Rachel’s POV

The hospital smelled like bleach and despair. I hated that smell it crawled into my chest and made it hard to breathe. Dave had insisted we come first thing in the morning, even when I told him I felt fine.

“You’re not fine,” he had said, his jaw tight, his hand firm around mine as though I’d shatter if he let go.

Now the doctor sat across from me, his glasses sliding down the bridge of his nose. “You need rest, Rachel. Real rest. No stress, no heavy work. If you push yourself, you

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 67 — The Truth Reaches Home

    Rachel's POVI 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, and I didn't wa

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 66 — The Truth That Broke Us

    Rachel’s POVBack 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 attenti

  • 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

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   Chapter 64 — The Secret That Changed Everything

    Rachel’s POV The moment I saw the ambulance doors open, my heart nearly stopped. I had been sitting in the back of the car, crying and calling Dave's phone over and over again, but nobody had answered me, and when I finally saw the ambulance rushing through the hospital entrance with its siren screaming into the night, I pushed the car door open before the driver had even stopped properly. I cried as I ran toward the nurses pushing the stretcher inside. “Please, save my my husband?” One of the nurses tried to stop me, but I grabbed her arm with trembling fingers, my eyes already filled with tears. “Please , i need to know how we can save him . “Ma’am, you need to calm down. Your husband has suffered a gunshot wound and the doctors are attending to him right now.” I looked toward the stretcher and saw Nathan lying there, his face pale, his clothes covered with blood, and his eyes closed as the doctors and nurses hurried him through the emergency doors. “Nathan!” I screamed, try

  • She Died as His Wife, Returned as His Nightmare   chapter 64

    Dave’s POV One year later... after dave hired Melissa, I used to believe that once Melissa entered Nathan’s life, everything would happen exactly the way I had planned, and for the first few months, it actually looked that way because she played her part so perfectly that even I sometimes forgot she had been hired to destroy a marriage. She became Nathan’s friend first, the person he could talk to whenever he was angry with Rachel, then she slowly became the woman he searched for whenever he needed comfort, and before long, Nathan had fallen so deeply into her trap that he stopped seeing Rachel as the woman he had once promised to love forever. At first, I was satisfied. Whenever my men brought me updates, I listened while they told me that Nathan was spending more time with Melissa, that he was staying out late, that he was becoming irritated whenever Rachel questioned him, and that the arguments between the married couple were becoming more frequent. I did not have to do any
