No Place for Me in This Marriage Chapter 9
As I took in Edwin's pained expression, I retorted coolly, "Use what against you? Don't sound so wounded now. I was just taking back the things that belonged to me, in the first place."The board of directors of Reeves Corp flanked me as I walked onto the stage with tears in my eyes as Edwin's legal wife."As one of the founders of this company, I apologize for my husband's moral misconduct. The board of directors has convened for a brief discussion, and we've decided to dismiss Edwin Reeves from the company. After all, we wish to take responsibility for every shareholder who has placed their faith in us."After wiping away my tears, I turned to look at Jenna."As for this murderer, I shall hand her over to the authorities."Ironically enough, Edwin's most successful moment in life became his darkest moment, too. Having gone through a plethora of extreme emotions after receiving one blow after the other, he ended up crumpling to the floor in a dead faint.Meanwhile, Jenna, who ke

But it was too late.Jenna cackled like a madwoman while staring me in the eye. "The truth is, there was still hope for your child when you were sent to the hospital. But Mom claimed that you'd fight for everything with me if you ever had a child of your own, so she taught me to fake my illness just so I could lure Edwin away from you."By the time he remembered your plight and wanted to sign the surgical consent form, your child had already died in your womb."The atmosphere in the ward became awfully silent. Both Mom and Edwin froze, no longer having the courage to even glance at me.Meanwhile, Jenna kept staring at me unblinkingly. I knew that she was waiting for me to lose my marbles. She wanted me to revert to the hysterical lunatic so that she could continue acting like the kind-hearted victim who was a pushover in the eyes of the others.But this time, she'd be disappointed by the outcome.I just rubbed my ears in irritation before nuzzling into Edwin's arms, my expression

Before Edwin could get a single word out, Mom, who had been lingering outside the ward without the intention to leave, rushed back in and smacked Jenna's phone out of her hand.Her body shook with rage as she stared at Jenna, as though it was her first time seeing the latter's true colors."Jenna Shepherd, Rey is your actual sister! I lent you a helping hand when you asked for my help in winning Edwin back from Reyna! I also helped you in registering your name on Edwin's assets! "You already have everything you want in life, Jenna! Why do you still want to kill Rey after all this time?"At that point, Jenna turned a deaf ear to anyone who tried to talk sense into her. She picked up her phone, having decided to involve Mom in this scandal too."Since you're biased toward Reyna as well, you shall get featured on the live stream, too! To think that the same woman who had streamed her own suicide back then suddenly turned up alive again and decided to take the side of Reyna Shepherd,

Andy Reeves was the unborn child whom I had miscarried when I caught Edwin cheating on me. If he had lived and grown up safely, he'd be two years old right now.Edwin's hands began trembling uncontrollably. He could feel blood rising in his throat, too. But still, he suppressed all of his emotions and began coaxing me gently.He said, "Yes, yes. You're Andy. I… I got too anxious just now, so I called you by the wrong name."Mom began tearing up immediately. Her back grew hunched at that moment, as though she had aged ten years in just a second.She kept her voice low, her expression one of heartbreak."Rey, Andy has been dead for two years. You can't just trap yourself in the past forever."Her words were like a trigger for me that made me freeze up. Instantly, I clutched my head and began rolling around on my bed in pain. Soon, cold sweat rained down my forehead.As I stared at the fruit knife on the nightstand, I began mumbling under my breath like a lunatic."Andy is dead… I

Edwin jolted awake from a nightmare. In that nightmare, he couldn't reach me no matter how hard he tried. All he could do was scream at me in despair."Don't jump, Reyna! Please, I'm begging you!"He was practically shouting as he woke up from his nightmare. Cold sweat kept rolling down his back for some reason.The wound he had sustained on his abdomen was already torn apart at that time. Blood kept oozing out of the torn stitches and through the bandages.Poor Edwin was in so much pain that his complexion was practically as white as a sheet. Yet, he kept mumbling my name under his breath the whole time.After Jenna instructed the doctor to patch Edwin up, she shot him an aggrieved look."Look at me closely, Edwin. I'm Jenna, not Reyna."Mom grumbled in addition, "Edwin, you should know that Jen is still pregnant with your child. So, why did you keep holding onto that traitorous bitch even though she was the one who made you fall off the building?"However, Edwin kept clutch

My mind buzzed loudly at the conversation.I dialed Edwin's number right away, yet all I could hear was Jenna's tinkling laughter."If you want to see Andy's remains again, you'd better get your ass to the hospital as soon as you can, Reyna. If you're late even by a second, I'll flush them down the toilet."I dared not waste any time. Soon, I reached the hospital in record time.As soon as I opened the door to Jenna's ward, I saw Edwin angrily hurl his phone at me."Reyna Shepherd! Look at what you've done!"The phone collided against my forehead, leaving me with a fresh wound. Even though Edwin spotted the blood trickling down my face, he averted his gaze stiffly. All that was left in his eyes was sympathy and affection for his darling Jenna.At the moment, Jenna was crying so much that her eyes were all red and puffy. When she saw me, she shrieked at the top of her lungs and sank to her knees in front of me, her hands still clutching her head in despair."I'm so sorry, Reyna!
