Chapter 10

Author: Stupid
Samuel simply asked, "Where is the body?"

When he and Dad finally arrived, they saw the familiar clothes I was wearing. Their legs gave out, and they had to support each other to get closer.

When they saw my battered corpse, both collapsed to their knees.

Samuel wanted to hold me, but didn't know how. His fingers trembled as he tried to reach out, but before he could touch me, the police stopped him.

He roared, "She's my wife! Can't I at least see her?"

The officer frowned and replied coldly, "Wife? Weren't you two already divorced?"

They had immediately checked my identity, and sure enough, it showed we were divorced.

Samuel froze. "When did we…"

He stopped mid-sentence as realization dawned. He hurriedly called his assistant but was told he hadn't given me any documents. At that moment, Samuel felt the world collapse.

He lowered his head and punched himself in frustration, regretting all the mistakes he had made.

What had he done when he was blinded by madness?

  • Who Did I Wake Up As?   Chapter 9

    Jessica's face went pale the moment she heard those words. There was no way she could hand over that phone. If she did, everything would come crashing down.She shook her head desperately. "My phone went missing last night. I swear I don't know what happened…"However, no one in the room was buying it. Everyone there had lived long enough to see through a lie.Mom and Dad looked utterly shattered. Right there in front of everyone, they announced that Jessica was no longer part of the Brown family.The murmuring crowd was soon escorted out of the venue. Before leaving, Bella slapped Jessica hard across the face. "I was wrong about you," she said coldly.Jessica clutched her burning cheek, sobbing uncontrollably. It was over. She had lost everything.When the room finally emptied, Mom knelt down beside her, gripping her arm in desperation. "What did you do to Kayla?" she asked.She hadn't heard from me in so long. That question had been a desperate shot in the dark, but to her hor

  • Who Did I Wake Up As?   Chapter 8

    I wish I had died in that car crash years ago.I would've rather never awakened than to see someone else take my place and receive the love that was once mine.Jessica placed the baby beside my lifeless body.She stood over me and whispered coldly, "Rory, I'll come to get you soon. Once my identity is made official, I will bring you home and dispose of this woman's body in the wilderness."In her arms, she held a newly adopted infant who bore some resemblance to Rory.She planned to take him to the party."Jess! You've finally made it through all the hard times!" Bella called out with a cheerful wave.As Jessica walked over, Bella reached out to tease the baby. "He's so adorable! Honestly, you three are the real family. Don't worry about Kayla—she poses no threat to your status."Jessica smiled demurely and glanced toward Samuel as he approached.Since losing track of me, Samuel had been despondent and withdrawn.The only time he appeared somewhat himself was when holding the

    They ignored Jessica's protests and rushed out to look for me. In the end, she was left behind, nearly driven mad with jealousy."Yes, I still have the baby…" she muttered, suddenly snapping out of it.She hurried to a drawer, pulled out a packet of powder, mixed it with water, and fed it to the baby.I stared in disbelief.Jessica looked at the child with anticipation. "As long as you're sick, they'll come back. Yes. As long as you're sick…"I never imagined she could be this cruel.I watched helplessly as the baby began to struggle in her arms. Slowly, his tiny arms fell limp, and he stopped moving.Jessica let out a gasp of joy, as if she had just won a prize. She picked up her phone and made a call."Sam, Rory's not feeling well again. Can you come back and take a look?"It was the same act again. That was when I realized all those emergency calls were just part of her plan. She had been making her own child sick just to keep calling them back.I didn't know what Samuel s

    That car was supposed to be a wedding gift from my parents to me.But after my accident, they ended up giving it to Jessica instead. Now, it had become the very weapon Jessica used against me.In the trunk, my head throbbed as I drifted in and out of consciousness. I tried to call for help, but Samuel never picked up.Neither did my parents.I kept calling again and again, but there was no response.Left with no other options, I finally dialed 911.The call connected after a few rings, but just then my dying phone shut off.I wanted to scream, but I didn't have the strength. All I could do was lie there helplessly as Jessica drove me to some unknown place.When we got out of the car, I realized she had brought me back to the small villa where I had first discovered Jessica.She dragged me into a basement and threw me to the ground. It was pitch dark, except for the eerie glow of the surveillance monitors. Jessica stomped hard on my lips with her stiletto heels, and pain sh

  • Who Did I Wake Up As?   Chapter 5

    I hung up the phone and stood by the window, nearly leaning out over the edge.Just as I was about to jump from the high-rise, I caught sight of a happy family of three in the park below.Suddenly, I changed my mind.My parents and my husband were all hiding things from me. They didn't want me to know Jessica existed.If I exposed what Jessica had done, how would they face it?I climbed down from the windowsill. Not long after, Samuel hurried back in a panic. His panic only eased when he saw me."You scared me to death, darling," he said. "Your tone was off, and I thought something happened. Look, I bought you a necklace to make up for not being with you when you left the hospital. Do you like it?"He held out an elegant gift box. I opened it, only to find it empty."Do you like it—"Samuel's face dropped as he realized the box was empty.I smiled bitterly.Not long ago, I saw Jessica wearing a necklace in one of her social media posts. That made me wonder if everything I re
