Semua Bab My Husband Sacrificed My Daughter: Bab 1 - Bab 10

After my husband, Leo Barton, sent me back to my hometown for a month, he used this window to remove my daughter’s kidney to save his childhood sweetheart, Rosette Smith.While his childhood sweetheart was rescued, my daughter caught a severe case of acute kidney failure due to an infection.When I rushed to the hospital to see my daughter, she strained a smile and whimpered, “Mom… I saved Aunt Rosette. Does that mean… does that mean that Dad won’t leave us?”Her pupils had become dilated and her arms drooped off the side of the bed. She died with her eyes open.I sat stunned in silence by the bed, feeling as if someone had gouged out my heart. I started frantically calling Leo, and as soon as the call was connected, I heard him saying, “Rosette, I'm here. I won’t leave you! Your body just has a mild reaction to the new kidney. You’ll be okay after you get some rest back home.”Before I could even get a word out, he roared into the phone to shut me up, “Why are you being so dram

The next morning, I dragged my lethargic body back home with the cremated ashes of my daughter in my hands.I sat on the couch and waited until the afternoon for Leo to come home.When I was sixteen years old, I entered society with Leo, and we both tried to make something of ourselves. When we turned twenty-one, we started a small business, and then we got married and had children.In the blink of an eye, my daughter had grown into an adult as well.Twenty-three years of companionship turned out to be all for nothing.Leo seemed taken aback when he saw me. “All I did was forget to tell you about Dianne wanting to donate her kidney to Rosette. Did you have to let yourself go and sink into such a pathetic state?”I was disheveled and all the spark had left my eyes, appearing more like the dead than the living.Leo was disgruntled. He kicked off his shoes and went to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of water.The kettle was empty. This set him off again. “Look at you! You’ve j

It was Leo who had shouted. He showed up out of nowhere and knocked over the rows of flower baskets.Rosette trailed behind him. She came in on an electric wheelchair and held a hand over her chest as if she was in pain. Her complexion was very pale like she was on the verge of death. She had several bodyguards surrounding her as well.I charged toward Leo to stop him.“Stop! Don't ruin these flowers. They were Dianne’s favorite. Do you know how much work we put into growing these flowers? I won’t let you ruin them!”Leo ignored my pleas and shoved me to the ground, making me nearly drop the urn as I fell.Leo looked around the scene and shouted angrily, “Dianne, get out here right now!”I stared at him in disbelief. I foolishly thought he finally felt some resemblance of guilt about his daughter passing away and came to pay his respects. “What is your problem? Weren’t you going to spend time with this bitch and miss our daughter's birthday anyway? Why can’t you let us proceed wi

I glared at him with reddened eyes. I thought about how much I had loved him and contrasted that with how much I hated him at that moment.I don’t know how long I attacked him, but when I was done, his eyes were bloodshot and his cheeks were swollen. There were more than dozens of scratch marks across his face.I was worn out from hitting him and had lost my voice by this point. I collapsed in front of what remained of Dianne’s ashes. Finally, I gathered whatever ashes I could manage and poured them back into the urn.Leo knelt beside me and put out his trembling hands as if to offer help.Before he could even graze against the ashes, I jabbed a kick at him. “Get out of here! Don’t touch my daughter!”Leo kept his head down the entire time, and his voice was choked up. “Clarice, I'm so sorry. I-I thought the nurse would take care of her. How could this have happened? The doctor told me that the operation was successful…”I cried out with a voice filled with anguish, “Did you thin

At this point, Leo finally put the shrewdness and analytical ability he had learned in the business field to use. He shrugged Rosette's hand off and glared at her with a sharp look.“During the month when Clarice was away, you have been helping me take care of Dianne. That one time she had a fever, you were the one who took her to the hospital to get her treated. You have also helped attend the parent-teacher meetings and went through her homework. That means you would have access to her email.”Rosette started to cry and shake her head in denial. Tears began to fall again as she pleaded, “Why would I report myself? Why would I sabotage my career?”Leo deduced icily, “You were never good at the job anyway and have been complaining to me again and again about your colleagues ostracizing you. You just conveniently used the report to publicize our relationship.“You knew that now that the cat was out of the bag, you would get to claim the position of being my rightful wife barring any
