All Chapters of My Husband Faked His Death, I Snapped: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

“Honey, your darling Victoria is back.”Cedric caught Victoria as she stumbled into his arms. His voice was gentle as he spoke.“You still can’t hold your liquor, yet you always drink too much. You’re going to have a headache again tomorrow.”Victoria wrapped her hands around his chest, acting spoiled.“I just want you to take care of me. Is that a crime?”Cedric tapped her lightly on the forehead. His gaze was full of affection.“You little troublemaker.”His mother stood beside them, watching with a warm, satisfied smile.I stood not far away, fists clenched so tightly my nails dug into my palms. Blood dripped down, but I did not feel a thing.One of them was my husband — Cedric Foster — the man I had been told died eight years ago during a mission.The other was his mother, who was supposed to be in a long-term care facility as a vegetative patient.Yet here they were — alive, well, and building a new family with another woman.How ironic.It was as though the past eigh

After Cedric left, I collapsed onto the floor, completely drained of strength.Then I laughed through my tears.My thoughts drifted back to our first meeting.That day, our school organized a trip to the beach. I accidentally wandered into deep water.The waves swallowed me whole and I thought I was going to die. Then Cedric appeared.He came to save me, got tangled in seaweed, and nearly lost his own life.I was drawn to his bright, handsome face and insisted on getting his contact information.We dated for two years. On the day he proposed, he swore to me, “Elysia, you are the only woman I will ever love. No matter what happens, I will always trust you and never hurt you.”After marriage, he truly treated me well, doting on me in every possible way.Together, we took out loans to build a maritime rescue company.That was also where he supposedly died in an accident.I never expected it all to be part of his deception.Staggering to my feet, I was about to leave when sever

After Elysia was dragged away, Cedric immediately called for a doctor in a panic.“Doctor, hurry and check on Victoria. She’s pregnant. She was pushed earlier and she’s in bad shape.”Victoria leaned against his chest, fingers tightly gripping the bedsheet. A flicker of panic flashed across her eyes.She was not pregnant at all.It had all been a lie, something she blurted out in the heat of the moment.She wanted to completely crush Elysia to make sure Cedric would never trust that woman again.Now she had taken it too far. If the doctor examined her, everything would fall apart.Cedric noticed the sweat on her forehead and gently comforted her.“Don’t be scared, baby. I’m here. Nothing will happen to you or the child.”Victoria nodded weakly, hiding her unease. No one noticed the stiffness in her expression.A few minutes later, the doctor removed the stethoscope, looking awkward.“Mr. Foster, Miss Lane is not pregnant.”Cedric froze for a moment. “What did you say?”“Th

That day at the hospital, my best friend took a strand of my hair and secretly arranged a DNA test with Mrs. Lane.Neither of us expected the result. I was truly the Lane family’s long-lost biological daughter.By the time Mrs. Lane found me, I had already been locked in the basement by Cedric’s men.I made a deal with her.If she got me out, I would return to the Lane family and reclaim my place.I also asked her to keep my identity a secret for the time being.Cedric and Victoria could not find out.She agreed. Not only did she arrange for me to be rescued immediately, but she also had all traces of my personal information erased.No matter how hard Cedric searched, he would never find me.When the news broke, the entire city was stunned.The Lane family was the wealthiest family in Ocean City.The loss of their biological daughter had been Mrs. Lane’s greatest regret for over twenty years.After searching all over the world, they had finally found her.When Victoria hea

Victoria froze in place, unable to believe what had just happened.She crawled toward Cedric, clutching at his pant leg in desperation.“No, no, don’t divorce me. Honey, I don’t want to divorce you. You’ve always loved me. You can’t abandon me.”She cried hysterically, completely broken, full of regret.Mrs. Lane stepped forward and shielded me. Her gaze was cold as she looked down at Victoria.“From today on, there is no adopted daughter in the Lane family. You have nothing to do with us anymore. Get out.”Victoria’s face turned ashen. She collapsed onto the floor.Still, she tried one last time. “I didn’t know she was the real daughter of the Lane family. I didn’t mean to hurt her…”However, no matter what she said, no one listened anymore.No one cared.Without the Lane family’s protection, everything she had — her wealth, her pride, her status — vanished overnight.As for Cedric, the man who had risen to power only through his connection to the Lane family, he was ordere
