen, the alleyway outside my building was completely empty, and the timestamp was ticking along steadily."On the surface, it looks seamless. But we analyzed the underlying metadata. The timestamp is a virtual stream overlaid after the fact, and the source file shows clear signs of frame-rate rewriting.""Which means…" Ethan kept his eyes glued to the monitor."This video showing that nobody entered or left was spliced in over the original footage.""Exactly. What's more, we traced the server logs," Kevin added, his fingers flying across his keyboard. "Between 7:00 pm and 10:00 pm on April 1st, there was an anomalous remote a

"The hand belongs to… Alayna?"Ethan's words felt like a sudden crack of thunder striking me right in the skull. My ears rang violently, and the overhead lights blurred into a blinding haze.Then, another thought pierced my mind like an icicle.That hand had been brutally hacked off. How much agony must Alayna have been in?I looked down at my own hands, and a sudden memory flashed of the raw streak of red on the impostor's arm.Where did that scratch come from?My stomach churned violently. I covered my mouth, bent over, and began to dry-heave.Tears and sweat slicked my face as I sat there curled up, shivering uncontrollably.Ethan handed me a cup of warm water with a look of genuine pity in his eyes.I forced my head up, knowing I must look completely pathetic. "Then… what about my wife? Has she been… murdered? And who… who was the person on the phone just now?"Ethan didn't answer right away. He motioned for his partner to stay by my side, then got up and walked out while

My name was Charlie Collins. I had been married for eight years and had always worked from home as a freelancer.I rarely went out, mostly relying on online design gigs to bring in an income. My wife, Alayna Watson, was pretty much my only connection to the outside world.But my life was far from

"Officer Newman, you've got to be kidding me, right?" I asked.Ethan didn't say a word, just kept his piercing gaze fixed on me. His stare sent a freezing shiver straight down my spine."Charlie, I know this is incredibly hard to process right now, but the cameras don't lie."He turned his comput

The moment I heard Alayna's voice, my tears cascaded down. My hands were still shaking, but the crushing weight on my chest suddenly vanished.Thank God. Alayna wasn't a killer.But just as I let out a breath of relief, I heard her speak to the officer on the line. "I've been away on this business

It was a severed hand.Cleanly cut at the wrist, the flesh had turned a bruised, blackish-purple, and fluid was oozing from the edges.It looked like maggots were already writhing around the wound. The horrific stench and the dark fluid were all coming from this.My mind went totally blank, and w
