Todos los capítulos de I Changed My Husband After a Crash: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 9

My boyfriend, Howard Schultz, poured all his time and energy into that troublesome new intern of his, Crystal Jennings. Even when I nearly died in a car accident, he spent the night coaching her and whisked her away on a business trip. When I gave him a final birthday surprise, he lost it.…My parents were over the moon when I agreed to the arranged marriage they'd been pushing for. They instantly transferred another 200,000 dollars into my account."Celine, you've finally come to your senses. Howard is poor and has no future. He's been running that company for five years and it still hasn't gone public. He can't give you a good life.""The Zimmerman family's second son is better than him in every possible way. Trust us. You won't regret this."My parents had never approved of my relationship with Howard, and because I was blindly devoted to him, things at home were always tense.It had been a long time since I'd seen my parents this happy. A complicated mix of emotions rose i

"Want to eat together?" Howard asked, coming over to grab the food. His fingertips brushed my cheek. "Celine, don't be mad. I have to establish authority in front of my employees. You're the one who taught me that."I turned away, disgusted by the scent of ointment and another woman's perfume on his fingers. I didn't answer."You're not jealous, are you? How could there ever be anything between Crystal and me? You know I can't stand people who make trouble."When I still didn't respond, he continued, "Alright, alright. It's my fault. I've been traveling so much and haven't been taking good care of you. I promise, once this project is done, we'll have the wedding."He probably wasn't aware that each time he mentioned Crystal, a smile hid in his eyes. "Howie, I'm starving! My stomach is growling!" Crystal's faux-cheerful voice rang out, and Howard rushed to her side.I declined their invitation to eat together, claiming I needed rest. I went upstairs by myself and packed my things

The voice was low and magnetic. Immediately, the chatty salesclerks fell silent and stepped aside. "Good afternoon, sir!"I looked up to see a tall, strikingly handsome man approaching. His features were sharp, his eyes bright, and he exuded a majestic yet imposing presence.He landed a brutal punch on Howard's jaw, then turned nimbly to stand beside me. Taking out a handkerchief, he meticulously wiped his hands. "Sorry, I'm late."This was Joshua Zimmerman, the man I was arranged to marry.He clapped once, and the salesclerks hurriedly brought out tray after tray of wedding rings. Diamonds and other rare gemstones glimmered under the lights so brilliantly that I almost had to squint.Clinging to Howard's arm, Crystal screeched, "You crazy man! How dare you hit Howie? Do you have any idea who he is…"But her voice faltered mid-sentence, her jaw dropping. "Is that the Pink Star diamond? And that's the Rockefeller emerald. Oh my god, a Chrysoberyl cat's eye! And that's a Padparadsc

Celine's POVWhen I first met Joshua, he did feel a little familiar.My gaze dropped to the watch on his wrist, and a guess formed in my mind. "You were the passerby from that day?"Realizing I was still holding onto him, I quickly retracted my hand. A hint of disappointment flashed across his face as he gave a small nod. "I really like the watch. But your ex-boyfriend doesn't seem ready to give up. Do you need my help?"I shook my head. "I'll handle it. It won't affect our arranged marriage." Gesturing to the jewelry, I added, "These are too expensive. The watch I gave you probably isn't even worth a fraction of all this. You should return them."Besides, I had only given him that watch by accident. "We're getting married next month. My woman deserves the best. Just accept them. There will be plenty more in the future."And true to his word, there was. Ever since our first meeting at the ring shop, Joshua thought of new ways to give me things almost every day—clothes, jewelr

Joshua and I turned out to be unexpectedly compatible. After expressing our feelings, our relationship progressed quickly, both emotionally and physically.The next day was our wedding day. That night, we each had our own pre-wedding parties.Before leaving, Joshua, concerned, told me, "Call me anytime if something happens."I laughed. "What could possibly happen? Don't worry. Go have fun."To keep the atmosphere relaxed, I only had bodyguards stationed outside. But I never imagined Howard would sneak into my bachelorette party.In the latter half of the night, everyone was drunk, including me. Someone handed me a glass of water. Thinking it was a friend, I accepted it and took two sips.My head grew heavier and heavier until I eventually lost consciousness.When I opened my eyes again, the first thing I saw was Howard's ugly face."You're insane! You actually kidnapped me? Joshua will kill you!" I yelled, but my voice was weak.Behind Howard, I saw Crystal smirking. She stepp
