All Chapters of After Our Daughter Died, I Left My Actress Wife: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When the $2,000 payment labelled ‘medical expenses’ finally came through, the doctor had just removed the ventilator from my daughter’s face. It was what had kept Ellie alive through the night.I stood frozen outside the hospital room, completely numb.I watched as the nurse slowly unfolded a white sheet and recorded the time of death.Then, suddenly, the phone in my hand began to buzz.I tapped the screen and answered mechanically.A sharp, middle-aged woman’s voice immediately came through the receiver.“Mr. Spencer, how many times do I have to explain the reimbursement process before you finally understand?“Once the payment arrives, you’re supposed to notify our finance department immediately!“I wired the money more than three minutes ago! Why haven’t you replied that you received it yet?“Also, the font on this expense request form is wrong, the formatting isn’t aligned, and the paper itself has water stains…“And another thing, how many times have you applied for medic

Xavier openly wrapped his arms around Claire.However, Claire’s rage showed no signs of fading.“Gideon! What kind of attitude is that? Do you even know how long the PR team spent last night cleaning up the mess you caused and denying those rumors?“I never imagined you could be this sinister and cruel! You’d do anything just to ruin my and Xavier’s careers!“If I had known that making me keep the child was just your way of trapping me, I would never have softened my heart back then! I should have taken two pills of mifepristone and gotten rid of that wretched child. Then the whole world would have been at peace!”My heart felt as though a blade had pierced straight through it, only to be twisted around again and again until everything inside was shredded.The humiliation I had endured through nine years of secret marriage, the pain of losing my child, and the fury I felt as a father watching my daughter be insulted completely erased my remaining rationality.I stormed out of th

The entire room fell deathly silent.The fanboy supervisor turned around, stunned for a moment.He hurriedly brushed the ashes from his hands.“Miss Lane, what brings you here? Do you have another event you’d like us to host?”Claire’s face had gone ashen.Her eyes fell on the wreckage scattered across the floor and the shattered portrait on the offering table.In the photograph, the little girl was smiling innocently, clutching a tiny duck plushie in her hands.It was one of the few gifts Claire had ever brought home for Ellie.Of all her toys, Ellie loved that little duck the most.Perhaps it was because of the bond between mother and daughter.She carried it everywhere, refusing to let it out of her hands.During her teething phase, she would grab it, chew on it, and gnaw at it every single day.Claire stared at the photograph. Step by step, she staggered toward the offering table.Suddenly, her knees gave out, and she nearly collapsed.The fanboy supervisor and his fo

I became the internet’s new symbol of a scheming scumbag.Even the nurses who took care of me during my hospital stay treated me with obvious hostility.Every time they changed my IV needle, they used so much force.It was as though they would not be satisfied until they had completely destroyed my veins.After I was discharged, Claire immediately completed the divorce procedures with me, along with the money transfer and property transfer paperwork.After the $10 million arrived in my account, I quickly put our marital villa up for sale and converted it into another $20 million.Then, without delay, I repaid every cent I had borrowed from my relatives and friends.With a necklace made from Ellie’s ashes around my neck, and a reputation as a man everyone despised, I boarded a flight overseas.…Actually, before I became a talent manager, I had always had a pipe dream.I wanted to become a director.Unfortunately, my family was poor, and I could not afford to study filmmaking

There was only one woman on the screen.Her eyes were swollen red from crying as she held up her ID card.Facing the camera, she spoke loudly.“Everyone. My name is Zoe Grant. I am Mr. Xavier’s cousin. I previously worked as the finance supervisor at Crystal Wave Entertainment. “During my time there, Mr. Xavier repeatedly instructed me to withhold Gideon Spencer’s expense requests and alter the reasons for his applications. “He did this to make Miss Claire misunderstand Mr. Spencer and cause the breakdown of their marriage. I’d like to sincerely apologize to Mr. Gideon today! Please forgive me!”Xavier grabbed Claire’s shoulders and shook her desperately, trying to save himself. “Claire, listen to me! Let me explain! It’s not like that! She must have taken money from Gideon to frame me! Claire, you have to believe me!Claire pushed him away. “You were the one who told me to take away all of Gideon’s money in the first place. You said that if I did, he would only become more de
