Rachel’s POV

The lights suddenly went out.

Darkness swallowed the entire hall, and a few surprised gasps echoed around me. The music died, leaving only the voice of the MC breaking through the black haze.

> “Everyone, hold the hand of the person beside you!”

Instinctively, I reached out my fingers brushed against someone’s hand. It was cold. Colder than I remembered.

“Dave?” I whispered.

He nodded, his grip firm but silent. Something about the stillness in his touch felt… different." But before

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 70

    Rachel’s POVI drove straight to the shopping mall after leaving Dave behind, and although my hands were still trembling slightly from everything that had happened, I kept my eyes on the road and refused to look back because I knew that if I allowed myself to think about his face, the desperation in his voice, or the way he had stood there watching me drive away, my heart might betray me again.I had spent enough time crying over him. l had spent enough time trying to understand why the man I loved had done the things he did, and right now, I did not want another explanation, another apology, or another desperate promise that things would somehow become different. When I finally arrived at the mall, I parked my car and stepped out, taking a deep breath before walking inside. The place was crowded, filled with people moving from one store to another, couples holding hands, mothers walking behind their children, young girls laughing together, and shoppers carrying bags filled

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 69

    Rachel’s POVMy mother’s body went limp before my eyes, and for a moment I could not understand what I was seeing because everything had happened so quickly. One second she had been standing there listening to Nathan tell my father the truth about Dave, and the next her eyes rolled back and her body collapsed onto the floor, making my heart stop as I screamed her name and rushed toward her.“Mom!”My father moved faster than I had ever seen him move, catching her before her head could hit the floor and lowering her carefully onto the sofa while I stood there shaking, tears running freely down my face as I held one of the twins against my chest.“Call the doctor,” I cried, my voice breaking. “Dad, please, call the doctor.” “I’m calling him now, baby girl,” he said, already pulling his phone from his pocket with trembling fingers. “Just stay calm, your mother is going to be fine.” I wanted to believe him, I desperately wanted to believe him, cause i don't want anythi

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 68 — The Truth Reaches Home

    Rachel's POV I drove without knowing where I was going at first, my hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that my fingers hurt, while tears continued sliding down my cheeks no matter how many times I wiped them away, because every time I thought I had finally reached the worst part of my life, another truth appeared and broke something inside me that I had thought was already beyond repair. Dave's face kept appearing in my mind. The way he had looked at me when Betty exposed him, the tears in his eyes when he fell to his knees, the way his voice trembled when he begged me to listen, and most painfully, the way I had still leaned down and kissed him even after learning that he had been responsible for the destruction of my marriage to Nathan. I pressed my lips together as another sob escaped me. Why did I still love him? Why, after everything he had done, did my heart still run toward him when my mind was screaming that I should run away? I didn't have an answer, an

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 67— The Truth That Broke Us

    Rachel’s POV Back to the present I stared at the address on my phone again, making sure I had not misunderstood it, before looking at Nathan, who was sitting beside me with his eyes fixed on the road ahead. “This is the place?” I asked, my voice trembling despite how hard I tried to keep myself together. “Yes,” Nathan replied, checking the information one more time. “The investigator confirmed it. Dave is inside that building.” The moment he said those words, my heart began beating faster, because no matter how angry I was with Dave, no matter how confused I had become after Betty's threats and the terrible video she had sent me, he was still my husband, the man I loved, and the father of my children, and knowing that he was somewhere inside that abandoned building while Betty had control over him was enough to make every other thought disappear from my mind. “Drive faster.” Nathan looked at me for a moment, perhaps wanting to say something, but he eventually turned his a

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   chapter 66

    Rachel’s POV The next morning, everything changed. I was in the house when several men suddenly rushed inside, their faces covered and their weapons raised, and before I could even scream properly, one of them grabbed me around the neck and pulled me backward while another pointed a gun directly at Nathan. “Don't move!” one of the masked men said. Nathan froze. “What do you want?” i said in fear. The man holding me tightened his grip. I struggled to breathe and release his hands but to no avail. “You will sign the document.” “What document?” I cried, struggling against his arm. “Who are you people?” “Sign it, or both of you die.” My eyes moved toward the papers lying on the table. “What is this?” What are you talking about. “You don't need to understand it. Just sign.” “No, I need to know what I am signing.” The gun pointed toward Nathan's chest. “Sign it now, or mourn your husband ” “Nathan!” i shouted in fear . “Rachel, just sign it,” he pleaded. My heart broke as I look

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 65: The Price of Love

    Nathan’s POVWhen I finally opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was the white ceiling above me, and for a few seconds I could not remember where I was or why my whole body felt so heavy, but then the pain in my side suddenly hit me so hard that I groaned and tried to move, only to feel a sharp pain travel through my body and force me back against the pillow. I slowly turned my head, and that was when I saw Rachel sitting beside my bed, her eyes swollen from crying, her hands tightly clasped together as she watched me with a worried expression, and the moment I recognized her face, all the fear and confusion inside me turned into anger. “You,” I shouted, my voice rough from the surgery, and Rachel immediately stood up from the chair as if she had been waiting for me to wake up. “Nathan, you are awake,” she whispered, moving closer to me with tears already gathering in her eyes. “Thank God you are awake. I was so scared when they took you into the operating room, I though
