Semua Bab My Unborn Baby and the Floating Comments Told Different Stories: Bab 1 - Bab 8

My in-laws were visibly taken aback by my question. A moment later, they forced casual smiles and tried to smooth things over."Oh, it's nothing. Herman probably stepped out to pick something up. He should be back soon. You've been away on business for so long. You must be exhausted. Go put your luggage in the bedroom and get some rest."Just like in my previous life, they had no idea what was actually happening inside the bedroom.They simply assumed their son was preparing a surprise and played along, waiting for me to open the door and receive it.But I didn't dare take the risk.I could practically see Emily hiding behind the door, a knife clenched in her hand, waiting for the moment I stepped inside so she could drive it straight through my heart."No rush. I'll put my luggage away later. I want to rest for a bit first."As I spoke, I left my suitcase where it was and turned toward the couch.My in-laws hurried after me."Oh, come on. How long does it take to put away a suitcase?

The baby's voice was thick with tears.[Mommy, if you'd opened the door sooner, Daddy wouldn't be in danger right now...]The floating comments immediately fired back.[Shut up! Your grandparents aren't the dangerous ones. Emily is!]I snapped, "Understanding? What exactly am I supposed to understand? That he's in there cheating on me?"With a cold laugh, I continued, "When I went to the bathroom just now, did that woman sneak out? And now you're trying to get me into the room so she can slip out through the back door later, is that it?"The floating comments instantly erupted in approval.[Smart! That's exactly what you should say!][Whatever you do, don't go in there! Under no circumstances should you be the one opening that door!]The baby was crying so hard he could barely speak.[Mommy, this won't work! If they realize you're playing with them, things will end very badly!]My in-laws' faces turned ashen.My father-in-law barked angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about? What w

The bedroom door swung all the way open.A woman covered in blood stood in the shadows, a bloodstained knife still clutched in her hand.My in-laws gasped in horror.Emily let out a startled cry as well.Through the gap behind the woman, Herman could be seen sitting on the bed.A strange smile hung on his face as he stared straight at us."Herman, what are you doing?!" my in-laws shouted in panic.They tried to rush into the room, but I stopped them."Don't go over there."My voice trembled."He's already dead."The floating comments exploded across my vision.[Yeah. His pupils are completely dilated. He's been dead for a while.][Oh my God, is this woman a psychopath?]Herman had been dead for a long time.In my previous life, I saw him exactly like this.He was dead with his eyes open and that eerie smile frozen on his face.The woman licked the blood from the tip of her knife and smiled darkly."Smart girl. That's right. I killed him. But you should be thanking me."The baby cried i

Some internet users even dug up the company where I worked.The office phone was flooded with calls, and my boss tactfully suggested that I "take some time off."People even began waiting outside the apartment building where I was temporarily staying, holding signs that read "Murderer."My phone rang.My father-in-law's name flashed across the screen.The moment I answered, my mother-in-law's hysterical voice exploded through the speaker."Cindy! You must walk away with nothing! Not a single dollar of Herman's money belongs to you!"The floating comments raced across my vision.[Have these two completely lost their minds? Their son cheated, and they're still acting this self-righteous?][Don't be afraid, Cindy. The law is on your side!][Herman brought this on himself. How do they still have the nerve to demand money?]The baby's gentle voice drifted into my mind.[Mommy, don't listen to them.]Just as I was about to respond, my father-in-law grabbed the phone."If you take even a cent
