All Chapters of Second Chance: I Won't Fail My Wife: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

A rule immediately flashed through my mind. It said, "You're not allowed to let your wife know that you've been reborn with your memories. If you do, you'll be considered to have forfeited this opportunity to change the past."I was instantly terrified, but I didn't have any time to think further because my wife, Ingrid Sanford, was already heading toward the door with her phone in her hands, checking the repair platform.I tried to open my mouth to call out to her, but only a muffled breath escaped my throat."Ah… No…"The car crash from six years ago had damaged the part of my brain responsible for speech. Left with the mind of a three-year-old, I could only repeat a few simple words. When I was frustrated, I would cry and wail, throw tantrums, and smash things onto the floor.Now, my mind had recovered, but my body was still as useless as ever. This made me extremely anxious and frustrated.Ingrid turned around when she heard me making a sound. She saw me glaring at the do

Ingrid immediately pressed the record button on the front door cam, making doubly sure that everything would be saved and recorded. However, the screen flickered twice and turned black.There was the sound of something breaking outside the door.Tyler had smashed the camera.Ingrid's face turned pale. She picked up the oxygen tank and tried to wheel me into the bedroom for safety. However, I kept my hand firmly on the wheelchair brakes.We couldn't go into the bedroom.In my past life, the first thing Tyler did after breaking into our house was unplug the CCTV camera in the living room before forcing Ingrid into the bedroom, where we didn't have a camera installed.I had to stay in the living room. We had to stay here, no matter what! Even if the court couldn't get a testimony out of me, the CCTV footage would be more than enough evidence to convict Tyler!Ingrid realized that the wheelchair wouldn't budge and hurriedly batted at my hand."Nick! Behave! We'll wait inside the be

Another crash came from outside the front security door, and Tyler panicked.He ignored me lying on the ground and dragged Ingrid into the access door behind the wardrobe. But Ingrid desperately clung to the sides of the door. She refused to let go, not at all caring that splinters were cutting into her hands."No! Nick is still inside!"Tyler kicked her in the back of her knees and finally dragged her into the dark utility access chamber.I tried to go after them, but I couldn't even get up, and the broken wheelchair was also overturned on its side. My legs were completely numb, and I couldn't lift my head or feel my right shoulder at all. I could only claw at the floor and drag myself forward, inch by inch, with all my might.Before I'd even made it halfway into the door, the board behind the wardrobe was closed up once more, and Ingrid's voice vanished into the darkness.I pressed my forehead against the cold floor, hating my paralyzed body to the extreme for the first time ev

After Tyler was taken into police custody, he refused to say a word at first.He believed that I couldn't testify against him properly and that Ingrid wouldn't be able to describe him because she would only have a hazy, vague figure to work with."The things in the van don't belong to me. Anyone could have put them inside to frame me. I'm just an honest repairman. She was the one who attacked me with the pepper spray first. I panicked and took her away with me."He even chuckled when he said this."As for the accident from six years ago… The case has already been closed long ago."He kept rubbing his handcuffed wrists as he spoke, his eyes darting from one side to another. The officers interrogating him didn't expose him on the spot. Instead, they just told him to tell his account of the story from that day.The first time, Tyler said that he only went into the apartment building in the afternoon. The second time, he said that he'd been having lunch nearby at that time.It hadn'
