Chapter 1

A sudden wave of dizziness washed over me. The moment the traffic light turned red, I stepped on the brakes at the intersection.Shouts and screams erupted from the sidewalk."Call an ambulance! A pregnant woman has collapsed and is bleeding badly!"I instinctively reached for the car door handle. But as soon as I tried to open it, a flood of painful memories overwhelmed me.I could almost hear my husband, Wilfred O'Neil, and my in-laws angrily cursing and blaming me for the death of my sister-in-law, Sarah O'Neil.My hand subconsciously went to my belly as I relived the day her husband, Matthew Pruett, had slashed it open in a bloody frenzy.The phantom pain gripped me, making my muscles twitch and convulse uncontrollably.I pulled my hand away. When the light turned green, I stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.To prevent my in-laws from pointing fingers at me later, I went straight to my mother-in-law, Susan Bramwell's house."Susan, Wilfred's working late today. I

Just before I returned home earlier, Susan had been on a video call with Wilfred. He was trying to make her keep me a little longer, so that I wouldn't get in the way of him and his beloved.Watching Susan's nervous demeanor, I purposely hurried back, my breath heavy and ragged."Susan, Wilfred's colleague said that he's not working late tonight. I called him as well, but he didn't pick up!"A flicker of guilt flashed across Susan's face, but she quickly masked it, trying to defend Wilfred. "Maybe someone asked him to step out for a bit. If you can't reach him now, try again a little later."At that moment, Bernice O'Neil, Wilfred's aunt, arrived on the scene. She was accompanied by Sarah's in-laws, Henry Pruett and Edna McKellen.As soon as Bernice spotted me, her brow knitted into a frown. "Where's Wilfred? Isn't he the obstetrician? Why haven't you notified him? What exactly are you doing here then?"Bernice was my late father-in-law's older sister. Since his passing, she had

The golden window for saving a patient with amniotic fluid embolism was measured in mere minutes. It was essentially a battle between the doctor and the grim reaper.In the past three years, Wilfred had saved five women from this condition. Only one life had slipped through his hands.His success rate had solidified his position as the top obstetrician in the hospital's department.At last, Bernice's call connected.In a panic, she cried, "Wilfred, you need to come to the hospital! Your sister is experiencing an amniotic fluid embolism. You're the only one who can save her!"On the other end of the call, the sounds of children laughing and glasses clinking filled the air."Aunt Bernice, must you spiral out of control like Ariana? Isn't this chaos enough already? I spend all 365 days of the year catering to her every need. I just want one peaceful day. Can't you just let me be?"Kelly and I aren't involved in any way. Her family just returned, and I was simply having a meal with

Matthew couldn't wrap his mind around the fact that Sarah was suddenly gone. He had only been away on a three-day business trip.Before he left, they had spent hours talking about their dreams, picturing a future together as a happy family of three.After learning the truth from Henry and Edna, Matthew wiped away his tears and silently assisted me with the funeral arrangements.No one thought to inform Wilfred, especially after discovering he was dining with Kelly Shapiro's family at a hotel across from the hospital. He couldn't even be bothered to come over and confront the truth firsthand.Susan had completely given up on him.But for such an important event, there was no way I would let Wilfred stay away.The day Sarah was to be buried in her hometown, I made sure to have someone notify him a day ahead.On the morning of the burial, rain drizzled from the sky. I stood by the car, sheltered beneath the canopy of my umbrella. I watched as the crowd solemnly carried Sarah's co

"You were looking for Sarah, weren't you? Well, here she is," Bernice said, her voice laced with mockery.She wiped the rain from her face and pointed toward the coffin.Wilfred stumbled forward, his legs buckling beneath him, before he crumpled to the ground."Who are you trying to deceive with this act?" Bernice demanded. "When Ariana called you to come back, you accused her of lying. When I asked you, you turned it on me. Even when your mother begged on her knees for you to return, you said she was lying too."Did you think we were all lying? Or is Sarah's life worth less to you than a dinner with some other woman?""No! That's not it! Sarah is my sister. I've raised her since she was little. I've always treated her like my own daughter!"The truth was, Sarah and I had never seen eye to eye. Though she lost her father at a young age, Susan and Wilfred had coddled her, raising her into a spoiled, headstrong woman.Due to Wilfred's constant disregard for me, Sarah had never spa

Bernice lunged forward, trying to stop Matthew. "Hey! Stop! Don't hit him anymore! If you keep going, you'll kill him!"Enduring the pain coursing through my body, I let out a cold, bitter laugh. It was obvious they were all cut from the same cloth."It wasn't me. It's all Ariana's fault!" Wilfred howled. "Because she was jealous of Sarah, she deliberately misled me and stopped me from coming back. It was her! She's the one who killed Sarah!"Gritting his teeth, Wilfred staggered to his feet and lunged at me.The veins on Matthew's forehead bulged with fury. Had Henry and Edna not been there that fateful day, he might have fallen for Wilfred's deceit.After shoving Wilfred back down onto the ground, Matthew pulled out his phone and showed him a video.It was the surveillance footage from the day of the incident.In the video, a child sprinted from afar and shoved Sarah to the ground. He kicked her in the stomach, raining down cruel, venomous words.Of course, it was I who had a

After packing my clothes and important documents, I rented a place and reached out to a divorce lawyer."Mr. Gomez, I need you to draw up a divorce settlement. I'm walking away empty-handed."I couldn't afford to wait any longer. The O'Neil family could try to blame me for Sarah's death again, all to shield Wilfred's reputation.I never doubted their ability to go that far.In my past life, they were fully aware of my innocence, but they decided to play ignorant.When I walked into Susan's house holding the divorce agreement, my gut feeling turned out to be right."Ariana, how dare you show your face here? I already talked to Lucas. He told me it was you who pushed him to hurt Sarah! You're a murderer!"Wilfred jabbed a finger at me, his voice laced with accusation.Susan's eyes widened in shock, while Bernice's face contorted with hatred.I let out a bitter laugh and slammed the divorce agreement down on the table."Wilfred, everyone knows how Sarah died. If you keep blaming

"Wilfred, you're nothing but a heartless monster. Just being in the same room as you makes me sick. You'd better sign the papers. Tomorrow, we'll go to the courthouse and finalize the divorce."Hearing the chill in my voice, Wilfred fired back without hesitation, "In your dreams!"Holding up my phone, I said, "Fine. Don't sign it if you don't want to. But just so you know, this recording will make its way to everyone you know."Without a word, Wilfred yanked the phone from my hand and slammed it hard onto the ground.I stepped back, increasing the distance between us. "I've set up a timed email. If I don't cancel it by 3:00 pm, it'll go straight to the maternity hospital. Matthew and every major media outlet will also get a copy.""Ariana, why are you doing this to me? I've told you a thousand times that there's nothing going on between me and Kelly. I haven't betrayed you. How much longer are you going to keep making a scene?""Making a scene? At this point, do you honestly thin

Chapter 9

Determined to leave no enemy unscathed, Matthew proceeded with far greater caution than Susan.In the final three days of his month-long disappearance, he finally exacted his revenge.He was far more brutal than I ever imagined.I had assumed that Kelly and Lucas were his only targets. But one night, he stormed into the Shapiro residence and slaughtered all six family members.The victims included Kelly, Lucas, Kelly's parents, as well as her brother and sister-in-law.Lucas was left to bleed to death after his limbs were severed.Kelly had her organs removed, and her tongue was cut out.The remaining family members were killed with a single, fatal blow.That night, Wilfred was on a night shift at the hospital. After Matthew killed the entire Shapiro family, he sent Wilfred a message from Kelly's phone."Wilfred, I've prepared some snacks for you. Since your mother's asleep upstairs, I can't go up. You'll need to come downstairs to get them yourself."Wilfred cast a quick gla
