I stood outside Simone Inman's office door, listening closely to the phone conversation between her and her best friend, Mindy Fox. I could barely breathe, and my whole body trembled uncontrollably. Not only did she believe that I had a brain tumor, but she was also disgusted and held nothing but disdain for me.I almost pushed the door open and demanded to know why she was so cruel to me.However, just then, she called her first love, Shawn Erskine, who was also her secretary. The gentle tone she used when speaking to him caused me to freeze.She said, "Shawn, have you left yet? I'll come pick you up later. We'll go to that restaurant we love. Don't worry. I'm feeling much better now. You're the one who cares about me the most. You showed concern after hearing that I was in a car accident, unlike someone else who doesn't care at all. "Oh, how I regret my choice back then."I lowered my head and looked at the bone broth I had carefully simmered for hours. My heart sank with hea

The moment I mentioned divorce, Simone's face fell drastically. She grabbed the divorce agreement off the table and tore it to pieces.Every word she spoke sounded as though it had been forced through clenched teeth. "Divorce? Do you think I'm stupid? You're not my husband, so why should I sign anything? You're just trying to scam me! I'm telling you right now—there's no way I'm falling for it!"I had already expected she would react heinously, so I no longer spared her any courtesy. "The reason you refuse to divorce me is because you're waiting for me to die so you can take all my assets. Isn't that right?"Simone's eyes flashed diffidently for a moment. She glared at me viciously. Then, she grabbed my luggage and violently threw it out the door.She yelled, "What nonsense are you talking about? Get out! Get lost right now!"Standing beside her, Shawn pretended to look anxious as he grabbed my hand and persuaded me to leave. "Heath, just leave already. Stop provoking Simone. She'

After I left the hospital, I hurried straight to a law firm and asked a close acquaintance to help me contact a reliable private investigator.Participating in an overseas medical research project would take up to four or five years. There were some things I had to settle properly before I left for good.As soon as I sat down at the law firm, I habitually opened my social media feed and saw Shawn's latest post.He wrote, "1+1=3. This is my happiness."The attached photo was an ultrasound showing a two-month pregnancy.Simone's cancer diagnosis was an undeniable fact, yet he was obviously still deceiving himself.I casually tapped "Like" and commented, "Hurry up and get the child's mother to divorce me. Otherwise, it'll always be an illegitimate child."After that, I blocked and deleted both of them from my contacts.That evening, I received a call from Simone's mother, Jane Swift.She was a kind and simple woman from a rural area. Ever since I married Simone, she had always tr

One week before the court hearing, the private investigator I had been waiting on finally called me."Mr. Powell, we found what you asked us to investigate, but you'll need to come here and confirm it yourself."His grave tone made my heart skip a beat. Could it really be what I thought?I practically ran to the detective agency.When I arrived, the investigator handed me a stack of photos and said in a low voice, "This is surveillance footage from Haven Supermarket on that day. Although it was damaged, we managed to restore it. These photos show who knocked you over and quickly fled the scene."My hands trembled as I took them. I flipped through the pages one by one. I was trembling so much that I couldn't speak.In that instant, I recalled fragmented pieces of memories that evoked a stabbing pain in my heart. It felt as though shards of glass were cutting into it.That day, I had accompanied Simone to the hospital for a prenatal checkup. We had been about to go home when she
