Rachel’s POV)

The air felt heavy, too heavy to breathe. My eyes fluttered open slowly, my body weak, my mind still replaying the image that had burned itself deep into my soul Dave and Melissa… together, under the same sheet. My chest tightened as if something sharp was pressing against my heart. For a moment, I couldn’t move.

“Rachel, thank God you’re awake.” Josh’s voice broke through the fog. He looked anxious, his shirt wrinkled, his eyes worried. “You fainted back there. I had to carry y

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 77 — The News She Never Expected

    Rachel’s POVAfter the call with Dave ended, I remained on the edge of the bed for several minutes, staring at my phone while the last words he had said continued playing inside my head, but I refused to let them ruin the peace. I had finally found because I had spent too many nights crying over that man and too many mornings waking up with a broken heart, so I wiped the tears from my face and turned toward the two little girls who were sitting together on the bed, watching me with innocent eyes. “Girls, finish your food because we are going out today,” I said, forcing a smile.“Where are we going, Mommy?” the younger one asked excitedly.I laughed softly because I knew I had already lost the battle with that name.“I told you not to call me Mommy, but you keep doing it anyway,” I said.She smiled mischievously. “Because you are like our mommy,” she replied.Her sister immediately nodded. “Yes, you take care of us, you buy us food, you let us sleep in your be

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 76 — The Video He sent

    Rachel’s POVI woke up with a strange heaviness in my chest, the kind of feeling that stayed with me even before I opened my eyes, and for a few seconds I simply stared at the ceiling while trying to remember where I was and why the room felt so unfamiliar, but then I remembered i was on vacation, and most importantly, the two little girls sleeping peacefully in the other room, and somehow the thought of them made the heaviness in my chest disappear for a moment. I sat up slowly, rubbed my face with both hands, and glanced toward the bed where the girls were still sleeping, their little bodies curled together beneath the blanket as though they had been afraid to separate even in their sleep, and I smiled despite myself because there was something innocent about them that made me want to protect them from every terrible thing in the world. I quietly got out of bed, washed my face, brushed my teeth, and headed into the bathroom for a quick shower before picking up my bag and

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 75—The Two Little Girls

    Rachel’s POV“Don’t call me Mommy, sweetheart, because I’m not your mother,” I said gently, even though something inside my chest had already begun to ache at the way the little girl was looking at me.She lowered her eyes immediately, and the smile that had been on her lips disappeared so quickly that I almost wished I had kept quiet. “But our mommy died when we were born,” she whispered, her tiny voice trembling as she spoke, while her sister moved closer to her and wrapped both hands around her arm. “We never knew her, and our daddy only comes sometimes, so we don’t really know where he is now because he came this time and then he left again, and nobody told us where he was going.” I stared at them, unable to find the right words, because there was something terribly painful about hearing a child speak about losing her mother as if she had already learned to accept the emptiness, even though I could see from her eyes that she had never truly accepted it at all.

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   chapter 74

    Rachel’s POVI dropped the phone on the bed and remained there for several minutes, staring at the ceiling while the weight in my chest refused to disappear, because no matter how many times I told myself that I was done with Dave, no matter how many times I reminded myself of everything he had done to me, the memories still had a way of crawling back into my mind whenever the room became quiet enough for me to hear my own thoughts. I turned onto my side and pulled the blanket over myself, hoping sleep would come quickly and rescue me from the storm inside my head, but just when I was beginning to close my eyes, my phone started ringing again, and when I looked at the screen and saw that it was my mother calling, I wiped the tears that had gathered beneath my eyes before answering because I knew she would immediately hear something in my voice if I allowed myself to sound as broken as I truly felt. “Hello, Mom,” I said softly. “Baby girl, how did the conference go?” my m

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 73: The Last Thread

    Rachel’s POV The moment I felt Josh’s arms wrap around me from behind, my entire body went rigid, and for one terrifying second I could not understand what was happening because I had spent the entire day trying to clear my mind, trying to convince myself that I had finally escaped the chaos waiting for me back home, only to feel the same kind of unwanted familiarity invading my space again. I turned around sharply and shoved him away with every ounce of strength I had, my chest rising and falling as anger flooded through me. “What the hell do you think you are doing?” I demanded, my voice shaking with fury. Josh barely moved, and instead of looking ashamed, he smiled at me with that same arrogant expression that had once made me question whether there was ever a genuine side to him. “Oh, so you still have that fire in you,” he said, rubbing his cheek as though my slap had amused him rather than offended him. I stared at him in disbelief, wondering how someone could be so sha

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 72

    Rachel’s POVBy the time I arrived at the airport, I had already made up my mind that I was not going to look back, because if I allowed myself to think about everything I had left behind, I knew my heart would become heavy again and I would start questioning whether leaving my children, even temporarily, was the right thing to do, but deep inside me I knew that I needed those two months more than I had ever needed anything in my life, because I was exhausted from constantly being pulled between people who claimed to love me and people who had spent years finding new ways to hurt meI stepped out of the car with my handbag over my shoulder while one of the airport attendants came forward to help with my luggage, and for a moment I simply stood there looking at the aircraft waiting ahead of me, feeling a strange mixture of nervousness and excitement because this was not just another business trip, this was the first time I was deliberately choosing distance from everything that had bee
