Chapter 1

A month later, Mia Scott suffered from a burn. As she was going through a skin graft, Mike Anderson suddenly thought of me. “Is it fun to give me the cold shoulder for that long?“Be here in thirty minutes. If Mia has any scars because of this, I’m going to divorce you and split our assets accordingly!”Splitting assets meant that everything in our marriage would have a price tag attached to it. I was a housewife, and I would end up with nothing. He believed that I would definitely go, but he did not know that I had already died in the fire along with our baby. When I left our house, I felt a little strange. A ghost once told me that if my lover thought of me, I would be able to leave my death site. However, a month had passed, and I could not leave the house at all. Mike had never once thought of me. He only remembered me when Mia needed a skin graft procedure. I grimaced. It was no surprise. When I was alive, he never cared about me. What more, I was dead? M

A few minutes later, Mike looked at his phone and felt a little uneasy. I had not called him back. After all, in the past, unless I was busy with house chores, I was always waiting for him to call me at every single moment. He had called me, yet I had not immediately called him back in my extremely grateful tone. Just when he was about to check with his team on the fire Sally had mentioned, Mia quickly stopped him. “Mike, I was the one who answered all the calls after you received that award. Lean never called once.” Upon hearing that, Mike no longer frowned with worry. “Her friends are as bad as her! They’re always lying to me and teaming up against me.” After he said that, he angrily screenshotted his divorce request to his lawyer and prepared to send it to me. However, when he scrolled through his text messaging app, he could not find his conversation with me. It was no surprise. He rarely replied to my text messages. He did not even bother to save my contact. In

After Sally received the screenshot, she sent him a bunch of voice messages. If he had clicked on those, he would have learned about the fire that Sally was telling him. It was a shame that he did not do that. He did not have any patience for anyone or anything related to me. Half an hour later, I still had not responded to him. He immediately called the rehabilitation center. “I’m Mike. I’m no longer paying for Leah’s mother’s fees, so you can immediately throw her out.” The nurse paused. She flipped through her records and sounded uncertain. “Are you referring to Leah’s mother?”“Yes.” “Leah’s mother passed away a month ago from a car accident.” Mike’s breathing hitched. His eyes widened a little in shock, but he found it hard to believe. “Did Leah tell you to say that? How could she possibly get into a car accident when she’s supposed to be at the rehabilitation center? You should come up with a better lie.“Get rid of her now. I don’t want to repeat myself.”

Chapter 4

After they slept together, Mia fell asleep. Mike suddenly thought of me. He carefully picked up his phone and scrolled through his contact list. When he saw my contact description as “loves Mike forever”, he let out a sigh of relief. Then, he sent me a text message. [Stop with your tantrum. I won’t really ask you to pay me. Just come over and donate your skin to Mia.][She’s still a young woman. How is she going to marry someone with such a scar? Come over, quick. I’ll be waiting for you at the hospital.]He kept checking his phone, but he did not receive any replies from me. Then, he kissed Mia’s cheek out of frustration. I grimaced. I felt relieved and sad at the same time. Tragically, in the past, I would have answered him happily. I would never have thought that he would text me right after cheating on me, which was why he sounded gentler than usual. As for relief… I touched my flat tummy and smiled helplessly. Thankfully, my baby never had to suffer in such

“How is it possible?“How could I possibly owe Leah that much money? She’s just a housewife!“Where is she? Why are you representing her? This is totally unfair!” Mike stared at the figure on top of his head that quickly became a negative number. As for Sally, the number on her head grew a lot, and it became two million dollars. Everyone started rioting. They said that Sally was replacing me, so it was basically cheating. Mia even picked up a water bottle and threw it at Sally. “What a lousy system! It’s a scam! Tell Leah to show her face and pay up!” “That’s right! Pay up, pay up!” Everyone started to chant. The bottle flew toward Sally. I subconsciously tried to shield her, but the bottle went through my translucent body. Fortunately, Logan appeared on time. He blocked the bottle from hitting Sally. “Are you alright?”Sally nodded. They turned around and glared at Mia furiously. However, Mia still looked very smug. The workers at the city hall were trying t

The audience started to grumble. “These are just a married woman’s responsibility. Why is he being charged?”“He’s working hard out there. Isn’t it the woman’s responsibility to do all the basic house chores?”The city hall’s staff member laughed and asked, “Do you need to pay for a nanny?”The crowd answered, “Yes.” “Do you need to pay a cleaner?”“Yes.” “Do you need to pay a caretaker?”“Of course!” “Since you say yes, it means these jobs have value. Then, why did you ignore the value of a housewife when they carried out all these tasks? Why did you turn a blind eye to women’s values?”The crowd became quiet. There were some faint sobs. No one knew who was crying. Maybe the sobs came from the women who had contributed in silence. I heard the cries and suddenly smiled. I had married Mike because of happiness in the first place. However, it turned out that he was the only happy one. Mia looked at the crowd that was no longer scolding me and stomped her foot in

Chapter 7

The crowd’s emotions were stirred too. They felt that the numbers displayed on the screen were fair. Sally sneered and continued, “Mike, Chief Anderson, I remember back when you first got married, you said that you’d love her forever.“It turned out your love amounted to a measly one thousand dollars a month. Your love only gave her suffering!“Look at you! Do you think this is reflective of what you’ve owed her?”Mike looked up in fear. As expected, there was a twenty-thousand dollars gap to reach two million dollars. He suddenly recalled something as his lips quivered. “Impossible… It’s impossible…”“5,786! Do you remember this figure?” Sally was in tears. Her eyes were filled with sympathy toward me. “Those were three years’ worth of school fees! She was the one who sponsored your school fees that amounted to 17,358 dollars!“In order to earn enough money, she lost fifteen pounds in six months!” As she said that, I was shown on the screen again. I was working ma

Chapter 8

Mike’s eyes widened his eyes in shock as he received the terrifying news. He did not believe his own ears. He refused to believe it. “Impossible! On the wedding day, I never received any calls at the fire station! Leah can’t be dead!” Logan laughed mockingly. He looked at his superior in disdain. “That’s right, you didn’t receive the call, but Mia did!“If she had told us earlier, just a little earlier…”As if Logan had recalled something terrible, he balled his fists up with an expression of anguish. I looked at them and hung my head. He was right. If they had been informed a little earlier, I could have been saved. However, those few minutes of purposeful delay led to my death due to asphyxiation. “She really wanted to live. She crawled to the exit with her bloodied limbs, but she still didn’t manage to escape…“No one would be able to have such strong perseverance, unless she’s a mother.” Sally cried and took out my pregnancy report from her bag. It indicated th

Chapter 9

“Hello, I’m Mike. Is Leah’s mother still at the rehabilitation center?“Can you keep a close eye on her? I’ll come and pick her up in a bit.” The only solution Mike thought of was to take care of my mother. However, what the nurse said next killed all his hope. “I’ve told you before that she’s no longer with us.”“Where’s she?”“She died in a car accident right in front of the fire station. Chief Anderson, do you not know that?”The phone slipped from his hand. Mike stared blankly. He could not believe it was real. Sally could not stop herself from slapping him. “You’re a jerk, Mike!“Leah’s mother had the IQ of a seven-year-old. She didn’t know anything, yet she knew she had to save Leah!“She thought you would save Leah, so she was calling out your name before she breathed her last breath in a puddle of her own blood!”My heart sank. I desperately wanted to look for my mother. However, with Mike there, I could not go anywhere. The divorce was no longer as simple
