Why He Gave In Chapter 8
Joanne dashed out of the cemetery like a madwoman and started her car engine.She gripped the steering wheel so tightly, her knuckles turned white and the veins bulged at the back of her hands.The scenery outside the windows sped past.She thought back on the ingratiating and fawning look on Eason’s face, and the look of indulgent fondness he would always give her.All the sweet nothings he whispered to her, telling her that he wanted nothing except to be with her…All those ‘thoughtful’ remarks about Miguel having a bad temper and his heart aching for her over how tough things were for her…Gone was the heartache and butterflies in her stomach she used to feel.All she could see now was the scheming behind every word of his.There was her mother as well. Those encounters she had thought were coincidences turned out to be arranged by her mother.Sowing discord by “accidentally” revealing her dissatisfaction toward her husband…She wasn’t just a betrayer. She was also a puppe

The funeral was held in a rush.Joanne numbly contacted the funeral parlor and selected the cremation urn, booked a burial plot, and received the condolences of friends and family.There wasn’t much emotion on her face, but her eyes were sunken in and bloodshot.She neither cried nor smiled and looked as though she was handling a mundane, routine task.She would, however, occasionally cast a glance her daughter’s way.Dorothy was scared of her, but gripped tightly on the hem of her shirt as she looked up at her and asked with eyes swollen from all the crying, “Did Daddy become a star in the sky?”That would make Joanne stop what she was doing for a second.She didn’t dare to stop. Fear would fill her the moment she took a pause.Miguel was gone, and she no longer had a home.During those three years when Miguel left, she did not move any of his belongings at home.Why didn’t Miguel see the effort she had put in to preserve his belongings after his return?Miguel didn’t forgi

When the doctors walked in, he headed straight to the stiffened corpse on the floor."Ms. Shields, my condolences…"After some basic checks, both doctors shook their heads in silence as they started keeping their equipment. They picked up the stretcher and made a move to leave.The meaning behind their actions was clear enough.Joanne grabbed one of the doctors."No! Try harder! Doctor, please, I beg you to try again! Send him to the hospital! Send him to the hospital for emergency treatment… Please, I'm begging you. Save him…"The doctor said as comfortingly as he could, "I understand how you feel right now, but it's really not necessary."Joanne threw herself in front of the stretcher, her voice hoarse and her eyes bloodshot. She grabbed the doctor's arm with startling force, still grasping at straws."He was…he was talking just now! He was talking just a few minutes ago! I'm begging you, send him to the hospital, won't you?"The doctor looked helplessly at her, his brows fu

Third-Person POVJoanne running wildly to the man lying on the ground, pulling him into her arms.Miguel was dead."Miguel, Miguel… Miguel, wake up!"When she was unable to wake the man on the floor up no matter how hard she shook his body, Joanne yelled at the top of her lungs.The man in her arms remained unmoving.After she calmed down a little and looked at the man before her, she realized that one of his hands was gripping his shirt at his upper abdomen so tightly, his knuckles had turned white. His face was also twisted in extreme pain.His eyes were wide open and staring blankly at the ceiling, the sight of it frightening her so much she leaped two steps back.A moment later, she stepped forward again and put her fingers at Miguel's nose to see if he was breathing.She quickly retracted her hand as though she was scalded."No, no. This can't be. Miguel! Miguel…!"Dead? How did he die? No.She quickly pulled out her phone and called for an ambulance. "Doctor, come qui

Unbearable pain started throbbing in my abdomen when Eason threw me a sharp look.I was trying my best to be as compliant and docile as I could so that Dorothy could have a better time in the future.When Eason heard Joanne's footsteps fading away, he walked over with his arms across his chest."If you hadn't kicked up such a huge fuss with Joanne in private, I would have moved in a long time ago. You think you'll make her feel bad by pretending to be magnanimous? Do you really enjoy being made a cuckold?"He was trying to provoke me with his mockery, but I bowed my head and said meekly, "You're overthinking. I said that I welcome you to move in. I give you and Joanne my blessings. Just be good to my daughter."Eason saw that his words had no effect on me and spat in frustration, "I'm warning you, you'd better know your place in this house from now on!"I packed some clothes and daily necessities before leaving the room.Joanne stopped me at the stairwell. "You're just taking th

When I woke up, I found myself in a hospital ward.I heard a voice of accusation sound out behind the curtain."Why can't he be content being a son-in-law of our family? Must he fight for favor with a widower?"He bled so much after his appendectomy. We have to pay for his follow-up treatment."I told you a long time ago that I don't like him. I told you right from the start to marry Eason instead!"Another woman's voice cut her off."Alright, Mom. You should head home first. This is a hospital.""I'll be off, then. Let me know when you're almost home tonight, and I'll have Eason head over to serve you."That was when I found out that it was my mother-in-law who had been arranging for her favorite Eason to "serve" Joanne while I wasn't around.Each time I left the house, Eason will turn up on the dot to "serve" Joanne. I had been kept in the dark on this for four years.I laid hopelessly on the hospital bed and decided to bring up divorce when Joanne pulled the curtains bac
