《My Husband's Perfect Crime Starts With Me》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 10 章

Edward pointed at me, filled with rage. "You reminded me just this morning to stay away from the sliced bread on the table because the peanuts in it would trigger my allergy! Do you expect me to believe that you've forgotten about it? Do you take me for a fool, Maddie?"I crossed my arms and scoffed. "I have my allergy list posted right there on the kitchen wall, yet your mother said she forgot about my cilantro allergy. Is she taking me for a fool too? I've been meaning to ask something as well—why did you suddenly dismiss the housekeeper?"Edward looked away, avoiding my gaze. "I-It's because she wasn't good at her job."He was clearly worried that the housekeeper might get in the way and expose him after he killed me. That was fine with me, since I felt the same way about her getting in my way now.Mary snapped out of her stupor and finally called for an ambulance.I sat in a chair once we arrived at the hospital, feeling pretty good as I scrolled through my phone.Mary trembl

I watched Natalie caress her pregnant belly and suddenly remembered something. Edward seemed to have forgotten that he had fertility problems due to a low sperm count. I had never brought it up because I was afraid of embarrassing him. How could he have forgotten it himself?I picked up the bowl of soup I had diluted with toilet water and handed it to him. "It's all cooled down now. I kept it cool so that it wouldn't burn you, and I made it slightly diluted since the light flavor is better for healing your injuries."I stood up with satisfaction once Edward finished drinking it.Edward made a point to remind me before I left. "Larry is coming to Aveston to unwind, so make sure to spend some time with him, Maddie."I stayed behind instead of leaving, waiting quietly outside the hospital ward."Get me to the bathroom now! Hurry up!""Ouch! Don't touch my arm or leg! They're still broken!""That hurts!"I could hear the nurse, who was doing her rounds, gagging. "You can't just u

Upon hearing that, the neighbor exclaimed, "Have you lost your mind? We're only doing this for your own good!"In the end, no matter how loudly Victor and Mary protested, the police sirens still sounded downstairs. "What happened here? Who's the screaming man inside? Why is there such a strong smell of blood?""It's no one you need to worry about! It's a family matter that we can take care of ourselves!"Hearing the police officers' voices outside, Edward thought help had finally arrived. "Help! Please let the police come inside! Larry is hurting me! I'm so sorry, Maddie! Please save me!"Victor and Mary refused to believe it, convinced it was just Edward's way of throwing off suspicion. They were hell-bent on making sure that I was dead, so they did everything they could to block the police officers."We lost the keys! You'd better not break down our door. Otherwise, we'll file a complaint against all of you! How dare you push me! Is this how the police treat civilians now? How o

Edward's expression hardened the moment he heard the Lawsons' demands, as if he knew that meeting them would cost him everything he had.I pulled up a chair and sat down with a smile. "They might be asking for a lot, but they did lose Larry. Isn't it just money at the end of the day? How could it ever compare to a human life?"Larry's parents nodded in agreement. "You're absolutely right, Maddie. You're the only kind one here, unlike the rest of the Zucker family, who are all rotten to the core."I was indeed a kind person. I was the one who told them exactly how much money Edward had, after all.Edward seemed completely drained of all spirit once the Lawsons' demands were met. He just lay there on the bed in complete silence, staring blankly at the ceiling. He burst into a wild, hysterical laugh once he spotted me, the one who had dropped by to enjoy his misery."You've ruined me and left me with nothing, but I will get my revenge. It's a fight to the death between us now. I wo

Victor and Mary returned home once they had spent all their money on Edward's medical bills, only to find that the apartment had already been sold.They finally set aside their pride and called me, pleading with me to have mercy on Edward. "Edward may have mistreated you before, but after three years of marriage, your history together should outweigh the hurt he caused. "We've seen what kind of person Natalie really is now, so we know you're the one Edward should have treasured."I remained silent for a while as I listened. I had no idea what I had done to make them think I was so forgiving. I had always been the kind of person who held a grudge and got even.Mary was still trying to talk me into it when I got to the hospital. "You two are meant to be together. Edward has learned his lesson, so just patch things up already and go back to being happy together again, Maddie."I scoffed. "You're being utterly delusional—even daydreams are supposed to be somewhat realistic. I have
